My Uncle stayed at Marie Louise for the last 8 weeks of his life. The care, kindness, empathy and dignity shown to both my Uncle and us, as a family, was exemplary. The home has a home from home feel. My Uncle and us, as his family, felt part of the Marie Louise family, albeit sadly only for a short time. We could not have wished for a more beautiful, clean, respectful, nurturing environment for our Uncle to live out his last few weeks. The staff are committed, genuine, caring and also, importantly fun and uplifting. Would not hesitate to recommend this excellent home.
My mother has been at the Marie Louise for the last 11 years, I have visited her 2-3 times per week over that time. I am very familiar with the staff and the running of the Home, it is for me a second home. Mum was always treated with such care, respect, dignity and courtesy. All the staff knew...
My mother has been at the Marie Louise for the last 11 years, I have visited her 2-3 times per week over that time. I am very familiar with the staff and the running of the Home, it is for me a second home. Mum was always treated with such care, respect, dignity and courtesy. All the staff knew and understood her very well, they listened and could discuss her care at any time. The feeling of "family" dominates. Staff did lovely things with her such as singing and music, art, reading, quizzes, trips out as a group or individually, photos show Mum having a wonderful time. She and I had real affection for so many staff throughout, I won't name them all for fear of missing someone out. Her room was always clean, Mum always looked nice and her clothes well cared for. I was always welcomed - as were her other visitors. In Mums last days the staff have been tireless in her care, and so supportive to family We are incredibly lucky to have the Marie Louise House Home and staff in our lives.

In her last days it was very moving seeing all the staff visit her and showed their genuine love towards her.
I had a meeting with Linda (Asst Manager) on 26/05/26 in respect of Mum's care plans. The meeting was very productive, Linda was a great help, and Mum's care plans are such that I am happy she is receiving good care.

My mum has been living at Marie Louise House for 4 years. I am very happy with care and support they have provided. I particularly want to praise the staff, for their engagement with my mum, which I believe has made my mum happy to be there.

She has advanced dementia and the carers have quickly learnt how to look after her and respond to her needs.
Mum is always happy, clean and well dressed and clearly has a good relationship with all the carers that look after her.
The home routines are adapted to fit mums needs, for example, as she takes a very long time to eat food is available for her most of the time and monitored to ensure adequate nutrition.
The home is very responsive to mums needs and proactive in providing the best care possible. Communication with the family on any issues, however minor, is always quick and clear.
In my opinion the care offered here is first class
Thank you very much for your kind words, the pleasure is ours to be able to serve your mother.
The staff are all very friendly and welcoming on every visit. The communal areas and my dad's room are always clean and tidy. It's good that every time we have a concern about my dad, it is taken seriously and dealt with promptly. My dad has been here 3 years now and I do believe it's the best care...

My wife has been at Marie Louise House since November 2025 on the Nightingale unit, as she has Alzheimer's. At Marie Louise House, the staff really care about my wife and her fellow residents. I and my family have all experienced many of the team members who go way beyond their designated roles to ensure my wife is as happy as possible, whilst being safe and healthy as she can be. Whether that is knowing her name, saying hello and asking how she is to engage her in activities. This is true whether they work in any department.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. It truly means a great deal to us.

Dear Michael,Thank you so much for your wonderful review. It truly means a great deal to us.
Joyce and the entire Nightingale team are deeply committed to providing the very best care here at Marie Louise House, and they take immense pride in supporting each of our residents as individuals.
Knowing your wife's name, understanding what brings her comfort, and helping her engage in meaningful activities are all part of ensuring she feels safe, valued and at home.
It is a genuine privilege to care for your wife, and we are so grateful for the trust you and your family have placed in us. Your kind words will be shared with the whole team.
My mother moved to Marie Louise House in September 2025. She settled in quickly. The staff are polite caring and treat her with dignity and respect. They listen to any concerns and do their best to address them. The home is very clean, spacious and airy. We are happy with our choice.

I cannot fault the care shown by the care staff - they are patient, compassionate and kind especially as my Mother has deteriorated greatly in her health over the last couple of months.
The staff are always friendly and pleasant and some in particular are exceptional without naming names. It is good that there is very little evidence of agency staff which makes it easier to get to know that staff looking after Mum.
The food is excellent and always hot and well cooked.
The rooms are comfortable and spacious enough for the needs of elderly people.
My only complaint would be the complete lack of communication from the management of the home. I have e-mailed with queries on funding which have not been replied to and there has been no official feedback to me on my Mother's health etc since she went in last year. Luckily the nursing staff make up for this shortfall.
Thank you for your kind words your feedback is highly appreciated, the message will be passed on to the team. Thank you kindly.

She enjoys every aspect of her day and she seems not to want to return home! Such caring and kind staff.
Highly recommended.

After a bad fall at home, my grandmother decided to go to Marie Louise House for some respite. She is having a great time. The staff have been so kind and respectful. The food has been amazing and there are always fun and engaging activities for the residents to get involved with if they wish. Her room is fantastic and there’s a really relaxed atmosphere in the home. Communication with the home has been fantastic. It provides such peace of mind knowing that she is being well cared for and nurtured back to health. She describes it as being on holiday! We love going to visit her and it’s lovely seeing how the staff interact with all of the residents.
All the positive comments here reflect everything we try to do at Marie Louise House.
The moment I entered Marie Louise House I knew this was going to be a wonderful place for my mum. Although sadly she only had a short stay, the staff were always so kind, caring and professional and showed amazing attention and dignity during her final hours. A lovely care home ran by lovely staff.
