Very lovely and friendly people working in Glenhome, who cannot do enough for you to reassure you that your parent is in safe hands and cared for. My mum took just over two weeks to settle, but with her dementia she now sees Glenhome as her home and loves it. What more could you ask for. The well run kitchen provides a balanced diet, so much so, my mother put on half a stone in the first two weeks of staying. That just goes to show how much we were struggling to look after our mother in her own home. Natasha the manager is always available for queries and is very knowledgeable on all the problems you believe you face. She's seen it all before and shares her experience, love and care. A simply brilliant home. Thank you all.

I have been blown away by the care shown to my Dad since he moved into Glenholme, in Nov 2025. From the very first meeting, the team showed a holistic approach to his care, including supporting all of us through the transition. The team have turned what was a gut wrenching decision to have to make, into a positive and seamless experience. Every aspect of my Dad's care gets excellent attention, from ensuring he's dressed smartly to dealing with serious medical emergencies. They've also taken the time to get to know him as an individual - from what he likes to eat ( he loves the food!) , to engaging him in SAFC banter. The team also look after my Mam when she visits - providing practical and emotional support. The atmosphere in the home is welcoming, with lots of chat and laughter, and has the feeling of a home, not an institution. This makes all the difference. Knowing he is in such a supportive and warm environment brings real peace of mind. Forever thankful.

I cant praise Glenhome enough. They have been so caring with my mum. I have no worries her staying there. They phone me to let me know if anything wrong. They got her straight to hospital when she took a bad turn. They do so many nice activities with the residence. The place is always super clean .

My Dad went into Glenholme House following a spell in hospital which meant he was unable to return home. The manager went well beyond what was required to help me to navigate the care system which is lacking in general advice and proves to be very stressful. I would like to thank her for her time,...

We had to place my dad into care only 2 weeks ago, and Glenholme was by far the best choice we could have made. Two weeks isn't a long time, but this review is absolutely well deserved, and probably would just become more glowing as time went on! All of the staff are so friendly - nothing is a...
