My father went into Clairleigh for a month of respite care in May. He thoroughly enjoyed his time there, any nerves we had as a family were quickly abated by the kindness and professionalism of the staff. He was very well cared for by everyone and made to feel like part of the family. I can't speak
highly enough about every aspect of Clairleigh and I a very grateful for the way the wonderful staff looked after him.

Review from Shirley W (Daughter of Resident) published on 16 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Dad stayed at Clairleigh for two months following a spell in hospital earlier in the year. We we delighted with the care and kindness he received at Clairleigh. He has severe dementia and Alzheimer's, and the staff at Clairleigh looked after his every need extremely well. The staff are lovely and
the home itself looks more like a boutique five star hotel than a nursing home - it's extremely smart and spotlessly clean.


Although he was unable to participate due to his condition, the home has a wonderful entertainment and activity programme for the residents. Mum would visit almost every day and she got to enjoy and take part in the fun, which was lovely for her. They have a truly gorgeous garden there for the residents to enjoy.


It's a place I would be more than happy to live at when I'm old and need good care. Thank you everyone at Clairleigh for helping us at a difficult time.

My father stayed at Clairleigh after having suffered a stroke in January 2025. He also has mild dementia/Alzheimer's. Clairleigh really is a wonderful care home. We couldn't fault the staff. They were so lovely and caring and patient. Our father was extremely well cared for during his time at the home.
He made a great recovery and we now have him back at home with us but should we ever need additional care for him in the future, we would have no hesitation in returning him to Clairleigh!

Review from Simon K (Son of Resident) published on 30 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum was a resident of Clairleigh from November 2021 until her death in January 2025. The care she received was excellent and she thoroughly enjoyed joining in the many activities and visits provided. Her health particularly her mental health improved after she moved in thanks to the engagement with
the staff and other residents. Towards the end of 2024 she became increasingly frail and sadly died in early January 2025. The end of life care she received from both the nurses and care staff enabled her to stay at the home rather than have to go into hospital. This care at the end of her life was outstanding, both the kindness and professionalism of all the staff helped both her and the family during this difficult time.
A special mention for a certain member of staff and the Activities team for all their hard work and the way they treat all with dignity.

I cannot praise this home enough, they genuinely care for their residents. My mother was admitted in July 2024, and the staff from the nurses to the carers and management and entertainment are completely committed to making my mum's new life as comfortable as possible. I visit at various times of the
day and have always been welcomed. My mother seems very happy and I know that she feels confident in their hands. Thank you Clairleigh Nursing Home.

I came to Clairleigh after a hospital stay for partial hip replacement resulting from a fall. Feel fortunate to have secured a room here as care has been exceptional. It is personal care, all carers are friendly and helpful and mindful of my needs. The facilities are excellent and all residents appear
happy and well looked after. There is a happy atmosphere enhanced by many activities that are all encouraged to take part in.

My Father was cared for, for 2 years at Claorleigh Care Home, Bromley.
I and my family cannot speak more highly of the home. The level of care and compassion at all times are outstanding! Numerous meetings are held and staff go that extra mile always. It is a lovely setting being clean and bright.
What
a super place, which made the last 2 years for my Father the best they could have been.

I have an old friend who has been at Clairleigh for about two years. I visit her each week and I have been very impressed. I think the most important thing when thinking of a care home is the staff" All those I met are just the best. They genuinely love their residents. There is plenty of entertainment
for those who want to partake. I was amazed at how quickly my friend accepted her new life. She has a very comfortable en-suite room and can spend as much time as she wants there. Having seen several care homes I would highly recommend Clairleigh.

My Father spent the last 5 months of his life at Clairleigh Nursing Home. All of the staff were loving, patient, and very kind to my Dad who had Alzheimer's. Dad passed away peacefully and the night staff made the sad time more bearable.
I will have fond memories of Dad's last days, great entertainment,
and genuine caring staff.

I cannot answer to final question about value for money as we have that under assessment currently and I do not know how much I will have to pay.

My Mother has dementia and has very little short-term memory but the activities and the many social events brought into the home, with music and singing, has the most amazing effect. She can remember the words and sings with a smile on her face. She enjoys the armchair and attends the hairdresser weekly.

I visited my dear friend on Wednesday 27th December, who is with you for what is probably end-of-life care. I was very impressed with what I saw: staff, establishment, level of care, monitoring and attention. I couldn't have hoped for better. I left with comfort in the knowledge that my friend could
not be in a better place. Thank you so much.

After a long stay in hospital my mum moved into Clairleigh eight years ago. The care is exceptional and the staff genuinely care about the people they are looking after. The residents are all treated as individuals and all their needs are taken care of. Standards of the home are very high, it is extremely
well kept with great facilities. I think that so many of the staff seem to have been there for a long time, which is a good indication of the way the home is run and the benefit of that for the residents is immeasurable.

Found Clairleigh to be a well-run nursing home and very clean. The staff was very kind and willing to do the little extra things for my father and the day-to-day care was very good.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.779)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.779) out of 10 for Clairleigh Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.779 for Clairleigh Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (157 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 195 Ratings = 4.779
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Clairleigh Nursing Home is based on 17 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 50 registered maximum number of service users is 10, which has been reached with 17 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
