On arrival at care home we are always greeted by friendly staff. Everyone says hello or goodbye. If there are any issues with family member we are told about it on arrival, or get a phone call its its a day we don't visit.

The care given to my wife during 2 1/2 years at Garden House, including end of life care, has been outstanding. I would have no hesitation in recommending this home to others.

My mum spent 8 months in Garden House with dementia before passing away peaceful. The staff were exceptional showing my mum, myself and family such warmth and care through a difficult time. Nothing was ever too much trouble and we alway felt that mum was treated with dignity and respect, the carers really did care and were kind and understanding. I would not hesitate to recommend.

Mum was only in the care home for 5 months but in that time she was looked after very well by all the staff. She was reluctant to go into care, but once there she never complained and enjoyed all the activities provided, the sing-a-long and entertainers were her favourites. In the home, she had...

I'm not sure I can find the right words to express our thanks, gratitude, appreciation for the wonderful care and love you gave Mum over the past 7 years. You were her 2nd family Mum didn't settle very well when she came in for respite care but once it was time for permanent care and Garden House became her new home. There was a marked difference in her persona, the sparkle in her eyes returned. She loved having people around her, loved the musical entertainment and the animals (fearless handling some of those creepy crawlies...if only she knew. New experiences none the less). Dad was immensely grateful to see Mum so settled, loved & cared for, visiting whenever he wanted yet able to leave knowing she was looked after & wasn't distressed. My siblings & I are also extremely appreciative for the sheer love & dedication you gave um and the support & friendliness you showed us all over the years. We are profoundly thankful to you all!

We recently lost our father who had been a resident of Garden House for nearly a year. Words are not enough to express our gratitude to all members of staff, carers, cleaners, chefs and management who over those 10 months made Dad's life as comfortable as anyone could have. From staff popping their heads around his door and saying a simple hello, how are you today, to the full-on care seeing to his everyday needs. Dad was given the care, attention and empathy with staff going above and beyond, with management giving support after our father's passing to me which was a great help. A great team.

My mum has only been in Garden House for about a month, but my first impressions are that the staff are kind, caring and frequently go that extra mile to deliver person-centred care. My other half is an experienced carer in another local care home and is very impressed by the way Garden House is run; especially seeing how involved the manager is in delivering care to the residents on a day-to-day basis. The place is bright and cheerful. My mum is impressed with the size of her room and it’s lovely outlook. We are hoping she’ll enjoy many happy times there.

I'm still impressed by the level and standard of care for my wife at Garden House after two years. The home is always welcoming and clean, the staff kindly, so patient, cheerful and compassionate and the management excellent. There is no question that the residents are well looked after, with complete respect for their dignity and needs. Recently, I have joined my wife regularly for evening meals and even my vegan diet is catered for. As a family, we're so pleased we chose this home for my wife's care. Well done to the manager and all the staff!

Mum really enjoys the activities and is a willing participant in anything musical. Her room is lovely with plenty of room and an en-suite bathroom. I cannot believe how easy she has settled into her new surroundings, that is through the kind and caring staff. Well done Garden House.

We are going through a difficult period with Mum's dementia and overall care but the home has been excellent in supporting my mum. We have held a series of meetings and made some changes to the room, her routines and overall interaction with the staff.

The caring approach to the residents is one of a gentle, loving, personal touch. My brother is always cared for physically and appears very happy.
