With a team dedicated to enriching the lives of their residents, the quality of the person-centred care at Willow Gardens is what makes this home special. Some of the team have been there for over 10 years, giving it that warm, family feel.

The home is a hub of activity, from animal visits and crafts to gardening, where the residents grow their own fruit and vegetables in their mini allotment, harvesting them for the chef to use in the kitchen. There are regular pamper sessions, with manicures and hand massages, and there is a hair salon for weekly appointments with the mobile hairdresser.

And the local community are truly embraced into life at Willow Gardens. The Prince’s Trust volunteers and local students are regular visitors, with residents invited to events at the local college, most recently being a Christmas meal.

Every week the residents visit the local cricket club, where they enjoy comedy, music and dance performances. And there are shopping trips to The Strand Shopping Centre, a stone’s throw from the home, as well as a weekly Holy Communion at the home itself.

There are also trips further afield, from the residents’ most popular destination, Chester Zoo, to Blackpool and the nearby safari park.

Loved ones are welcome at any time and often enjoy taking part in activities. And if they can’t be there in person, they can catch up with what the residents have been enjoying doing on the home’s private family and friends Facebook page.

In the dining room they enjoy delicious home-cooked meals prepared by the chef, with home baking for afternoon tea. The residents also provide feedback on the menu, so it’s shaped to them. They enjoy tasting sessions for the seasonal menus, as well as cocktail and mocktail making.

The home has recently had an impressive refurbishment, with some wonderful spaces for residents to enjoy, from the beautifully decorated bedrooms to the welcoming lounges.

My brother was cared for at Willow Gardens from 21 August 2024 till 11 April 2025. When he died all the staff were fantastic. Cleaners, carers, nurses, managers even contractors all went out of their way to help my brother and make his life that more better. Managers and staff were busy but always had
time to stop and chat. Some of the cares even visited him on their day off. I could not wish for a better team to look after my brother. Thank you all at Willow Garden Care Home.

I visited my aunt and found her in good spirits. On leaving the home we discovered my mum had lost her prescription sunglasses. One of your staff members went out of her way to help us look for them. She is very kind and did find the glasses in my aunt's room. We were very grateful to this lady who
was going on holiday the next day. Thank you for all you do for my aunt we are so grateful that she is looked after by such a good team.

My mum has been at Willow Gardens for about 20 months and has mostly received the best care from all the staff. We did have some teething problems in the first six months, but we addressed this as a family and spoke to the manager. Things have settled more, and I feel that I can talk directly to most
of the staff should any problems arise. I also attend the relative's meetings when I can.
Reply from Kate Yates, Communications and Content Specialist at Willow Gardens Residential and Nursing Home

Thank you for your feedback. We're pleased to hear that your mum has received great care and that any initial concerns were addressed successfully. Open communication is very important to us, and we're glad you feel comfortable speaking with our team and attending relatives' meetings.

There are some matter which need some attention and consideration e.g. proximity of noisy residents (no judgement, no blame) to those who would be happier in a less noise invading environment. I refer to loud screaing and aggressive shouting emitting from some residents.
Reply from Kate Yates, Communications and Content Specialist at Willow Gardens Residential and Nursing Home

We understand the importance of a peaceful environment and strive to balance the diverse needs of everyone in our care. Very occasionally, a resident may become agitated, but these instances are rare. Our highly experienced team is skilled in using compassionate and effective techniques to support them, ensuring that any disruption is minimal. Please know that we are always reviewing ways to enhance the comfort of our residents, and we will take your comments into careful consideration. If you would like to discuss this further, please dont hesitate to reach out to the home manager, her door is always open.

Moving a parent out of their own home and into care is everyone's nightmare but the staff at Willow Gardens have made the journey so much easier. From supporting us, as family, to adjust to a parent's changing health, needs and finding our feet, to giving us all the biggest welcome on moving-in day
(the hug was very much appreciated from the Manager). My father has found giving up his own home and independence very difficult, and accepting help even more so, but the staff soon won him around with smiles, laughter, home-cooked meals and absolute love of their jobs. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Fussy eating is accommodated and alternatives provided. The whole home is welcoming, staff know the residents (and family) well. They soon know likes and dislikes. Everywhere is clean and well looked after. Residents can choose how social they want to be. Their wishes are respected and their dignity is always paramount. Willow Gardens isn't a home, it's an extended family.

