Barchester Hunters Care Home

throughout my stay was exceptional.

homely environment for residents and their families.

care within the home.

The dining room offers nutritious, home cooked meals with plenty of choice.

We have found this home wanting for nothing, every one is so kind and helpful, the aesthetics are second to none, & when the time comes we will see you all again, hopefully not too soon!!!

The care and comfort afforded to my 90 year old mother, whose mental capacities are declining, continues to be of the highest standard. The majority of staff are helpful and considerate as she becomes more and more difficult to care for on a daily basis. My brother and I are grateful for the care staff, maintenance staff, housekeepers, cooks, cleaners, admin staff and management for their continuing care afforded to our mother. I would recommend Hunters Care Centre, Cirencester to anyone who have a loved one needing care.

My first stay at Hunters was in 2004 related to respite care after a hip replacement op. It proved to be an excellent experience and therefore after a heart attack in June '26 I had no hesitation to return for an extended period of respite care. I can only highly recommend this care home to others.

Very happy with the service, food and care. Always used my name, staff were kind and friendly.

All this has benefitted to my speedy recovery.

On 8 April, my brother and I wanted to organise a birthday lunch for my father who is a resident. As it was a lovely sunny day we wanted to have the lunch outside, we also wanted to bring our own food. The head chef was really helpful in allowing us to do this, including keeping the food warm before we ate, rearranging the table location and being around to check all was ok. The waitering staff were similarly helpful and professional, through out, as was the person on reception. There is a general sense of nothing is too much trouble. Thank you to Ciprian, the Head chef and the whole team!

I fell down whilst walking in the grounds and returned with some nasty grazes to my arms and nose. U was spotted on my return, and nurses met me in the office and cleaned me up, much to their pleasure!

All staff go out of their way to be helpful, accommodating as well as flexible. They make a point of thinking about the individual's needs and do their best to accommodate them. Nothing seems like too much trouble and the friendship demonstrated by the staff looking after my father is so important to him and makes his life more rewarding and enjoyable. Definitely home from home!

This I'm sure is being led by management who makes all new residents are welcomed and introduced.

We are very pleased with Hunters Care home, my mother has settled in very well. The staff are very attentive and learn the likes and dislikes of their patients very quickly. The home is light and airy and very clean. Mum says the food is delicious.

Overall we were very happy for Mum to be here as it had a homely feeling and the staff were jolly and caring. We were welcome to visit at any time and if we had an issue, the staff were mainly quick to respond. The light airy rooms and common areas made Memory Lane feel open and bright and it was great to be able to walk in the grounds for some fresh air.

I was only resident at Hunters for 2 weeks' respite whilst family were away on holiday. I was made very welcome by staff and residents. The food was good although a big meal again at 5:30 pm was too close to lunch, all the sandwiches were available. I enjoyed walking around the grounds (needing a bit of TLC). All the staff- day and night - attentive and helpful.

I spent a week in Hunters Care Home from 10.4.25. It is my second visit to Hunters and I can recommend it 100% The management and staff are all kind, caring and courteous. Hunters is kept spotless and the food is very good.

My mother was very anxious initially about going in for respite care, this is the third time she has stayed and she is very settled and has made some lovely friends with other residents and staff. Everyone is so friendly, all the staff remembered her name when she arrived and they all made every effort to ensure she was well looked after, safe and comfortable. She will be back whenever we go away.

When I first came after hospital care, with pneumonia and a damaged tendon and ligament I developed a heavy cold and being weak this went onto my chest. This had taken me into a very bad condition and with the help and encouragement from your staff, my family, and your physio, pulled me through from a zimmer frame and being very very weak to smiling and joking and walking with a stick. Building my strength and confidence back and having the ability to go back to my own home. Many thanks to all who helped me from a bad place to where I am today, big big big thanks. Will miss them all.

My father had a very challenging Christmas and New Year having been hospitalised with pneumonia. At very short notice the Hunters team were able to step in to support. The care they gave during his 4 weeks of recovery was excellent. They were friendly, supportive and knowledgeable and I really don't know how we would have coped without them. A huge thank you from my Dad and our family.

I can't recommend Hunters Cirencester highly enough, an excellent care home of the very highest order with wonderful staff.

The staff are lovely and caring, nothing is too much trouble. We always felt Dad was safe and cared for. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for care. The manager was exceptional and professional in every area. I must give a special shout-out to one of the nurses in charge, you knew if she was asked to do something it would be carried out and not forgotten.

It was such a relief to be admitted so quickly and efficiently to Barchester Hunters Care Home when I became too ill to look after myself at home. I felt safe and cared for and as I got better, started to enjoy the lovely ambience, facilities and pleasure of being in such a very pleasant environment.
