My dad was a resident for 2 1/2 years and he was very happy here but sadly he passed away in April 2025. When we had he's funeral we had a collection for the residents and staff to have a remembrance for him. So today (23rd July) they had an elvis and a football club tribute for him, he loved dancing
and loved this football club. Me and my sister went and it was a lovely remembrance for him, he would've loved it. All the staff are very lovely and friendly and we will definitely be keeping in touch with them

Reply from Lorraine Taylor, Home Manager at Windle Court

Thank you so much for your kind words. It was truly a privilege to care for your dad-he will be deeply missed by everyone at Windle Court. We were honored to hold a Remembrance Day in his memory, and we're so glad you were able to join us.

It's obviously a heart breaking decision to place a member of your family in a care home, but we are extremely pleased with Windle Court.


Care workers have a incredible responsibility in looking after our loved ones when we are struggling to cope, but at Windle they have the ability to always care

and smile.It must be one of the hardest jobs out there, but everyone without exception makes us feel welcome and very quickly know everyone on first name terms.


The level of care is exceptional, and of course we all want carers to spend more time with our loved ones but no doubt funds do not allow that plus it would take an army of staff


Although our dad does not always join in all the activities there is plenty on offer, including days out to the beach, garden centres and many more that our dad loves.


If you are now at that difficult time into looking into care homes, we would say the team at Windle are 100% committed to offering a first class caring service.

Reply from Lorraine Taylor, Home Manager at Windle Court

Thank you so much for your touching review. We understand that choosing a care home for a loved one is a deeply emotional decision, and we're honoured that you've entrusted us with your dad's care.Your words truly reflect the essence of Windle Court. Our team is dedicated to providing compassionate and personalised care, and it's heartening to know that this resonates with you. We strive to create a welcoming environment where both residents and their families feel valued and supported.We're delighted to hear that your dad enjoys the outings and activities we offer.

I am honestly so happy we have chosen to house nan in Windle court. She is a very independent person and the thought of living in a residential care home is not something she was happy about. The home has made the whole transition so easy with Nan always laughing and joking. Staff cannot do enough and
are always so approachable. I would not want another home for my nan, this is the start of a new chapter for Nan and one I think will be amazing. Being able to keep ip to date on the Facebook page has been fantastic too seeing all the wonderful activities that happen every single day again reassures me the right decision was made. Thank you so much!

Although it took time for mum to settle in, she did share with me that the residents, staff and home we "really nice". She specifically mentioned the banter and time given to her from the domestics and tea lady. Although this was only a 2 week respite for mum, and would not be right for her to live
there permanently at this point in time, we would consider for the future.

The staff keep us updated as a family very regularly which we really appreciate. Especially the photos that they send. We see how Mum's doing and what activities
etc. she's been up to. This is particularly reassuring to me as I am often out of the country. We feel the staff know Mum well and responds promptly to her needs.

She has thrived in an environment where she can enjoy the company of others and is treated with love and respect by the care staff. Many thanks to all of them for their continued hard

Such kind wonderfully warm staff. They came to our aid in a most unfortunate predicament, that I will always be very grateful for.
Besides all of that, they took exceptionally brilliant care of my mother-in-law who unfortunately has Dementia.
These wonderful women worked tirelessly to get us some

Cannot fault Windle Court care home and we looked at a few. Staff go above and beyond with their care, all the workers have smiles on their faces from the cleaners to the management. The home is kept spotless, activities for the residents are always a source of fun excellent and food provided is varied.
Each staff member is very approachable and any queries are dealt with promptly. Unfortunately, we lost our family member, but she was so happy there and it has helped us to know that she was surrounded by so much love and care. Thank you everybody at Windle Court.

My father was with you for approximately one month for some rehabilitation care. We have since moved him to another care home, but that is of no reflection of the excellent care he received whilst with you at Windle Court. The decision was purely logistics. We needed to put my father into care after
getting him out of Hospital and it was no easy exercise to do, but your staff were most helpful, especially one lady in particular (you know who you are!). What we needed at the time for Dad was a caring, safe environment that would give him the dignity he required, and that he got from Windle Court.
Myself and the entire family can not thank you enough, for being so accommodating and flexible.

My mum was cared for and loved by staff at Windle Court. They are all wonderful, caring people who do a very difficult job looking after our loved ones when they face a sometimes very confusing and anxious time in their lives. Most of us can't do that job. The staff here are friendly, kind and fun.
When visiting they make you welcome - you become part of this big family. They do lots of activities and encourage residents to take part. I have seen for myself how happy the residents are to join in, watch and sing along. The rooms are clean and tidy. Meals are good plus additional refreshments throughout the day. The residents are kept clean and treated with respect and dignity. The photos tell the story of how good this home is and how happy the residents look in them...I can't thank Windle Court staff enough for looking after my lovely mum. Sadly she has now passed away but was cared for with tenderness right to the end. They are a brilliant team, so supportive in every way.

My father has been in the care home since October 2022. The care home made the transition very easy. My father is very happy here. The staff are excellent, and I can't thank them enough. They are very caring, very informative and helpful, and they work very hard. He has been on several outings, and
they take pictures and put them on Facebook, which is brilliant as family members can see what my father has been up to, and they all comment on how much this care home does with the residents. The care home is very clean, and my father's room is always neat and tidy. I have had a few issues, nothing bad, but they have acted on it and rectified the problem.
My father loves to dance, and they have entertainment with a singer, and they always get him involved.
I would definitely recommend this care home as this was recommended to me, and I'm so happy that he has settled in really well.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.759)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.759) out of 10 for Windle Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.759 for Windle Court is calculated as follows: ( (257 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) + (3 Poors x 2) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 303 Ratings = 4.759

  • b) 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 Windle Court is based on 25 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 76 registered maximum number of service users is 15.2, which has been reached with 25 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
