They took care of my uncle very well. We couldn't think of anywhere better for him stay! he was there for over six months. He loved the gardens and the lake. They always made us feel welcomed whenever we visited before COVID.

I have been a resident here for nearly three years. I have a good-sized room overlooking the gardens. The staff are very helpful and kind and there are not too many changes in staff. No activities at the moment because of COVID.

My father was lucky enough to come to Arbrook House, three weeks before the COVID lockdown, and I feel blessed. The rooms are tastefully decorated and furnished. They allow residents to personalise them. The communal areas are brilliant and well used. The grounds and the gardens are amazing. The staff
are very kind, understanding, sympathetic and caring. They go above and beyond in their care. The leadership is awesome, and the staff are so dedicated and hard-working. Arbrook House is just brilliant, and every staff member is a superhero, in my opinion. I cannot thank the staff enough for keeping my Dad safe and well during this pandemic. I would have no hesitation in recommending Arbrook House to others and indeed already have done so.

I moved my dad here further away from me after he stayed in 2 awful care homes, one of which unfairly evicted him after a complaint. The manager was exceptional at listening, offering solutions and being available. The staff who looked after dad, notably one member of staff, were kind and compassionate.
The house and grounds are amazing and I actually found it relaxing to visit dad here rather than anxious as with other homes where staff were overworked, defensive and stressed often.
Dad died during these difficult times in the care home after being discharged from hospital without adequate weaning off a feeding tube. I was able to visit Dad at end of life, wearing PPE and after taking a COVID test. My advice to anyone looking for a nursing home rarely does any take residents on outings, even outstanding homes, they are too busy caring. I bought a mobility car for dad and took him out every week.

Arbrook House is a wonderful care home where the staff have a great attitude, a real compassion and devotion to the residents and an excellent team spirit. The challenges that 2020 has thrown at Arbrook (operating during a global pandemic) have been met head-on and everything possible has been done
to keep the residents safe. Where possible garden visits for relatives have gone ahead, and the residents have been entertained, nourished, sustained and supported.
The managers shine as leaders and the nursing staff, entertainment staff, support staff, gardeners and cleaners have all excelled. The gardens themselves have provided a spectacular sight to help the residents stay positive when unable to make their usual outings to see friends and family. We have every hope that my mum who has been through some difficult times will have many happy years in front of her under the care of Arbrook.

My father was a resident at Arbrook and he sadly passed away on Saturday the 29th of February 2020. As his son, I spent the last few days leading up to his passing pretty much living at Arbrook. I have to say I was completely blown away by the real human compassion, kindness, care, warmth and heartfelt
feeling the staff showed towards my father. So many staff members that he had connected with and that had connected with him, which I never knew about due to not having spent significant time myself at the nursing home, we instead often ponder unnecessarily if things are in fact OK without having had the experience first hand. We as a family know that my dad was very much loved at this nursing home and the staff here deserve medals/should be commended for the work they do in looking after our parents/relatives in their later years. My huge thanks to the fantastic Arbrook team.

My mum was taken into care due to a very quick and unfortunately terminal illness. She spent her final 4 weeks of her life at Arbrook House Care Home and she could not have received better care and been more comfortable. All of the staff are amazing, so professional and yet incredibly friendly and empathetic.
Nothing is too much trouble and they made sure that I was eating and looking after myself too during a very tough time. I will be coming back regularly as a friend of Arbrook House.

My father lived at the home for almost two years and was very well looked after for all of his stay.
He passed in early 2020, the home could not be more supportive in his last day’s and when he passed, help with all that needed to be done.
Overall, just excellent.

I cannot speak highly enough of Arbrook Care Home. They have worked very hard to help my father settle in. Every single member of staff has shown care and empathy and are very respectful that this is my father's new home.
The activity programme is varied and innovative and run with immense enthusiasm.
The home is very well run, and the staff seem very happy in their place of work, creating a great atmosphere.

Arbrook House provided my mother with the most beautiful care during the last weeks of her life. The nursing care was superlative, she was treated with love and respect, along with the highest nursing standards (as were her relatives).
Alas, she was unable to take advantage of the beautiful grounds,
the restaurant and lounge areas.
Every member of staff was warm and welcoming and we cannot thank them though for their dedication and high standards. They will be forever in our hearts. A simple massive thank you.

Arbrook House were very supportive and attentive for my dear nana and her last days. The staff were brilliant and very caring. It is also in a fantastic location and the grounds are wonderful for taking a walk and getting some fresh air. All in all a very lovely place and very good for looking after
their residents.

We found Arbrook House a welcoming, cheerful care home. The nurses and carers really help residents feel as comfortable and at home as possible, attending to their medical needs but also endeavouring to make their stay as pleasant and varied as possible. The extensive grounds with lake and wildlife
are a bonus.

Mum had a stroke about a year ago and went from being fully independent in her own home to wheelchair-bound and requiring 24hr nursing care. Since becoming a resident at Arbrook House her outlook on life has improved considerably and she is adjusting well to her change in circumstances. I simply cannot
thank the manager and his team enough.

The staff at Arbrook House have been outstanding. They have all shown a great deal of empathy, kindness and humour in getting to know my mother and helping her to settle and get involved in the life of the home.
We have been impressed and very reassured by the standard of care she received as her
dementia progressed. For a period of time, she caused a few headaches by taking herself off on "walks" that meant the staff were continually having to track her down. The manager went to enormous lengths to ensure she was able to continue these "walks" while staying safe. She felt at home living at Arbrook House and enjoyed getting to know and sharing jokes with the staff and other residents. As she became less mobile and communicative, she was cared for competently and with genuine kindness. We will always be grateful for this.

From the outset, there has been nothing but the most professional and caring support for my aunt's end of life care.
Everything was catered for with a smile and nothing was too much trouble at this difficult time.
Everyone was very thoughtful and kind. I have nothing but admiration for staff (all
the staff) who assisted in making her final days very comfy.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.757)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.757) out of 10 for Arbrook House Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.757 for Arbrook House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (377 Excellents x 5) + (91 Goods x 4) + (13 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 481 Ratings = 4.757

  • b) 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Arbrook House Care Home is based on 41 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 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 44 registered maximum number of service users is 8.8, which has been reached with 41 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Job Title: Resident Experience Manager

Joined: 2012

I joined Bupa in June 2012 as a weekend receptionist at Wingham Court care home and stayed until 2017 when I was promoted to financial administrator and relocated to Arbrook House. In January 2024, I was promoted to resident experience manager and financial administrator at Arbrook House.


I enjoy working closely with residents and colleagues as well as meeting and supporting friends and families. It's fulfilling to be able to make a positive impact on their lives and create a supportive and caring environment.


Outside of work, I am very family-oriented and enjoy spending time with my loved ones. In my free time, I enjoy outdoor activities such as walking and meeting my friends for a catch-up. I also enjoy cooking different dishes for my family. I live locally and I appreciate the close-knit community and the opportunity to be involved in local events and initiatives.
