Stone House Nursing Home

All staff were kind and very friendly. This is a lovely old house in beautiful surroundings. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff. I have been very here and would recommend the home to anyone looking for good care.

The friendly, courteous and professional care given to my mother when she arrived with many medical issues, was a great start to her stay at Stone House Nursing Home. Her medical conditions require constant monitoring and any major changes are promptly communicated to relatives when appropriate. Her dietary needs are catered for (by the chef adapting the varied menu) and she participates (when she can) in some of the many activities provided by the home. It is reassuring to know she is being cared for by such a considerate and caring team in a peaceful county setting. My father was also a resident during the last months of his life and was also treated with great respect and professionalism.

My husband has received very good care and treatment whilst at Stone House Nursing Home. The staff have been kind and caring and have even incorporates celebrating special events. He has appreciated his very pleasant room. The only negative point is the accessibility at the main door and the time that it sometimes takes to get up to his room for a person using a zimmer!

In short, all my family love the care home and we would happily recommend it to all our friends and relatives.

Lovely place in a great location. The building is well-kept and appreciated by the residents. All the staff are friendly and very caring of the residents. There are lots of activities from painting to animal visits to visiting singers that everyone enjoys. My mother-in-law always comments on how lovely the food is. The recent project to upgrade the patio and gardens is great. The summer fete was amazing with staff dressing up and a fabulous spread of food. Certainly a happy and well-respected home.

I am so happy with all the work, my dad has been really well looked after and I would tell my friend about the care home.

The staff are wonderful and nothing was too much trouble.

The Stone House team looked after my mother too before her demise at the age of 96, and her care was also exemplary. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

My wife has been a resident at Stone House Nursing Home for three and a half years. Throughout this time, the care she has received has been outstanding in all aspects. An exceptional nursing home.

All the staff have been welcoming and helpful from the first time we came to view the home to my father and all the friends and family who have come to see him. My father found his time in the hospital very difficult, and it has been so good to see him relax and settle since he moved to the home. We appreciate the level of everyday care that he is now experiencing.

It's the sort of home I hope my boys find me.

The medical support provided has been exceptional and it is very reassuring to know one's relative is in such a comfortable and secure environment.

I have always found the staff to be helpful, genuinely caring and friendly. My mother has been a resident at Stone House for 18 months, and in that time, has enjoyed a wide variety of activities from crafts, music, animal visits (dogs, monkeys, alpaca and even penguins) to outings to the cinema, the local garden centre, the Christmas lights at Waddesdon Manor and many others. The food is very good, and once a month, we have lunch together in the dining room. The gardens are lovely, and with the improvements that are currently being made, they will be even better in 2024.

My mother was cared for in Stone House for the last couple of years. She has been very well looked after and the care team is excellent. The activities are created according to each resident's needs. The home is very clean and safe. I have always felt like being at home and the grounds are amazing.

Since my husband arrived in June 2018, I have had no complaints. The food is excellent and nursing care is exceptional with all staff ready to discuss any problems. I would be more than happy to be a resident here.

Have been happy here, well looked after, with a good range of activities. I am beginning to enjoy painting.

My mother received outstanding nursing care during her short three-week stay. The management team took time to asses her needs and know her family, and on arrival, all staff were well briefed. The nursing and care team showed empathy, responded promptly to my mother's needs and were proactive in engaging specialist external support when required as well as providing ongoing feedback regarding my mother's complex medical needs. This released the care burden from our shoulders, allowing us to spend quality time with my mother, knowing she was being looked after in a professional and loving manner. We consider the staff at Stone House as friends or more of an extension of our family. For this, we will be forever grateful. Thank you, Stone House.

Prior to Mum coming to Stone House, Mum had a very traumatic three months being in two hospitals and having a bad experience staying in a temporary nursing home. The staff at Stone House have been very caring and understanding and Mum had settled and says how nice the staff are. The chefs are very accommodating, so she can have a varied diet as Mum has a lactose-free diet. The maintenance staff have put up shelves so she can have personal things from her home, which makes it feel more homely. The family feel Mum is safe and well cared for.

The staff are always very welcoming and friendly. Plus, we can make each other smile. My friend is very happy there, and every one of the staff speaks to him personally.

Having had previous experience with Stone House, it was interesting to see the subtle changes of modernisation without interfering with the charming exterior appearance. Large well kept gardens surround the home, ideal at the rear for walking with carers or wheelchairs to enjoy the wildlife, birds and squirrels etc. The food and service are excellent, served in the dining room, your own room or lounge. The carers are all extremely friendly, polite and efficient, as with the nursing staff who are keen to help when possible.