Beautiful home; spotless, clean, bright and inviting. Couldn't fault the staff, all welcoming to Mum. Mum stayed for 4 weeks and we can honestly say she received superb care, the home manager and all her senior team, nurses, care staff, cleaners and the chef are all a credit to the home. Food is excellent,
great chef lots of variety, loved the family Christmas party, very talented singing staff, lots of dancing and fun, one Mum will remember! Thank you all so so much for everything you've done for Mum, we really appreciated your support. Highly recommend.

Willow Gardens is a place full of love, kindness and compassion. My dad spent his final weeks there and I couldn't have asked for better care for him. He was treated with dignity and respect by every member of staff and nothing was too much trouble for them. Even though my dad was very poorly, he would
often tell me how well he was looked after and how lovely and kind the staff were to him. The manager is a wonderful lady and she provided me and my family with support, empathy and understanding during a very difficult time. I can't thank her and her wonderful team enough for the loving care and kindness they gave to my lovely dad. I would not hesitate in recommending Willow Gardens to any family looking for a nursing home for their loved one.

My dad received excellent care while at Willow Gardens. All the staff, including the manager (who always had time for you), involved in his time here whilst having palliative care, could not have been more kind and compassionate as well as caring.

There really are not enough words to describe our experience with Willow Gardens. All staff were so lovely and friendly and caring and we were all treated with the utmost respect and kindness at all times.
Nothing was too much trouble and we were very happy with the care that was given to our much-loved
husband, Dad, grandad and great-grandad who was always looked after and supported in such a caring, dignified and professional way. We cannot recommend Willow Gardens highly enough and are so thankful to the Manager and the wonderful team she has created, always going above and beyond to help and support, making a difference to so many families when they are in need of care for loved ones. We would have no hesitation in recommending Willow to other families.
To the manager, you are a credit to your profession, thank you to you and all your staff, we will never forget everything you did and we will always remember your kindness, thank you so much. Forever grateful.

Mum has been a resident in Willow Gardens for the past 2 months. I was worried sick about her having to go into care but since she's been in and has settled down I've come to terms that this is now her home. The home is really clean and all the staff and management do an amazing job. The rooms are really
nice, a little bit on the small side but are newly decorated and have all new furnishing which is lovely. Shout-out to the cleaning ladies and the laundry staff the rooms are spotless and all the washing is done daily pressed and put back into the wardrobes - brilliant! The manager is great, really approachable and very helpful. Nurses are very good and always there to chat too if you have any concerns. Food is good. The staff treat the residents and visitors as they would their own which is really nice. Mum is happy there which makes it easier for me to know she's in safe hands. One only thing I would say is that there needs to be more activity going on throughout the day maybe some crafts, bingo etc.

I cannot speak highly enough of the excellent care my mother is receiving at Willow Gardens, she is bed-bound and always looks clean and comfortable, her every need is met by professional, dedicated and friendly staff, not only do they look after her so well but always make me feel very welcome and
keep me informed of her care and welfare.
The care home itself is very well led and organised, it always looks spotlessly clean and I believe the food choice and quality are excellent.
I am very grateful to all the staff for Mum's care and would not hesitate to recommend Willow Gardens to anyone looking for a care home for their loved one.

My mum has been at Willow Gardens for almost three months and she couldn't be happier with the care she has received. Her whole demeanour has improved and she is beginning to take care of her appearance again. The entire team of staff are outstanding and show a genuine interest and caring towards my
mum and she thoroughly enjoys the friendly, good-natured banter. She has regular baths/showers (which she didn't in her previous care home) and wears clean clothes every day. Her room and the home in general is clean and well maintained and feels like a home from home. There are plenty of activities for the residents to enjoy and the manager and staff get fully involved in dressing up and entertaining. I am so pleased that I chose this care home, I can relax and feel confident that my mum is being well looked after.

The staff were all very welcoming and helped Mum to settle into her new home quickly and were always welcoming to us too. The care Mum received at Willow Gardens was good and anything asked of the staff or management was never any bother and was always followed up and communicated back. The team at
Willow Gardens were professional, friendly and approachable, and more importantly, really kind to Mum. We were given so much support in such a difficult situation and would have no hesitation recommending Willow Gardens. In my opinion, it definitely outshines all the other care/nursing homes in the area.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.725)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.725) out of 10 for Willow Gardens Residential and 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.725 for Willow Gardens Residential and Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (240 Excellents x 5) + (65 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 316 Ratings = 4.725
  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 Willow Gardens Residential and Nursing Home is based on 27 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 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 46 registered maximum number of service users is 9.2, which has been reached with 27 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.
