Review from Angela E (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 February 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When we suddenly found we needed a care home that could take both my parents with different needs very quickly, we were very worried that this wouldn't be possible. Glain House was a huge stroke of luck for us and we are so glad mum and dad ended up there. The managers came out to see mum and dad and
have been very involved throughout, which is really reassuring. Staff at the care home are amazing, taking great care of my parents and always welcoming us when my sister or I visit too.
My dad who has Alzheimer's is now much safer. My mum who needs palliative care is feeling much relieved from caring for dad, and I haven't seen her smile so much in ages. The staff are very aware that mum and dad need to be together each day and make sure this happens.
I checked the reviews on carehome.co.uk before they went to Glain House and we were all much reassured - it was great for mum to be able to get an idea of what it would be like beforehand.
Reply from Gemma Howells, Head of Marketing at Glain HouseThank you so much for taking the time to share such a heartfelt review. We are truly grateful for your kind words, and it means a great deal to the whole team at Glain House. We understand how overwhelming it can feel when care is needed quickly, especially when supporting two loved ones with very different needs. We are so pleased we were able to help at a difficult time and offer a place where both your mum and dad could feel safe, supported, and together. Our team will be delighted to know that their involvement has been reassuring for you and your family. Thank you again for sharing your experience.

My sister and I met with Glain House management on 9th January, looking for a placement for both our parents as an urgent measure, and were given an excellent first impression. Management obviously care deeply about their responsibilities in the care home. Mum and Dad were accepted into Glain House
and the level of care they are receiving is outstanding. All the staff are well trained, very kind, and friendly to our parents. They have settled into their new home very well and are getting the care they need. Mum is having palliative care and Dad has late stage Alzheimer's. A big thank you from my sister and I to Glain House. We would definitely recommend them!
Reply from Gemma Howells, Head of Marketing at Glain HouseThank you so much for sharing your heartfelt review. We are truly grateful that you and your sister took the time to describe your experience during what must have been an incredibly emotional and important transition for your family.
We are delighted to hear that your first impression of Glain House gave you confidence and reassurance, and even more pleased that your parents have settled so well into their new home. Your kind words about our staff, their training, kindness, and friendliness will mean the world to the whole team. We thank you for your recommendation.

My mother has been in this home since 2022, myself and my brother have nothing but praise for the way she has been cared for. I cannot fault any aspect of her care or how the home keeps us informed of her state of health. Five out of five stars.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I would highly recommend this nursing home to anyone. It has a very high standard of care and is easily accessible for anyone using public transport.
Our mum was admitted there in the spring of 2024. Prior to that she spent just over a month in a nursing home which we were not at all happy with, because
it did not provide the specific care she needed as a person with dementia, although the staff were aware of her condition.
When we moved her to Glain House it was a great relief to us. The room was lovely and bright, with a well-equipped en-suite bathroom. She perked up considerably after the move, and was much more communicative, although she was very frail. She was very well cared for; all the staff were very friendly and professional, and attentive to her needs. They did all they could to make her comfortable for the last few months of her life, and for that we are deeply grateful.
Reply from Chris Adamowicz, General Manager at Glain HouseThank you for your kind words and for trusting us with your mum's care. We are so pleased to hear that she felt more comfortable after moving to Glain House. It means a lot to our team to know their care and compassion made a difference during such an important time. We are deeply grateful for your recommendation and send our best wishes to you and your family.

It was a comfort to see my father in such a caring, sympathetic & gracious involvement, especially the compassion of the staff from the management & medical & carers. Their interaction with those in need & their thoughtfulness for the residents and those who visit loved ones. It has become reassuring
& a sense of burdens being lifted to know that dad is looked after in this way. The room also was so impressive, spacious & clean.

Review from Wendy B (Daughter of Resident) published on 28 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We chose Glain House after visiting many homes in Cardiff because it was light and airy, the corridors and the rooms were big, it did not feel like a hospital and there was an outside space. We also liked the living space which was a very large area of a combined living room and dining area. My mum
also has a sister there and was recommended by her relatives.
My father stayed there for nine months before he passed away in the early days of 2025. The staff were very sensitive and helpful during this time.
My Mum enjoyed joining in the activities during visits to my father. Visiting family and friends are made very welcome and are encouraged to visit as often as possible. The visiting times are not restricted I would quite often arrive
at the home at 8:30 in the evening.
The staff were helpful and professional, they would do anything they could to help me and my Mum.
Reply from Chris Adamowicz, General Manager at Glain HouseThank you for taking the time to share such a heartfelt and detailed review. We are truly honoured that you chose Glain House for your father's care and are touched to hear that both he and your family felt supported during his time with us. It means so much to know that our team's efforts to create a welcoming, comfortable environment made a positive difference. We're also glad your mum could participate in activities and enjoy her visits. We strive to ensure family members feel at home here too and it's wonderful to hear that you appreciated the flexibility and atmosphere we aim to provide. Your kind words about our staff mean the world to us.

My father is being cared for by some wonderful people.
They are very kind and they always have a smile when I visit, they go out of their way to make their patients happy and at home.
But I am reviewing because they work so very hard on what seems like low staffing. Caron Group need to look after
their staff and be aware of their needs as if these members of staff give up through working too hard with no appreciation from Caron Group they won't have a care home to profit off any longer. Thank you to the staff. Any lack of stars is directed at not enough staff to help existing staff have a better day.
Reply from Chris Adamowicz, General Manager at Glain HouseThank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We truly value the hard work and dedication our team puts into providing the best care and support for our residents. It's always wonderful to see that recognised, we ourselves have various ways in which we additionally acknowledge the dedication of our team, both from within the home and via Caron Group. Regarding staffing levels, please know that we are continually reviewing our team requirements to ensure we meet the needs of our residents effectively. These involve thoughtful discussions between the Home Management team and Caron Group's Central Support, working together to reach a consensus on the best approach. If you'd like to discuss this further, we warmly invite you to stop by the office at your convenience. We'd be happy to talk in more detail and address any questions or concerns you may have.

Couldn't recommend Glain House enough. My mum was only there for a few months before she sadly passed away. But the love and care my mum, and us family members receive was out of the world. Every staff member we made contact was was brilliant, helpful and very friendly. Nothing was ever too much.
It's
such a difficult time when you need to find a care home for somebody you love dearly, but Glain House made it so easy for us. From our first visit, we knew it's where we wanted Mum to be looked after. And they all looked after my mum so well. Just seeing how staff were with other residents whilst we visited knew we had made the right decision.
We will never be able to thank the staff at Glain House enough!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Early days for my dad in the newly refurbished 3rd floor at Glain House, but I am highly impressed.
I cannot overstate the care, skill and enthusiasm that every staff member brings to their role. In his first five days there, the team transformed Dad's quality of life for the better, not least by rapidly
rebuilding his confidence to walk. More recently, they handled a small medical incident with tact and common sense. Management are highly approachable and Glain House co-ordination with hospital and GP visits has worked perfectly.
The food is good, we join Dad for meals. Cleanliness is very high. It is always easy to visit, and phoning him to chat is straightforward, outside busy times.
The city centre location is ideal for bus/train visitors (free parking also available), and there are no issues with noise or safety. It also makes local excursions easy, such as the regular trips offered for breakfast at a nearby pub.

The home is well run. It is clean and tidy, with staff coming around tidying the corridors and rooms. The staff are extremely friendly and caring towards their patients. There are options to keep patients involved with a series of activities, as well as a TV room and courtyard when the weather is good.

(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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 3.7
    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 72 registered maximum number of service users is 14.4. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.4 = 0.625
  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.
