Headingley Hall Care Home

It's probable the first thing you will notice is that the building is secure, but your access is easy because reception is staffed slightly longer than normal working day, & receptionist is alert & has sight of the door-you feel welcome.

All the staff at Headingley Hall have been very welcoming and caring towards my husband, and have supported me as well, as we both adjust to our new situation. I've really appreciated the attention given to my husband's specific needs and being flexible in facilitating him to carry on with as many of his previous activities with friends and family as possible.

Headingley Hall provides a very high standard of accommodation, with some spatious and homely bedrooms and a choice of sitting rooms, both quiet and gregarious. The gardens, front and rear are colourful and well maintained, and are a great asset . My father received some wonderful care whilst living at Headingley Hall. The staff have been very loving and caring. There is an excellent ethos and good teamwork. A high proportion have been giving loyal service for many years, which is very much appreciated. Highly recommended.

My father moved to Headingley Hall at the start of 2023 with my mother, who passed away not long after.

Dad settled in enjoying the friendly approach and atmosphere created by staff and fellow residents. The time that staff took talking to him and providing care beyond just physical needs meant a lot to him. His room had a view over the front garden and he loved watching the birds there arranging for a bird table to be set up with the help of the team.

As memory and mobility declined, the care expanded. It was unfailingly kind and matched to his state of health. I was kept updated on the care team's assessment of his condition and on the one occasion when he did need to go to hospital they helped me significantly.

Dad died quietly at the end of February 2026. When the end came, that deep care, love and support extended to me, as it had done when Mum died.

Thank you to all the team for the way they tended to his needs, kept his eyes twinkling and his spirits up, right to the end.

We couldn't be any happier as a family with the choice we have made .

Dad entered Headingley Hall in February 2023, having previously lived in Barnsley. We moved him up to Leeds as both his sons & family live here, myself living 10 minutes walk away. Dad had dementia & severe hearing loss & mobility issues.

In his first 12 months at Headingley Hall he was able to enjoy the lovely outdoor spaces & he had his own patio area, as he always enjoyed the sunlight. He was popular with residents & staff, who all really loved him.

As his dementia progressed he spent more time in his room, but was still enjoying the activities in the lounge on his better days. The care team did a great job managing his increased needs & worked well with Adult Social Care & his GP to make sure he was getting the best care possible.

Sadly Dad passed away in January 2026 of dementia, in hospital. I can only thank all the team at Headingley Hall for everything they did for my Dad in the twilight of his life. He is hugely missed not just by us, but by the dedicated staff.

There were always knowledgeable staff available to reassure us if we had concerns or questions and we were always treated with great respect.

I have always spoken very highly about staff and everything at Headingley Hall, always recommending that it is a home that should be looked at when considering a care home.

My sister and I are delighted with the care, comfort, welcome and services provided for residents and visitors alike. The common areas and gardens are beautiful and well-maintained and the staff always stop to greet residents there, as well as checking on them frequently if they are in their rooms. Communication with family is efficient and quick and the admin/managment team is clearly very effective, while the are staff are patient and kind. There is a wide range of activities and trips as well as birthday celebrations. I am looking forward to visiting my mother there over Christmas.

My husband spent 5 days in respite just before Xmas. It was a very difficult decision for myself to let him go but during a visit I was reassured by how friendly, welcoming and understanding the staff were. First impressions were very good. Headingley Hall is spotlessly clean, with a warm, inviting atmosphere. The staff couldn't have been any nicer and after visiting several care homes, this was by far the nicest. If my husband needs respite in the future, I wouldn't hesitate to let him stay there again.

When he left the home his health had improved considerably, because of all the staffs care and expertise.

They all went above and beyond for her care and I am so gratefull to all the staff.

I can recommend Headingley Hall to any family needing a care home for a loved one

I had to make the difficult decision to find a care home for my dad six months ago, and was really worried about how he'd settle in and how well he'd be looked after. Six months in, it's like a huge weight has been lifted and I can be a daughter again, rather than a carer. I know my dad is safe and well looked after - he's always clean and smartly dressed. The staff are lovely - I chose Headingley Hall partly because so many of the staff have worked there for a long time and they really do seem to care about the wellbeing of their residents. There are daily activities - dad really enjoys the singing and cinema trips. Communication with the home is excellent - I enjoy getting the weekly updates, and if the staff have any concerns they contact me straight away. They've taken the time to get to know dad as a person and accommodate his interests. The food is fantastic and served in a lovely communal dining room. Whenever I go to visit I always feel welcome - it was the right move for us.

After arriving from hospital on the 2nd Nov, I didn't know what to expect, never having had respite care in the past. I needn't have worried since I was treated with the utmost respect and compassion by all of the staff, residents and those like myself receiving treatment. Headingley Hall is a beautiful building, and I knew it generally receives an outstanding rating, and rightly so; I would have no qualms of returning at some late date.

The care and compassion shown to my wife by every member of the Headingley Hall care family has been second to none. The friendliness and acceptance of all the residents is a real joy to behold. I visit almost daily and I can see that every resident is regarded as an individual. They are spoken to, listened to and cared for in a way that would be difficult to match within any other care organisation. I chose this care home through reputation which has always been second to none.

Care of my aunt seems very good and she was recently, successfully, shepherded through a Covid infection. The staff seem kind and alert and my aunt enjoys going on trips out which seem sell organized and quite frequent. Communications with the family and visitors is excellent. We are very pleased to have found Headingley Hall Care Home.

The dementia team took over seamlessly when I was no longer able to care of my wife at home. Their dedication and care in a challenging environment goes beyond a star rating. What is pleasing is the extra provision of activities and stimulation which extends the boundaries beyond the confines of the dementia suite.

Our mother was resident in Headingly Hall for 4 yrs. She went for 2 weeks respite care but settled in so well and was so happy, we made her a permanent resident. Prior to Mum's stay we spoke to other relatives, who told us how good the care was and how happy their relative was living there. Mum embraced life to the full in Headingly Hall, she participated in all the events and activities, she particularly enjoyed the music, crafts, bingo, dancing events, and trips to the theatre. She was loved and cared for by all the staff, including catering and admin staff and along with care staff, they became like a second family to her. When we visited her we were welcomed warmly by staff, who cared about us as well as Mum. In Mum's last days she was cared for at Headingly Hall and we were supported wonderfully as we stayed at her side. Staff brought us drinks, meals and kind words, supporting us as well as Mum. We cannot thank the manager and the team enough for everything they did for Mum and for us
