This is the 2nd time that Pat has been here for respite care.
The staff are lovely, very friendly, helpful, and considerate. Whenever I visit, there is always staff in the common areas, and the residents are always cheerful.
Pat loves getting her hair done and the activities are varied, its a great

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My partner went into Blanefield House at the end of January. From her first day she has been settled. The managment and staff have been outstanding in giving her the space and freedom within the home to allow her to be herself as much as is possible. The staff are great with her and always know where
she is whenever I turn up for a visit. They never seem rushed or hurried, and have been excellent in keeping me up to date with her condition.
She origionally went into Blanefield Houses for respite care, but due to the homely, intimate nature of Blanefield, and the care shown by the staff, I have had no hesitation in placing my partner there permanently.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our mum, who has Alzheimer's, has been a resident in Blanefield House since March. As soon as we entered the home it felt right.
We visited a few care homes prior to this one but what stood out for us here was the time the manager spent with us wanting to know about mum and her vast knowledge on dementia
ticked another box for us.
Every member of staff treats you warmly and could not be anymore helpful. There is a homely atmosphere here that other places, in our view, lacked.
Our mum is treated with kindness and respect which is the most important thing to us.
We as a family cannot fault Blanefield House and we highly recommend it.

Review from Vikki C (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 23 May 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am so happy with the care my nanny receives at Blanefield house. The care & understanding shown by all staff, management, activity & service providers is clear from the minute you walk through the door. Always smiling & available to give updates.
My nanny has Alzheimer's & has been a resident nearly
3 years. She has thrived in this environment, loves the food & most importantly all the staff.
I write this review now, because I am so grateful for the support & compassion my nanny receives even with her needs increasing & requiring more attention now.
They know her so well & adapt to her eccentricities like making sure they have another meal for her should she wander to the other dining room during dinner, which she often does.
There's a wide variety of activities to join, hairdressing facilities, & of course a happy hour too!
My nanny couldn't be more content and I couldn't be happier knowing she's safe, loved & look after when I'm not there with her.
Best described as home from home.

We're so grateful for the care my grandmother received at Blanefield House. From day one, the staff made her feel welcome and truly listened to her needs. The home is well-kept, with comfy rooms and inviting communal spaces. There's a great range of activities to keep residents engaged, and the meals
are both tasty and tailored to individual diets. What really stands out is the kindness and respect shown by every team member-they don't just provide care; they create a real home. We wholeheartedly recommend Blanefield House to anyone seeking a nurturing environment for their loved ones.

As a family we were really anxious about putting my mother in law in care, but we knew the time had come. Firstly the level of care is excellent and now 6 years on I can't speak highly enough regarding carers and Manager they go 'over and above' to ensure the Blanefield 'family' is well cared for and
most importantly happy. We were so lucky to find this place - a true gem.

My Mum went into Blanefield House Care Home last August and I can honestly say that I am delighted all aspects of her Care.
Initially, I was reluctant to "let go " of my responsibilities in relation to Mum's care but am so glad that I chose Blanefield House as it has proven to be the best place
I could have wished for.
Everyone involved in Mum's Care have gone the extra mile to welcome her and now she feels part of the family, as do I.
We are updated regularly and when visiting are made to feel most welcome.Nothing is too much trouble and there is always a cheery atmosphere.
We have been encouraged to bring things from home, photographs and family mementos to personalise her bedroom.
I would not hesitate in recommending this place for your loved ones and I'm so glad I took my time and found the perfect place

My mum has advanced dementia and is currently a resident for a week's respite care. We visited yesterday.
Given my mum is often unsettled at the best of times, I was quite anxious about how she had been. But I could not have been more delighted with the home and the staff. She was settled, enjoyed
meeting people, enjoyed the food and everything.
The staff have that rarest quality: they actually take a personal interest in genuinely caring about the residents.
I highly recommend Blanefield House Care Home and cannot praise it highly enough.

My mum spent a week in Blanefield House for a respite break. On arrival, the staff made her feel so welcome and also gave me the reassurance that Mum would be well cared for and safe. There was such a lovely feel when you walked through the door. My mum had a lovely stay and praised the staff for their
caring attentiveness to her needs. All my family and friends who visited my mum said she always looked content and well cared for. This was of great comfort to me to know. Mum is due another visit in May and is looking forward to it. Thanks to all the staff and management team.

My mum was a resident in Blanefield House for 6-days for end of life care. I was so pleased Mum was transferred to Blanefield House even if it was for end of life care.

Blanefield House Care Home takes on a holistic approach to care. The staff not only care greatly for the residents but appear aware of the needs of family members who are visiting the home. The staff are always helpful and cheery and there is an ethos of positivity and calm. The staff are knowledgeable,
well informed and show sensitivity in all situations.
My mum was a resident there from June to October. The care she received was of a high standard and the staff were able to form positive bonds with my mum and the family. We are extremely thankful to Blanefield House Care Home for making the last days of my mum’s life so peaceful for her and the family.

My husband has been in Blanefield House Care Home for over one year. As regards staff, all of them down to the domestics and kitchen staff, I cannot praise them enough for their loving, understanding care. Such a homely, friendly atmosphere. A home from home. Rooms kept so clean (always going round
inspecting rooms). One suggesting for residents with dementia is nice background music that they can associate with. That is not to say they don't have music but perhaps a bit more thought out. Some residents are beyond watching films, doing games etc.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.935)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.935) out of 10 for Blanefield House 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.935 for Blanefield House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (130 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 139 Ratings = 4.935
  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 Blanefield House Care Home is based on 12 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 39 registered maximum number of service users is 7.8, which has been reached with 12 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.
