Staff are caring. The rooms are a little small but very clean. The food and service are both excellent. The nurses are on 24/7 call and there is a very efficient care system which is rather rare and can be moved around with the patient. Very good physio care is vital and the Old Rectory has achieved this by careful selection of a carefully chosen expert pool of chartered physiotherapists. They are carefully chosen and vetted.

My father moved to The Old Rectory Care Home, initially on a respite stay but he immediately felt welcomed and comfortable and it was his choice to become a permanent resident. All the staff are always cheerful, with a pleasant word to residents, visitors and each other. Nothing is ever too much trouble, including reminding Dad frequently to press the call button if he wants something! Visitors are welcome anytime, the signing in and out system is straightforward to use. Activities are very varied, both regular events - chair exercises, board games and bingo, and the opportunity to turn a 'notable date' into a celebration for all, making residents feel part of an active community - Bonfire Night, Divali, Burns Night, Chinese New Year and Valentine's Day are some of the recent events.

My father has been a resident at the Old Rectory for over three years. We have had brilliant support as a family with his transition from him living independently alone to a care home environment. I cant say he 'wanted' to move into care, as he believed he was quite capable of being in his own home! The fact is he could no longer do that without a full time live-in carer. Which he equally did not want. Thanks to the help and understanding of the Old Rectory, Dad (slowly) made his transition and recognises the value of having a specialist team there (24/7) to help him. He has a relatively formal side to his character which must be challenging for some people to deal with, but it is lovely to see his relationships with the different team members at the Old Rectory who have each found their own way to engage effectively with him. You can't make it up with Dad, and it is great to see the enjoyment he gets from each little interaction with the team.

Our Mum was very poorly when she arrived at The Old Rectory, and from that minute the staff could not have been kinder, more caring, or more concerned for her welfare. She has been treated with dignity and huge respect, and all her needs were taken care of, and she was brought back to being much more like herself. The room is spotless, the food is remarkable, and the nurses are always available if we have any concerns. We wanted our Mum to be at The Old Rectory when she became unable to look after herself with help at home, and so were so happy when she was offered a room. The home is really well run and responds to its community creatively and sensitively. Thank you all.

Mum looks better now than she has done for years as she is being well cared for, has delicious nutritious food, regular medication and frequent physiotherapy to support her physical needs. She has daily opportunities to meet up with other residents for drinks, meals and activities and this social interaction is so important for her mental stimulation. The staff at The Old Rectory are all lovely with Mum and treat her with respect, care and kindness. She has formed friendships with staff through chatting as they go about their work and is genuinely interested when staff share some of their family background with her. My experience of visiting Mum is always positive, staff greet me with courtesy and are always cheerful and friendly. We are very lucky that The Old Rectory could offer Mum a room and provide the care that she needs now. Needless to say Mum is very happy living here.

My mother spent over four months at The Old Rectory, and it was a wonderful and amazing experience for her. She went there for convalescent care after surgery, and the team did a fantastic job. Every staff member, from reception, cleaning, and catering to care, nursing, physio, and management, was exceptional. The manager is always accessible, actively engaging with everyone, which reflects the team's supportive and collaborative nature. The kindness, compassion, care, dignity, and respect they provide are unsurpassed. There are a variety of food options available and a range of activities throughout the month. I would recommend this home to anyone seeking nursing and convalescent care in a place that truly feels like home.

Since my mother has been at The Old Rectory, her health and well-being have improved immeasurably. She was made to feel welcome and valued from the outset. Staff and the manager took the trouble to find out what is important to her and how best they could help her adjust to her new home and a different way of living. They are not only kind and thoughtful, but the care they provide demonstrates they have in-depth and insightful understandings of the needs of older people.
Family members are also made to feel welcome and supported. It is reassuring to know that my mother is living in such a beautiful, clean and secure environment surrounded by people who really care about her. The Old Rectory has a comforting family feel, where the days' events fit in around the needs of the residents - a lesson many corporate-run care homes could learn from. It is little wonder my mother decided on the day she arrived that she didn't want to be anywhere else.

After a fall which resulted in a fractured pelvis, we were advised that mum, aged 102, would need more care than we could provide at home and we set out to find a residential home for her. After looking at several in the area we chose The Old Rectory, as it is small and homely, welcoming, warm and clean throughout. All the staff are very friendly and nothing is too much bother for them, mum is well cared for and is very happy there. Her room is always clean, whatever time of day we visit. The food is plentiful and excellent quality with alternatives always available. Activities are on offer in the afternoons for any who wish to join in but there is no pressure to go. We have not regretted our decision and would not hesitate to recommend them.
