My mum was a resident in Ashcroft for 3 years. She had several medical conditions including vascular dementia and at times could be difficult. During her stay at Ashcroft, the staff from carers to domestics were amazing, treating Mum with respect at all times. She was given encouragement to join in activities giving her some purpose. When Mum passed away in Ashcroft the love and support shown to us as a family was outstanding. I can't thank the team enough. They became like a family to us. I would highly recommend Ashcroft to anyone looking for a care facility for a loved one.

Mum has been there for 4 weeks now and every time we visit staff are friendly and helpful. Always ready to answer questions if we have any or point us to the right person who can help. All interaction has been kind and respectful whilst maintaining a good sense of humour, they have found the right level of interaction with mum and have good 'banter'.
This home is very nice, the staff always introduce themselves when entering a person's room. They are happy to help when asked for something, they are very kind and courteous. It's clean, very caring understanding. I would definitely recommend this home to other people.

I have watched my partner's mental and physical health deteriorate due to his health issues and have seen how much the wonderful staff here have continually cared for him and their compassion, despite being so busy. I cannot praise them enough and am extremely grateful to them.

Mum has been in Ashcroft since 2015 and I can safely say the staff in the home have always been kind and friendly and my mum is in the best place and I know she is well looked after. At times they go beyond their duties to make sure my mum has everything she needs.

My dad recently passed away in Ashcroft after living there since April 2022. He was always really well looked after by the wonderfully dedicated staff. In his last few days, the dedication never stopped. My family was well looked after when we stayed with Dad. He was treated with the utmost dignity...
Nobody ever wants to put their loved one into a care home, but if you have to, there can't be many better places than this.
Thank you - you know who you are!

I have found the staff friendly and efficient, and the care home is very clean and comfortable. I think my friend is very happy here and well looked after.

My Mother has been a resident at Ashcroft for 5 years now. She can be quite difficult and rude at times. The staff are fantastic with her and are very patient as she struggles with her speech. She always looks clean and well cared for. If any problems arise I am called straight away and they try their utmost to sort it. I'm regularly kept up to date with her finances and also receive a monthly newsletter. Overall I'm more than happy with Ashcroft.
The staff are always friendly and efficient when I visit my friend. They take good care of him even when he is not willing to motivate himself.

We visited the home prior to his admission. The staff was very welcoming and friendly and we were given a comprehensive tour during which we received a huge amount of information. I was very impressed with the demeanour and number of staff, facilities, and the environment.
When Dad arrived, he was welcomed by the team leader who immediately took him under her care. I was very impressed by the way she assessed his needs and deployed resources immediately.
The care and support he has received since admission has been excellent as has communication with us. Dad arrived suffering from many symptoms of de-conditioning syndrome in particular delirium and confusion. He has now regained capacity.
The quality of the food and frequency of availability is excellent.
I am extremely satisfied and I know Dad is very well cared for, safe, and well-fed.
People are all very helpful and kind to you. If have trouble with the computer entering my name I can always find somebody to help me. At coffee time I always get a lovely cup of coffee and a biscuit to settle me down from driving all the way here, but I do enjoy it when I get here.

She was a very anxious person, this probably got worse as her dementia progressed.
The staff at Ashcroft were excellent and soon got to know her little traits. She was well looked after and cared for and as a family we were always made welcome.
We couldn’t have asked for any more with her end-of-life care, they were amazing.
My wife said she would be happy to go back in the future.

My husband is at Ashcroft and I can not thank all the staff from receptionist to cleaners/chefs to care workers enough. They are always ready to help with a smile. The rooms are cleaned, and the laundry sometimes gets damaged his T-shirt had a rip in it after back from the laundry, but this is trivial and all I care about is the way my husband is looked after with dignity and respect always. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart, Keep smiling Ladies/Gents. I would not be able to sleep if it was not for all of you at Ashcroft.
After 10 years of looking after my wife, I couldn't cope any longer. She was admitted in June 2023 and has been so good. The standard of care given is wonderful and gives both me and my sons total satisfaction and assurance that we can leave her receiving good care, which we found difficult at...
After 10 years of looking after my wife, I couldn't cope any longer. She was admitted in June 2023 and has been so good. The standard of care given is wonderful and gives both me and my sons total satisfaction and assurance that we can leave her receiving good care, which we found difficult at home. Everyone from reception, management, finance, care staff. cleaners, catering and maintenance are excellent. Thank you all very much!

I'm grateful to all the kitchen and care staff who worked through Christmas day with big smiles to deliver a special lunch for the residents and family members. Christmas Day was always important to my mum and Ashcroft's efforts allowed her to have lunch with family and in a safe environment. And I should extend that to the cleaning staff because a magic cleaning pixie cleaned Mum's room while we were having lunch!
