I cannot speak too highly of the care my mother has received since moving in. The staff are superb and nothing is too much trouble. A quality start to Mum's life in a lovely care home.

My mum arrived in the care home not well and very distressed. She is suffering from dementia. The nine months spent in the care home have seen a remarkable improvement in her health, her mood and her memory. She has gone from being aggressive and shouting, to back to being happy and healthy.

My mum took residence in Hallmark Penylan House last February. She was very poorly on admission, requiring 24 hour care and life expectancy low. In December, mum reached 88 years of age, if it weren't for this fabulous home I would have lost her. The staff are so warm and caring, when I visit they have
become more like friends. What an exceptional care home!

My mum has been a resident of Penylan Care Home since November 2024, so far she has been well looked after. Her eating has improved and she is looking much better and healthier. The food is very good. There is an excellent entertainment team who provide activities and live singers and encourage residents
to participate. Christmas was especially good and a joy to be a part of the welcoming Penylan House family.
The carers do a fantastic job under sometimes very difficult circumstances.
Thank you.

Review from C R (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 14 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My grandmothers care at the home is reflective of which staff are working each day which, although shouldn't be the case, does have an impact on the day to day. There are never problems in general, but her overall demeanor is noticeably improved on certain days. Any issues we have had have been dealt
with by the staff on duty and my grandmother is very happy which is wonderful. Certain carers are exceptional and the entertainment and stimulation is fantastic, with live concerts, parties and events that are catered to all residents no matter their ailments and also family members.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Throughout the festive period the home was decorated beautifully inside and out. The tree even had embroidered stars with individual residents names on. Every week day there was entertainment, ranging from choirs, individual artists, music students from the university and even a pony dressed as Santa's
helper. There were also festive activities, making tree decorations, baking and flower arranging. Nothing is too much trouble and every resident is involved in some way. So much thought and effort goes into organising these activities. There was also a Christmas fair, Christmas party and a New Year's Eve party where families all got together to celebrate. The whole home was involved in some way and the atmosphere was fabulous. There are activities throughout the year, most days in fact, but the team excelled over this wonderful festive time.

I have been visiting the care home for a number of years and believe my mother could not be in a better place for her current needs. From reception to care and of course the activities section, the staff are amazing and carry out a wonderful job. First class all, well done and thank you for all your

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My relative moved to Penylan House from a residential-only care home when she needed access to nursing care.
The care she received there was exemplary in every respect. Every single member of staff was warm, caring, efficient and kind. Nothing was too much trouble for any of them. As a visitor, I was
treated with equal kindness and concern.
I would not hesitate to recommend Penylan House. The facilities are great - even the artwork in the corridors is the real deal but it was the staff who made the place so outstanding.

Thank you for your kind words. It is important to us all that families and residents alike feel reassured that they are receiving the care they need. I will pass your lovely comments to our Team.

Penylan Care Home is a welcoming, safe place for your loved one. My father has been a Dementia resident here for 1 year and I cannot thank the staff enough for the care they have given him. It's a huge relief for us knowing that he is in a place that not only caters for his needs but respects his boundaries.
The staff work hard and are always professional. There are daily activities for the residents and we love looking at the photos, seeing how the residents engage. Families are always welcomed and we've certainly become part of the furniture!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As the son of a resident, I have nothing but praise to give to the nurses, careers, and staff at Penylan Nursing Home. The level of attention and care provided to its residents is second to none.
My mother has been a resident for over 2.5 years and we could not have wished for a better home for her
to be in. They have cared for her continuously and always encourage her to participate in activities which they have plenty of during the week.
At the forefront of the staff's mind at Penylan is resident care first and foremost. Each member is friendly, empathetic and out to do their best for the residents.

Review from Michael G (Son of Resident) published on 7 June 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My main contact with the home has been with staff who have been truly wonderful in enabling video call calls with my mother.
I live abroad and am unable to make frequent physical visits, so video calls are an excellent medium which, I think, may have started during the pandemic.
On the occasions
when I have visited the home I have found the staff to have been friendly, welcoming and professional in a very demanding environment.
Regarding my mother's care - there are two incidents which stand out - one was the chance to ride the double bicycle, something I never thought she would do again and a visit to the ice rink; my mother would have done both activities when she was younger.
My mother has been exposed to a number of new experiences at the home - particularly the multicultural events and celebrations - something she would not have encountered had she been living at home.
The staff have gone over and above what is expected of them to enrich the lives of the residents.

Penylan is a culturally competent home, who cater for such a diverse range of conditions, cultures, and beliefs. It has a personal touch where the staff not only mix with residents on their floor but with all residents in the home. The activity staff are second to none in terms of the amount and range
of activities they carry out and the decision to put our mum into this particular place of residence has eased our worries no end.
Well done to all, I cannot thank you enough.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.852)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.852) out of 10 for Hallmark Penylan House 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 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.852 for Hallmark Penylan House is calculated as follows: ( (205 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 237 Ratings = 4.852
  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 Hallmark Penylan House is based on 19 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 75 registered maximum number of service users is 15, which has been reached with 19 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.

Job Title: Home Manager Joined: 2020

My previous profession in Zimbabwe was a camera operator. To be a healthcare professional was never in my mind, however, I have always had attributes of caring nature, giving time to listen, and offering respect to any human being. This led to one of my friends, years ago, to suggest that l should consider a support work role whilst in the UK. At that time, I was very reluctant and assumed that l would only be driving people around for social activities etc., This proved to be a game changer in my life, as l found working with people with mental health issues and learning difficulties in the community rewarding and fulfilling. At this point l noticed that it was not just a job but a ‘’calling’’. I then started my training from level 3 NVQ going through access to nursing then completing BSC 1st class degree in Mental Health Nursing.


I joined Penylan House in January 2020 with the intention of getting a short break from a high-intensity work environment. I have worked in different mental health hospitals, from older adults to mental health intensive care units. I decided to explore my experience in working with older adults which was the driving force for me to join Penylan House Nursing Home as a short-term measure. However, this proved me wrong as l fell in love with working with older adults. I am committed in providing high-quality care in a safe environment like Penylan Nursing Home. I am a passionate, motivated and resident-focused Nurse or Registered Manager possessing an in-depth knowledge of the principles, methods and procedures for diagnosis and treatment. In addition, a responsible self-starter with good interpersonal and communication skills be it in a leadership setting or working collaboratively in a multi-disciplinary team. As the Manager of Penylan House, l solemnly promise that l will foster respecting residents autonomy and dignity while treating residents as customers exercising choices.

Until 2014 I worked as a community volunteer, which included helping my elderly neighbours out. One of them came to Penylan House and I used to visit them there. I was very impressed with the home and applied for a job here, so I started in 2014 as a part-time night care assistant. As well as having NVQ levels 2 and 3 in social care, I studied fine arts in Mexico, where I was born, and I’ve always had a passion for art and painting, I apply my skills supporting residents with meaningful activities, which I’ve been doing since 2016. I received a silver award in the promoting fulfilled lives category, from Wales Care Awards 2022.

I originally worked at Linc’s Nursing Home in Newport, Capel Grange, but transferred to Penylan House as the shift times were more suitable for my personal commitments. The home has a good reputation for providing excellent care and the standards are really high. The home is friendly and welcoming, and the team I work with is great.


We are like one big family! Staff and residents get along really well. We all support and help one another to the best of our ability. Knowing you have had a positive effect on them is a great feeling, and making sure the residents are happy and content makes the staff happy too.
