Overall Experience
Thank you Scott, the manager of Crofton Court Care Home Blyth for a making a special day possible for my mother.
Mam had a lovely 98th birthday with her friends enjoying a beautiful cake, candles and balloons. Later that day, as a suprise, she was taken out in her wheelchair for a meal of fish and chips in her favourite chippy. The whole day was organized by the activities coordinator, Ellise.

Mam really enjoyed her special day, thanks again.

Overall Experience

My mum moved into Crofton Court for respite care initially and was very keen to get home. After only a few weeks, my mum has visibly improved and has now decided she wants to stay in the home. She feels very safe and well looked after and enjoys the company of all the staff. Couldn't recommend highly enough.

Overall I have been pleasantly impressed by the care home. The staff are all lovely and very caring. My mam is generally happy here which I didn't think would be possible bearing in mind my mam's dementia.

Review from M F (Husband of Resident) published on 3 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My wife was admitted to Crofton Court in December 25 when I could no longer care for her at home because she was in the later stages of dementia. She had been in the care home previously for respite care and I was confident that they could meet her needs. I was not wrong because the care she received in my opinion was excellent particularly when she was put on the end of life pathway. I was amazed at how the home staff worked with the local GP practice and the community nursing service to ensure that her dignity was maintained, and that she was pain free and comfortable at all times. Lastly the staff went out of there way to support me and my family both practically with refreshments and emotionally when my wife passed away.

Overall Experience

I visit my wife regular in the home it certainly went down hill from her first going in became dirty and untidy in all respects, however I have noticed a vast improvement over the last few months since getting a new manager. The staff have always been very good pleasant kind helpful however there is always the odd one that isn't. I think my only wish now is for painting decorating done on each room.

Review from K W (Son of Resident) published on 9 February 2026 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My mother was totoally against going into a home even though she suffers with dementia but after a stroke which took away her speech we were told by the consultant she would need 24/7 care. From the first visit I was very impressed by the staff who can not do enough for her and the way she has settled and slowly regaining some words in her speech is down to how much time they have spent encouraging her. From being very apprehensive about putting her in a home I now recommend Crofton Court to everyone I talk to.

Our experience of Crofton Court is excellent. My mam has settled in really well, she is happy and safe and that means everything to our family. The staff go over and above to make her feel we come and part of a family. We have the utmost respect and affection for them. Its lovely to see and hear all about the activities she has engaged in, and enjoyed. Nothing is too much trouble- for mam and for us when we visit- thank you!

I was admitted in October, as soon as I came into the home it felt very friendly and looked nice and clean. My bedroom is a nice size for me. The staff are all very friendly. I felt at home straight away. Staff regularly pop into my room to see if I'm ok and enjoy our chats. Really happy here.

Review from G M (Son of Resident) published on 30 January 2026 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My mother has been a resident at Crofton Court for approximately 9 months and in that time I have nothing but praise for the entire staff who conduct themselves with the utmost professionalism, but still find the time to interact socially with the residents and visitors alike. Nothing is too much trouble for them. My mother not only enjoys being looked after but also the social side of things such as craft workshops, bingo, exercise classes, all of which she participates in. In summary, a real home-from-home feel. Well done, Crofton Court.

Review from Claire M (Relative of Resident) published on 9 December 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

As a family we believe Scott the new manager will do amazing. The home itself has fabulous staff but needs a deep clean & painted from top to bottom. Both of which I've addressed, been told will be done ASAP. It's great to see everyone happy, residents & staff. It wasn't for a little while, as a family we see the changes coming. This settles us too. Treasure the fabulous staff.

I am very happy here in Crofton Court. The staff are excellent, very friendly and caring. The food is very good and I have a great choice, even if I want food off the menu, there is no problem, they do their best to help.
They take me out and also take me for my hospital visits.

I wouldn't want to be anywhere else.
