Review from Geraldine H (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 3 February 2026 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I cannot recommend The Gables nursing home highly enough. My father in law was a resident there from late 2022 until he passed in December 2025. He was always well cared for, I never arrived without seeing him clean, well dressed, shaved and hair combed, I never announced when I was arriving so this

was not for my benefit. The home is warm and well staffed, all of whom I knew well and their commitment to the residents is evident. All meals were cooked on site and were tasty and wholesome, my father in law loved his meals there. I know how well cared for my father in law was and that's thanks to the owners commitment and hard work. Thank you.

Overall Experience

I would like to thank all the staff for looking after my Dad. They showed such compassion in the last few weeks of his life. He was made very comfortable. They could not do enough for him, nothing was too much trouble. They were also extremely informative. The room was spotless clean, and he had everything

he needed. I would highly recommend The Gables.

Overall Experience

My mum was in The Gables for nearly 5 years. The care she received was without exception outstanding. The home was spotless, the medical care was faultless but it is the positive atmosphere and genuine care and thoughtfulness of everyone working at the home that made the difference. I will always be

grateful to The Gables for the care they gave my mum.

Review from Matt G (Son of Resident) published on 7 October 2020 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I have to highly commend The Gables Nursing Home and the staff for the outstanding care for my dad. During the Covid 19 crisis where I'm not allowed to travel down from the North East for visits they have been fantastic with Skype video calls, the staff help Dad with the iPads and calls. Dad says the

food and conditions are fantastic, and I have to say that during the Skype calls the staff are not only very helpful and caring they genuinely have a sense of humour and rapport with the residents that keeps them smiling. We have experience of The Gables from when my gran was in there many years ago and the level of care remains as high as ever to this day. The staff go out of their way for families too, they do all they can to keep you in touch during tough times. Whilst it's a heartbreaking decision to opt for a care home I can assure you The Gables is outstanding in all respects and you could not wish for more.

Review from Tim E (Son of Resident) published on 26 August 2020 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

The Gables in Silsden is absolutely great! Small, friendly and family-run, the team has done a great job looking after my dad since he moved there a few months ago. It's rare these days to find a care home that's not run by accountants and number crunchers as part of some large company, where cost-cutting

and profit is the norm. The Gables is a refreshing change - clean, tidy and the staff really caring about the residents. Each one is treated as part of "their family". There's no smell of boiled cabbage or urine and everyone is friendly and courteous. The food is genuinely homemade and plenty of it too! Before lockdown, there was a comprehensive programme of activities. They have been absolutely on the case to keep Coronavirus out but quickly put in place Skype and FaceTime chats plus visits using social distancing measures. Five stars all round!

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:

5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 5.000 for The Gables Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 5
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 3.111 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Gables Nursing Home is based on 1 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 = 3
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 45 registered maximum number of service users is 9. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 9 = 0.111
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
