My father has taken, and totally unexpected being very very independent, to being in the home like a duck to water, i think its the attention he receives and the company he gets from both the other residents and all the staff.
Thank you for your wonderful review. We will pass on your comments to our staff who will be pleased to hear them. We love having your father as much as he loves being here - he has settled into our family here at Emmaus extremely well and you can tell he is happy and comfortable.
Mum is in the best place for her needs and...
All at Emmaus house do not realise how much pressure has been taken away from the family during this major change for our Mum

The staff have been absolutely brilliant from day one. They obviously care so much for their residents. They have taken time to really get to know them and go above and beyond to make dad feel at home. I was super sensitive to any indication dad wasn't doing well but I've had nothing but reassurance that dad is very well cared for. He is contented and looks really well. He loves sitting in the conservatory which looks out across the fields and in to the fells. There are loads of activities for residents, trips out, and there's a real sense of community. The atmosphere there is always very relaxed. The bible studies and services are especially important to dad. I wouldn't consider any other home for dad.
Thank you for your lovely review. We are here to make our residents feel like they are in a "home from home" and it sounds like your dad is enjoying his new surroundings. We try and make each day as varied as possible so that everyone can participate if they wish to.
A fantastic care home. The home is modern and clean, and the staff are brilliant. The recently refurbished lounge is a lovely homely room, with comfortable seating and different flexible areas for watching TV, chatting in small groups or with visiting family and friends, but is easily transformed...
I would highly recommend Emmaus House to anyone looking for a care home for a family member.
Thank you so much for your kind review. We are also over the moon with our new lounge/dining area - our family members have had lots of positive things to say about it. We also love our armchair travel days! Everyone loves to have their "passport" stamped and are always excited to see where we are going next!

Julie and her team are amazing. The care and compassion shown to residents is second to none. Our Aunt is thriving in the home and the food is delicious! We have even had Sunday lunch in the home with our Aunt and it was exceptional. The activities over the festive period have been lovely and very well thought out. From the moment you walk through the door you experience a warm welcoming buzz. The team work very well together and all really are amazing individuals . Thank you so much for looking after our Aunt and giving her the dignity that our older generation deserve.

Thank you for your kind words. We are blessed to have your auntie with us - she is a pleasure to care for and we are lucky to have her. We are delighted to hear that she is receiving excellent care here at Emmaus House and its always great to see you on your visits.
When I visit always clean and staff pleasant and food looks tasty and tables set nicely and with napkins. It is a lovely place to live in when you can not manage in your own home.
