Review from Alison F (Niece of Resident) published on 6 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My aunt is really well cared for by a team of kind, dedicated and caring people. We are very lucky to have found Charters Court.
My aunt was in hospital earlier this year and when she finally came out she was unable to walk or eat normal food. The carers at charters worked hard to get her back to
walking and eating. It's aIways a sad and upsetting time when a loved one has to go into care but it is much easier when they are in a caring supportive environment.
The food is a very high standard and the rooms and communal spaces are clean and attractive.

The staff are exceptionally caring and understand the needs of my aunt as an individual. They work hard to give the best care possible.
It's remarkable how they have brought her back from a serious illness to drastically improve her mobility and appetite.

I am writing to everyone for the care given to my husband while he was a resident at Charters Court. The carers in Aspen looked after him so well. His clothes were always clean and folded or hung up. The food always looked delicious, and the maintenance team were happy to drive him to hospital appointments.
The enthusiasm of the activities team was so good to see. Such a wide range of things to do and no one was ever left out. The building was clean and calm, and whenever I visited, there was a wonderful welcome by the person on reception.

I have been here for four months after being in hospital for four months. I couldn't walk and weighed 8 stone. Today I weigh 10 stone and can walk with a rollator. The care and kindness I receive each day never ceases to amaze me. The staff are observant and knowledgeable. I am happy here, comfortable
and safe.

My father has been in the nursing care suite for 12 weeks and id due to leave soon. From the very start, the staff at reception, the carers, the cleaning and maintenance personnel were all extremely engaging and professional with a greeting every single day. My father has been very well looked after
by all the nursing staff, and the activities provided are wonderful. Charters Court is just a lovely place to be, even the visitors know and interact with each other - such a caring/friendly environment.
And the food is great too!!

Due to Mum's dementia worsening, we moved her into Charters Court in November 2024.
Thanks to the wonderful carers she settled really well and really quickly.
Everyone is so welcoming and helpful, it's a joy to visit.


We are all so pleased to find a care home that truly cares, with great entertainment

and wonderful surroundings. I tell Mum she is staying in a 5* hotel, and I'm not far from the truth!


Thank you Charters Court!

He wasnt just treated as a resident. HE was treated as part of a community and extended family.
Thankyou for everything you did as a care home.

Review from John M (Brother of Resident) published on 16 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My sister recently moved into Charters Court Care Home after a long stay in hospital, and now requires a home with nursing facilities to meet her daily needs. To relinquish your independence and to find a home with loving caring staff in an acceptable environment we thought would be very difficult.
Fortunately after some searching, we found Charters Court Care Home. Not only are the staff loving and caring which is the most important but the home itself would be able to compete with any five star luxury hotel. All needs are taken care of from excellent food, hair salon and nail bar, daily activities to clothes washed on a daily basis and returned ironed the same day. Everyone from residents to relatives and friends are made incredibly welcome. I can not think of a better place to meet any individual's needs. Fortunately for us we found this excellent home for which we thank our lucky stars!

My wife went to Charter Court for four weeks respite and I cannot praise the home highly enough. I was really pleased with every aspect of her care, the accommodation, how clean everything was and how they attended to all her requirements. She was extremely happy with the quality and quantity of the
food - my only issue is that I'm expected to reach that standard now she is home.

My husband was admitted to Charters Court care home in September 2023, he has Alzheimer's. As a family, it was a very difficult decision to make, but we know he is being cared for so well. The staff are so kind and friendly and we are so grateful to them. I must really mention the amazing Wellbeing
team who organise wonderful activities for the residents, organising regular musicians, singers, magicians and even small animals that visit, and also the residents are taken on outings in the mini-bus to garden centres etc, this gives so much pleasure. This year my husband and I celebrated our Diamond wedding anniversary (60 years) and after mentioning this, my husband's room was decorated with balloons etc and we had a lovely cake that we were able to cut together, which meant so much. The food is of a very high standard and cleanliness is excellent. As a family we are so pleased that my husband is at Charters Court, we know that he is safe and sound.

I was very concerned when mum went into a home. Charters Court Care Home is mum's home now and she is much happier. Everyone is so lovely, she always seems to be doing one activity or another. I was able to join mum in the zumba class, we had such a good time bumping into each other.

My mother has Alzheimer's and has been living at Charters Court Care Home for almost 6 years now. I cannot express enough my gratitude to the staff and managers at Charters. Their care for my mother is second to none. Mum feels safe and secure. I feel extremely comforted at their level of competence,
implementation of standard operating procedures, and regular communication (I live overseas).
Additional care is needed for my mother by way of covert medication, assistance with eating/drinking, toileting and now walking. Nothing is too much trouble for any of the staff at Charters Court. I have personally observed the staff on mum's ward to be very kind and caring. I have known the deputy manager (current acting manager) for several years now. She is dedicated, experienced, kind and compassionate. This culture flows through to everyone.
Choosing somewhere for mum to live was very stressful. I consider us to be very fortunate and privileged that mum resides at Charters Court. Highly recommend.

Review from A V (Daughter of Resident) published on 3 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
My father has been a resident for more than 5 years and the other reviews I read about Charters Court seem so very different from my own personal experience. While there have been and remain a few truly amazing staff over the years, our experience with management is that they are anything but kind and
caring. The care my father has received has fallen short on multiple occasions, but recently it has deteriorated significantly. With the on site managerial role open now for several weeks, it seems that processes are slipping. As a very recent example, my father was left in his room, on his own for Christmas Day, while other residents were treated to an enjoyable lunch, he was left in his bed - he is wheelchair bound and non verbal. Imagine our distress to learn this is how our Father spent his Christmas day! I cannot therefore, in good conscience recommend this home.
Reply from Clare Sheehan, Hospital Liaison Team at Charters Court Care Home

Thank you for your review, we value all feedback as this helps us to improve our service where required. We are sorry you have not experienced the kind care we would expect. Having reviewed your concern we found no incident which occurred on the day indicated. Our colleagues had assessed your father to be very tired and sleepy and as such, in his interest, the decision was taken to allow him to rest in bed, and even when your mother visits, your father remains tired due to his deteriorating health condition. On days your mother does not visit, and your father is sleepy, the decision is made for him to rest in bed and your mother is aware of this. Our clinical lead spoke with your mother last week and she agreed to visit in the afternoons to allow your father to attend wellbeing activities. An example of which one day this week there was no group activities as some residents had gone shopping, your father was alert and we brought him to have dinner with other residents. We are not aware of standards slipping at the home nor has your mother raised any concerns. Whilst we actively recruit for a new home manager, the previous manager continues to support, and the deputy manager and clinical lead remain in the home. Should you wish to discuss your concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us, we will be happy to help.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.820)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.820) out of 10 for Charters Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 48 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 47 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 4.820 for Charters Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (469 Excellents x 5) + (81 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 557 Ratings = 4.82
  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 Charters Court Care Home is based on 47 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 47 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.
