Mum was transferred to Chestnuts for round the clock care in August 2023. The staff quickly got to know her personality and her needs. She has been very happy there even though she is bed bound. After a recent deterioration in her condition the staff have been excellent at supporting our concerns and explaining options for her palliative care going forward. As a family we are so grateful to the team.

My mum resides at the chestnuts and she is extremely happy there. Us as a family are also happy with mums care. All the staff are very caring, the food is lovely with a good choice and activities and entertainment is brilliant. Can't recommend this care home enough. Also very clean throughout.

Overall Experience
My mum was in chestnuts for about 8 months until she passed in Jan 25. The care home treated her with kindness and respect. She was well-loved and respected by all the staff. We felt at ease knowing that she was in safe hands and were always told of any issues with her health.

My mum entered The Chestnuts in 2017. Whilst I can't fault the care of the staff and the outstanding food provided for residents, the loss of my mum on November 2nd, 2017, I was left disappointed that no one from the care home sent a condolence card or showed themselves at the funeral. I felt after taking her money they weren't very thoughtful on her death.
