Cottenham Court Care Home

My mother's individual needs are carefully considered and thoughtfully accommodated. Her personal hygiene is maintained to an excellent standard and her room is always kept spotless and comfortable. The staff regularly go the extra mile to support family requests and ensure my mother remains involved and stimulated. Cottenham Court is not just a care home; it is a caring community. I would wholeheartedly recommend it to any family seeking exceptional care for a loved one.

My brother was a resident at Cottenham Court Care Home for about two years and was treated with excellent care and attention at all times by staff and management. His physical needs were attended to with great care and the doctor was called when needed. My brother was an academic and the activities provided were not of interest to him unfortunately but in every other respect he was made to feel comfortable and looked after well.

Mum came to Cottenham Court Care Home for a week so that we could go to see family in Cornwall. She was very positive about the stay and said she would recommend it to others. She even said she'd be happy to stay again or for longer. She praised staff and facilities. I found staff to be very friendly and kind. A positive experience.

Just a few short words re my mums 14 month stay at Cottenham Court - she was wonderfully looked after by all the staff, managers, the lovely ladies on reception, the incredible nurses, carers and all the other staff. My sisters and I knew she was warm, safe and well looked after. Many, many thanks.

Mum died last week after 14 months in Cottenham Court. I cannot find words to express gratitude for the professional care she received but also the kindness, patience & understanding. The food was superb too. Also the care that we as relatives received every visit from comfort when we were worried or upset & the very welcome coffee & biscuits after 90 mins travel.

Enjoyed meeting old friends. They all remembered me from before when I was here. Love them all.

Almost without exception the staff are professional and friendly in meeting my mothers needs and the day staff have been very helpful of late and the entertainment and atmosphere is great due to a lot of hard work

My mum entered the home at the beginning of Sept 2025 after a few months of unsettling change. She immediately felt right at home and was welcomed by all from the start. My mum (and I) have been extremely happy with all aspects of life at the home and we cannot think of anything we would change. All the staff (and I mean that) have been excellent and genuinely care about their residents. I would thoroughly recommend the care home to anyone - in fact I did recently to a friend and her mother has now become a resident.

The is a variety of activities each day, but find it's mostly suitable for the female residents as there are more in the home than male. The rooms are adequate and have been decorated to a good standard, but are on the small side.

I would highly recommend.

Their treatment has enabled me to make a wonderful recovery from a thoracic operation and to given me confidence and peace of mind during my week's stay. Peace of mind also for my daughter and friend. Thank you!

I have just spent 2 weeks at Cottenham Court convalescing after an operation. I could not have chosen a better home. The staff were all so welcoming and kind, nothing was too much trouble. With regular meals and a little exercise I was soon greatly improved and the last few days seemed like a holiday! It would help if the information folder contained a map/plan of the building for those able to explore.

Thank you for having me at short notice for respite care after my knee replacement operation and subsequent re-admittance to the hospital 3 days later when I collapsed. The care was just what I needed: efficient, caring, and in a calm atmosphere. I needed a downstairs room at my home, and my husband and family were able to paint and decorate it and have a carpet laid for when I returned home. I am especially grateful to the staff who supported me so well and, during conversation, gave me some very useful medical advice.

Cottenham has been fantastic for my mom, who is battling with deteriorating mental health due to a brain tumour. The staff across the board have been caring & compassionate. I'd highly recommend CCH. The communication with us has been excellent.

Our precious mum moved into Cottenham Court Care Home in July 2024. She never wanted to end her life in a nursing home but, after being ill, was no longer able to be independent. Mum was receiving palliative/end of life care. All the staff, including nurses, carers, cleaners, kitchen staff, activity staff, maintenance and admin were so kind and caring. They made, what was an extremely stressful and difficult few months, much more bareable. They were so thoughtful towards all of us who visited on a daily basis. We cannot thank them enough.

Despite the works, Cottenham Court Care Home is still coping very well. Well done.

I stayed at the home for 14 days after a hip replacement operation. I was warmly welcomed, and looked after very well by all members of the staff. They were cheerful, kind, and attentive. The food was flavoursome! I am very grateful for the care I received. Many thanks.

This care home has such a welcoming atmosphere, from the first time of visited, all the staff were friendly and clearly proud of where they worked. The rooms are just the right size, and personal preferences are taken into consideration, such as changing the orientation of the bed to enable easier access and a better view of the TV! Mum was here only a couple of months but her outlook and social confidence were transformed after many years living alone. She happily joined in all the social activities on offer and loved the bingo sessions in particular. All the staff, not just the care staff but also the catering, cleaning and laundry staff and admin team had the residents' needs at the top of their concerns, and Mum flourished in their care. The level of care given to Mum to accommodate her disabilities was exceptional, and the care and compassion we received from Cottenham Court upon Mum's sudden passing was amazing. I have no hesitation in recommending this home.

The home is light and airy with lovely outdoor areas.

The staff also met families' needs and were always available for updates and comfort.
