Mum moved into Botham Hall Care Home in May 2024. After an initial two weeks of feeling unsure, Mum quickly settled down. She has been happy at the home, felt safe and secure. All the staff have treated her with care and kindness. We have been impressed with the standard of cleanliness in the home and how the staff treat residents with respect and kindness.

My mum was discharged to Botham Hall from the hospital in June 2022 in a very poor state healthwise. The staff at Botham Hall immediately enlisted medical assistance for her and nursed her back to health even though it took six months. My mum, even though she has dementia, praises the staff for their kindness and constantly tells me how happy she is, as am I. I can't praise this home and staff enough. I, too, appreciate their friendship and kindness.
Dear Julie, many thanks for taking the time to review our home. It is a privilege to be able to care for your Mum. Your kind words are greatly appreciated, and I will, of course, pass them on to the Botham Hall family.
We are kept up to date with all aspects of his care and his care plan is available to read whenever we should wish.
All areas of the home are clean and tidy and the decor and furnishings are modern, light and airy.
The staff, although always busy, take time to talk with the residents and the visitors and nothing is too much trouble.
The staff show a genuine interest in the residents and their families and although my dad's "new home" is Botham Hall, we feel like we are a part of that family too.
Dear Sarah, many thanks for taking the time to review our home. It is a pleasure to care for your dad. Your kind words are greatly appreciated and I will, of course, pass them on to the Botham Hall family.
My husband has been a resident at Botham Hall Care Home since June. When he first arrived (following a stay in hospital) he was withdrawn and non-verbal. However, after only a few weeks with the encouragement of the wonderful staff, he is now able to communicate and respond to simple questions. All the staff are really friendly and the interaction with both residents and visitors is second to none. Activities are available most days and everyone is encouraged to join in. The home is maintained to a very high standard, communal areas and bedrooms are well-decorated and very clean. I have complete confidence that Botham Hall provides a high quality of individualised support, personal and social care for my husband.
Dear Jennifer, many thanks for taking the time to review our home. It is a privilege to care for your husband and are thrilled at how he has settled in. Your kind words are greatly appreciated and I will of course pass them on to the Botham Hall family.
On day one, my mum was quite emotional and reactive. The staff dealt with her calmly and professionally. My mum settled in well after her initial teething problems. She can be a fussy eater and they are happy to offer alternatives. She always seems happy and in good spirits. She speaks about the staff in a really caring and loving way, comfortable in their company and happy to be helped by them. The staff are always happy to pass information and updates on to me. They are honest and above all else, they genuinely "care".
Dear Fiona, many thanks for taking the time to review our home. It is a pleasure to care for your mum and we are delighted that she has settled in so well. Your kind words are greatly appreciated and I will, of course, pass them on to the Botham family.
The care of my father is exceptional. Constant updates and working together with the home, I know my dad is safe and well cared for, this, for me, is such a sense of relief. Thank you so much Botham Hall Care Home.
It is our pleasure to care for your dad and are delighted that him being with us gives you peace of mind. Your kind words are greatly appreciated and I will of course pass them on to the Botham Hall team.
The atmosphere at Botham Hall Care Home is usually peaceful (although I'm told it can be quite hectic at times!) and welcoming. The home is clean and tidy and nicely decorated. The staff are very friendly and always have time to talk to relatives if needed. Relatives meetings are held regularly where issues (if any) are raised and future plans discussed. My sister is very happy at Botham Hall and is very well looked after. Thank you to all the staff.
Many thanks for taking the time to review our home. It is our privilege and pleasure to care for your sister and we are delighted that your experience is a positive one. Your kind words are greatly appreciated and I will of course pass them on to the Botham family.
My mother has been a resident at Botham Hall for several years and in all of that time she has always received excellent care from the staff. The staff are exceptional and always go beyond their duties to make sure she was happy. The care home is spotlessly clean plus the food is excellent. My mother has recently passed away on 6th April 2023 and whilst me and all my family members were in and out of the home at all times. The members of staff could not do enough for us or my mother. In fact, three members of staff were with me when my mother passed away and I would like to say a big thank you to them all who at all times went above and beyond with the care of my mother, at that time. Thank you.
Dear Karen, many thanks for taking the time to review our home. We are so sorry for your loss. It was our pleasure to care for your mum and she is missed greatly by the Botham Hall family. Your kind words are greatly appreciated and I will of course share these with the team.
My mother has been at Botham Hall since the 7th of June 2022, and it is by far the best home I have seen. She has been cared for by all the staff, and I cannot thank them enough. The best care I could have dreamed of.
Dear Stephen, many thanks for taking the time to review our home. It is our pleasure to care for your mum. Your kind words are greatly appreciated, and I will, of course, pass them on to the manager and the Botham Hall family.
Lovely care home, located a short distance from Milnsbridge, overlooking fields and woods. Very quiet area. All rooms and communal areas are maintained to a very high standard. Spotlessly clean throughout. There is a nice secure garden area to the front which is lovely to sit out in with Mum in the summer. Rooms are nicely decorated and of a high standard. We always struggled to get Mum to eat and generally look after herself prior to arrival. But within a few short weeks, had improved dramatically and looked a lot more well. The food is of a high standard and always smells lovely. All the staff are very friendly and have a great sense of humour. Mum has quite advanced dementia now, but I feel she is very well looked after and with the utmost dignity and compassion. The staff do a very good job of keeping me informed and up to date on Mums' condition and will let me know if she needs anything. Overall, I don't think I could have chosen a better care home for Mum.
Many thanks for taking the time to review our home. It is our privilege to care for your Mum. Your kind words are greatly appreciated, and I will, of course, pass them on to the manager and the Botham Hall team.
The food is very good.
Rooms and facilities are very clean and have a home-from-home feel.
Relatives of the residents are made to feel welcome and are kept well informed.
Many thanks for taking the time to review our home. It is our privilege to care for your mother-in-law. Your kind words are greatly appreciated, and I will, of course, pass them on to Christien and the Botham Hall team.
I have been very impressed by the staff's responsiveness to my mother-in-law's changing needs and by the way, they have kept my wife informed about her health issues and emotional state, regularly taking on board my wife's opinions and concerns. Above all, I have been extremely impressed by the quality of the relationships between staff and residents. A stable and very able staff seem to be at the core of these relationships. They are superb.
Dear Michael, Many thanks for taking the time to review our home. All feedback is welcomed and allows us to continually develop our service. Your kind words are greatly appreciated and I will of course pass them to the Botham Hall family.
Everything in the care home is first class. The carers are really nice and kind, even to visitors (I could even move in myself). No complaints at all.
Many thanks for taking the time to review our home. All feedback is welcomed and allows us to continually develop our service. Your kind words are greatly appreciated and I will of course pass them to the Botham Hall family.
