St John's House

Our family is very grateful for the facility and above all for the wonderful staff!

All the staff at St. John's are exceptional and caring and go above and beyond and could not praise them enough. It is a wonderful environment for my mum and she is so happy and we couldn't have made a better choice for her to stay somewhere which is like home from home.

St John's is one of the best care homes I have been in. The staff are amazing, and the care they give the residents is outstanding they really go the extra mile for all their residents. My mum was very unsure about going into care she has now been there for over five years now and loves it.

Mum loves music and singing. We originally looked at St John's because it once had the oldest choir (in a Book of World Records)! If there was anything we could change it would be to start another choir!

When visiting my mother during the past year I have observed the staff to be well-led, professional, and very caring. The rooms and other parts of the Home are comfortable and always very clean; the food looks delicious, nutritious, and plentiful. Visitors are welcomed and the staff are always very approachable. There are generally daily activities arranged for residents who wish to participate. The staff works very hard to maintain the excellent standard it has achieved.

My mother has been a resident at St John's Care Home for well over six years. I have visited regularly at different times and found the staff very pleasant and helpful. My mother is certainly content and well cared for. The home is spotless and the food is good. I am very pleased with the care my mother has received.

Mum has been a resident at St John's for a year now and is very happy. Everywhere is spotlessly clean and the grounds are beautifully tended. All the staff genuinely care for the residents and are always happy to help in any way they can. Mum particularly enjoys the daily activities both exercise and craft sessions.

Friendly and caring staff in a warm and welcoming home from home. The care that Mum receives is exemplary - not only from the front-of-house staff but from everyone on the team - housekeeping, catering, maintenance, etc. Nothing is too much trouble. We are delighted that we found such a safe and beautiful home. The garden and patio are a delight which Mum appreciates.

An excellent caring environment where the staff provide thoughtful and tailored support to the residents. A professional and experienced team of staff give confidence that the individual needs of residents are being considered and fulfilled.

I would have no hesitation in recommending St Johns and if my auntie needs any other respite I would certainly rebook.

Just had my mother’s annual review and want to express how delighted we are with the quality of service and care she receives at St John's. We and Mum are so happy she resides there - we could not ask for anything better.

All residents seem happy and content and feel like they are at home.

This was my first visit to St John's for a week’s respite care. I had a very good experience and will be very happy to stay again in the future. The home was very comfortable and the staff did everything they could to make my stay an enjoyable one. The food was good and the activities were excellent. It was especially nice to be able join the other residents for their Christmas lunch. The home is surrounded by lovely gardens which I look forward to seeing more of in the better weather. Although the lift was out of order during my stay, the staff made sure that this did not affect me in any way. I returned home with a greater feeling of independence as I felt safe and secure walking longer distances than I am able to do in my bungalow. This positive outcome was unexpected but very welcome.

I cannot recommend St John’s House too highly. It’s a fabulous place and we have been delighted to be associated with it.

As this was my first experience of "care home life", I was a bit apprehensive. However, I need not have worried. The staff are very friendly and supportive, providing help where needed while also encouraging independence. Breakfast was usually taken in my room, and other meals were in one of the several dining rooms. The food was excellent. There were several lounges and seating areas as well as lovely gardens outside. The staff organised activities too - chairs, carpet bowls, and sometimes a quiz. Since it was Coronation time, we had a party! In conclusion - all good.

We, as a family, are very happy that our dad is safe, very well fed and cared for by very caring and professional staff.

Excellent staff, excellent care, and great procedures during the pandemic. Mum loves the food (I've tried it too - it is good). Lovely atmosphere, many and varied activities and a loving and positive environment.

My mother has been a resident of St John's for nearly three years now. She regularly comments on how kind the staff are. Mum is happy, warm and comfortable and enjoys her meals. A wide variety of activities are on offer to residents if they wish to take part.

Fantastic! My father has recently been at St John's for two weeks respite care. The whole experience was very positive. All the staff were very welcoming and a great deal of effort was put into making him feel part of the home. He was included in all the extra Christmas festivities, including a meal out at the local pub, alongside all the regular activities, such as quizzes, indoor bowls, exercise classes and much more. Similarly, the standard of care was very good and Dad particularly enjoyed the food too. Many, many thanks to all at St John's, you're doing an amazing job.

If you are looking for the best place for your loved one, look no further.
