Review from Pamela and Brian H (Cousin of Resident) published on 13 February 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our Cousin was in need of a Residential/Nursing Home she lived in Eastbourne in her own home, but at the age of 92 began to become very ill. We made a decision in 2014 to encourage her to move nearer to where we lived.


We came upon Stowlangtoft Hall in this journey and were immediately impressed

with the building and set up of a Nursing Home that looked at the person as a whole and allowed them to be in charge of their own minds, within the bounds of what they were capable of.


The whole ethos of the Home was exactly what she needed, she had a beautiful room that looked out over acres of beautiful rolling countryside, she loved the skies of Suffolk and the beautiful sunsets, there were plenty of activities she could have gone to but she chose to stay in her room. It was hugely brave of a 92yearold who had lived her life for most of it in a different County to take this step but she took it bravely.


The last 2 years plus were made easier for our Cousin at Stowlangtoft Hall.

Review from Diane M (Daughter of Resident) published on 23 January 2017 Submitted via Website • Report

The factors that led me to choose Stowlangtoft Hall for my mother were...
a) The family ownership and hands-on presence of family members on a day to day basis.
b) The high number of long-serving nurses and carers.
c) The very spacious, quiet accommodation and peaceful surroundings.
d) The warm,
friendly atmosphere.
All these factors remained constant in the very nearly 4 years that my mother lived at Stowlangtoft Hall. The overall standard of care that my mother received was high - I sensed that all those involved, really did care about her and did their best to make her happy and comfortable. There was never a day that I worried about my mother's safety and I took great comfort from this.

Review from Patricia W (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 August 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I needed to find a place for my 96 year old mother to have short-term respite care after she was discharged from hospital, and we had no advance notice of this! We contacted Stowlangcroft due to its location, and they arranged for a place on the same day, with their representative visiting to do an
assessment within a few hours of our enquiry. This was marvellous service, and a great relief that they were able to react so quickly. My mother’s stay provided a super respite environment, and meant she could return home with confidence after her 3 week stay.

Review from Richard B (Son of Resident) published on 15 March 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother spent her last months in Stowlangtoft Hall and was looked after caringly, skillfully, respectfully and with great dignity. The staff were wonderfully attentive, to both my mother and ourselves when we came to visit. The building and grounds are extremely impressive and imposing, in a beautiful,
quiet, peaceful and relaxing country setting. Visitors are always made welcome, there is even a playpark for visiting children and nice walks for people and dogs.


Inside the impressive building, all the necessary nursing equipment and facilities are on hand. The lift to the upper floor is tiny, to fit into the architecture of the building, but it is adequate for a wheelchair and a carer. There is a well-stocked library, comfortable communal lounge, and a study, amongst all other usual facilities.


However, it is the staff (directors, manager, nurses, carers and support personnel) that make the home the lovely, warm and welcoming place that it is. I thoroughly recommend it.

We have found Stowlangtoft Hall to be excellent in every aspect, all the staff have been extremely attentive and caring including the head chef and his staff, who not only prepare excellent food but go beyond that with there care and friendship towards mum. The home itself is a wonderful place, well
decorated and comfortably furnished, entertainment is good and varied. Management are open and take on board anything that is discussed.

The chef takes such special care with my meals. They are full of flavour and beautifully presented. Every day he is here he comes to check that everything is alright. I enjoy the musical activities here. I feel really safe here and couldn't be in a better place. My daughter and her husband looked hard
and long and really couldn't have found a better place for me.

Review from P M (Husband of Resident) published on 18 January 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The majority of the staff here are friendly and caring as are the management. The facilities are excellent and nothing is too much trouble. Food is plentiful and well prepared.
The premises are clean and well equipped.


My only criticism is that there appears to be no training for the care staff

in the transfer of disabled patients or understanding - lymphedema stockings and suprapubic catheter fitting are two examples. I had to do this job on several occasions until the staff understood.

I spent December there for respite care. The staff and nurses were excellent and cheerful. They addressed all in their care by their Christian names and were willing to help. I would certainly recommend the nursing home.

My husband spent a month respite care in the home and was well cared for and all the staff and owners were helpful, cheerful and caring at all times. We would certainly use them again.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.863)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.863) out of 10 for Stowlangtoft Hall is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 17 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 4.938 for Stowlangtoft Hall is calculated as follows: ( (183 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 195 Ratings = 4.938
  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 4.925 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Stowlangtoft Hall is based on 17 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.925
    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 47 registered maximum number of service users is 9.4, which has been reached with 17 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.
