The Old Vicarage

I find the staff welcoming and informative each time I visit; they are friendly, and it makes one feel special. I can see that the needs of the residents are well looked after, and they take the time to have a conversation with them. A person's needs are catered for very well. The office staff keep me informed as and when necessary. It is a friendly place with outside space for residents that is safe and secure and I would not hesitate to recommend it to family and friends.

Our family received excellent support from all the team at the Old Vicarage when my parents required short-term respite care.

The managers and staff at the Old Vicarage are fantastic and could not have done more to make the respite care stay welcoming and comfortable for my parents, even freshly redecorating a double room at short notice for them. It's been so reassuring to know that, during their stay, they have been treated with high standards of care and friendliness. They have particularly enjoyed the lovely meals. Thank you - I'm very grateful.

Staff extremely welcoming and very obliging. Amenities eg. hairdresser, nails polished very good. My sister has settled very well and appears to get on well with everyone. They have various activities, music being my sisters favourite, and this happens at various times in the month. It is a pleasure to visit The Old Vicarage.

I have found The Old Vicarage Care Home to be friendly and caring. The staff are very accommodating and treat the residents with respect.

My dad was skin and bones when he arrived at The Old Vicarage. They nursed him back to health with good food, love & attention. Not a day goes by without him laughing and smiling with the staff. The whole building is clean & kept tidy. Staff have a lovely rapport with residents & their families. There is entertainment on weekdays, and residents are moved around regularly to mix & socialise with one another. The staff & management are a fabulous team, they genuinely care about their residents.

My dad is adjusting to living here. The staff are all lovely and treat him in a dignified manner at all times. They always respond to any queries I have in a timely manner. My whole family is always made to feel welcome. The home provides lots of stimulating activities.

My mother has been a resident at The Old Vicarage since January 2025. This nursing home was recommended to me due to their outstanding kindness and care. This has definitely been the case.

I honestly can't speak highly enough about the nursing home - everybody is very welcoming and friendly from the moment you enter the building until you are leaving. The staff are absolutely lovely towards my mum. The care and support my mum gets is amazing from the management team and all staff. The cleanliness of my mum's room is always excellent.

A happy welcoming home. Friendly, helpful staff. I am kept informed by email and newsletter. My aunt is very well looked after and is happy with the home.

Excellent location and people to visit. Residents are superbly cared for. Management are brilliant. Staff are excellent. Residents rooms are fully furnished. Very clean throughout the home. Meals are excellent. They make sure the residents are safe and secure. Value for money. There are a range of activities for the residents.

Full 24-hour nursing care required and carried out for quite a difficult patient. Well managed with dignity and understanding.

The rooms are comfortable and we have been able to take Dad's personal items to make it more comfortable. I would recommend The Old Vicarage to anyone in need of residential care.

I can go on but will stop there just wanted to let everyone know how happy we are.

During his 4 month stay my husband has been helped to settle into the home. The carers have been attentive and kept him tidy and medication has been administered as prescribed by a doctor. At night, one of the staff, on occasion, has been less than patient with his needs. This has been unfortunate as the other staff are very kind. Reception is always welcoming and helpful.

My mother is looked after here very well.

My father-in-law has been here for about eight weeks. We all, as his family, have been very impressed and pleased with all aspects of his care. The staff are always happy and helpful and as visitors, we are always made welcome and kept well informed. The food always looks very tasty.

All we want is for our family member to be comfy, looked after and treated with dignity.

The overall care given to my wife is good. Certain times I have to seek assistance in maintaining she does not wet herself, this seems to be when certain staff are on duty. I don't get any information on what she requires ie soap, shampoo or any clothing she needs. Medical wise the response is excellent. I have asked that when soup is offered brown bread is offered, can I please ask that such bread is available, if not then I am informed and I will bring some brown bread for the soup.

My granny really enjoys being here. She likes how lovable and well-looked after she is, everyone made her feel so welcomed when she arrived. There's lots to do, like sit in the garden, lots of activities such as pool table, tennis and much more. The food here is really good and carers are lovely and very chatty.
