My husband stayed during Oct for 4 days for respite. Lovely staff very helpful and friendly knowledgable and understanding regarding my husbands needs. Very clean facilities, my husbands room was lovely and comfortable.

Review from V W (Daughter of Resident) published on 19 November 2025 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
My dad has been here for a few weeks after a long period in hospital, he has very challenging behaviour due to his complex medical needs. The staff have been fantastic in helping Dad to settle, treating him with care and dignity, nothing is too much trouble for them. The home is very clean, the choice of meals is very good, residents can choose what they like, Dad has had the opportunity to go out with the activity team on the mini bus which he has enjoyed. A lovely welcome awaits family when you visit.

Overall Experience
We would recommend Bridgewood Mews. They are caring, respect dignity and all the staff are very helpful and friendly at all times. Residents are treated with respect and as an individual, regardless of their needs. My son feels happy and safe in their care. Families are urged to take involvement in care plans and are kept aware of everything.

Review from Lynn R (Partner of Resident) published on 13 August 2018 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Warm, kind and very caring carers more like friends, ensuring my partner is well looked after in every aspect. The management team are brilliant, nothing is too much trouble, any queries dealt with on the spot or as near as. Nurses are impeccable. I trust them 100 per cent. No worries for me and my partner has excellent care. Win-win situation. Most of all my partner is happy.
