Review from Stuart L (Son of Resident) published on 26 June 2026 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

After searching for a couple of years to find 'respite care' with all the care needs my mum requires, I feel lucky that Amberley House had availability when it was needed. From our first calls and visits, then at every interaction from day one, all the team couldn't have been more helpful and caring. All the staff clearly enjoy their roles, making sure the residents are looked after and enjoy a positive daily routine.

I found my visits to my uncle always pleasant from staff's manner and attention given to him.
It often created a feeling of family care.

From chefs personal involvement over options for a meal, to nurses always showing a healing smile. They made an example of high standard.

We cannot thank the staff enough for the care they gave and shown towards our mother while she was in their care. Unfortunately, mum was terminally ill and has recently passed away. The compassion the home showed towards us as a family we cannot thank them enough for that.

Review from Lesley L (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

After ten days in hospital, mum was discharged to Amberley House for end of life care. Mum was only there for 8 days before she passed away. During what was an horrendous time for our family, it was such a relief to see mum so well cared for. Amberley house was clean, friendly and the staff were wonderful. Each one showed my mum and us care and dignity. It was a great comfort to know that she'd been well looked after for this short and last part of her life. A big thank you to all who work so hard to look after our loved ones.

Overall Experience

My mum moved into Amberley House on 15th May 2025. Since moving here, mum has settled well. I am very impressed with the way the service is run. The care and support Mum has is first class. The home is spotless. There is a menu up on the wall, so I can see what she is having on that day. Staff are very accommodating and welcoming. They have many activities, which mum likes, especially shopping. I couldn't wish for anything more for her, and I am truly happy in the service she has.

Review from Susan P (Wife of Resident) published on 24 November 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
My husband had booked 2 weeks of respite care, but on his discharge from hospital on 8th September, he was terminally ill, we were reassured that the room was his as long as we needed - it was almost 7 weeks. The managers and all staff were professional, attentive, good company, with the skills necessary for his care.

The palliative/end-of-life care was excellent, with appropriate medication. The freedom of visiting enabled friends and family to spend valuable time with him. His only criticisms were "thin toilet paper" and sometimes being missed by the tea/coffee trolley. There was great care and dignity when he died.

Review from W H (Daughter of Resident) published on 23 October 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Everyone at the care home is extremely professional. Staff and management were very accessable and always gave time to talk you and keep you updated. Staff encouraged Dad to attend activities in such a way that he was delighted to tell us all the new things he had been trying. Everyone did everything they could to address things Dad wanted to make him feel really cared for and considered. The atmosphere created here is more like a large family, each Staff member going above and beyond.

I would say to any relative who is hesitant about there family member going into a carehome that Amberley will take all your worries away and leave you with irreplaceable memories.

Reply from Sharon Gerrans, Manager at Amberley House Nursing Home

My father was brought to Amberley House for end-of-life care. Although he was frail, he was very comfortable and recognised the excellent care he received from all the staff. Whenever I visited, I was always able to discuss dad's condition with any member of staff who all gave me whatever time I needed. Many thanks for making Dad's last days peaceful and dignified.

Overall Experience

My mother was placed at Amberley House Nursing Home during the last 10 days of her life. She was given excellent hourly care. All the staff I met were warm and showed great empathy for my mother and visiting family. They were able to accommodate my mum's specific needs, from tender personal care to giving her food she could manage and looked forward to in her final days. We were able to visit anytime and were always greeted with kindness. The manager was very kind at the end as were all her staff.

Reply from Sharon Gerrans, Manager at Amberley House Nursing Home

Thank you so much for your kind words. It was an honor to be able to care for your mother in her final days. We always try to give everyone we care for the dignity and respect they deserve, and it's always so rewarding to hear that we have been able to do that.

Review from Beth R (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 1 November 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My grandmother was a resident between July 2024 and October 2024 where she received palliative care. We as a family were very satisfied with her care. The staff were polite and friendly and developed a good relationship with Gran and the family. Gran was always well presented and the staff helped to maintain her dignity and keep her comfortable. The staff communicated well with us. The room was a little small but the home is currently having an extension built. We couldn't have wished for a better place. It was a big worry for us when our Gran needed to move to a care home but it turned out that we didn't need to worry at all. Thank you to everyone at Amberley House for making a difficult time a little easier. We will be forever grateful.

Reply from Sharon Gerrans, Manager at Amberley House Nursing Home

Thank you for your kind words. I am delighted that we were able to care for your grandmother in her final stages of life. We prioritise ensuring that all our residents are treated with dignity, respect and kindness. Supporting family is also a part of this and it is always rewarding to hear that we succeed in achieving this.

Review from Bridget B (Daughter of Resident) published on 7 August 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My mum arrived at Amberley House Nursing home for end-of-life care. From the moment she arrived, she was calling it home. She bonded immediately with all the Staff who all treated her with dignity, compassion and respect and appreciated Mum's cheeky sense of humour. Mum was encouraged to join in with the activities, she was nervous at first, but with encouragement from staff, she was soon touching a snake, holding a tarantula, winning bingo, baking and wine tasting all of which she thoroughly enjoyed! Staff always kept family informed on Mum's progress, with regular health updates, they respected her dietary requirements and supported her to get back on her feet, support was offered whenever needed. Towards the end of Mum's life staff were always available to offer support to family whenever required, day or night, and ensured we had all the information that was needed. I really can't thank all of the Team enough for all the happy times Mum and visiting family had at Amberley House.

Reply from Sharon Gerrans, Manager at Amberley House Nursing Home

Thank you so much for your lovely words. We miss her smile and cheeky sense of humour, she could always be relied on to join in with all the activities with enthusiasm.

Have always been very satisfied with the care my father-in-law received during his near to a year and a half stay at Amberley House. Staff were always very friendly and approachable. There was a homely atmosphere and my father-in-law enjoyed his stay there. I would not hesitate to recommend Amberley House.

Thank you for your kind words. Your father-in-law is greatly missed by both staff and our other residents, he was always such big part of the home. We were thrilled that he was able to return to his own home.

The resident has always been so well looked after here at Amberley. Staff have been kind to her and to her various visitors and have always made us feel welcome. Whenever she had a problem there was someone to help, immediately. At all stages of her stay she has been cared for appropriately, professionally and lovingly. I couldn't praise the team highly enough, they all work together so well. I highly recommend this care home.

Mum went into Amberley House for end-of-life care and it was the very best we could have hoped for.

Review from Carol W (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My dad transferred here for rehab after 2 weeks in hospital (where he wasn’t progressing). Amberley helped get him back on his feet, working on his program to rehab him.
All the staff are friendly, caring and wonderful. They looked after Dad as if he were their own and they couldn’t do enough. Once getting to know what he liked, they made sure he didn’t miss out on anything. Food is delicious and fresh and you get to choose from a daily list for each meal. They also tweaked and adapted a few things for Dad around his diabetes and personal likes. There are activities and guests that visit too as well as the social lounge so you don’t need to be segregated in your room.

Management wise it is a very professional, friendly and superbly run home. Any questions or help were dealt with and I was never made to feel like we weren’t important. Dad was very happy there and he wouldn’t hesitate to return if need be.
