From the moment mum arrived at Gateford Hill, the staff made her welcome, putting her at ease and ensuring all her needs were met. All staff were extremely helpful, professional and polite in the handling and care of mum during her time in resident. Family were always made to feel welcome and were kept informed of mums care and treatment at all times. Thank you seems such a small compliment when you consider how good Gateford Hill is and we shall be forever grateful for the care and support.

I stayed at Gateford Hill for over 9 weeks recovering from a broken ankle. I cannot speak highly enough of the care and consideration shown to me, by everyone here. The personal care was always done with compassion and kindness, and allowed me to keep my dignity. Everyone on the staff went out of their way to be friendly and helpful. Add to that excellent food, unlimited cups of tea and admirable cleanliness - you can see why I was sorry to leave!
Thank you for such a lovely message. We're so glad you felt cared for and supported during your stay. The team will be delighted to know their kindness , and of course the endless tea, made a difference. You'll be missed at Gateford Hill.

I moved my mum to Gateford Hill in September after 10 months in another care home where the care was terrible. I've been very happy as mum now gets person centred care and the staff are pro-active and encourage mum to make choices. The staff genuinely care about Mum's well being and they've also supported me during an anxious few days when Mum was in hospital last week. Mum and I are included in all discussions about her care and medical needs. I've spent many years working in healthcare myself and have seen many care homes. Gateford Hill is one of the best.
We are so pleased that you and your mum are enjoying your experience, and you class Gateford Hill as home.

The care, the staff, the food, and activities have improved their health and quality of life.
All the staff are caring and compassionate, the care is exceptional. As family we are informed of any changes, appointments, or updates which is reassurance for us.
They love the food that is on offer, so much so they have put on weight, which is a good thing!
It is so lovely to see them enjoying life again together.
Thank you to all the staff

My mum has been in several care/nursing homes over the past 4 years. She has had many bad experiences in the past so we were very reluctant to have her staying in another. I can honestly and truthfully say from the start to finish of Mum's care at Gateford Hill Care Home, it has been exceptional. I would like to compliment and thank the managers and staff for looking after and nursing Mum. Mum will be staying again and I have no hesitation in recommending Gateford Hill Care Home.
The staff so caring to my dad and kept us informed at all times.
So compassionate when Dad passed away.

Gateford Hill and all its staff are truly outstanding. The care, empathy, compassion professionalism they give to residents and their families is matched nowhere else. They ensure that all needs are met and go the extra mile to make them feel at home and ensure they have access to all kinds of activities no matter what their care needs. Sadly my father-in-law was on end of life in April early May and the care they provided to him and us as a family was amazing. Even down to checking that we had drinks while we stayed with him, did we need any food all the little things that get forgotten about for families. They even offered hugs when they were most needed. We feel overwhelmingly lucky that he was able to be cared for at Gateford and even at the end was able to stay there and give us peace that to the last moments it was just how anyone should be cared for. We will always have a special place in our hearts for this care home and its amazing staff.
The management, reception, nurses, carers, cleaning staff, catering and activity team - exceptional. We couldn’t have asked for more.
A lovely building for our loved one to spend his last few months with kind and caring staff throughout.
