Overall Experience
I had to go into Welshwood Manor for 20 days when my daughter had a holiday. I found all was well, very clean and all the staff were very good and kind and helpful to me. I would recommend this home to anybody.

The level of care is simply outstanding. There is very little turnover of staff; visitors are always warmly welcomed and offered a cup of tea. The home is happy for you to visit at any time during the day and - as a frequent visitor to the home - I can vouch that the level of cleanliness and degree of support for my mother-in-law has never been short of outstanding. Activities are organised on a very regular basis that engage residents in achievable and stimulating tasks and special days in the calendar, as well as birthdays, are celebrated with an assortment of decorations, special treats and events/activities. Outside groups also provide entertainment, a monthly church service, etc. It is a place in which you can have complete trust that your loved one will be very well looked after and cherished.

Overall Experience
After a difficult search to find a care home for my parents, I am very happy with the care they receive. The staff are friendly, caring and prepared to go the extra mile. Activities are organised both within the care home and trips out. Welshwood Manor is a gem.
