I think all the staff here are wonderful, can't thank them enough for the care of my mother, who passed away there this week. We have smiled and cried together and I will never forget any of their faces. Its been funny and sad, they couldn't have done anymore as far as I am concerned, they all have hearts of gold, and made the last years of my mums life (Jean) a comfortable and happy one. God be with you all and bless you!

I have nothing but praise for Laurel Court. Mum has been here for 8 months and has received the best care. The staff are wonderful, friendly, kind and caring. They are always smiling and happy to have a chat. It took Mum a little while to settle in, which is normal as it's such a huge change from living at home, but she sees Laurel Court as home now. She joins in the various activities especially music, crafts and bingo and recently celebrated her 90th birthday which they made very special for her. We feel so lucky to have found such a lovely place for Mum where we know she is well looked after and happy.
Thank you for leaving such lovely kind words and feedback.
The manager is always available if I have any questions and the...

A truly amazing care home where my Mother and now my Father received/receive an outstanding level of care. All the staff (carers, managers, admin, domestic, chaplains, and caretakers) are friendly, approachable, professional and supportive. They go above and beyond the call of duty to provide my parents and our family the care and support to meet our needs and more. We are so very, very grateful.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback and kind words, it truly means a lot.
Both my parents have been cared for at Laurel Court. Sadly Mum passed away in August this year. The staff could not have done more for her - giving her wonderful care for the last 18 months of her life - she felt loved and at home there. Dad is still there- treated with so much care, respect and...
Simply a really caring place and it puts our minds at rest knowing the level of care our dad is getting.
When he was dying, the staff really looked after him, myself and my son.

The room was spacious, quiet, very clean at all times and had an ensuite shower room. But it was the staff who really makes Laurel Court exceptional. They are professional, attentive, dedicated and very kind. They treat the residents with respect and go above and beyond taking care of their well-being. There seem to be varied activities every day which they encouraged Dad to join in with! Sadly my dad was only there for a few months but at the end of his life, Dad was treated with such care and kindness.
Thank you so much for your kind words, it truly means a lot to us to receive your feedback.

Thank you so much for your review, it really means a lot to us to hear your feedback and kind words.
My partner was admitted on 24/04/24, very weak and confused. After just 9 days I can already see an improvement, due to the peaceful room, lovely staff and good food. Thank you everyone.

The staff at Laurel Court are frankly amazing. My mum was looked after with compassion, creativity and huge empathy until her death recently. We will all miss their kindness. I would wholly recommend this care home

While there are plenty of activities available, the problem is that due to my mum's severe dementia, she cannot really respond.
