The care my mother, Beryl received throughout her time from Oct 2023 to her passing 10th September 2026, was beyond our expectations. The kindness, compasion, the dignaty when looking after Mum was always above and beyond. On Mum's last days, I moved in Cromwell Care Home to be able to be by Mum's...
The care, love and support for Mum to the end was amazing and heart felt by all.
Dad and I have had the same for Mum from day one 23rd Oct 2023 to 10th Sept 2026. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your kind words, which I will share with the team. Mum was truly one of a kind and a joy to care for, we loved to see her and dad on his regular visits, always such a gentleman popping in for a chat, and he is always welcome to come and see us anytime. Mum will be truly missed by us all but we are grateful for the wonderful time spent caring for her and the memories shared.

The staff are always friendly, patient and compassionate, and they treat her with dignity and respect. It means so much to our family knowing that she is surrounded by people who care about her wellbeing and make the time to get to know her as an individual.
We would highly recommend this care home to other families looking for somewhere their loved one will be looked after with kindness and compassion. Thank you to all the staff for everything you do for our great nan - it is truly appreciated.

An excellent care/nursing home with caring and friendly staff. Situated at the end of the High Street in Huntingdon making it easy to visit on foot, by car (has its own car park) or by public transport. My mother has settled in very nicely and is enjoying the care she is receiving.

Cromwell Care Home is a beautiful home, with the most caring staff giving a family vibe to the home, its residents and its visitors! After spending sometime there recently upon visits, i can honestly say the care is at the most highest standard, always! The staff are so loving, welcoming, supporting, hardworking and friendly bunch i've ever come across. I could not recommend more, all staff there are doing Gods Work, every single day. They ALL deserve a pay rise! They are the best care home ever.
Thank you so much for your very kind words, I will ensure that these are shared with the team, who always strive to give their best. Many thanks.
My mother recently passed away. She was a dementia patient and had been in the care of Cromwell House since 2017. Over this lengthy period of time the care and support provided to my mum was exemplary. She was not always the easiest person to deal with, especially in her early years in the home,...
Whilst there had been a number of staff changes over the time my mum was with the home, I found all staff to be extremely good and they ensured continuity in her care .Nothing was too much trouble for them.
Thank you for all that you did for her.
Thank you so much for your kind words, it was a privilege to care for your Mother and we will remember her fondly. I will pass your feedback to the staff team.

My husband came to Cromwell House from hospital for the last 3 weeks of his life. The nursing care was exemplary, and the compassion and concern for him from the staff were fantastic. My family and I were fully supported by the lovely staff as we faced his death, and they went above and beyond expectations. There was such a warm and caring atmosphere on the nursing unit, and we felt very comfortable with my husband ending his days surrounded by his family and some truly lovely people. Thanks to all at Cromwell.
Thank you so much for your very kind words, I will ensure that these are relayed to the staff team.

My husband was cared for with great kindness and dignity. Visitors felt welcomed and when I stayed with my husband the night before he died, I also was cared for with numerous cups of tea and biscuits. Any queries were dealt with. Care was taken trying to find my husband something he was able to eat. Overall a wonderful service. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your kind words, it was a pleasure to care for your husband and I will ensure that your feedback is shared with the team. With kindest regards, Cromwell House Team.
Lovely home, all aspects of the home are really nice. All staff are good at what they do, from the carers to the cleaners. Very friendly, helpful staff, nothing is too much for them.

The staff are extremely caring, kind, gentle and extremely friendly. I am, without fail, welcomed warmly on each visit with a clear awareness of who I am and who I am visiting - this is of great value to me personally. My father has advanced dementia and displays verbal and physical aggression in his behaviour, which the staff cope with brilliantly! My only slight issue is that there are not always carers available to help and it may take a while for them to be free from other tasks - this is no complaint on them as they are constantly busy. Staffing, I appreciate, is a difficult balance.
Good afternoon,
Thank you for your feedback, all feedback is greatly appreciated and enables us to review any concerns and improve our services. I will ensure I share your kind feedback with the staff. If you would like to discuss your concern further I would be happy to meet with you to discuss.
Kind regards Sylvia and the team
Mum went for respite and was looked after so well. She had two lovely weeks and was really happy and enjoyed her stay. Lovely, clean establishment and all the staff were so lovely and friendly. Thank you for looking after Mum.

The staff were all friendly and welcoming as well as attentive. We really enjoyed our visit and will be back! Our aunt was in far better shape than we expected which is in no small measure to the care and attention you give her. Keep up the good work and thanks.

Mum came to Cromwell House Care Home for end-of-life care. She was only at the home for 3 weeks but was treated with care, compassion and dignity from day one until the very end. Mum's feelings and needs were considered until her last hours. We were always treated with kindness and consideration when visiting and continually updated on Mum's health and treatments. It was a difficult situation made better by the wonderful staff.
Thank you for your kind words, It has been a pleasure meeting you and other family members, albeit for a very short time. I will endeavour to share your lovely comments with the team.
Thank you Cromwell House Care Home for looking after my wife whilst she was with you, everybody was caring and helpful. The carers made regular visits day and night. 'Thank you', 5-star service.

Since my brother has been at Cromwell House Care Home in February 2022, his health and mental well-being have improved immensely. He can now walk on his own with a walking aid and can wash himself and dress at times. The diet he enjoys has played a big part in his improvement. He is happy and talkative and obviously enjoys his surroundings and the very caring staff.
Thank you for your lovely comments which have been shared with the team. It has been a real pleasure watching your brother achieve his ambitions and become more independent and confident in himself over time.

We as a family are so happy that we chose Cromwell House Care Home. Our mother has received excellent personal care from the loving and caring staff who go out of their way to assist with her care and also make sure that we are fine too. We feel they have accepted us into their family. The staff are loving and caring at all times and very attentive to her needs. The home is clean and is currently being refurbished. We as a family cannot fault this care home. My mother's room is also very clean and newly decorated, with new curtains, there is a comfy chair and ensuite in the room. I as a daughter feel safe leaving my mother to go home. The staff are so beautiful and caring which is so very reassuring when putting and leaving a loved one in a care home.
Thank you so much Judith for taking the time to acknowledge the team and how caring, supportive and hard working they all are. Your comments have been greatly received by the team.
The home went above and beyond today, it was my mother’s 85th birthday. One particular member of staff and her entertainment team decorated the room lovely providing music food and cake which was amazing, so my family and I could make some great memories with Mum, she was so happy thank you.

Thank you Nicola for your lovely review, which will be shared with the team. I am so pleased that everyone enjoyed the afternoon, especially your mum.
My wife went into The Cromwell for respite breaks for several years and then for the final two years of her life. I have never had any fears for her safety or well-being. Whenever I visited she was clean, tidy and well-turned out. She was usually to be found in the lounge in the company of her...
My wife was treated like the individual she was and that was very important to me. Also to retain her dignity.
If I asked for an update from the care or nursing staff they were able to do so without digging into the computer. They just knew her. She was obviously quite close to some of the care staff and they were to her.
Nowhere is perfect and, like many care homes, this one struggled during Covid but the current staff and manager are at the top of their game. I am grateful for the care that they gave my wife and I would use the Cromwell again without a second thought.
Thank you so much. The staff team are very thankful to you for your kind comments.
