Located in a beautiful 1922 Cotswold stone manor house, Merryfield House Nursing Home is set in tranquil gardens on the outskirts of Witney market town. Formerly the home of a ‘Witney Blanket’ family, it offers residential and nursing care for up to 24 people.
The main house boasts an impressive entrance hall with a sweeping staircase to public rooms, while a purpose-built ground floor area provides single en-suite bedrooms with French windows. With an inglenook fireplace, the main lounge area is an ideal space for residents to relax and socialise in while enjoying views of the garden.
Rated overall 'Good' by CQC in December 2017 and 'Outstanding' in the Responsive category, Merryfield’s staff are all trained to a high standard, holding NVQ levels two, three or four in Care and Management, as well as customer care and training in hospitality, which gives residents that little bit extra as they and their families receive care at Merryfield.
The home's chef uses fresh local produce to provide a wonderful choice of meals on a daily basis. Residents may choose where they take their meals, be it in the privacy of their own room or together with other residents (and often friends and relatives) in the dining room.
All bedrooms are fully furnished and come equipped with an electric bed, SMART television, call bell. Telephone and Sky TV facility available on request. The home has fibre Wi-Fi available for all residents and a dedicated guest network throughout. iPad tablets, FaceTime, Zoom and Skype access enable regular communication between residents and their relatives.

Overall Experience
Thank you so much for sending me the photos of Dad. I thought the Summer party was a great success and although Dad wasn't able to join in fully we both had a very relaxed and happy afternoon together eating delicious food and sipping Pimms. He even managed a little smile for Miss Oxfordshire....
Thank you so much for sending me the photos of Dad. I thought the Summer party was a great success and although Dad wasn't able to join in fully we both had a very relaxed and happy afternoon together eating delicious food and sipping Pimms. He even managed a little smile for Miss Oxfordshire. Thank you to you and all the staff who care for him and for your efforts in including him in the life of Merryfield.
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank you all for the support and kindness which is shown to me each and every week when I visit Dad. It is very hard seeing my wonderful father gradually decline, now a mere shadow of the man he used to be. Your friendship and concern mean a great deal to me. I feel my father is a real part of the community at Merryfield and whilst he is still with us, I feel a part of that community too.
With very best wishes and thank you again.

We rate most services according to how safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led they are, using four levels:
Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
