My father had resided at the home for a year or so. Throughout that time, whenever I visited, I found staff to be hospitable and friendly. The environment clean and sanitary. The residents all presented as being content and happy. In September 2023 my father celebrated his 90th birthday and the service facilitated birthday celebrations. Many family and friends attended and Acorn’s hosting was exemplary. My father’s own bedroom was always clean and my father was always supported well with his personal care and health needs. Visiting was never restricted and we were always made to feel welcome. Sadly my father passed away today and again the staff and management at Acorn supported the family sensitively and with great compassion. The dignity and respect shown to my father in his last hours and indeed throughout his time at Acorns was unwavering and we will forever be in their debt. Well done to all staff and management at Acorn and long may the outstanding work continue.

My mother was in Acorn Nursing Home for over twelve months. Although the staff at Acorn were very friendly and kind to my mother, the let down to Acorn is the manager. I think if they change the manager then Acorn would be a great home.

During his extended stay at Acorn Nursing Home he was looked after with the utmost respect and dignity. His room was always clean and I think he himself was cleaner than he ever had been. His hands had never been so soft and his nails were clean. The staff are patient, kind and caring.

Staff are all attentive, polite, helpful and considerate of my brother's needs. I take my hat off to all the staff for the humanity, care and consideration given to my brother. Bless them all.

I can contact the home anytime if I’m anxious about Mum, nothing is to much trouble. Acorn is an excellent home with top carers kitchen staff and management, who really care. I thank you all for the care you give everyone, thank you so very much. My mother has stayed at a number of care homes and Acorn is by far the very best in my opinion.

After caring for my partner at her own home for 6 years (she has dementia-picks disease), I was very emotional about letting her go into a nursing care home as I thought no one could care for her like I did. But I was finding caring for her more and more difficult. I need not have worried, as she has been at Acorn House for 18 months now and the care for her there is second to none. There is a real family atmosphere between the residents and staff. I visit every day. I would recommend this care home to anyone.
