Review from Neil J (Son of Resident) published on 30 January 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum suffers with late stages of dementia and care at home was becoming too much. Martins care home took on the care of my mum very quickly. I cannot praise them enough for how well the staff made her feel at home and put all her family at ease. Very flexible with family visiting and very polite and
make you feel welcome.


They have many activities and also extra perks that my mum has enjoyed very much. They have made the change for my mum seamless and very efficient. Don't think i could recommend a better place. If someone is looking for a great clean place and great staff this would have to be one of the best out there.


Can't thank them enough for what they have done for not just my mum but also my dad.

Reply from Nicky Cox, Administrator at Martin Hall Nursing HomeThank you so much for your positive comments and we are so pleased to hear that you and dad are pleased with the care your mum is receiving. I will pass all your comments on to the rest of the team. Once again thank you for taking the time to review us.

All the staff are helpful, polite, and the home feels like a proper community. Staff are interested in residents' lives prior to entering care. They go the extra mile. Arranging for photographs to be framed and put up on a resident's wall, etc.
My father absolutely loves his room, is always complimenting
them on their care, helpfulness and the activities organised. I couldn't ask for more! A huge stress and concern was removed knowing he is so happy, healthy, loved and having the best time possible.

I found the care and compassion of everyone we had contact with, was really reassuring. Everyone know about him, his needs and wants and also they were keen to understand him as a person and interested in his past. I really felt like they were all trying to do their absolute best to make him as comfortable
as possible. Martin Hall really does know how to care in the truest sense. I would definitely recommend them.

My mum moved here from a previous care home, staff were so welcoming to my mum and all of her family. She settled in well. Mum looked so peaceful here. Food looked amazing, staff were very empathetic, caring. Her room was lovely and spacious, always clean and tidy in the home. Staff rang if any updates.
Mum passed away several weeks ago , staff were so supporting towards her family. I can't thank the amazing staff here enough.Wished we had chosen here in the first place. Thank you Alison, Alina, Bogdan and all other staff who took care of my mum.

My husband was admitted to Martin Hall with delirium and challenging behaviour. The manager and team not only dealt with my husband in a very caring way (even with the abuse he gave). They supported me in everyway. I am pleased to say he is now home with me. I will be given respite allowance and I hope
Martin Hall will have room for him. I don't want him to go anywhere else. Would I recommend Martin Hall? 100%

Mum moved here a few weeks ago. Already she is looking settled. Weight done within 24 hours, yet the old home couldn't do. DOLs started the process - old one gave excuses as to why they didn't do finger nails cut, cleaned, shaped - old one, they were disgusting - which in turn led to skin rips, of which
her skin is healing now! Care here is how it should be.

My husband was discharged to Martin Hall from hospital, and despite not being where we would have chosen, the overall experience was very good. the home is undergoing refurbishment, as it is very tired, and should be excellent when complete. We found the care to be first rate, compassionate and person
centred, and my husband would have remained there, had it not been so far from home. Sincere thanks is due to all the staff, manager and on site occupational therapy team.
Reply from Nicky Cox, Administrator at Martin Hall Nursing HomeIt is always so nice to hear positive words about our home and staff. It was a pleasure caring for your husband and we wish you both well.

This care home is such a breath of fresh air from the previous care home experience. They are very attentive to their residents and offer superb dementia care. If mother rings her bell they are there within a couple of minute and deal with whatever is needed. They go the extra mile when required to
offer comfort and company to their residents. Even the manager gets involved with the residents during her working day to talk or maybe assist. The food offered is of a very good quality and with variety. There always seems to be adequate staff on shift and I can recommend this care home enough.

My husband has lived at Martin Hall Nursing Home for over 6 years. He has always been well cared for and he enjoys the home cooked food. The staff have always been accommodating with his changing needs as his Dementia progresses. Any problems, someone always rings me to make me aware. The home is always
clean and the staff is always helpful. Occasionally, I have had a problem finding a member of staff but it is usually because they are busy with other residents.

I caught a member of staff trying to steal my money. Waiting too long for help to go to the toilet and even worse off at night. Haven't seen my room cleaned properly once.
Reply from Caron, Administrator at Martin Hall Nursing HomeWe are obviously disappointed that you have had a negative experience whilst staying with us. We are aware of your allegation and this was fully investigated at the time, you received regular updates from management throughout the investigation process and were also given the opportunity to move to an alternative setting which you declined as you stated you were happy at Martin Hall. All call bell alerts are monitored, we have checked our records and all call bells were answered within the acceptable time. With regard to the cleanliness of your room, daily cleaning schedules are completed by housekeeping and are readily available. We are very sorry that you feel the experience did not meet your expectations.

Mum has Parkinson's so she spends most of her time asleep. Whenever we visit she is always clean and comfortable and nicely dressed, despite being fast asleep. Her room is clean and tidy and the staff often put things out for her to look at or a soft toy to sleep with.
I speak with the nursing and
caring staff regularly and they are always aware of her condition, her likes and dislikes.
I couldn't ask for a more caring and attentive home for her to be in.

With my stepmother's advanced dementia, and living 300-plus miles away from the nursing home, I'm very grateful for the updates and feedback provided by the nursing home, through the helpful administrative support and my stepmother's personal carer. This support is invaluable to me and more importantly

Overall we are very happy with Martin Hall.
Very clean, homemade food.
The staff are very welcoming.
Lots of activities for the residents.
We only have one issue and that is the record keeping. When we were trying to get Mum funding the social worker said at least twice that the records were
incomplete. The staff are familiar with Mum and so the records were not done. But they are still needed to be recorded accurately and regularly.
Thanks.

My father has been a resident here for the last four years. He has always considered the care home as his own home.
Over the years my father has had many different carers and he has always felt loved and looked after by them.
When we visit, all the carers and office staff are exceptionally helpful
to us and our father.
Now that my father's health is declining, we get regular updates from the front office staff and are always informed if any health concerns appear. Thank you, Martin Hall.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.701)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.701) out of 10 for Martin Hall Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.701 for Martin Hall Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (194 Excellents x 5) + (28 Goods x 4) + (13 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 241 Ratings = 4.701
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Martin Hall Nursing Home is based on 20 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 20 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
