It is great to hear your husband always looks forward to joining in with our Wednesday Gentlemen's Club, which warmly welcomes both our residents and members of the community. It is also lovely that you both find our staff friendly and welcoming. Thank you!
From the moment they allowed me to be admitted very late in the evening and got me to bed on the first night everything has been wonderful. The staff are all helpful and lovely and kind and the food. The chef is surely one of the top chefs in the country. All facilities excellent.

My mother has struggled with depression since the death of my stepfather 3 years ago, had lost all interest in life and what was happening around her. I discovered that she could go to Tennyson Wharf for the day and suggested it. She has visited various care homes over the years to see friends and relatives and wasn't impressed with the idea but agreed to go and look. One short visit persuaded her to give it a try. I dropped her off at 10 am looking forward to it but slightly nervous as she wouldn't know anyone. I collected her at 4 pm and couldn't believe the difference in her. She walked out with her shoulders back, her head up and she was no longer shuffling like a little old lady. That transformation continued through the following week as she talked daily about what she'd done and when we arrived for the second visit and she was greeted by her name as soon as she set foot in the door I knew it was all going to be ok. She is now planning a stay when I go on holiday.
Staff are genuinely caring and all seem to know where residents are at any particular time; however, residents are free to 'wander'...
Apart from the cost (!), there are NO bad points. I would recommend this Home without any hesitation.
Thank you for your kind review - we are pleased that your Mum is enjoying her stay at Tennyson Wharf and that you are finding the atmosphere, food and activities up to our high standard that we would expect. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

My first experience was being invited to help with the entertainment at the official opening. Being resident on the nearby estate, I have continued to support fundraising and open days. As a result of this, I have become friends with a couple of residents and on a number of occasions enjoyed an excellent meal in their company. All the staff come over as very caring and considerate.

My very elderly mother died in March of old age and infections. The care my mother had was wonderful and every possible thing was done for her comfort. The staff were extremely caring with both her and us and we were delighted with the happy family feel of the care home from everyone involved including cleaners, gardeners, tea trolley, reception and of course, nurses and carers. It is an extremely high standard home, very clean and nice smelling. Well done!

We were very impressed by the reception we received from a member of staff who was so happy and welcoming and obviously was really proud of the care and facilities on offer. We have found this to be true - everyone has been so kind to mum. The care has been brilliant - my mum has been transformed in one day! From not wanting to get out of bed and get dressed, my mum has been showered, hair is done and she has eaten a wonderful meal with lovely residents in the dining room. Lovely environment, clean and stimulating, friendly and personable manager with a bouquet of flowers for mum to welcome her. Thank you.
Thank you for your review. We are delighted that the care that your mum received has met our own expectations that we wish to deliver.
A warm happy atmosphere. Thank you.

In addition, my relative was treated with courtesy dignity and respect as well as with patience and prompt attention to her needs. Barchester is, in relative terms, expensive, but 'you get what you pay for'. Doubtless, I shall be booking in in a few year's time.
