Review from Googie J (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 June 2026 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My mum has been a resident of Pytchley Court Care Home for nearly 2 years. My first impression of PCCH was "excellent" and standards have not dropped. We are kept abreast of Mum's health and well-being by phone or when we visit. Likewise emails provide reports of her account (hair and chripody) as well as "what's going on". The home is clean and tidy. Every member of staff is cheerful, friendly, helpful and professional. We are made welcome on every visit. I would thoroughly recommend PCCH.

Review from A M (Son of Resident) published on 26 June 2026 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
My mam had been in bed at home for 2 years. Carers coming in 4 times a day to feed and change her, not talking much to her. I lived 15 miles away and went in when I could but I worked and 2 sisters lived over 100 miles away.

We had such a job to get her into care because she did not have much money. I asked if they could get her into Pytchley Court (the council). She went in March and carers from Pytchley came to collect her. The carers were so kind and sat with mam who had not been out of bed in 2 years. I went to sort out mams new room, came through and she was drinking a cup of tea from a cup after being fed like a child at home. This has given my mam a life again. I will never forget what Pytchley have done for my mam.

Overall Experience

My mum has dementia and has been a resident at Pytchley Court for the last year. I am extremely happy with the care that she has received. The staff are caring and attentive and Mum is treated with dignity and respect. The home is always clean and Mum enjoys the food very much. There are lots of activities and outings each week which help to keep Mum stimulated and engaged, and the garden is lovely. It is a huge relief for me to know that Mum is being cared for so well.

Overall Experience

My mother moved to Pytchley Court in October 2023. The care she receives is exemplary! All staff treat all residnets with respect and dignity. My mother is always clean and well-groomed, as is her room. She often goes on outings in the minibus which she greatly enjoys. The foods and snacks are excellent - indeed, my mother, who was very thin, has put on lots of weight! The manager and her team are always available and approachable. Overall, as a family, we are delighted with our mother's care!

Review from Jennifer A (Daughter of Resident) published on 13 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

It was our first visit since my mum moved in in January 2026. We were delighted to see how well she was doing and how quickly she she has integrated. The staff are all so attentive and caring. The atmosphere was very relaxed, warm, friendly and extremely familiar. Above all, the staff were so present and aware of how everyone was doing. Each time we visited, someone was sitting chatting to mum when we arrived which kept her in such good spitits. She has gained weight since moving in and is so much happier and less lonely.

Overall Experience

Really impressed with how kind and caring the staff were. My mother in law was treated with respect and warmth and encouraged to be independant at all times (She has dementia). We were updated on her well being and I really had the impression she is doing so much better at Pytchley and is happier than she has been in a long time as she has constant companionship and excellent activities to keep her busy and occupied.

My dad was at the home for just over three years and in that time I could not fault the care he received or the help and courtesy myself and my family received. I would have no problem recommending the home and team to other potential residents.

Overall Experience

The team at Pytchley Court helped us enormously through a very difficult time. Their care was exemplary, as was their communication and co-operation with the hospital, doctors and family. Listening carefully to my mother's and family's wishes, they enabled her to pass in peace and with dignity in an environment she had chosen. Such a homely, caring, welcoming and professional care home. Thank you all.

Review from G S (Friend of Resident) published on 22 May 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I * difficult to give thorough review as my friend only (sadly) lived here 24 hours until her death but we were very impressed at our perception of food + activities offered. As for value for money, difficult as no experience of comparison (2* prefer bigger but adequate) however! in terms of every member of staff- exceeded our expectations. Professional, compassionate, caring, friendly, nothing was made to feel too much trouble. My friend was so looking forward to living at Pytchley, she was 103 and excited to be cared for! I honestly cannot think of a single thing or word which could have been any better, exceptional staff! Led by incredible members of staff.

Overall Experience

My mum has been a resident for nearly 4 years. She is very well cared for. The staff go above and beyond for my mum. She has had a few hospital stays and returns to the home in a poorly state. But they build mum back up and for that I am so grateful. Mum is happy in the care of the staff. My visits to see mum are always happy ones. So thank you to Pychley Court care home.

Review from K L (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 April 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My father has been in Pytchley Court for 2 years and his care continues to be well above average. My father has always struggled with his diabetes and the staff have worked tirelessly to encourage him to have better self care. We finally had a breakthrough in February where he agreed with the staff that he needed to lower his sugar intake, subsequently, his blood sugars have dramatically dropped and he has now had his medication lowered. This would not have been possible without the persistent care of the staff around him. Well done team, fantastic achievement.

Review from Martyn W (Husband of Resident) published on 23 January 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

As Christmas approached, the home was extremely busy preparing for festive activities. There was an atmosphere of excitement and joy. Activities involved residents, visitors, staff and local children. They enjoyed a themed winter wonderland party, with staff being dressed in Christmas outfits. There were intergenerational activities. Father Christmas was central to some of the events. The home continues to provide a first-class service to residents with a wide range of differing conditions. The service extends to family and friends of residents. Staff are very caring and proactive in making residents feel loved and cared for. Up to date information is readily available regarding resident's health conditions, needs and wellbeing. This home provides an excellent service for all.
