Thank you so much.
Thank you for your kind words - it was a pleasure having you to stay at The Manor and we are all glad that you are making such a good recovery.
All the staff without exception are happy, caring and cheerful. More like staying in a 5-star hotel. I could really get to love this life.

All the staff without exception are happy, caring and cheerful. More like staying in a 5-star hotel. I could really get to love this life. The food is wonderful, and the chef and staff working under extreme difficulties still manage to turn out 1st class meals, I can't praise everyone enough. The laundry, cleaners and carers, nothing is too much trouble. I wish I could stay, thank you so much to everyone.
Thank you so much for your lovely comments. I will make sure that I pass on your thanks to the team.
Mum has been treated with respect and kindness the whole time and encouraged to feel at home. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Huge transition but all went smoothly. It was for respite care, 4 weeks only at this stage but the family made very welcome at all times too.

I cannot speak highly enough of the manager and all her staff, from the cleaners, chef, handyman, care staff and the incredible nursing staff. So lucky to have found The Manor

My mother has been at The Manor since August 2021. From the minute I walked through the door, I knew it was the right place for her. She is always treated with respect and kindness, and all of the staff go above and beyond to make her happy. The food is extremely good, with fresh flowers on the table and even a glass of wine.
My mother came into The Manor unable to walk. One staff member has helped her gain strength and confidence. He expertly judges when to encourage her with a new challenge and when to slow her down a bit. Last week Mum walked all the way to that lounge with her wheeler; this would not have happened...

Mum has been at The Manor since July last year; the staff made her feel safe, secure and welcome right from the very beginning. It's such a relief to know she's so well looked after. All the staff work so hard and are so kind. The food is amazing; I visit several times per week and every visit she's eager to tell me all about the food and how wonderful it is. I'd just like to thank all the staff from maintenance, reception, housekeeping, carers, activities staff, physios, nurses and, of course, the kitchen team for making The Manor such a special place.
What a lovely review to read! We really do appreciate you taking the time to write this. It is a real testament to the whole staff team here that your mum is so happy living at The Manor. We take all our reviews and feedback very seriously and I will be sure to share this with the whole team. Thank you
Took time to get used to. The staff are really good, the food is very good, has its moments but do feel at home here.

Thank you so much for your kind review. It is our pleasure to support and welcome you into our home.
A very warm welcome on my arrival for respite care. A pleasant well-equipped room with a comfortable bed. The staff were warm, caring and friendly. On my request, the menu was adapted to my dietary needs. It was very helpful to receive some physiotherapy.

Mum has been very well looked after throughout the pandemic, which sadly is still continuing. The visiting changes have not been easy for her but we wanted to thank the manager, the lifestyle co-ordinator/activities, and the nursing team on Victoria for reassuring Mum. The excellent communication/changes of events now in place and a special thank you for setting up the FaceTime video calling facility. This has been a gamechanger for Mum as it relieves the isolation and gives her visual contact with her during difficult times. We all now feel connected as a family so thank you all especially nurses, carers and catering staff. We really appreciate all you are doing for Mum and the rest of the residents at The Manor during difficult and uncertain times. Best wishes - all the family.

I have had a very good experience during my two months in The Manor. The food is very good. I am a vegetarian and the options are very good for me. The care has been excellent and the carers are kind, friendly, capable and patient. Only they are always very busy having to answer all the bells!! It would be helpful to have three carers on each unit, not just two if possible? Because it has been such a positive time here we have now brought our 91-year-old mother to be a permanent resident here too.

This is a great place. Everyone is so pleasant and helpful. It was a great relief to find that life is in a way relaxed not at all regimented. Also, although I was quarantined there was plenty going on to interest me. I would recommend it to other people wholeheartedly.

Keeping in touch with my mum during the pandemic has been particularly important. Obviously I had to cancel my annual visit (I live in Canada) for her 93rd birthday. The time difference does not help with communication but the homes lifestyle coordinator has done a great job of setting up several...
One small thing to mention is that I think they could do with more staff, and/or more phones, particularly at the weekend as it is sometimes difficult to get to speak with someone. I know all health care services are stretched more than ever right now and know I am really appreciative of all you do for my mum.

I’m Katrina, General Manager here at The Manor and a Registered Nurse. I’ve spent over 25 years leading and supporting care services, including general nursing, rehabilitation and specialist dementia care.
I have been told that I am known for my calm, approachable style, and perhaps that’s because I believe strongly in creating a workplace where staff feel listened to, valued & supported. I believe that if staff are empowered to deliver their best, this directly impacts the quality of care that residents receive, being the highest standard of compassionate person-centred care.
I was honoured and incredibly proud to be a WAGs award winner in 2024, receiving the Superwoman award for my contribution and leadership in adult social care.
I’m incredibly passionate about my job, but when I’m not at work, I love spending time with my family, including my 3 beautiful granddaughters, as they keep me young at heart and very busy.
I also like to travel, keep fit with yoga and love to walk coastal paths with my husband.

I have been part of The Manor Care Home since 2012, starting as a kitchen assistant, where I helped serve meals and ensure residents had drinks and snacks. While working in the kitchen, I discovered how much I enjoyed spending time with residents and seeing their engagement in activities. This passion led to an opportunity to join the activities team, where I could focus on what I love most - connecting with residents and supporting their well-being.
I take great joy in spending time with residents, hearing their stories, and discovering the activities they enjoy. My goal is to keep our residents active, engaged, and happy, with fun and laughter always at the heart of The Manor Care Home.

As a Barchester Operational Trainer, I ensure that staff have the level of skill and knowledge required to competently carry out their role so that all residents receive high-quality care, and that there is a high level of impact on the quality of staff behaviour and knowledge over the long term, leading to a continuous improvement in the quality of care for the residents.
As a Trainer, I actively involve my learners, and my continued focus is to ensure all learning and development activities and inductions are run to a consistently high standard across my 6 homes, alongside meeting external requirements. I have just celebrated my 10th year with Barchester Healthcare, and I love my job.
It’s not just about the teaching but the learning that takes place. All our learners on their first day are taught to identify our Barchester values so that they can incorporate them into everything they do. As a trainer, I strive to meet the needs, abilities and aspirations of my learners. I believe it’s about inspiring learners to help them change and develop their personal, social and professional skills to the best of their ability and take responsibility for their own development.
