Cranford Grange

My mother moved into Cranford Grange at the end of September with relatively complex care needs. Throughout the whole process of assessment, through the move and settling in, the whole team have been exemplary. The quality of care and the attention of the staff have been superb; the whole team have been focused on Mum and ensuring she is as comfortable as possible. The staff are very highly trained and very responsive. A very, very impressively run care home.

My mother moved into Cranford Grange in September this year following a stroke, which meant she could no longer live independently. It was a big step for her, but I knew from the minute I went to visit that this was the best place for Mum. Cranford Grange is very well managed, and the staff are universally delightful. Nothing is too much effort, and they really do go the extra mile for every resident trying to make their experience the best, even when it means more effort or work for the staff. I have been very impressed on all fronts - from the quality and spaciousness of the accommodation and options available to the food that is made from scratch every day to the delightful staff who knew every resident and their needs. Full-time care is expensive, but we have found Cranford Grange to offer very good value for money. It is very reassuring knowing that Mum is surrounded by a team who are extremely thoughtful, exceptionally caring and truly dedicated.

My grandma was a resident many years ago, and my dad recently moved in after a short stay in the hospital, having said that if he ever needed care, that would be the place that he would like to be. We knew that the building, grounds, restaurant, bistro, lounge and activities were excellent, but as he was previously very independent and active; we wondered how he would settle. We needn't have worried as the way that he has been welcomed by staff has been amazing, not only in terms of medical care but in the kindness and thoughtfulness towards my dad and us as a family. The building is like a quality hotel, but the main attraction is the staff, who are all extraordinary people.

I found all the staff very welcoming and friendly. I would have no qualms about having to come again for a short or long period.

If you’re a carer reading this, you will probably understand how emotional and traumatic arranging your loved ones first stay within a care setting is. The staff at Cranford Grange took the time to allay my fears and patiently answered the many questions I had. Thank you everyone at Cranford.

Thank you all so much!

I cannot recommend this care home highly enough. Out of 20 Care homes which we had visited, this one was by far the best and continues to look after my mother to her high standards.

So, some wonderful staff and lovely surroundings, but choose carefully.

In her final days, the support for both my mother and myself was outstanding. The experience and professionalism that the staff showed allowed a dignified and peaceful passing. For the support the staff gave me, I shall be forever grateful.

If your loved one is in need of care then I can highly recommend Cranford Grange.

I’m so glad that we choose Cranford Grange as her home, as the staff are extended members of the family for my Aunt.

We are thankful to the staff for all their compassion and friendship.

Another bonus is the fact you are welcome to visit at any time.

Well done Cranford Grange!

My father did not want to leave his own house but increasing mobility problems made living on his own impossible. Cranford Grange has been the solution. The purpose-built care home is a spacious, well-appointed space but it is the quality of the staff that make me and my brothers thankful that we chose it as a place for our dad to continue his life. It's always people who make the difference so the kindness, care and trouble took by staff: housekeepers, cleaners, kitchen staff, nurses and the carers themselves is wonderful. The home is a relaxed, cheerful place and my dad especially enjoys the daily quiz.

Visiting Cranford Grange was a breath of fresh air from the initial enquiry and prompt reply nothing seemed too much trouble. My dad had been in hospital and lost a lot of independence/mobility and Cranford was the first home that had not been phased by this. My first meeting and viewing was very thorough, so much so that I reserved a room the same day. The process for admission was respectful, efficient and reassuring. The nurse assessed dad in hospital with kindness and patience. His move into Cranford was well organised. He has been there just over 4 weeks and I cannot fault the staff and level of care. Cranford Grange is well-staffed meaning they have time to chat with people and welcome family and friends with excellent communication. There are a lot of activities each week which are well organised. The food is freshly prepared and cooked from scratch with a choice each mealtime. I leave him each visit with confidence knowing he is safe and settled and with a smile on his face.

Mum was in need of respite care after breaking her arm in a fall at home in January 2021, at the height of the second wave of Covid 19. Cranford Grange (Sunrise of Mobberley as it was then) was one of very few care homes that were offering respite care at the time and Mum arrived there in early February. On the second day she announced that she felt safe there and would like to stay on permanently! From that moment she has been happy and contented and extremely well cared-for. The home is beautiful but more importantly, is staffed by lovely, kind people at all levels, who all have time not only for Mum but for her family and friends too. Since being there, in spite of her dementia Mum has regained her sense of humour that had slipped away after the isolation of lockdowns. She loves the social interaction and the many opportunities for fun and laughter. We couldn't be happier that she is now settled at Cranford Grange.

My mother moved into Cranage Grange several months ago. It was a difficult time for the family and for her, as she embarked on a new phase of her life, but the staff could not have been more caring and thoughtful. Her room was beautifully furnished and welcoming and the staff have been very helpful in terms of sorting out any issues to ensure that settled in and felt at home as quickly as possible. One of the things we particularly like about the home is that it feels more like a very nice hotel rather than a care home. There is a lively atmosphere throughout and there are a range of daily activities for residents to take part in if they want to. We take comfort in knowing that my mother is safe and well cared for.

Twelve months ago our family was faced with that terrible decision, our mother's dementia and physical frailty had become impossible to manage at home. Thankfully we found Cranford Grange Care Home. The home has a lovely rural setting and as you walk through the doors you immediately feel at ease. The staff are hard-working and professional but more importantly are compassionate and friendly. They make our mother smile and if she is happy the family are happy, knowing that we made the right decision twelve months ago.

My mother moved in, in October. The transition was seamless and all staff were very welcoming. We particularly appreciated the gifts for my mother which were a lovely touch. The staff have continued to be patient with my mum who has significant memory problems and have also given me plenty of support. The rooms are beautiful, the menu appetising and there are plenty of activities to get involved in.

has helped everyone through what is, or can be, the very hardest period in our lives but thankfully their wide knowledge of 'specialist' needs has given peace of mind to the ones who care and, most importantly, to those who need to be cared for with dignity and respect.
