My Husband has been a resident of Thalassa Nursing home since January 2026.
On arriving my first reaction was how small the room was but I soon realised that the care of the staff for his needs have been first class.
Nothing is too much trouble and he is settled and happy.The food is varied and well
cooked.The care at this lovely home helps me to feel less anxious and guilty that his life has come to this.My family and I including Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren are always made very welcome.Thank you for all your ongoing support.

Every one of them treated him with respect and kindness and nothing was too much trouble.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am extremely pleased with the wonderful care of my Mum at Thalassa Nursing home. She was always safe, secure and treated with respect and kindness by the whole staff. Alongside this, the support, communication, compassion and understanding of us as a family, especially my father, was above and beyond
our expectations. I have recommended Thalassa to other families looking for excellent care for their loved ones. I am already determined that my father will join the Thalassa family when his own needs require professional care. Thank you, everyone, especially two very special members of staff who, without their guidance and positive support, I would not have had the strength and confidence to support both my parents on their rollercoaster dementia journey. Keep being amazing.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son, who had severe MS, was a resident in the Thalassa Nursing Home for over 10 years (he recently passed away). During his stay in the Thalassa he was treated in a friendly, compassionate manner and the fact that he survived for over 10 years with this most demanding medical condition is testimony
to the standard of the superb care in the Thalassa Nursing Home. There is simply no better Nursing Home in the area.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife has been at Thalassa for just over 10 years, in that time mainly due to Covid there have been many changes of personnel. The home has recovered well and the overall care is now excellent in all respects I’m pleased to say. The new manager has brought the facilities and decor up to a much better
standard, it feels more comfortable and homely.


The staff overall are very receptive to the needs of the service user and listen to any constructive suggestions I may make. The owners of Thalassa are very approachable and visit the home on a very regular basis so communication is extremely good and they appreciate your input as a regular visitor.

My mum was transferred 5 weeks ago to this lovely nursing home. I have to say how very impressed my brothers and I are.
Mum and us were given a warm welcome, staff are so very friendly, lots of smiles and laughter and go that mile to ensure Mum is comfortable. Also the care they are giving to our
mum is excellent. Management and admin are very informative, helpful, and friendly.
I highly recommend this nursing home.

My father spent his last 9 months of life in Thalassa care home. I cannot thank all the staff enough for the love and care they showed to my dad and the wider family. Nothing was ever too much trouble and my dad was cared for so much, until the end.

My father spent his final weeks in Thalassa Nursing Home, upon his arrival to his passing he was treated with the utmost respect and care. The management and staff were extremely helpful and friendly. I went every day to see Dad while he was there and never once was I made to feel in the way. I must
add the home is extremely clean and always smelt fresh and the residents' rooms cleaned every day, the House keeping staff were lovely. The kitchen staff were also excellent and the food looked lovely. Nothing was too much trouble for them. I wish to thank each and every one of the staff for looking after my dad with the respect and care he deserved.

Review from Janet B (Power of Attorney of Resident) published on 8 April 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My late mother was a resident at Thalassa for several years, she received exceptionally good all-round care to end of life. I, therefore, was delighted that a room was available for my elderly friend for whom I hold POA. My friend is 87 years old and was admitted to hospital suffering from self-abuse
and severe weight loss. She lived a life of seclusion and was very nervous at the thought of leaving her home. How ever, within a week of care and support from the manager led team at Thalassa, my friend was in tears with happiness and declared “ I am so happy and never want to go home “. The care given to residents in so many ways is very good, respect for confidentiality and privacy, good, plentiful home-cooked meals, professional nursing care and most importantly for myself communication. Yes, it is not the most modern building with glitzy decor but that is overshadowed by the caring and homely atmosphere. All of these components give me peace of mind that I made the correct choice.
Reply from Zahid Datoo, Proprietor at Thalassa Nursing HomeThank you, the manager and staff will be very appreciative of your comments.

Review from Sharon L (Daughter of Resident) published on 28 November 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum became a resident of Thalassa in November 2017 following the closure of another care home (she had been there only 6 months). From the start, the manager and her team were extremely welcoming and supportive, especially to my elderly father who visited most days. Mum suffered from advanced Alzheimer’s
and Vascular Dementia, among other things. Through his own failing health, dad joined mum in June of this year as a resident. Sadly we lost mum just recently in October, but throughout, the entire team have been helpful, supportive and frankly, like an extended family. If I had to make the decision again of where to put either of my parents, I would not hesitate to choose here. They continue to support dad, keeping a closer eye following the loss of mum which allows me to sleep soundly, knowing he is in their safe hands.
Following the loss of mum recently, Thalassa were kind enough to offer to host the wake following mum's funeral which was a lovely touch, but even more than that, they offered to cater for the event to! How thoughtful is that!

The staff here are absolutely wonderful; they have treated my Grandmother with incredible care and dignity. My Grandmother is provided with excellent home cooked meals which have brought back her appetite and she is looking well nourished. Her room is wonderfully clean, light and airy. I cannot recommend
this care home enough; a wonderful place.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum moved into the care home at the end of December due to ill health. The care she received was wonderful. Nothing was too much trouble from the nurses to the care assistants. The food was plentiful and a good variety. Prior to moving into the home my mum was in hospital. She was very happy while
she was in the Thalassa and loved all the staff who often just popped in for a quick chat in between doing their duties. My mum passed away in early April and during the last week of her life, I could not have asked for more. The staff all showed total respect and genuine love towards her. It was a difficult time for my family and myself but the staff helped to get us through each day. I cannot thank the manager and her team enough for the care they provided. I would not hesitate in recommending the Thalassa.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.929)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.929) out of 10 for Thalassa Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 5 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.897 for Thalassa Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (52 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 58 Ratings = 4.897
  2. 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 4.032 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Thalassa Nursing Home is based on 5 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 = 3.5
    2. 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 47 registered maximum number of service users is 9.4. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.4 = 0.532
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
