We are very impressed with my mum's care at Summer Lane Care Home, nursing and facilities are also excellent. Mum is enjoying her stay at Summer Lane. Enjoys the coffee shop and socially with her co friends at the care home. Mum has dementia and is coming to terms with this is her new home. The staff
have been excellent. We have requested for mum to change rooms when available having garden access which benefit her wellbeing. Currently she not able to open her door to the garden because there's no security to stop mum leaving the care home (overlooking the garden)

I have been a permanent resident at Summer Lane Care Home since 2022. In that time I have found the staff here take their duties seriously at all levels. The carers complete their work cheerfully and well. The receptionists are welcoming and answer queries willingly. The catering staff will provide
whatever the residents request within reason. The rooms are cleaned daily to a high standard. Visiting families have the use of the coffee shop and courtyard. Minibus outings are arranged by the activities team. Whatever level of care is needed it is well catered for.

After visiting various nursing homes in the area my son & myself were told about Summer Lane by a friend. We visited, what a difference. The reception area and receptionist were extremely helpful. We were shown round and what a difference. The care nurses were all enthusiastic about the residence. The
decor in the bedrooms, lounges etc was immaculate. We did not hesitate putting my wife in the care of all concerned. Many Thanks.

Review from Peter B (Husband of Resident) published on 30 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife became resident at Summer Lane Care home in late 2022. From the beginning she was treated with care, thought and love helping her to settle quickly to her new life. Carers helped with her personal hygiene without compromising her dignity, ensuring she is dressed in clean clothes and if they
become soiled, to change them in a matter of minutes. The activities co-ordinators are quick to find new things to keep minds and bodies active to enhance the quality of life. The food is good, nutritious and presented well. The nurses provide medical cover in an efficient way but when the alarm goes off, they act with speed, to see none of those under their care are in danger, or if need be, to take action as appropriate. Staff are approachable and would rather resolve issues as they occur than allow them to fester. Regular meetings are held between all parties to report on issues regarding the home, to hear ideas, and clear issues which remain unresolved. A very good home I commend it.

My husband was in Summer Lane for end of life care. It is an amazing place. It is really clean and welcoming. All of the staff are very friendly and kind. The rooms are immaculate. They have en-suite's and really nice furniture in them . The facilities are great including a hair salon and a nail bar.
It was a shame my husband had not gone in earlier, when he was not so ill. You walk in to reception, and it is like a hotel, the receptionists are all really friendly. Then you meet the nurses and the caregivers and they all acknowledge you and make you feel special. The gardens are really pretty. All together this is a really lovely Care home. The manager should be very proud of himself and all of his staff. A pleasure to have been able to visit my husband there , knowing he was being well looked after and cared for. I am so grateful My husband spent his last days there Thank you all

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mother had a short period having respite care at the home before she passed away but in that period my family and I would frequently visit Mum in the home
We all were so impressed with the care she received and the home itself. It is a clean peaceful environment with so many lovely areas to sit
to watch tv, chat etc and lovey garden area... a number of places to have quiet time
The meals provided looked very appetising, sadly because of mum's condition she wasn't up to eating very much but what we saw the menu and saw Mum eat a little of the cuisine served, we were very happy with the food provided
The Care Home provided our much loved Mum with the best care and we are truly grateful to all the staff there for their commitment to giving our Mum such sympathetic care

My mother has been in Summer Lane since August 24. She is well looked after, she is treated as an individual and all her care needs are facilitated with dignity and respect. I have no complaints at all. My mum is always happy and chatty clean and tidy. The cleanliness of the home is exceptional and
it always smells nice. Her room is lovely and homely having brought her stuff in from home to make it her room. All the staff are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble for anyone. The reception staff are also very helpful and happy. I love visiting my mum and chatting to staff it's like our extended family. Summer Lane you shine. I will always recommend your home.
And the fine dining experience was absolutely amazing, and would definitely recommend this if they have a special occasion and want to celebrate with a meal with family. I'm happy that my mum is happy and that's what matters. The transition from home to care home was such an impeccable move.

Mum was placed at the home initially for respite but is now a permanent resident. It was clear from the very start that she was going to be looked after and her care needs met. All the staff are friendly, caring and empathetic not only to Mum but to the family too. It's peace of mind to know that she
is safe, clean and comfortable. The home provides an excellent environment with clean rooms, smart communal areas and excellent facilities. The care staff are fantastic - however, if some had better English that would help!

Whether it was the warm-hearted friendliness of the reception staff that greeted people visiting their loved ones, the kind and efficient care given to my father by the health care team, or the attention given to the cleanliness of the home itself. On the regular upkeep of the gardens situated at the
centre of the home's buildings. Summer Lane provided my dad in the last year of his life with an environment that was safe, caring and comfortable. Here the patient mattered, my dad was not just another sick person- a number on the list. The Summer Lane team treated him as if he were their own and we will always be so thankful to them for that.

Summer Lane is modern clean and fresh whilst still giving a welcoming feel.

Mum has been here on the dementia floor for a little over a year now and is loving it. She is well cared for and comfortable. The staff are friendly and caring but sometimes communication can be an issue, especially when they phone my father, who is slightly deaf and struggles to understand accents
on the phone.
The home itself is so well thought out and the decor and furnishings are lovely. We especially like the cafe downstairs as it gives Mum the feeling she has been 'out'. It has also been a great place for my father to meet the families of other service users and share experiences and support each other.

Thank you for your lovely review, I will pass on your comments to my staff. May I suggest that next time you visit please meet with our Deputy who will be more than happy to discuss how to make the communication with your father better going forward. So glad you are all enjoying the coffee shop it has become a lovely meeting place for families and residents.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.680)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.680) out of 10 for Summer Lane Care & Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.680 for Summer Lane Care & Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (251 Excellents x 5) + (56 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 325 Ratings = 4.68
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Summer Lane Care & Nursing Home is based on 27 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 120 registered maximum number of service users is 24, which has been reached with 27 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.
