Eshcol House Nursing Home is a wonderful place to live, located in one of the most beautiful parts of the Roseland Peninsula in Cornwall, an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The property is situated a very short distance from the beach, and the views from many of the rooms are truly exceptional, from the Portscatho beaches 'Tatums' and 'The Porth' across Gerrans Bay with the famous Gull Rock, Nare Head...

Review from J G (Daughter of Resident) published on 24 August 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Mum was admitted in December 2019 for respite care and didn’t recover her strength enough to return home before the Covid 19 lockdowns struck and her former care at home became impossible to organise. Despite all the challenges that followed, the care staff have maintained a lovely warm family environment where they don't just care for Mum, they care about her too.

Reply from Julie Kahn, Clinical Assessor at Eshcol House Nursing Home

Thank you so much for leaving these kind words which I will share with the team. The restrictions around Covid were a very difficult time for families and we know what a strain it has been on everyone with such limited contact. Thank you for all the understanding you have shown during those troubled times.

Review from Janet G (Sister-in-law of Resident) published on 22 August 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I found a lovely clean home with very friendly staff and very helpful, all questions were answered. You could visit any time and always greeted when you walked through the door. I think it is a lovely home for my brother-in-law to stay in and he is very happy there.

Reply from Julie Kahn, Clinical Assessor at Eshcol House Nursing Home

Thank you so much, Janet, for leaving such a kind review. Your brother-in-law has really come out of his shell lately, chattering away to us, and it's a pleasure to engage with him.

Review from June S (Wife of Resident) published on 6 July 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I have experienced nothing but a generous and kind attitude from all staff and management. I have been completely taken aback at how much effort goes into making my husband comfortable and safe. I cannot fault this home.

Reply from Julie Kahn, Clinical Assessor at Eshcol House Nursing Home

It is so lovely to read that we are doing everything so well. We do understand how difficult it is to hand over the care of our loved ones to a team of people, unknown at the time of entry. Care home selection is a bit of a gamble really, but here at Eshcol, we strive for the highest standards of care. Easy to type this, but it is something we all firmly believe in.

Review from Fraser H (Nephew of Resident) published on 29 June 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My aunt recently passed away after two years of tender care at Eshcol House Nursing Home. As next of kin, but living 150 miles away, it was important that I knew how she was doing. Thanks to the Care Control website I was able to do this on a daily basis and contact Eshcol House Nursing Home with any concerns. On visiting it was apparent that she was well cared for and she was complimentary about her room, the staff, and the food. She was indulged and pampered, describing Eshcol House Nursing Home as her hotel! There is a definite caring ethos in the Home.

Reply from Julie Kahn, Clinical Assessor at Eshcol House Nursing Home

Fraser, it was so kind of you to leave such a generous review for the home and I will of course share it with the team. Your aunt was a real character, loving her chocolate and her 'Only Fools and Horses' watching. We did our best to ensure she was kept supplied with both. She really did insist she was in a luxury hotel having a good holiday and we are happy that she felt like that.

Review from Graham K (Husband of Resident) published on 13 June 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Eshcol House Nursing Home is a beautiful residency close to the picturesque village of Portscatho, overlooking Gerrans Bay on the Roseland Peninsula, where my wife who is living with Alzheimer's resides. The Manager and all his staff team are fabulous, caring, and attentive to all my lady's needs. They all go above and beyond to create a comforting, safe environment in which she feels at home and well supported. I would thoroughly recommend Eshcol House to anyone looking to find the right place for their loved ones to be fully supported and cared for.

Reply from Andrew Kirby, General manager at Eshcol House Nursing Home

Thank you Graham for spending a few moments to complete this review. We are all very grateful for your comments and will continue to do everything we can to ensure your wife is as happy and comfortable as possible, every single day.

Review from Annabel S (Wife of Resident) published on 30 May 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My husband has been a resident at Eshcol House Nursing Home for 8 years. He has received nursing care since he arrived, as he needs 2 person care plus experienced nursing care 24 hours. The nurses at Eschol House are excellent, professional, knowledgeable and caring and have a great relationship with him. Everything is organised and timely. His room is kept tidy and clean, and all his personal needs are catered for. The management team are responsive and communicates with me regarding my husband's needs and any changes needed, as are the nursing staff too. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. When I have raised any issues, these are dealt with immediately and with excellent communication. All the staff including care assistants, wellbeing manager, chefs, cleaning and handymen are all dedicated to their work there. I have full confidence in that I know my husband is being looked after well with all his complex medical needs attended to. Thank you to all of you at Eshcol House Nursing Home.

Reply from Andrew Kirby, General manager at Eshcol House Nursing Home

Thank you Annabel for taking the time to review our service. I am so pleased we have been able to respond to your husband's needs in such a positive way, and he certainly seems very happy despite all his health issues. It's a real pleasure working with you, thank you from all the team at Eshcol House for all your input into his care and wellbeing.
