The care my partner received during his stay was great. He was treated with dignity, a gentle humour and kindness. When he passed away, we were all given care, undivided attention and sympathy. A deep sadness was made easier by having such a wonderful staff care for both my partner, myself and my family.
Good morning Lynne, thank you so much for the positive and kind words that you given to us as a team we really appreciate this. It is always a pleasure to know we have made a difference and will continue to provide high standards of care to our residents and their families. Our sincere condolences to you and your family
Kindest Regards,

From the moment my Dad arrived he was cared for in the best way possible.
The care, respect and dignity given was over and above what we expected .
Every member of our family,friends and neighbours who visited Dad during his stay were also cared for.
I cannot put into words how grateful we as a family are to the whole team of people who work here, every single one of them truly care.
Dad sadly passed away at the beginning of December, peacefully and with the best care and dignity, with his family around him and no care home could have done any more for our Dad or our family.
We have no hesitation in recommending Orton Manor to anyone who wants the best care for their loved one , look no further chose Orton Manor
Thank you so much for your kind words its really appreciated. Our team always try to strive for the best care possible for our residents and their family's too. It was an absolute pleasure to look after your father he was a lovely gentleman with kind caring nature and had a lovely character. Once again thank you for the positive feedback. Kindest Regards,
Lisa Prigg
My mother recently passed away having spent more than 2 years at Orton Manor. My first impressions of the home when my wife and I visited prior to my mothers admission was of a home that appeared in need of some TLC. Do not be put off by this. I can say that throughout my mothers stay the staff were wonderful. All any of us really want when a relative goes into care is to know that they are being well cared for. Whilst at Orton Manor my mother received first class professional care from all of the nurses and care staff. The words I would chose to describe the staff are kind and friendly. We were always made welcome and continually kept informed of any concerns around my mothers health. My mother was happy there and as a family we have no regrets that we chose Orton Manor.
Thank you for your lovely positive comments regarding our home this is always good to hear. We always strive to ensure that relatives loved ones are receiving the care they require to a high standard and that their families are also not forgotten as they are just as important...
My husband spent a week in respite care. He was well looked after by cheerful, caring staff. I was slightly disappointed that he spent most of his days in the lounge with no company other than staff - most people stayed in their bedrooms.
Thank you for taking time to submit a review. I believe your husband stayed with us during a particularly hot week. Many residents chose to stay in their bedrooms with fans directly on them due to the hot weather and also several of our residents are cared for in bed due to their care needs. Staff...
My husband has been here a month now and I am totally satisfied with the care staff and everything I have witnessed. My husband has settled well and is being cared for so well. I was very worried after 55 years together, that it would be a difficult time for us, but the staff have been fantastic, and really looked after him. Thank you.
Good morning,Thankyou so much for your positive comments this is really nice to hear. It is nice to know that you and your husband are settled and that you have peace of mind as I am aware these are big decisions to make regarding a loved one. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you require any...
My sister has been a resident/patient at Orton Manor Nursing Home since September 2024. My first impression when I first visited was that the surroundings were drab and dreary and I wondered what care she would receive after the terrible experiences encountered at a certain Hospital, where she was a patient for some 9 weeks. My concerns however were unfounded as the staff at the care home are amazing. They are professional, kind, caring and attentive. Nothing is too much trouble for them, and for that, I am truly grateful.
Good morning. Thank you for your kind words. I am so pleased we were able to put you at ease and can understand the stress that is caused moving to a new place for you and your loved one. Our care team always strive for the best for our residents and their relatives so please ask for support if...
He has settled in very well and is very happy with the home and the level of care that he receives. He rates the food as better than before, despite previously living at a much more exclusive residential home. The staff have made all the difference and we really can't fault them.
Thank you so much for your kind words this is much appreciated by all our team. It is a pleasure to be caring for your uncle ensuring he has the highest quality of care possible. We do our upmost best to ensure that we also support families where we are able therefore, it is lovely to hear your positive feedback. Kindest Regards.
Rather apprehensive when I was first admitted residence in August 2024. But from day one I have received nothing but kind and attention from management, care staff, in fact all staff. I am so pleased with my social worker for the recommendation to Orton Manor Nursing Home, it is truly 5 stars in my estimation.
Thank you so much for your kind words this is much appreciated by all our team. It is a pleasure to be caring for you and we will continue to do our upmost best to ensure that you and your family members are taken care of to the highest standard. We continue to deliver good, hearty, homely food and...
