Went for a viewing at Magna to find daycare for Mum. I walked through the door and everything felt just right. The happy atmosphere, wonderful feeling of home, caring and smiling staff and a lot of very happy residents. Was immediately offered coffee and biscuits and made to feel instantly at home. It was such a lovely place. I made up my mind immediately that I no longer had any fears about putting Mum there. The staff treated Mum like their own. Nothing was too much trouble. I have looked at numerous homes in the area and this is the one. If you are at this difficult decision about putting a loved one in a home then please go view Magna! It will take the worry out of one of the most difficult decisions you will probably ever have to make.
Many thanks Joanne for your wonderful comments about our home, the care your Mum received and the team at Magna. Your feedback will be shared with the team and thank you again for taking the time to leave us a review.

Seeing her in a comfortable room with a garden view full of squirrels and a full rota of activities to join made me sure she was in a great place for her final weeks. I looked forward to visiting with my young son and was always greeted warmly with toys for my boy. Thank you for taking good care of her.

My mum reluctantly moved into Magna following a fall which left her unable to manage alone. We were quickly able to make her room feel like home and the staff could not have been more friendly and welcoming. In just a few weeks she was beginning to settle and enjoy her new surroundings but regrettably, she declined and quite suddenly passed away. The home were excellent in her care and communication with me in her last few days.

Unable to comment on the value for money as not involved in the financial side. A quiet, tranquil nursing home in beautiful grounds where the friendly helpful staff looked after my sister with dignity and explained to me and my family the different stages she was going through which was so helpful. I have been back since my sister passed away to see the staff who were so kind and cared for her. The work to update the lounge and reception area is now modern and bright, really lovely.

We are very happy with the care taken of our relative. She has been at Magna for almost two years. The staff are very caring and genuine. They welcome us each time we come to visit and actively engage with all of the residents. The makeover, whilst disruptive, has given a fresh lease of life to the home and it feels very much like a home from home. Thank you Magna staff.

Magna Care Centre is a fantastic care home, the staff are attentive and welcoming. The setting is tranquil and picturesque in the woodlands. I would not hesitate to place my loved one at the Magna Care Centre.

The events the home hosts are very welcoming for the family. As I have a young child, the lobby area is very accommodating with children’s toys.

Staff provided excellent 24-hour nursing, personal care and kindness whilst the home coordinators and entertainment team applied much energy and great effort to involve him a wide range of recreational and seasonal activities.
We held a wake for him at the home. The staff support for this was exceptional and it was exactly the occasion and closure he and the family wanted. It was a fitting tribute to him.
Recent improvements give the opportunity to improve on what are very high standards.
I cannot recommend this care centre more highly.
On behalf of the Magna team, we would like to thank you, for your positive feedback and extremely kind comments. Although your father was only with us for 16 months, we hope we made his stay with us comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed having him as part of our community. It was our privilege to help you give him a wonderful send-off and the whole team pass on their condolences.
Although our relative was only here for a short period of time, the care could not have been better, thanks to all staff involved in his care.

When visiting my sister, she always looks neat and tidy and the rooms are clean. The reception girls are always friendly and make you feel welcome, also the offer of a hot drink on a cold day is most welcome.

With over 17 years at Magna, I lead a dedicated and compassionate team committed to delivering exceptional residential and nursing care. My background in intensive, elderly, and stroke care shapes the person?centred, dignified approach I bring to every aspect of our home.
Having progressed from Registered Nurse to Deputy Manager and now Home Manager, I have a deep understanding of our residents, their families, and the local community. I’m passionate about creating a warm, respectful environment where meaningful social connection enriches daily life. Making even one person’s day better is what motivates me.
Magna is a relaxed, home-from-home setting, and the welcoming atmosphere is a true reflection of the incredible team I’m proud to lead. Their kindness, commitment, and willingness to go the extra mile are at the heart of everything we do.
Outside work, I enjoy spending time with my large family and making memories together.
