Residents can eat tasty and nutritious meals, which are freshly cooked by onsite chefs, in the communal dining room or privately in their own rooms if they wish to do so.

Thanks for leaving us a review. We're excited for our mini makeover too!
I was very impressed how quickly the manager arranged for my husband's admission to Hungerford Care Home from hospital after his stroke. Despite being confined to a wheelchair, he has settled in very well and enjoys being with others in the lounge and how particular the excellent activities that...
I am welcome to visit at any time, and he is lucky enough to have a lovely room overlooking the garden which is kept very neat & tidy. I would recommend Hungerford Care Home to all.
Thank you for sharing your experience of our home. Best wishes, Julie

We are welcome to visit at any time + we have peace of mind - dad is happy, safe + well fed! in his new home - thank you for your care.
There were so many activities laid on for the Christmas period. Children came in and sang and a Christmas party to name a few. The relatives were invited to Christmas dinner, and all residents were considered.

A stress free move for my Grandparents in law, with lots of support and reassurance from the friendly attentive staff at the care home they have settled in well. A real home from home, clean and tidy, the rooms are decorated nicely with nice furniture in place. Good home cooked food, a warm...
The experience of looking around with the manager and having everything explained so we understood how it all worked and what to do put us at ease.
The care team are friendly and always have a smile, seeing our much loved family members looking clean, comfortable, warm and well fed reassured us that we made the right decision.

My Aunt was given 11 weeks to live and she has just passed away, after 6 years of excellent care.
The staff are friendly and accommodating. They treat the residents with utmost respect and care and dignity. Nothing is too much trouble.
The activities are varied and tailored to residents' needs and abilities. Food is excellent and housekeeping is too. All staff go above and beyond for their residents. More like a big family. We couldn't have asked for better these last 6 years. We are very grateful.

Sadly Dad had a stroke and was initially in hospital. However, I asked if it was possible for him to return to Hungerford Care home to spend his last days there.
In his last days, the staff were completely marvellous and supported our whole family which was wonderful.
I would, without doubt, recommend Hungerford Care Home for anyone having to make this hard decision for their loved ones.
What a brilliant afternoon thank you to all staff at Hungerford Nursing Home you were brilliant.

Everyone is so friendly and polite and nothing is too much trouble. When we visit on a Saturday we are always offered a tea or coffee.
They organise so many activities for the residents to enjoy. They have had afternoon tea, pancake making, singing, games and gardening to name a few.
If mum is ever unwell we always get a call to let us know and they keep us informed of any changes.
We would highly recommend Hungerford if you are looking for a care home. The gardens are beautiful, overlooking fields and deer and pheasants can often be seen. There is secure entry so the residents are safe.
I can't say enough good things about Hungerford Care Home and the incredible care my mom has been receiving there. From the very first day, it's been clear that her safety and well-being are top priorities for everyone there. The staff here are simply amazing. They're always attentive and genuinely...
The staff take the time to get to know her, understanding her likes and dislikes, and they always have a friendly word or a smile for her. It's these little touches that make such a big difference.
The care home is surrounded by beautiful, well-maintained gardens that provide a peaceful and relaxing environment. My mom enjoys sitting in the garden enjoying the fresh air and scenery.
Knowing that my mom is safe, well-cared for, and happy gives me such peace of mind.
Huge thanks to all the staff for making my mom feel at home and loved.
Under the new manager, the care home has been hugely uplifted in all areas. Staff have always been great, but now it appears even better with high standards of care and attention. My relative has always been happy here and I feel more at ease too with the more recent community feeling that there is...
Entertainment/daily activities are very good and everyone is included. Cleanliness is at a good standard.
With regular relative meetings, we know what's been happening behind the scenes and what's ahead and they are very open to suggestions.
It has a great feel to the home and nothing is too much trouble to put your mind at ease.
Would recommend anyone to take a look around to see for themselves.

Mom has been rushed into Hungerford Nursing Home as she was at high risk of a fall due to having Huntington's Disease. It’s an awful disease with no cure. The Nursing Home staff have gone way above to help my mother-in-law get her a room and settle in. The staff are simply fantastic. Everything is organised and mom is so well looked after. Mom has told us she feels safe. Which is the reassurance one needs to hear. It’s a wonderful home with amazing entertainment, gardens to sit in and incredible staff. Everyone has a smile and nothing is too much trouble. It’s a huge change for anyone going through this situation and this Nursing Home delivers. Thank you so much.
My beautiful mum has Huntington's Disease and is wildly independent. It came to a point where Mum wasn’t safe anymore in her own flat. I called around a few nursing homes and talked with the manager at Hungerford Care Home and was instantly put at ease and invited to view the nursing home with Mum....
My beautiful mum has Huntington's Disease and is wildly independent. It came to a point where Mum wasn’t safe anymore in her own flat. I called around a few nursing homes and talked with the manager at Hungerford Care Home and was instantly put at ease and invited to view the nursing home with Mum. We went to see the home on the Saturday, Hungerford Nursing Home instantly gave me a warm feel, beautiful grounds, an old stately home and not clinical at all. On Monday Mum became very unsafe and I called the manager to ask if she could accommodate Mum if I could get the social funding in place. Within 3 days we had moved Mum into Hungerford Nursing Home and Mum is now safe and being looked after by the amazing staff there. Nothing is too much trouble and there is a wonderful sense of calm. We have been able to dress Mum's room up and say what Mum's routine is. We even had to write a story about mum's history so everyone could get to know her. I am now able to sleep at night knowing Mum is safe - thank you!
Our mum has been a resident for almost 2 years here. The 24/7 care is incredible, nursing team, carers, entertainment and housekeeping are brilliant. It's very reassuring for us that our mum is looked after, supported and encouraged on a daily basis. We are very lucky to be a part of this 'family'...

It's very reassuring for us that our mum is looked after, supported and encouraged on a daily basis. We are very lucky to be a part of this 'family' who provide invaluable service in a calm and professional way.
We have although a short period, found Hungerford Care Home to be excellent and Mum has settled very quickly.

Having been first admitted on a temporary to discharge basis Dad was adamant he did not want to be in a care facility. Within a couple of days he loved it so much he wanted to stay permanently. We arranged for Mum to be transferred from her temporary facility and they are very happy. It is wonderful and supportive. All staff are very helpful and incredibly caring. Staff are amazing with them both. The location and grounds are wonderful and the activities organised are being thoroughly enjoyed.
