Very caring and friendly staff.
Both my parents have been in this home, and my siblings and I have been very happy to see how they have been looked after. The home tries hard to create a homely and supportive atmosphere.

Thank you for your review, it has been a real privilege to have your parents here on the estate.

I can’t sing the praises of the home and staff here. From the owners and managers right the way across the team to the magnificent carers, they have been so helpful, friendly, kind and considerate to my mother and the rest of our family. Nothing is too much trouble and they always try to involve Mum
in the day to day events of the home.
The extra mile is in the details, extracurricular activities here are fantastic, fun and uplifting for all the residents and their loved ones.
We started with a respite stay and loved it so much Mum just never left.
An absolutely wonderful place for my mum to live out the rest of her beautiful life.

Hi Jenny, thanks so much for your kind words. The team will be so touched to hear this. It's music to our ears that your whole family are happy with everything. Thanks again.

Review from Alix A (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 12 October 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Nan and Grandad were moved into Huntingdon House, at ages 94 and 99, after living independently. Both Nan and Grandad were given exemplary care. Nan joined in the day time activities, particularly enjoying the cooking and the day trips out. Grandad enjoyed talking to the care home staff about his
life experiences, with the staff giving him time to talk.
I cannot recommend Huntingdon House highly enough. They were so kind and considerate and made the transition from living independently to assisted so seamless.
We cannot thank the staff enough, you made Nan and Grandad's lives so wonderful and happy. Thank you.

We wanted Mum to stay at home as long as possible, so the decision to move to Huntington House was very hard but has turned out to be an excellent one. The quality of care has been exceptional with an extraordinary level of personalisation. During COVID, they have shown excellent judgement managing
risk vs Mum's quality of life. I recommend them unreservedly. They consistently go the extra mile for residents and their families.

A well managed nursing home with accessible leadership. The staff in our experience were respectful, kind and caring. A variety of activities kept residents stimulated. The grounds are beautiful and well-tended, flower displays are dotted around the buildings. The menu provided was always varied but
if an individual preferred and alternative this would be provided.

Huntington House and all the staff have provided fabulous care for my mother throughout the years she has been here. Everyone is considerate, kind and compassionate to a degree that makes one realise it is not just an institution.
My mother is incredibly fortunate to be here. The food and facilities

I cannot praise this care home enough. The staff are always friendly, smiling and welcoming to both staff and family.
They were especially caring and supportive to us when my mother died, making sure my father didn't feel isolated.
It may not have the quality feeling of a 5-star hotel but feels like
a warm, comfortable home which suited my parents.

Does not "feel" like an old person's home - more like a hotel for the elderly with the bistro/bar/hair salon. Compassionate care is provided with humour, friendship and professionalism. Not the cheapest but you get what you pay for.

I came for respite care following a stay in hospital, being unable to go home and live alone. The 2 weeks spent at Huntington House has returned me to full health and I am able to leave stronger and fitter than for some time. I am most grateful to all the staff at Huntington House for their care and
encouragement. Thank you all.

An outstanding director who is very sensitive to residents. Huntington House is a special place, not only is it family run but the home is clean, pretty and has beautiful views over a forest/woodland. The rooms are comfortable with all amenities required and some lovely staff. There is a water fountain,
fish pond, ponies and a house cat. Activities and trips to join. A stylish, peaceful home with a private room to book for guests/family meals and get-togethers.

Overall - good/satisfactory one week stay. Food good, staff willing to help as much as possible as individuals. But not always as a coordinated team e.g problems with coordination of information given at the beginning of my stay e.g what underwear for each day and night. If you only nominate one or
two key people being informed of what I needed it would help avoid any confusion. May I suggest more discussions are needed before my stay in the future. Thank you.

My mother has been at this nursing home for several months and has received excellent care throughout this time. The staff - across all areas - are very professional and dedicated and at the same time, exceptionally caring and kind. Residents are treated with great warmth and dignity and in particular,
are treated as individuals. The food is very good with choices each day and a range of alternative options and the rooms are very comfortable and kept very clean. Outside, the gardens are lovely and on a level for residents to be able to enjoy easily. There is an excellent activities and trips programme too.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.788)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.788) out of 10 for Huntington House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.788 for Huntington House is calculated as follows: ( (250 Excellents x 5) + (49 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 307 Ratings = 4.788
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Huntington House is based on 26 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 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
    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 39 registered maximum number of service users is 7.8, which has been reached with 26 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.

Job Title: Managing Director Joined: 2014

Having grown up in Huntington House and spent my childhood living alongside the people we've looked after, I have a unique insight into care. As a result, I am always trying to find ways to make our care home more of a, well, home. I've pioneered a care model that breaks down the barriers between residents and staff, and have been invited to speak at industry events about the importance of relationship-centred care and creating a sense of belonging in an industry that often aspires to be hotel-like with more emphasis on hospitality than homeliness.
Pre-Covid, my own family played a big part in our home, and we are currently training our new puppy (a miniature dachshund) to be a therapy dog that will hopefully soon be coming to the homes with me on a daily basis.
I am always more than happy to chat to anyone trying to figure out the best way forward for their loved one requiring care, so please don't hesitate to contact us and ask for me if I can help in any way at all.
