Review from Valda C (Wife of Resident) published on 11 June 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

From the moment my husband arrived at Newlands for respite care, the staff were welcoming, attentive and incredibly supportive. His needs had increased following a long hospital stay, but the team made sure he was well cared for every step of way. Over the seven weeks he spent there, we saw real improvements

in his mood, appetite and mobility. He especially enjoyed the meals, often dining with other residents in the communal dining room, enjoying events, especially the music ones. One member of staff built a strong rapport with my husband which made a meaningful difference to his experience. I would highly recommend Newlands to anyone in need of respite care. The staff go above and beyond to provide comfort, dignity and a true sense of community.

Overall Experience

What a fabulous location. The footman was off duty! But the welcome and ambience of people and building could not have been surpassed. I was so happy that my friend has indeed found a home from home - we lunched together, better than a luxury hotel by far. And our meal was superb in every aspect.
Thank

you for looking after my friend.

Overall Experience

My mother, who has advanced Parkinson's Disease, stayed at Newlands for a week over Christmas. When the rest of her family were staying locally. This enabled Mum to join in a family fun but remain safe. Newlands was fantastic from start to finish. The wonderful team of carers could have not done more

to ensure that Mum had a happy stay. The care was exceptional, so attentive and kind. The setting is beautiful - the view from her bedroom was lovely! Newlands does feel like a home from home.

Reply from Liz Lawrence, Operations Director at Newlands of Stow

Overall Experience

Newlands really is excellent. The staff are very good - carers, domestic, nursing, concierge and admin all good. They actually care about the service they provide and form positive relationships with their service users. This was especially important in Mum's final year when they really did everything

they could to make her as happy and comfortable as she could be.
A lot of events, social events, outings all helped. The regular visits from penguins and donkeys and other care animals were very special.

Reply from Liz Lawrence, Operations Director at Newlands of Stow

Thank you very much for your review. It was our great privilege to care for your mother and we miss her still, as she was such a part of Newlands for a long time. On behalf of the team, we wish you all the very best.

Review from D P (Daughter of Resident) published on 3 September 2024 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mother has lived in an assisted living apartment in Newlands for three years now, and has been taken care of by all the staff with exceptional professionalism, kindness, humour and warmth. As her needs have increased, the extra medical care and attention she receives has been excellent. Newlands

feels like a big trustworthy family, not a conventional care home, and my Mother feels so much less vulnerable for it.

Reply from Sandie Preece, General Manager at Newlands of Stow

Thank you for your wonderful kind words, Newlands prides itself by giving a family feel with amazing care. I will make sure all of the staff receive your review.

Overall Experience

Newlands is a very special place. From the minute you walk through the door, you can see how the staff go above and beyond to make the residents feel at home. The fine dining is exceptionally good and the stunning gardens are always immaculate. Rightsizing to an apartment was the best decision made

by a dear friend. He was unsure about leaving his large family home but as soon as he was unpacked, he joined in with the social events and thrived by making new friends. He regularly entertained old friends for lunch, so proud and impressed with the food that was produced on site. Having the care support with cleaning and laundry also seemed to give him a new lease of life.
When his health deteriorated the care support was excellent. The staff were so respectful, caring and kind; I can't recommend Newlands highly enough!

Reply from Sandie Preece, General manager at Newlands of Stow

Overall Experience

The care received by my father during the last few months of his life was beyond exceptional. The nursing staff and carers treated him with the utmost dignity, filled with affection and humour. The management dealt efficiently and sympathetically with every situation. I could not recommend Newlands

too highly.
Thanks to the three ladies - magnificent!

Overall Experience

My relative was a resident in Newlands of Stow from 30/04/2021 until she passed on 04/02/2023. We highly recommend Newlands of Stow as it is managed and run to the highest of standards - from the ambience of the home, the decor and high-quality furnishings, catering with daily menus and personal and

medical care and support services. The staff are well qualified, efficient and caring. Shortly after moving to Newlands my relative felt very much at home and was happy, confident and reassured by the care she received. Visiting was also a pleasure as we were warmly welcomed and well-treated.

Overall Experience

I enjoyed my experience at Newlands (rehabilitation for one week after a hip replacement) very much, especially enjoyed taking my lunch outside and being able to experience the tranquil view and lovely gardens, which are perfectly set out to provide a little exercise for rehabilitation. The drawing

room and dining room conservatory are lovely rooms. Thank you.

Review from P V (Wife of Resident) published on 20 April 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

My husband's care during the last 11-weeks of his life was excellent. Although his needs were complex, every attempt was made to deal with them, and my only complaint would be that his nutritional needs could have been addressed with a bit more care and initiative. Medically, on the other hand, we were

involved every step of the way.

Reply from Lucy Biggs, Operations Director at Newlands of Stow

Thank you for your comments. It was a privilege to care for your husband. We are delighted you and your husband felt supported during your time at Newlands, and the care you both received was dignified and of a high standard.

Newlands have looked after my mother who was fairly tricky with amazing patience. The dignity and peacefulness that they gave her when she was dying was fantastic. The manager and her team looked after us during her death with such care and helpfulness. We were looked after and kept informed all the

way through. Thank you.

Review from Kim D (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 October 2021 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My father was discharged to Newlands from Hospital when it became evident he would not manage at home and was deteriorating rapidly physically. He was at Newlands for a matter of days when he became end-of-life care. The staff were fantastic and attentive and he received the best care possible. All

his family were very grateful for the way both Dad and my Mum who was with him throughout were looked after. We could not praise them or recommend them highly enough.

Reply from Lucy Biggs, Operations Director at Newlands of Stow

Thank you Kim for your comments, we were very honoured to be able to help you and your family at this time, especially as he was a local gentleman. It was so beneficial to both your parents the time you and your family were able to spend with them especially in your father's last few days.

I came to Newlands of Stow having recently been bereaved and feeling very fragile and bruised and completely exhausted. From the first moment I arrived, I was wrapped in kindness and care, nothing was too much trouble and the sensitivity I was shown at all times allowed me to rest for the first time

in months. Having had no appetite, the delicious meals were delicious. The three weeks at Newlands of Stow helped me so much. Thank you!

Review from Mary C (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 June 2021 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My Mother was very happy living at Newlands of Stow, initially in her own cottage and for just over two years in the Nursing Home. The continuity of being in a familiar environment was extremely helpful when Mother moved into the Nursing Home as she was still surrounded by people that she knew and trusted.

All the staff were kind considerate and respectful at all times which was a great comfort to me. Newlands of Stow offers a superb environment with exquisite gardens, a beautiful terrace, excellent cuisine, a lovely coffee shop and a variety of imaginative entertainments. I would highly recommend it.
