My husband has complex needs and is looked after by the amazing and caring staff at Orchard Mews. He often has to attend appointments at local hospitals, which is quite a feat given that he cannot walk and patient ambulances are used. The staff ensure all medication he needs is with him, and...
Everyone, without exception, is extremely kind to him and myself, he recently had to stay a few nights in hospital and "just wanted to get home" and looks a lot better since getting home.
Thank you for your kind words about the team and our Home. We'll be sure to share this with them. Thank you again.

Seeing my aunt so well looked after gives our family real peace of mind. Thank you to the whole team for everything you do. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Orchard Mews to anyone looking for excellent care.
Thank you very much for taking the time to leave such a lovely review. We appreciate any feedback and I will ensure this is passed to the whole team.
I can honestly say that the team at Orchard Mews went above and beyond in their care for my brother. He was left quite debilitated by a stroke and could be quite challenging at times, but, he was cared for with great dignity and respect. The kindness of the whole team was exceptional. The only...
I can honestly say that the team at Orchard Mews went above and beyond in their care for my brother. He was left quite debilitated by a stroke and could be quite challenging at times, but, he was cared for with great dignity and respect. The kindness of the whole team was exceptional. The only reason he left orchard Mews was to be closer to family and friends. I cannot thank everyone enough for their support and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this care home.
Thank you very much for your feedback and Kind words, The team work extremely hard to provide personalised high quality care,We all wish you both well in the future.

My dad is well cared for here. The staff are lovely. The home is always clean and doesn't smell at all. The food is home cooked. The staff make sure there's something going on weekly and often take residents out if they wish. I feel really happy with my dad living here.

when she had to stay at OM for emergency respite care after a flood at her property, we had no concerns about asking if there was availability as her sister is currently a resident there, The whole team were so lovely and made her stay during a very unsettling time for her and us so much easier.

My Dad was a resident at Orchard Mews from January 2024 until he passed away there in October 2025. As a family we are so grateful to all the wonderful staff who looked after Dad so well, and who were also really supportive to the whole family. It isn't possible to put into words how important it is to a family to know that your loved one is being properly looked after and describe the peace of mind it gives when you know they are in the best possible place. We got all that from Dad's time Orchard Mews and we will never forget how much they did for him. A wonderful caring home, who also responded with such professionalism at the times when he had acute medical needs.
Staff are lovely. My auntie can't move/isn't mobile enough to take part in all the activities but Orchard Mews do all they can to include her in everything. Her sister visits regularly and the staff always make us more than welcome.

I can't believe how supportive the staff have been, it has been a very stressful time choosing the right place for my Dad but I know I have now chosen the right care home.

After a previous nightmare journey through adult social care system, I can't praise this home enough. Claire, the manager, is kind, welcoming and incredibly quick to respond to any issues and very understanding that strong emotions can be involved in these incidents, all of which have been resolved. I see my dad sustained weight, stay more cognitive and because of this, I get a few more moments to make him laugh, and I will always be grateful to them. I look forward to my day to see Claire, Gillian, who creates moments out of nothing - like my own job and she i's an incredible driver of fun and amusement for residents, which she continuously tries to include everyone. Lyn and I forgot a cleaning lady's name, they are both a joy and so thorough. Barry is just kind and great at his job, and Dorcas, of course. All of this adds up to me looking forward to seeing my dad, and I can rest knowing he is cared for.
I shall be deeply grateful to all the staff at Orchard Mews for the rest of my life. Quite simply they cared for my mother in a way that anyone could possibly hope for when entrusting the life of their loved ones to others. I was told that my mother had become "one of the family" at Orchard Mews...
I am full of admiration for how hard the staff work. Yet their approach is gentle, kind, respectful and caring.
It is so sad to watch your loved one approach the end of life but there was fun and laughter and uplifting love shown throughout to my mother and to myself.
I can face the rest of my life with the confidence that my mother received the best possible care for the last one and a half years of her life.
The staff made that all-important difference. They are special people. Thank you for everything.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a positive review of our home at this difficult time, please accept our sincere condolences to you and your family. We will ensure your kind words are shared with the team. Thank you again for your review
The staff are always pleasant when I visit. I have recently enjoyed joining her for Valentine dine with loved one, followed by entertainment. It means so much that they involve the family and we continue to make spread memories.

This care home has a lot of activities for the residents and really makes an effort to have a variety of things going on.
My mam suffers from dementia so she is probably unaware of what is happening a lot of the time but they really make sure that the dementia residents join in with everything that is going on if they want to.
My father's needs have been excellently managed by both management and staff, ensuring his safety and wellbeing.

I think I have met and talked to most of the staff who I find very friendly and who I see doing their jobs really well. This care home is very clean, tidy and well looked after. Meals are presented beautifully and there are always assorted drinks. Rooms are really bright, warm and comfortable. Lady manager I see visiting patients regularly having conversations.
