Langley oaks is a home from home, I would love to pop some names of the wonderful staff who are like family for mum! I can honestly say my mum is so happy to live here forever as she keeps telling me! The family of staff are truly amazing and caring and mum is so very lucky and I'm truly grateful for the kindness, support and care and her quality of life is amazing and it's just such a pleasure to hear mum speak so highly of how lovely the food and drinks are, how clean and tidy her home is and how everyone friendly and her room is lovely and the gardens are beautiful and she cannot wait until the summer to see the garden in full bloom! I would never want her to be anywhere but here as she is finally living the wonderful life she so truly deserves and I couldn't be happier!! Every need is catered for and nothing is too much, she is treated with the upmost of dignity, she is safe, there are lots of activities and they have gone above and beyond and I'm truly thankful and grateful!
My husband has been staying at Langley Homes several times for 1-2 weeks respite care. He has many complex needs which are always met by the caring, kind and supportive staff. Langley Oaks has been a godsend to us as we have no other family in the UK and he can't be left on his own anymore while I need to have a break from my caring and work responsibilities to allow me to recharge my batteries. Many thanks to Victoria, Kerry, Alba and the rest of the team for doing your best and looking after Ted so well!
My stepfather has been residing at Langley Oaks for nearly four years. In that time he has been very well cared for and treated with respect. His room is always immaculate and comfortable. The meals are always varied and plenty of choice. I am always contacted if there are any issues or problems and have piece of mind that he is being well cared for. His health has been stable as he has regular health checks and proper medication. The staff are always very friendly and approachable. The only downside is not enough use of outdoor space and possibly mere use of minibus to take residents out.
We acknowledge your comments regarding use of the outdoor space and the minibus. We always encourage residents to partake in trips out and...
Roger has been in Langley Oaks for 3 months. The dedicated care that Roger was given is second to none. We cannot thank all of the staff enough for looking after Roger in what turned out to be his final months.
My mother-in-law has settled very well and the staff have welcomed her & give her support at all times. Nothing is too much, and they are very dedicated.
At Care UK we set a high standard for ourselves, so we are very pleased to hear that your experience with us has been a positive one.
My ailing mother spent over a year in the professional care of Langley Oaks. All of the staff were wonderful, accommodating and caring to my 94 year old mother and all of her visiting family. From management to medical, domestic, catering and general carers they gave a very personal and understanding service in a very pleasant environment. As a family we are very grateful to them.
Mum has enjoyed being in Langley oaks and has wanted to remain there. It's become a home from home and with so much to keep her occupied during her time there and trips out has been really supportive for her. In the times I have visited her, mum has been laughing, interested in her surroundings, taking part in activities, chatting and loving her cup of tea. The staff have been approachable, friendly, helpful and professional.
It has made me feel that I have been able to focus on my recovery a lot easier without worrying and concerned and that mum even with her diagnosis can live life and have a quality of life she deserves.
Well done to everyone there for making this happen, Thank you.

Just a wonderful care home. Staff are superb and the surroundings are kept clean and bright and decorated for special days. Whenever I visit Dad always has a glass of juice or a cup of tea and a biscuit on the table. Residents have activities set up for them and taken care of as you would your own family. Safety is excellent and my mind is at rest knowing he is taken care of and safe. Management is always on hand and so kind and helpful. Can’t fault this home feel very lucky to have a space there for Dad.

They have been so kind and caring especially as my mother is blind and her numerous ailments make her very challenging to care for.
An excellent care home.

My dad has been a resident of Langley Oaks since 2019 and I have only the highest praise for all the staff. They really have worked miracles with their professional care and empathy. He's happier and more youthful than ever. It's a testament to the kindness of staff, and the time they take to interact and encourage my dad to take part in events. He often says it's like staying in a hotel. The staff are great at communicating and keeping residents' families involved. There's always a smile and so much warmth at Langley Oaks that I can rest easy my dad is in the best of hands. The highest accolade I can give it's the sort of place you don't want to leave when you visit. Thank you!
The management and team leaders are an absolute credit to Langley Oaks. Any concerns were always dealt with robustly, the food was great, the rooms are lovely and clean and the entertainment is fantastic! The activities team go above and beyond to keep the residents engaged and stimulated.
My family and I were very pleased with my mum's care at Langley Oaks. She only lasted as long as she did because of the staff. Very well-run home with very friendly and helpful staff. I was not worried at all when we could not see mum during the covid times as I know they would have done anything they could to still look after our mum. I do recommend this home. They do the very best for the residents.
Recently due to unforeseen circumstances I had a family member be moved there and I must say the staff have been so kind, thoughtful in making my family member supported and settled. When I visited they were all so friendly and positive and were willing to help at all times. I seen how they interacted with the residents and it gave me validation that my family member is safe and well take care off. Thank you to all the team there you are doing an extremely amazing job.
All staff are very and and helpful.
All the staff at Langley Oaks are amazing. Each member of staff treat the resident as if they are one of their own family. Those that provide the entertainment for the residents work tirelessly to ensure there is something going on to stimulate the residents, from silent discos to pantomimes at Christmas and so much more. Whenever I visited Mum she was happy and content and dressed in clean clothes. Before my experience of Langly Oaks, I had such a negative preconceived idea of a care home. Langley Oaks changed that view totally and was 100% the right place for Mum to be at that time in her life. Thank you.
I believe her life was enhanced while there and she was happier than when living alone. She and the family became very attached to the carers and I'm confident that could not have been in a better place
Mum's first stay was for one week. During her stay, I noticed that she was happy. Her mood was stable. On collecting Mum one week later I saw she was looking healthy, well cared for in every aspect. The staff truly have a heart for caring and this was reflected in how well our Mum looked. On her arrival, Mum fitted right in and felt at home at Langley Oaks. The rooms, facilities and overall environment are kept clean and tidy to an extremely high standard. The residents are treated with genuine love and care. Thank you to everyone.
My wife, who suffers from dementia and Alzheimers was in respite care at Langley Oaks for initially two weeks extended to three. During this time she was made welcome and cared for by the very friendly staff, with excellent food, freshly cooked on the premises, so that it was almost like a hotel. However, she tended to get isolated and depressed - not only because of the nature of her illness but also because there was often not very much for her to do as the capabilities of most residents were limited (I imagine this is a problem for those in respite compared to residents who have a routine they are happy with). The special events e.g. Silent discos, were very good when they happened but she needed more of them.
Thank you so much for your review - we loved reading your kind comments, particularly regarding the care and food at Langley Oaks and will pass them onto the team who I'm sure will be delighted with the feedback. However, I was very sorry to hear that your wife did feel a little isolated at the...
The care home is always clean and the food is amazing.
The home is lovely and homely, clean and well maintained. The staff and are very friendly and helpful and I wouldn't hesitate to send mum there again for another holiday.
