The love and care she receives from all members of staff is absolutely outstanding.
Ty Gwynno genuinely feels like home. There are so many people who have worked there from the time we began visiting all those years ago and they are, without exception, cheerful, upbeat, warm and friendly to us as visitors, but more importantly with the residents.
It's a pleasure to spend time there and see the residents enjoying the company, the wonderful activities, the beautiful garden and the amazing outings.
We cannot thank you enough.

He is looked after like one of their family and I am welcomed at any time to visit. I am also treated so well from the caring staff.When weather permitting we love to sit in the beautiful garden. There is always something going on in the lounge or day trips for those who are able. Families are always welcomed and encouraged to join in.This is a very happy place and I would recommend Ty Gwynno to anyone.The managers and staff are so caring and treat everyone with kindness, respect and dignity.

He settled in from day 1 and is certainly enjoying the food - we've had to buy trousers in a bigger size.
The staff have been amazing in helping him feel comfortable and at home. He has plenty of 'male' company which is always a bonus.
We knew this was the right home for him as my mum has been a resident for almost 2 years now. The staff are wonderful and always go out of their way to make residents and family welcome.
We love you Ty Gwynno - keep up the good work
Thank you, Caroline, for such a wonderful review. Reading these reviews bring us such pride, and we do appreciate you taking your time to express such lovely words. Thank you again!

It's so good to be able to visit at any time and the staff are so friendly and supportive.It is painful to see a dearly loved friend needing a nursing home but we know that she is well looked after.I am impressed with the activities that take place,there is always a good singsong for the residents,the lounge area is always clean and tidy.When the weather is nice and warm there is a lovely area in the garden where the residents can sit.Also they have regular trips out of the home to different places,this can only help with the residents mental wellbeing.All in all i am very thankful that my friend has a place that she be safe in.

We were welcomed as a family when my uncle moved into and the whole team have been so supportive and caring. Thank you just isn't enough.

We travelled down from Nottinghamshire to visit my long time friend, a resident of Ty Gwynno, on her birthday. As always, we were made most welcome by the lovely staff. The home was warm, welcoming and relaxed. My friend was looking her old happy self, settled and comfortable. A lovely afternoon tea had been provided to celebrate the birthday, taken in a small private lounge area. Excellent. We continue to be impressed by the care and attention shown towards the residents, friends and families.

Staff ensure that my mother has opportunities to speak Welsh; helping with Welsh Wednesdays. Activities are innovative, varied, regular & support residents' well-being. There are strong links with the local school & the children visit termly. The staff lead quizzes, games and numerous singers & bands visit regularly. There are a range of stimulating areas where families can spend time together & provide a change of scene, including the a renovated caravan & attractive gardens.
Staff give personalised care, mention my mother's home village, make her feel special & 'one of the girls'. They epitomise person-centred care. The nursing care is also excellent & proactive to support best health outcomes. I could not have found a better home for my mother. Diolch to an amazing team!
Thank you so much for a truly amazing review. I will be thrilled to share this with the team! To hear so many positive compliments is overwhelming. Thank you again!
