It was necessary for my husband to have some respite care. He wasn't keen to go into care - even for a short while. However, having spent 2 weeks at Hastings Court, he is a complete convert. He was treated exceptionally well by all. The manager is outstanding and clearly ensures that her staff are...
There is such a warm and friendly atmosphere. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to enjoy the food, but what I saw during my visit looked fresh and appetising.
Well done, Hastings Court.

This is the second time my mum has stayed at Hastings Court for respite. Mum was happy and socialised with other clients, and engaged in the activities which are appropriate for her age.

I want to be clear: this isn't about every carer at Hastings Court. Some genuinely try. The real problem is the management, who run this place like a business first, with care coming a distant second. My father's experience exposed serious failings - inconsistent basic care, poor monitoring, long waits for help, and constant contradictions when we raised concerns. As soon as his needs became slightly more complex, the tone changed and it felt like they wanted him gone rather than supported.
What's even more concerning is their online behavior: I tried sharing honest feedback on a social media platform, but Hastings Court deletes negative comments and reviews, giving families a false sense of security. The glossy marketing hides a very different reality.
If you're considering this home, look beyond the curated image - our family's experience was deeply distressing, cumulated into a safeguarding case with the LA which is documented with the CQC.
I wouldn't want anyone else to go through the same,
Thank you for the review of your fathers respite stay. All feedback is appreciated and helps to support ongoing service development.
Our Grandma regularly visits Hastings Court for respite. We always receive a warm welcome and the staff always go above and beyond to make her feel at home. We would highly recommend Hastings Court to friends and family.

Hastings Court, provided to my Auntie, Anastasia, the best and friendliest care possible over a sadly, too short but very difficult time! I cannot recommend this nursing home highly enough. I could go on but it is honestly unnecessary, Hastings court are first class in every department!

Hastings Court was my aunt's final and most definitely the most luxurious home she had. The care, the love, the kindness she received was just superb. As her niece, I was also very well cared for and carers, nurses, everyone were so kind. My only regret was that she wasn't at Hastings Court...
Hastings Court was my aunt's final and most definitely the most luxurious home she had. The care, the love, the kindness she received was just superb. As her niece, I was also very well cared for and carers, nurses, everyone were so kind. My only regret was that she wasn't at Hastings Court earlier. Thank you all so very much.

My friend then got brought down to me in the bistro area where we were both invited to join in with the quiz which was about to start in an adjoining room.
To my amazement the quiz was really good fun and all the residents there were obviously having a really good afternoon and were waited on with nothing being too much trouble.
I then took my friend back up to his room which was a lovely room nice, bright, clean and fresh. Every member of staff who we passed in the corridor said hello and we were again asked if I would like any drinks or snacks from a lady with a really impressive tea trolly.
The visit to this home completely astonished me and my opinions on the card home industry.
Absolutely amazing place.

The entertainment is superb, and a lot of effort goes into making each day a happy one from the lifestyles team.
The manager and maintenance team have made sure that my mum's room is a home from home, which is lovely and much appreciated. I am made to feel very welcome with every visit I make to see my mum and by all the staff! Thank you!

This is a truly outstanding home. Having dealt with two other care homes and also an in home care firm previously, Hastings Court knocks socks off them. It is very clear that they are there to provide what they advertise, unlike previous people we have dealt with and that is priceless. We have two family friends as residents and the peace of mind is immense. We know that they are getting all the care they need and the staff could not be nicer. They go above and beyond. I cannot recommend Hastings Court highly enough. If you want your loved ones to be given the care and attention they deserve then look no further.

We are delighted with the care at Hastings Court. The staff are all cheerful, friendly, positive and very helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. My mother recently celebrated her 98th birthday and we had a small family tea party. We had exclusive use of the entertainment room for this. It was beautifully prepared with cloths, place settings, flowers, balloons, and full afternoon tea. There was a cake with mum's name on it and we could stay as long as we liked! Thanks especially to three members of the team for this. Mum has improved since coming here.
Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. We're glad you enjoyed the party!
The staff, from management to cleaning staff could not be more polite and helpful. Could not recommend this care home any higher.

Thank you so much for your kind words. It is very much appreciated by us.
My mother was made welcome from the moment she arrived. Whilst her health was deteriorating rapidly, the staff made every effort to keep her comfortable. Although her stay at Hastings Court was only a short one. I cannot fault the care and attention of the staff, right up to her passing.

Hastings Court offered wonderful care to Gran for the last seven years of her life. Living with dementia, her memory was limited but she still wanted to have a purpose in life. She was supported to play her role in the home, often helping to serve refreshments, folding towels and sporting her own...
In her final days, the wonderful staff supported us as her family as much as they did Gran, showing care and ensuring she lived those final days with dignity. The care extended from staff in the hospitality and facilities teams, as much as it did from care and nursing staff. Thank you so much.

My first job in the care sector started 30 years ago, and despite exploring other career choices, I have always returned to doing what I love the most. I have been part of the Hastings Court family since 2015, and I feel extremely proud to be a member of the management team in such a fabulous home.
I feel incredibly passionate about our residents receiving the best possible care during their time with us, and all of our team members go above and beyond every day to ensure that this happens.
Seeing our residents doing the things that they love is such a treat for us all, from days out fishing, trips to the theatre or just a walk around the Old Town browsing through the antique shops, it’s sometimes the little things that count the most.

I started at Hastings Court in 2015. Before this, I worked in a small charity-run home for adults with learning disabilities for eight years. I started as a part-time Care Assistant whilst at college to study for my level 5 in Health and Social Care. I have progressed from Care Assistant to Team Leader, then Community Lead, and I am now deputy manager at Hastings Court. I love my job at Hastings Court. I enjoy the daily interaction I have with residents and staff. I feel proud to be able to support the team in helping them achieve their goals and create the best environment for our residents to live in. In my spare time, I play netball and love watching my son play football.

My job is so varied and that's what I love about it! I support not only the home in general with all aspects of home care, plumbing, décor etc but help residents and their families to personalise their rooms.Lately, I have been very involved with the commissioning of a new Oakland care home, whilst my very capable assistant, George, looks after Hastings Court.
I count myself as being so lucky to work in an environment where we are all one big family.