I have only experienced the home whilst visiting my sister-in-law during the last week of November. I found the staff to be courteous, helpful and attentive. In the few hours I was there in the afternoons I found the staff were very attentive to my sister in laws needs regarding medicinal requirements I also believe that she finds the food offered to be of good quality. I found the security at the home to be excellent, needing the staff to admit you into the home and also to let you leave the premises including leaving your details in the visitor register.
Nice friendly staff, welcoming atmosphere, always helpful, offered a hot drink every time I visit and invited to Christmas lunch. I think they take care of my sister very well indeed.
The staff has also made me feel very welcome and if I have a query, I know I can ask without being made to feel a nuisance. I know that I can come home leaving my Husband at Orton Manor knowing he is safe and being well cared for.
Thank you so much for your kind words this is much appreciated by all our team. It is a pleasure to be caring for your husband ensuring he has the highest quality of care possible. We do our utmost best to ensure that we also support families where we are able therefore, it is lovely to hear you...
My mom was admitted to Orton Manor in July 2021 and was a resident there until her sad passing in January 2024. The care and attention that the staff gave not only to my mother but also to ourselves, particularly in the final moments prior to Mom's passing, was exemplary. It is true to say that not only are we grieving, but the staff are also. We can only thank the staff with all our hearts for the care and affection that they have shown. This has made our memories of Mom's illness that she has been going through for the last two years and her final moments less painful, for which we are eternally grateful.
My experience of the nursing home has been a positive one. They have been caring, kind and professional. Our relative has always looked happy, clean and comfortable. Her room was always clean and warm. Staff would pop in regularly and offer her a drink. Any queries were answered. She has just passed away, and the staff were wonderful to her in her final days and to the family, and the doctor made several visits too. A loving, caring community.
All the staff are very friendly, always go above and beyond and can’t thank them enough. They all love my husband and I know he is in great hands. The staff always call me whenever he wants a chat. It’s close to home so I can see him anytime I want to which is great.
Thank you very much for your kind review. I'm pleased that we are meeting your expectations and I will pass on your positive comments to the staff team who will obviously be very appreciative of your feedback and experience.
She originally went in for 2 weeks respite and loved it so much that she didn't want to go home.
The staff at Orton Manor were amazing and treated her so well, like a member of their own family.
Mum had had a care package at home for a few years but going into Orton Manor when she did was the best decision we could have made.
She had excellent care, was treated with love and understanding and got her dignity back.
Thank you to everyone at Orton Manor. I would recommend you to everyone.
Thank you ever so much for your kind review. On behalf of the entire staff team I would like to say that it was an honour and a pleasure to have been granted the opportunity to care and support your mother whilst she was here at Orton Manor. She will live on in the hearts and minds of the entire staff team.
Met with three staff who were outstanding. Their friendly approach to me, including the attention to COVID-19 restrictions, gave me reassurance about my dad's care. His room was clean and he looks very cared for, especially considering his age.
I was offered coffee and the staff gave my father attention.
Thank you for your positive words and review. I will be passing this on to the team. Seasons greetings.
After both my parents found themselves requiring residential nursing care in 2020, I moved them both into Orton Manor and out from their first nursing home as I was extremely dissatisfied with their care there, but now I am very happy and extremely relieved to say they are finally both receiving the very best of care. All the staff in Orton Manor are truly caring, considerate and invest a part of themselves into the care they provide. I never worry about how my parents are being cared for because I can see they are both happy and feel a great deal of affection for the wonderful staff who do whatever they can to make sure they are comfortable and secure during these and the most difficult of times. In summary, I could not recommend this care home’s provision highly enough, and I am relieved that I finally found the standard of care my much-loved mom and dad deserve. Thank you, Orton Manor, for the peace of mind.
Thank you for your lovely review of our home and the team. We are pleased that we can give you peace of mind and will continue to strive to provide the best care for your parents. I will pass on your kind words to the team.
I had never had to do this before and was extremely overwhelmed and anxious about the whole situation.
However, my mind was soon put at rest; she was very comfortable, clean and content.
The staff were all very nice, cheerful and helpful. In a short time, they got to know her and her needs.
I would like to thank everyone for their help and understanding. I hope I am not in the same situation again, but if I was, I would have no doubt in sending her to Orton Manor.
Thank you.
Thank you for your lovely review; we enjoyed your mum's visit, and we are here whenever you may need us again. I will pass your kind words on to the staff team.
The staff are absolutely wonderful. My mother is very poorly, but I am so relieved that she is at this home. She is so well looked after. I have complete faith in their experience, care and value their opinion. My mother is treated with pure kindness and respect. Thank you.
Thank you for your lovely review of the home, I will pass your comments on to the team.
