Excellent care the whole time my dad has been a resident however end of life care was so special. We were all treated with great respect. My dad received excellent care and pain relief was given immediately.
It helped a very distressful time easier to bare and I can never thank the girls enough.

This is the third care home for Mum and our 3rd time lucky. It's excellent from the management. Nursing staff that really get to know your loved one and their care needs. The care staff work as a team working together to deliver excellent care.
The girls on activities are amazing always doing things
with everyone - little animal visits from rabbits, little pigs and therapy dogs. So nice to see the residents enjoy these days.
The food is so nice with plenty of choice offered.

From the first day of attending Barchester Hundens Darlington, I was very satisfied with the security admission procedure. And extremely impressed by the friendly and warm welcome given by all staff. Pleasant, polite and helpful attitude. Their upfilling and cheery disposition was excellent and valued
by our family on the difficult situation we found ourselves in. We were allowed tea and coffee as required during visits. Attention to the patient was available straight away if needed. I highly recommend this care home.

Right from the start the management were so professional, they made the transfer to this home so easy but also dealt with my mother in law with complete dignity.
The carers and nurses do an excellent job and make everyone welcome, they also have great communication with the family.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Outstanding friendly care home that really is a breath of fresh air and by far the best care home we have ever dealt with,


My sister is general nursing and is nursed in bed by an amazing team of people who work together to make this care home such a happy place for the residents to live and call

their home.


It has a hotel feel about it when you walk in and the nursing staff are 1st class, The activities are excellent and they really take their time to do a mix of things with the residents.


From management to admin, chefs, care staff, maintenance staff. And activities.


Professional, friendly, respectful, caring people and a fabulous care home.

My father has over the last 12 months has been hospitalised on a number of occassions and has been housed in various locations in the area. However was re housed by social services at Hundens Park. What a difference. The other locations are not a patch on Hundens Park. The staff at both were excellent,
as is Hundens Parks, but the facilities and the access to management and nurses are far better. My father seems much more settled and happy. Many thanks!

My husband has recently become a resident of Hundens Park, he was very upset having to go into a care home, however, the staff have been amazing. He's had previous issues with a bed sore thats gone on for 2 years & with the excellent care he's receiving its improved & is almost better within a few months
of being here. He likes to smoke & the carers always make time to take him out daily. He's put on weight & looks really well. Staff & management have been extremely supportive to all our family too. Highly recommended.

Mum passed away in March, just a few days short of a year living at Hundens Park. The care my mum received during that year was exceptional, from all the staff, from the maintenance staff all the way up to management. Thank you to you all, not just for the care given to mum, but for the support I received.

My dad came to the care home from hospital. It was a shame that by the time he was discharged he could not get out of bed and enjoy the care home. I found the staff friendly and welcoming from the first visit to when my dad sadly passed. The staff could not do enough to make us welcome and my dad feel
at home. The home itself was beautiful and had a homely feel to it, along with being very clean and smelling nice. I was glad my dad got to spend his last days here + felt happy we was being well looked after.

After seeing Hundens Park I was impressed by how clean, up-to-date and welcoming all of the rooms were. The personalisation of the bedrooms made them feel so homely. The staff were amazing, helpful and deeply empathetic. Nothing was too much trouble and it was easy to see how much they care for the
residents. My grandad was treated with so much compassion + dignity. I only wish he came sooner.

I am writing this review to express the happiness that I had during a visit. To start with, the home looked absolutely beautiful, the atmosphere was peaceful and the environment took me straight into the Christmas spirit. Visited one of my dearest and was amazing to see a fantastic spirit and health
progress in the last couple of months. Talking, the resident could not praise the staff enough, stating how lovely all are, how responsive they are towards his needs, enjoying the activities, choices respected and extremely happy with his room. The quality of life was, without any doubt, visible and could tell how happy he was to call it his home now. Staff have been highly professional, visible kindness towards him and with a smile on their face. Thank you all for making him happy, thank you all for all your hard work, it does not go unnoticed.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband was diagnosed with dementia ten years ago. We have been together since we were teenagers, sixty years ago. At first, his decline was slow but a year ago he went into a care home. However, recently due to his deteriorating condition. he was moved to Barchester Hundens Park Care Home. I was
very worried and apprehensive as I wasn't sure how he would cope with the change. I needn't have worried. He has settled in well and is happy. His room is spacious and now with some familiar pictures and furniture, it is like home to him. I love the light, airy, clean look of every area and the staff are so friendly, welcoming and caring. I cannot praise them enough. It has given me peace of mind and much comfort. It isn't easy adjusting to a life on your own after so many years together but now I know he is happy and well cared for I can stop worrying about him and enjoy life.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.875)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.875) out of 10 for Barchester Hundens Park Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.875 for Barchester Hundens Park Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (268 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 305 Ratings = 4.875
  2. 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barchester Hundens Park Care Home is based on 26 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 49 registered maximum number of service users is 9.8, which has been reached with 26 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
