Review from S V (Son-in-law of Resident) published on 15 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I visit the care home regularly to see my father-in-law. I see at first hand the level of care that he receives, it is always friendly, professional and compassionate. The staff always make time to make sure he is comfortable and safe. In addition, his room is very comfortable as is the home itself. In summary, it's very reassuring to know that he is in a safe environment and is extremely well looked after. Thank you to everyone that contributes to making this happen.

Reply from Rares Pop, General Manager at The Cotswold Home

We really appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback. It is reassuring to know that you feel confident in the care your father-in-law receives and that our team makes him feel comfortable and secure. Thank you for recognising their dedication.

Review from Stella S (Niece of Resident) published on 15 May 2026 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Reception staff were very helpful, as we arrived it was lunch time 12.30pm. We were taken to see my Aunt Dorothy, said hello, and that we would wait in the lounge, see her after they had fininshed. While we waiting there was a paper to read and other, also told to help ourselves to tea, coffee, cold drink and biscuit and cake if we wanted also fruit. All the staff we came in contact with were friendly. Everywhere spotlessly clean.

Review from Liz G (Daughter of Resident) published on 25 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Mum has had wonderful support during her four years at the Elizabeth Finn, especially in evidence with her recent move to a different room where Mum has settled back in very happily and her excellent care has continued. The entertainment team involve mum in activities. Her favourite is visiting the Lechlade singers, although she still talks about the trip to Farmoor last year, and she will never forget the Virtual Reality experience. Pamper days are a big hit too. She also loves simple visits for coffee in the library, and just generally being around listening to music and chat whenever she can.
From the receptionists to the laundry service and cleaners the support is always there and always friendly. But topping everything, from mum's point of view - the food! Lovely and varied menus and special days and the sweet trolley and hot coffee; waitering and proper napkins; a wine or a sherry available - she loves it!

This is now her home and we couldn't have chosen a better one.

Reply from Rares Pop, General Manager at The Cotswold Home
Thank you so much for your kind words.

We are delighted to hear how happy your mum is and that she feels so at home with us. Your appreciation of the team truly means a great deal, and we will be sure to share your lovely feedback with everyone.

Review from Sarah B (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mother has been a resident for over three years and we are very pleased with the care she is receiving. The staff look after her well and encourage her to take part in activities within the Home. She likes to walk with the aid of a zimmer frame and is encouraged to do so .
She particularly enjoys concerts by visiting musicians and this is a regular feature of the activities provided.The team providing social events work hard to provide entertainment and activities throughout the year, producing a stimulating environment.
The meals are good and many alternatives are offered .
The Home looks attractive and comfortable. The different seasons are marked by colourful and attractive decorations. The Dining room is often decorated to mark particular events.
The bedrooms are a bit small but have en-suite facilities and are kept at a comfortable temperature. We're impressed with the efforts to keep the rooms cool in heatwaves.

Regular visits by chiropodist and dentist would be good.

Reply from Rares Pop, General Manager at The Cotswold Home

Thank you for your feedback. We're delighted your mother is happy, enjoys the activities, and feels well cared for. We appreciate your comments regarding chiropody and dental visits and will consider how to enhance these services. Your kind words will be shared with the team.

Review from T P (Son of Resident) published on 29 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My Mother has been in the care home for about three months.
I think that she is receiving excellent care from the staff.
They are friendly and willing to help when it is needed. Her medical needs are attended to by the Local GP practice, and the on-site staff, with support from hospital staff if required.

The home is clean and spacious, with a sheltered central garden area and good facilities.

My mother finally has found somewhere she feels safe and well looked after. She wanted to stay at home but she lost her mobility and was afraid of falling and being alone. Your caring is exceptional. Our mother has been transformed and is enjoying life again. She is happy and beginning to mix in with the other residents. Thank you for giving her a new lease of life.

Overall Experience
We were invited to attend the Cotswold Home pre Christmas lunch which as usual was a really excellent occasion.
We have been associated with the care home for over twelve years as both our mothers were past residents.
Mother in Law was in the home for three years during which time she received excellent care.

My mother was in the home for nearly eleven years and reached her 100th birthday during that time.

Review from A F (Daughter of Resident) published on 25 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Having waited over 2 weeks for a response to a letter sent to the Manager following my parents respite stay, we received invoices. Perfectly valid, but with no accompanying letter. I cannot express how upset that made me and prompted me to complete this review.
I believe I was fair in the comments made. Each point, whilst making my parents stay slightly uncomfortable, were fixable with better communication. The Manager must feel we do not warrant a response. This I find greatly concerning, particulalry where the care of elderly folks is concerned. There should always be a direct route of communication to a Care Home Manager and their duty is to respond to issues raised by either residents or family members for the safeguarding of their patrons.

To those thinking of using this home, I do believe the majority of staff are excellent & I dont want them to feel discouraged. It is spotlessly clean & a lovely environment. I see previouss Manager was quick to respond to issues from family.

Reply from HELEN GRICE, Operations Support Manager at The Cotswold Home

Thank you for taking the time to review our home following your parent's recent stay. It's reassuring to read your positive comments, so I am disappointed that you felt the need to raise some less positive points with the home manager . Please be assured that all your issues raised will be investigated thoroughly and responded to.

I have been visiting my friend who had Parkinson's in The Cotswold Home for over 12 years. In all that time, I have never seen her treated with anything other than kindness and real concern for her well-being. The staff have been so good to her and I want to thank them for all they have done.

My friend came to The Cotswold Home from the hospital where she had spent 3 weeks. She cold barely walk when she arrived at The Cotswold Home. The excellent care given by the staff and the physiotherapy got her walking confidently round the home and even into the garden. She loved the excellent food and the very sociable meals with a glass of wine at lunch time.
