I continue to be impressed by the standard of care that my mother is receiving. The staff are wonderful, so kind and caring and the attention to detail has improved vastly. The housekeeping staff are unsung heroes likewise the catering staff who manage to provide nutritious and appealing meals 7 days a week. My sister and I attended the Mother's Day lunch and it was delicious, we were treated like VIPs and Mom loved it. Thank you to everyone at Hollyfields, I'm eternally grateful to you all.
Thank you so much for your kind words, we are so pleased we can make such a difference, please be assured we will share this feedback with the staff.

I'm only 55 and the adjustment to my new lifestyle hasn’t been easy but I have been so impressed and reassured with the high-quality care that they provide.
The home has such a warm and welcoming feel. The environment is bright and attractive, and I can’t speak highly enough of all the staff, the professionalism and dedication of every team member shines through.
I also have to make a special thank you to the puppy and cat who have really helped me relax in this new environment, even though I have to negotiate with the cat every night for a space in my own bed.
I would highly recommend Barchester Hollyfields Care Home if you are looking for a loving and caring home environment.

My husband was only in Hollyfields for a week but the care was excellent. Everyone listened, understood and tried to provide the care he needed. The care and consideration that was also shown to me were impressive and appreciated, especially the fact I was called in as soon it was obvious that my husband was staying. They gave us space and peace of mind and provided me with all the necessities so that I could stay with him through the night.
Thank you for your comments, we are so pleased you felt comforted at these times and as you know it is the small things that count. Please be assured that the team at Hollyfields are passionate about what they do and we are pleased this was felt and noted.
My darling dad had complete dementia (Alzheimer's, frontal lobe and vascular dementia) and was tended to with so much love, care and dignity also fun! They did all they could to make Dad's final 5 months meaningful and happy. Can't recommend it highly enough.

My stay at Ivy House c/o Barchester Hollyfield's has been outstanding. The staff are amazing and I don't know how I would have gotten through the last few months without the support of the staff at Ivy House. They are very kind and caring and go out of their way to ensure all needs are met. They have supported me in moving into assisted living. I truly have made a lifetime of friendship.

Carers are always helpful, friendly, supportive, and on hand to help Mum with her specific needs when required.

My aunt has now settled in, and whilst, initially, she was very apprehensive, she realises that her care is far better than that she was receiving at home - hotel standard accommodation with 24/7 care.
Many thanks to all at Hollyfields.

I have now stayed at Hollyfields on two occasions for one week’s duration each time. The first time my wife stayed overlong when she left me, so I became anxious, which unsettled me but only for the first day. I quickly settled and was well looked after by the kind and caring staff. I met other residents and enjoyed their company. I had a lovely ensuite room with country views and excellent facilities. In all, I felt very welcome indeed. There was a pretty garden to sit in and a trip out to the local town for afternoon tea, which I enjoyed very much indeed. When I left to come home, I had a wonderful send-off from residents and staff. My second visit was even more special as I recognised the facilities, the staff and the residents I had met previously. I felt at home immediately. The anxiety of my family as to how I would experience respite has been removed, thanks to the exceptional welcome, care and facilities I have experienced at Hollyfields.

I have been a regular visitor to Barchester during the time my sister and her husband have been residents. I have always found the staff extremely helpful and efficient in the duties they carry out. The rooms are always clean and tidy, and the residents are looked after often above the call of duty. The food always looks well prepaid. I would therefore have no hesitation in recommending Barchester.

The staff were very welcoming when we arrived. They helped me and my daughter over the initial upset of putting my husband into the home and always came to talk with us as well as settle my husband into his room and surroundings. They took very good care of him.

I cannot praise the staff on every level enough. Their kindness and care for mom was exceptional. She was treated with dignity and respect right up until she passed away. We were also supported throughout moms final days which made her passing more bearable for us. Thank you, everyone.

I could not have wished my aunt to be cared for in any other home. She was treated with love and respect. The staff were wonderful and always very helpful.

My journey in Healthcare began in 2004 when I graduated with a BSC (Hons) qualification. I started my career on an NHS ward, where I gained invaluable experience and honed my skills in patient care. Over time, I transitioned my skills into medical education, expanding my knowledge and expertise.
In 2016, I decided to explore new opportunities in private healthcare and accepted a role as Deputy Ward Manager. This experience allowed me to further develop my leadership abilities while continuing to prioritise the well-being of patients.
In 2022, I made the transition into a nursing home, taking on the role of Deputy Manager. Here, my passion for the well-being of both residents and staff truly flourished. It was a privilege to contribute to creating a supportive and nurturing environment for all.
In 2023, I was honoured to be promoted to General Manager, a role that allows me to lead with compassion and dedication. My commitment to the well-being of residents and staff remains at the forefront of everything I do, driving me to continually strive for excellence in care provision.
Outside of work, I'm a proud mum to four wonderful grown-up children and step-mum to two younger children. Family means everything to me, and I cherish the time we spend together. Being a Nanna to two wonderful grandsons brings me immense joy, and I treasure every moment with them.
In my free time, I love nothing more than going on holidays with my husband. Whether it's exploring new destinations or returning to our favourite spots, I find immense happiness in discovering new cultures, cuisines and experiences. Travelling allows me to unwind, recharge, and create lifelong memories.

Hello, my name is Rebecca Chelin. Originally from South Africa, I embarked on my nursing journey in 2012, specialising in oncology. With a passion for providing compassionate care, I transitioned to the UK in 2019, eager to continue to make a difference in the lives of others. Since joining the Hollyfields team in 2023, I've had the privilege of serving as a dedicated nurse, and I'm honoured to have been promoted to the role of Deputy Manager in 2024.
Outside of work, I find joy in being a mother to two wonderful boys, who continually inspire me to strive for excellence. In my leisure time, I indulge in my love for travel and immerse myself in the captivating world of literature.
