St Martin's is Where mam spent her last 2 years. We moved her from another nursing home and were astonished at the difference. Mam was treated with love and dignity at all times.

Thank you so much for your kind words and wonderful feedback. Providing a warm, supportive environment where our residents feel cared for is our priority. Your recommendation means a lot to us.
My mother moved to St Martin's about three years ago, with cuts on her arms and legs following a series of falls. The nursing care was excellent, and she soon looked better. She is able to go into the lounge each day, with assistance from the staff who encourage her to keep moving using her...
St Martin's offers a variety of enjoyable activities and entertainments (such as music and singalongs), but it is the kindness and friendliness of the super-efficient staff that make it such an outstanding care home.
Thank you for sharing your positive experience. We're thrilled to hear that your mother and husband have received compassionate care and support from our staff.

Thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review.
Mom moved to St Martin's Nursing Home in June 2022 following years of illness involving hospital admissions. She loved the home immediately and settled in straight away. We had been concerned about Mom and her care for the previous two years so to find St Martins gave relief to us and lifted us to...
I looked at a few homes when we were considering Mom's care but knew St Martins was a place where she would be happy. We can't thank them enough.
Your mum was a lovely lady who quickly settled into St Martin's and will be sadly missed.
My mother was at St Martin's for over two years, having suffered a stroke aged 94; she subsequently died there in November 2022. Choosing a home for your parent is an almost impossible thing to do, but in Covid times, it was especially hard. I know that we made the right decision in trusting St...
This is a quality home because it is a home, not a hotel. Relationships with the staff and the residents are kind, encouraging and always reassuring.
They gave additional support on the night of Mum's death and the days afterwards; St Martin's staff provided help with sensitivity to the family.
Throughout her time at St Martin's, the nursing staff provided further reassurance with expertise and professionalism. All of the staff at St Martin's put dignity and comfort as a priority.
Thank you so much for your lovely words. They will be shared with all the team. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
The staff were cheerful, kind and caring, and I felt confident that my mum was well looked after. The nursing and personal care were excellent. We were always supported and welcomed when we visited.

It was my mother's decision to move to a care home. St Martin's allowed us to visit and discuss the community/rooms and care. Mother was very happy in the nursing home, making friends with fellow residents and staff. The staff were very good at keeping us abreast of mother's health and needs. As she began to fail, the care was exceptional - her comfort and dignity were paramount.

Thank you, Wendy, for your kind words, much appreciated.

Mom arrived with a host of needs and the staff set about creating a routine and environment to meet every single one. But more than that I felt she was cared for - the wonderful staff there really tried to make things better for her, to make her comfortable and to be engaged. The patience shown to my mom was boundless, even at her most difficult times. As time went on, Mom's needs changed. At St Martin's, they notice and adapt the care they give - sometimes just subtle changes that a family member may not even think about but can make all the difference to the residents.
I will never be able to praise the staff at St Martin's highly enough for the love and care they showed my mom, right up to her last moment. Everyone I know is aware of how fantastic I think they are.
Thank you for leaving us such a wonderful review, our staff will be thrilled to hear your positive feedback.
The short time Mum spent at St Martin's was very good. Although due to covid-19 visiting was limited, I know Mum was being cared for. The staff are on "the ball" and can answer queries. Nursing staff are so hands-on and professional. Cannot comment on the food as didn't see any being served, but...
The short time Mum spent at St Martin's was very good. Although due to covid-19 visiting was limited, I know Mum was being cared for. The staff are on "the ball" and can answer queries. Nursing staff are so hands-on and professional. Cannot comment on the food as didn't see any being served, but would imagine it to be good. Room was comfy and clean. Mum was treated with dignity on her last few days, and the staff treated us with compassion. Highly recommend.
We really appreciate you taking the time to leave us such lovely comments.
We couldn't have chosen a better nursing home for our mother. Mom was a resident for nearly 2 years and the care she received right up to her death was second to none. The staff were so friendly, kind, helpful and caring. Nothing was ever too much trouble and they always made us very welcome. It...
We couldn't have chosen a better nursing home for our mother. Mom was a resident for nearly 2 years and the care she received right up to her death was second to none. The staff were so friendly, kind, helpful and caring. Nothing was ever too much trouble and they always made us very welcome. It really felt like a "home" and I think that was mainly down to the staff and the fact there was only 24 individual rooms. I cannot thank them enough and would have no hesitation in recommending this wonderful place. Thank you so much.

St Martin’s is spotlessly clean, incredibly safe and secure, all the staff are empathetic and friendly and the management fully approachable and Mom always enjoyed her meals too! The staff are always happy to chat and let you know how Mom has been, which is always reassuring. St Martin’s has a lovely family and community feel.
Mom received both high quality and consistent care at St Martin’s and knowing this was a great comfort to us as a family.
St Martin’s has a great activities schedule, regular visiting singers and also trips out to the local café and an occasion pub lunch! These varied activities are so important to the resident’s well-being and Mom thoroughly enjoyed these when her health allowed.
We, as a family, would be happy to recommend St Martin's.
