Erskine Hall provides nursing, residential and dementia care. Inside the impressive, purpose-built home, they offer a warm welcome to long and short stays, including care for those living with Parkinson’s or Huntington’s care. Respite bookings can be made in advance if planning a holiday or break.
Based in a quiet suburb of Northwood, on the outskirts of Watford. There are plenty of peaceful spots and social spaces to spend time in.

The home also benefits from a cinema room, hairdressing room with nail bar too.
There's a great atmosphere and the staff encourage residents to get involved as much as they’d like. To help residents feel at home, they take the time to get to know them.

She moved into Erskine Hall in September 2024 at the age of 99. She celebrated her 100th birthday and her 101st but sadly she died in October 2025 very peacefully whilst taking a morning nap simply from frailty of old age.
From the moment of her arrival, Mum was very happy living in Erskine Hall. She knew her life was moving towards its end but she accepted every new day as it came. She loved all the staff who looked after her and took care of her. She knew that everybody had their part to play be they a cleaner or a nurse; a cook or a receptionist.
As her son, I never once had any complaints either about the care provided to my Mum or the overall service. Both were outstanding and greatly exceeded my expectations. Absolutely wonderful.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us your lovely review. We are so sorry for your loss but hope it is reassuring for you knowing that your Mum received the best possible care in her final years. Thank you again for your kind words.
My mother has been a resident since November 23, and my father since April 25.

My parents both have excellent day to day care, compassion and respect.
I know their best interests and overall well being are a priority for the staff.
Earlier this year my father's health declined and made it unsafe for him to continue living independently. I arranged for him to join my mother at the nursing home. The staff made this transition from his home to Erskine Hall quite seamless, which helped everyone involved enormously.
Thank you for your kind words about Erskine Hall. We are happy to have been able to help with during such a difficult time. Keeping families connected and together is one of our top priorities, as well as providing excellent care to our residents. We look forward to continuing to provide both of your parents with the best level of care.

My Dad has been a resident with Erskine Hall Care Home for 8 years until he sadly passed away in October 2025 The staff and carers were absolutely amazing with my Dad , who'd suffered a catastrophic stroke in June 2017, leaving him unable to talk or move. All the staff treated my Dad with care and humility, they understood his personality even though he couldn't talk and through their care and dedication, we believe he survived so long after his stroke. The carers and staff also made time for his wife and family and made it feel like a home from from for my Dad. I highly recommend Erskine Hall.

Mums experience at Erskine hall for a 4 week respite change all those bad thoughts. It is bright and welcoming and has a happy feeling as you walk through the door. The care home management, reception and accounts team pleased to see and help you not just on the first visit but every time you visit which is anytime day or night which is amazing. Mum loved the food it was very tasty and mum in her younger days was a cook but never did she have a bad word the care patience and overall feeding assistance meant a lot. All the carers nurses and round the hourly nursing attention showed great dedication they are amazing people and you can see how much they really enjoy their job their dedication and care is second to none. The cleanliness the care the entertainment 100%

I can honestly say that I have never been happier with a care provider than I have been with Erskine Hall since my mum became a resident. The staff here treat my mum as they would their own. Ample services to provide stimulation and entertainment. Can't fault Erskine Hall.

Erskine Hall is an excellent care home which offers wonderful service, in this case my father. They are given 3 meals a day plus tea, coffees, snacks and various other refreshments throughout the day. The rooms are warm and cosy with good lighting and bathroom facilities. Care is given 24 hours a day and the service by staff is exceptional. Always on hand whenever you need them. There is always a choice for meals throttle day which certainly keeps the residents healthy. There is always a choice of activities to attend which my father particularly enjoys with the music. Would recommend this care home to anyone who definitely wants great care for their relationship in times of need.
