Review from Sue T (Daughter of Resident) published on 19 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Ellenborough looked after my mum for over 9 years. They not only looked after her, but also us a family too.
The care was next to none, the food was always good quality and tasty. Friday fish & chips was the best ever!!
Mum unfortunately passed away recently and they looked after her until the

end, they were amazing. I cannot recommend this home enough, its homely, caring and approachable.
Ellenborough became mums second family, but they became an extension of our family too. I will not only miss my mum, but also everyone at Ellenborough too.
So thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you did for my mum and her family xx

The attention to my father is of a high standard, he is cared for with compassion and friendliness. This is also always given to me as the visiting relative. I have never had any issue in contacting either the carers or the administration department and they are always happy to give me information

either by phone or face to face.

Review from Madi T (Wife of Resident) published on 13 February 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

It is such a lovely home, the staff are wonderful and very caring, they go above and beyond for the residents' needs. The manager is very welcoming and friendly, always happy to help and support. My husband was a resident there for almost two years. He was treated with kindness, respect and consideration.

I used to go three times a week to see him and all the time he was clean and well looked after, the freshly cooked meals were very tasty and well balanced. He had a very nice and bright room that was cleaned daily. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ellenborough Care Home to anyone and would like to thank all of the staff and the manager for their care and support.

Reply from Hayley Bruce, Administrator at The Ellenborough Nursing & Residential Care Home

Thank you for your lovely and kind words, we are touched to hear how happy you are with the care and love we gave to your husband.

Review from Beth M (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

All the staff are very friendly and helpful, it was a true home-from-home. I could visit my mother when I wanted and with a quick phone call in advance, the staff made sure Mum was settled and ready in her room for my visit. Towards the end, Mum became less and less able with several illnesses but she

was always treated with respect and dignity, and as she maintained her capacity to make decisions she was always asked how she wanted things done. I was kept fully informed of all that was happening when she was ill and when she was at the end of her life I was telephoned allowing me time to go and sit with Mum for a little while before she died. Everyone was so kind, bringing us cups of tea and biscuits when we visited and allowing us time to be with Mum before she was moved to the funeral directors. I cannot fault anything that they have done for me or my mum during her couple of years staying with them. Mum was always happy and well cared for and I would highly recommend Ellenborough Nursing Home.

My elderly mum and dad live with me and they needed daycare along with an assisted bath. The care staff and management staff were so helpful and friendly in getting this arranged. They understand so well the issues and challenges elderly people face. They were absolutely lovely to mum and dad. They

do an incredible job and I could not praise them enough.

Overall Experience

Mother-in-law moved to The Ellenborough Nursing & Residential Care Home from a residential home and after some time spent in the hospital. I visited many in the area and then found Ellenborough. I was very impressed with the manager, she is extremely kind, caring and sensitive to not just the resident's

needs but also the family. I was shown around and I found the rooms that she showed me were very tastefully decorated and extremely clean, fresh and kept to a very high standard. The secretary is extremely helpful, kind and efficient. Both the manager and the secretary make a very good team.
The staff have been very efficient and polite to both residents and family. The food is of good quality and high standard. I am always offered refreshments when I visit.

Overall Experience

Over the last twenty years or so, I have gained experience with many nursing homes where relatives and friends have stayed, all are very welcoming for the initial period but that seems to fade a little as time goes on. The Ellenborough Nursing Home were welcoming from day one to the final day, always

happy and helpful, professional and understanding, the kitchen accommodated my sister's tastes and she was happy and content during her stay.

Reply from Carol Schroeder, Administrator at The Ellenborough Nursing & Residential Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We pride ourselves on making sure all our residents are welcomed and made to feel special and part of our family, even if that means tweaking the menu on the odd occasion.

Review from Sally W (Goddaughter of Resident) published on 15 March 2023 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Ellenborough Nursing Home is the most wonderful home. All the staff care so much. My godfather has been a resident for approximately eleven months and settled almost straight away after what was a stressful and challenging five months for him. The staff are so committed to all their residents and give

each one of them the personal attention they need, they are not just a name. They are also so very supportive of the relatives too. As a relative, it is important to know your loved one is cared for as though you are caring for them it is better than winning the lottery. At Christmas, Easter, Valentine's day all the staff are spoilt. When or if I need to go into a home, this is where I want to be!

Overall Experience

What's lovely about The Ellenborough is a combination between the warmth of the people who work there, and the welcoming, homely interior. The management and staff make a great team and clearly enjoy working there. Throughout Mum's stay, they really catered to her every need and her wishes, which is

so important. Nothing was ever too much trouble. I knew I could phone anytime, and they even took the time to set up virtual visits. They are a dedicated team who treated Mum with dignity and respect, right up until her passing. Mum was an amazingly lovely lady, but knowing she was in the safe hands of the caring management, nurses and staff. My brother and I know we made the right decision in choosing The Ellenborough.

Overall Experience

Mum has been placed in Ellenborough Care home after a long stint in hospital. She has been a resident here since January 2022 and now has to remain in full-time care. The manager and owners have made it possible for Mum to stay. The manager is a kind and caring lady, who puts her residents at the heart

of every decision she makes. She is proactive for resident safety, she is always available to chat to and if you need her, she is open, transparent and honest. All the other members of the staff and nursing team we have encountered, are all so approachable and friendly. They are always smiling and happy which makes every visit warm and inviting. I cannot speak highly enough of this care home and all its dedicated staff. I'm so pleased my mum is settled here, it gives me peace of mind and helps me sleep better at night, knowing she is safe and being cared for by kind warm loving people.

Overall Experience

My Mother was moved to this nursing home from another local home. Within 3 months, she has put on almost a stone in weight and is now out of an at risk group. She is well cared for, very happy and a picture of health for her 91 years. It’s a fantastic nursing home, with excellent staff from housekeeping,

cooks, carers, nurses to the management team. It’s a relief that when family visit her and the time comes to leave, we do not go home and worry. Peace of mind is a wonderful thing.

Overall Experience

Unfortunately because of Covid, things have been hard for all relatives. With our loved ones in nursing care homes, we have not been able to visit, so we have had to leave our loved ones in the hands of others. My husband and I have been lucky as Mum has been at Ellenborough for a number of years, so

we knew that she would get the care she's always had. I cannot answer the activities as with Covid, it’s probably not been as normal, however, in ordinary circumstances, the home provided various activities. The food has always been excellent and I have been known to have a roast potato.
