Pax Hill is care home set in nine acres of gardens in the picturesque village of Bentley on the border between Surrey and Hampshire. Every room in this unusual circular building has views of the surrounding countryside or central courtyard through low level picture windows.
Each bedroom has large en-suite shower rooms with wheelchair access, electric profiling beds, flat screen television, telephone and access to a broadband internet connection.
Nursing and care staff are on duty 24 hours a day to provide help whatever your care requirements.
Separate, self-contained care areas enable them to provide different types of care and to enable residents to feel comfortable with their surroundings.
Professionals provide general nursing care, palliative care, nursing care for dementia and residential care.
Activity therapists provide a social calendar of events and support to encourage communication and maintenance of an active lifestyle. Alternatively, the gardens provide the perfect place for tranquillity and a spot of gardening.
They are happy to offer respite and short-term care for a few days to a few weeks to cover post-operative recuperation, carers holidays and breaks, or trial visits to see if care home life is suitable for you.

As a family we cannot say enough good things about Pax Hill. Dad has been treated with care, kindness and dignity since he moved in. The admission process was smooth and efficient and personal to Dad's needs. His room is clean and comfortable. The nursing staff are kind and diligent in caring for his medical needs. The activity staff go out of their way to be helpful and organise games and activities that Dad enjoys. We are very grateful to know Dad is being so well looked after.
We are so pleased that Dad's arrival into Pax Hill went so smoothly and that he has settled right in. Our care and activities staff are passionate about what they do and we pride ourselves in providing personised, quality care and support to all of our residents. Thank you for taking the time to write a review, I will pass on your kind comments to the team in Montgomery.

This is the first time I have visited my sister here. She seems very well and happy and well fed. The problem she has with her legs is being addressed and managed very well. She is glad to be amongst people she can talk to. We sat in the garden, which is lovely and well cared for. The whole establishment's walls are decorated with very interesting hobbies/pastimes. It's a delight.
We are so delighted that your sister is happy with us and is enjoying the surroundings at Pax Hill. We are fortunate to be surrounded by beautiful gardens with views of fields beyond. Many thanks for writing a review for us, I will pass on your kind comments to the team, and in particular our gardener, who really does do a magnificent job.
My 101-year-old sister-in-law went in for a 2-week respite period and decided she would like to live there permanently because she felt safe and so well cared for and Paxhill welcomed her which was lovely. Not once has she wished she was back home.

Impressed by the caring nature of activity coordinators delivering a range of engaging activities.
Have not been present at a main meal yet, but impressed by snacks. On a couple of occasions, workmen or deliverymen have propped open doors, which we felt was a danger.

We are pleased to hear that mum is settling into our Montgomery unit and that she is enjoying the large range of activities on offer to our residents with dementia. We are fortunate to have three activity and wellness staff on our Montgomery unit who engage with residents on a one to one basis or in a group setting depending on the resident's need and preference. On occasion, if a member of staff is helping a resident, there may be a short space of time where there is one carer in the lounge, the majority of the time there will be at least two. Unfortunately we are unable to comment on a workman propping a door open as this was not brought to our attention, there are two nurses on duty every day in Montgomery and we welcome open communication at all times. Thank you for taking the time to write a review, all of your comments have been passed on to our team.

From the first day the staff were caring attentive and totally aware of his care needs.
All the staff went above and beyond to support us both at a very difficult time.
I need say no more when I tell you that my husband is now well enough for me with help to care for him at home. He returned home on the 30th Jan 2026.
Sincere thanks to all staff at Pax Hill for their care and dedication and allowing us the opportunity to continue our life together.
It was an absolute pleasure to care for your husband in the time that he was with us. We are so pleased that he was able to go home but we will miss you both and hope you will still visit us for our events.. Thank you for taking the time to write a review which I will share with Windsor and the whole Pax Hill team.

Pax Hill is welcoming to all. The staff demonstrate kindness. All staff treat my parents, who are both residents, with dignity and respect at all times. Food is excellent. The care given is excellent, and any concerns regarding my parents' health or emotional needs are raised early and communicated appropriately. The activities coordinators encourage both to be involved and particularly enable my mum to engage as much as she can to get maximum fun and enjoyment. It is great that Pax Hill involve outside guests from the local community to entertain the residents.
Thank you very much for taking the time to write a review, it is so important to us that everyone that comes to Pax Hill is made to feel welcome and we are very proud of the excellent, person centered care given to all of our residents. It is a real joy to see your parents engaging in all the activities we offer and I am so pleased that they enjoy the varied entertainers that come in.

My father was at Pax Hill for 2-and-a-half years. It was a happy time for him. Everyone there exceeded expectations. He had the same 2 carers for the entire time he was there and their care was amazing. There is a real family atmosphere and visits are allowed at any time. There is a very low turnover of staff so families get to know everyone. We cannot praise Pax Hill enough.
Many thanks for taking the time to write a review of our Balmoral Unit. We are proud of our dedicated carers, and have a very low staff turnover at Pax Hill. I am so pleased you were treated as family, it is something that we strive for with friends and relatives of all of our residents. It was an absolute pleasure to care for your father, thank you for placing your trust in us.
