Review from Gill K (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Following a health scare my father chose to move to Weald Heights having seen the tremendous care my mother received when she was there. He knew he would be safe and happy and well looked after.
At Weald Heights he really felt at home. He loved the staff and the feeling of companionship he gained
from all those around him. He loved the reception room where he could read his papers and see the world by.
But when his health took a downturn that was when we were simply in awe of the care that was provided. My father was so well looked after 24 hours a day, he was very old school and the respect with which he was treated was wonderful. He might have been physically frail but mentally he was switched on throughout and he would always tell me how well he was being cared for.
Losing my father was incredibly sad but thanks to everyone at Weald Heights it was never distressing and we knew that my father passed with love and dignity. We could not have wished for anything more.
Reply from Amelia Moore, Reviews Team at Weald HeightsThank you very much for leaving us such a wonderful and touching review.On behalf of all the team at Weald Heights, it was an absolute pleasure to care for both your parents. They are still very much in our thoughts. A memorial service is being held in their memory for staff and residents to attend.We hope that you will remain in touch with all of us at Weald Heights. You are very welcome at any time.Thank you again.

The staff at Weald Heights could not have been more dedicated to the care of my father in law for 18 months until he passed over. He was treated with such kindness and dignity throughout his stay.

My mother was a resident a few years ago and her experience was so good that when it came time for my father to consider assisted living, there was never a question about where he wanted to live. The home is in a fantastic location with excellent facilities, all fantastically well maintained, but it's
the staff that make it so special. Incredibly high standards, all exceptional professional, kind and thoughtful which creates a wonderful atmosphere for residents and visitors alike. Truly outstanding !

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Great experience from the initial phone call to ask for respite for 2 weeks in 1 week's time. The positive response from a particular member of staff organised very efficiently. Lovely warm reception on our arrival. Reception staff, carers catering staff, and nurses are very caring, responsive, and
kind. My father felt well looked after and it aided his recovery after a hip operation. The food was excellent, he loved talking about what he'd eaten. The cafe is a lovely place for us all. Thanks. Great experience, would recommend it to all.

food but the level of care and attention she receives.

Overall a caring, well-run home. I would respectfully ask if it would be possible to put a list of unclaimed clothes in the lobby when clothes have been lost or are missing residents' names as it is distressing when items of clothing go missing. If staff do not know who clothes belong to. Thank you.
Reply from Samantha Debenham, Reviews Team at Weald HeightsDear Diane, Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback for Weald Heights. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. I would like to thank you for your suggestion around leaving the unclaimed clothes in the lobby. I am sorry to read this has become distressing and we will take your feedback on board and we will look to review this. I hope you see improvement over the coming weeks. Best wishes.

My mum continues not to engage with activities despite my telling the carers to make it her idea, i.e. "Mum you have booked to see the harpist this afternoon/entertainer it starts in 10 mins", or "Mum it's baking today - you asked to join the class so I'm letting you know it starts in 10 min etc. .....".
I've even told them to phone me and I will get her to participate. This makes it her idea.
It does not get the beneficial response if they say - 'the art class in on now do you want to come ?', answer 'no'.
Last week she did 90 mins of activity only We chose this home as it did lots of things in a day but my mother is not doing them and for £8k a month to sit and do nothing makes me so mad!
Also the laundry boil everything despite my labeled clothes and telling them I will launder her jumpers! I am loathed not to let her wear her cozy cashmere jumpers, Alpaca cardigan, Hebridean wool jacket but lazy laundry department refuses to look/feel, so shrunk clothes are in hidden wardrobe.

My father-in-law has been at Weald Heights for 4 years and is happy and well cared for. He enjoys participating in activities, going to the cinema and particularly the outings to pubs and cafes. When I visit I am always warmly welcomed by staff and I appreciate the provision of coffee and cakes! I have
got to know a couple of the staff members who look after Dad and I feel that communications are good. I am very happy that he is there and would highly recommend Weald Heights.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been a resident at Weald Heights for just over three years. During that time her mental and physical health has declined significantly, to the extent she has been bed-bound for and has required complete nursing care for most of that time. My sister and I have nothing but the highest praise
for the way the staff has looked after her. They always show great compassion and treat her with dignity, even though she can be a very difficult lady due to her vascular dementia. We are so relieved that we chose Weald Heights as we do not feel there is anywhere else where our mother could have been looked after as well. We have no hesitation in recommending it without reservation.

My Mum, who has dementia, has received the very best care at Weald Heights. All the staff are unfailingly kind, attentive and friendly. She says the food is delicious and all the carers are very kind. She goes on some lovely trips out and enjoys a wide range of activities. She especially enjoys the
visiting musicians. She loves Lola the resident dog, making friends with the other residents and going for little walks outside. Her family visit often and everyone has been delighted with the standard of care at Weald Heights. My Mum is so much happier than when she was living in her own home with a carer visiting. She is far less anxious. She can relax without having to worry about food or laundry or getting to appointments etc. She is also prompted to take baths, change her clothes and wear her hearing aids. Thank you very much to everyone at Weald Heights - the carers, the managers, the lifestyle lead, the receptionists, chefs, cleaners and maintenance staff - you've all been wonderful!

My mum has been at Weald Heights for around 9 months. During this time she has been cared for with outstanding kindness and dignity. She has been on so many trips out, including the seaside, which is fantastic. The entertainment is superb, lots of music of all kinds, with regular live performances.
The amazing care staff look after her every need, they know us so well, that it feels like visiting a whole family. We couldn't be happier about our choice to have our mum looked after in such an amazing place. We are forever grateful to the staff, who work so hard to create a home-from-home feel. Thank you so much on behalf of me and my family.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.828)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.828) out of 10 for Weald Heights 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 57 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 56 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 4.828 for Weald Heights is calculated as follows: ( (575 Excellents x 5) + (76 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 667 Ratings = 4.828
  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 Weald Heights is based on 56 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 80 registered maximum number of service users is 16, which has been reached with 56 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.

Maria Covington

Job Title: Home Manager Joined: 2016

I’m a registered nurse by training and have worked in older people’s care for 25 years. Before joining Weald Heights in 2016, I had managed a large care home for ten years. I’ve been at Weald Heights since before it opened its doors. I’m delighted at the way my team and I have made it a home with a first-class reputation.


I believe in setting the standard, rather than following, and we take an innovative, personalised approach to resident care. When residents said they fancied learning a new language, we set up Spanish lessons and joined with a local parent and toddler group so that the generations could learn together. And when a gentleman, who is a keen musician, wanted to visit the Royal Albert Hall for his 90th birthday, we worked with his family to make it happen and to give him an unforgettable day.


I was delighted with our ‘good’ rating from the CQC, which we gained in September 2018. I’m now looking forward to continuing to work with my skilled and passionate team to go one better. Our aim now is to become an ‘outstanding’ provider of great care for older people in Sevenoaks, and across Kent and the South East of England.
