My brother was a resident at Old Wall Cottage Nursing Home, for a number of years, until his passing on August 30th. My daughter and I visited him on numerous occasions and always found the staff to be caring and respectful of the people in their care.
I was always kept informed about my brother's health and well-being, including any little mishaps he might have had. My brother was an ex-stuntman, and could, at times be very single-minded and somewhat difficult to handle, but the staff seemed to have the ability to calm him down, and on most occasions keep him happy.

Our family feel that his stay at Old Wall Cottage, was made as comfortable and happy as possible, under the circumstances, and their care and attention was second to none during his stay there. We loved my brother and obviously wished he was still with us, but we are thankful that during the final years of his life, he was so well cared for and loved by the staff at The Old Wall Cottage.

Thank you for your review. It was an amazing pleasure to meet your brother and care for him during his time with us at Old Wall Cottage. We know how much you loved your brother and it was lovely to see the smile on his face when you visited. We were lucky to meet you and your daughter and thank you for your support.

My mother was taken into care after several hospital visits. Her medical prognosis was not good, but nearly three years later with their care and attention she is still with us. They inform us of any problems and deal with them immediately.

Dad took a while to settle in when he first arrived. We were kept informed of Dad's condition and made aware of any incidents (such as falls) and the deterioration swiftly. The staff were kind and respectful when he passed away.

it was care and cleanliness, which is the most important thing. My cousin said when he visited, it was the first home he had been in that did not smell of urine or disinfectant.
There was always plenty of staff around when I visited, my mother was always clean and tidy, and the staff were very kind to my mother, who walked around the home all day and myself.

My mother has been a resident at Old Wall Cottage for about three years, whilst very poorly, the home and care have been excellent, providing 24-hour care to her. She had a lovely room fit for purpose and all the facilities for her needs. The carers were lovely and catered for all her needs with care and dignity for a 94-year-old with dementia, and towards the end, sadly, bed bound. The home is set in lovely gardens in a stunning countryside area with plenty of parking and is catered for any visits promptly. Unfortunately, my mother became a resident at the start of the Coronavirus, so I could not see her for some time, but they provided all the strict measures required that were needed during these difficult times. They provide many activities for the residents, albeit my mother was perhaps not able to participate. Food appeared adequate. I can thoroughly recommend the home and the staff to anyone facing this decision.

Mum was placed in Old Wall Cottage Nursing Home almost a year ago, after being hospitalised and a couple of months of unsuccessful therapy aimed at getting her back on her feet and has improved greatly in that time.
She arrived underweight, in a confused state, and newly confined to a wheelchair.
She is now back to her old self due to the treatment she receives.
From my initial meeting with the manager and ongoing contact with all staff, I have been impressed with their friendliness, interest and dedication to the residents.
Many residents have dementia, and Mum does not, but all are treated with the same kindness, respect and good nature.

On my weekly visit yesterday there was an entertainer in one of the lounges. I was allowed to sit with my friend instead of the usual visit in her room.
It was such an enjoyable hour. The entertainer had a good rapport with the residents and involved them in his choice of song. Many of the residents joined in the singing or were just tapping along to the music. This was encouraged by the staff who were also singing and dancing along.

Old Wall is an exceptional care home. The staff are warm, extremely friendly and highly diplomatic in all the difficult situations they face. My father entered the home following a severe stroke and we could not be happier with the kindness and consideration they gave him. Despite his immobility, they found a special chair so he could be taken outside during the summer. They showed incredible love and attention as his situation became more complex including advice and help with all the administration and assessment of grants. They equally accommodated visits at any time as our situation became more serious and nothing seemed to phase them. From making sure they played him music he liked to always having had a good conversation with him. In the last weeks we were clearly advised with chats with the nurses and managers and when the end came one of their superb carers had sat with my dad throughout the night. It is outstanding.

My husband was moved into Old Wall Cottage Nursing Home in June this year. He has Alzheimer's and other health issues.
After being moved five times in the previous 12 months due to health issues and Covid he arrived in a highly agitated state.
His challenging behaviour was initially problematic to the home. However, they persevered with medication changes and settling him down and he is now very much improved.
I always find him shaved and in a clean and tidy state. The home is homely and clean and the staff are very caring and professional.
