Bourne Wood Manor Care Home

Activities are variable.

My mum was a resident with Bourne Wood Manor for a little under a year until she sadly passed away in July. In her last months at the home where she grew more frail every day, the nurses and staff at the home looked after her with compassion and professionalism. The care from the manager and the team is genuine and although they all work hard, nothing is too much effort. Every time we visited, even with children we were made to feel welcome and it was clear from the other residents and how they interacted, that this is a friendly and caring environment. We looked at a number of nursing homes before choosing Bourne Wood Manor and I'm so glad we did. I would highly recommend!

Bourne Wood Manor is a bright, cheerful and welcoming home. It is modern and has beautiful well-kept gardens to wander around and a lovely bistro to meet and have a coffee and enjoy spending some time together. All the staff are passionate about their work. They are wonderful, caring and are genuinely approachable and there to help. They have really tried to get to know my mother and are always supportive to her and our family. There is a varied choice of enriching activities, including live music and the staff encourage participation. Key events are always celebrated with enthusiasm and there is always plenty of fun and good humour. Whenever I have taken my mother out, the staff are so pleased to see her on our return and always keen to hear what she has been up to. Most importantly, we have peace of mind that she is being well cared for in a homely environment.

Wonderful residence. The experience has made a great difference to my husband.

From the first day my sister entered Bourne Wood Manor, she has been carefully looked after, with love and support. The staff are truly 100% caring. Any ups and down's my sister has, the staff are there helping and understanding and calming her down.

Kind and helpful staff. Great having the bistro (helps getting auntie out of her room!). Exercise class and communion service are much appreciated. Food really good, lovely room and a beautiful garden (interesting to walk around).

My father spent two weeks at Bourne Wood Manor for respite care and had a wonderful stay. All staff were extremely friendly and caring and nothing was too much trouble. The care he received was fantastic and his room was delightful. The food was superb. We would highly recommend Bourne Wood Manor.

Thank you!

I have been made to feel very welcome by all staff at Bourne Wood Manor. It is a very comfortable setting with two lovely gardens and well looked after paths and other seating areas. My room is large with a patio to the pathways and an ensuite wet room is a welcome facility which means that I can shower independently, although I am confident that I could call on assistance if required. The food is better than I expected and the menu is varied and interesting.

I cannot thank the staff at Bourne Wood Manor enough for their care, compassion and professionalism showed to my late father. Although he was only at the home two weeks before he died aged 92, the dedication of all the carers and staff was exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble and we as a family were made so welcome. The other residents were delightful and it was clear that they all enjoyed the activities and friendly, caring environment provided at Bourne Wood. We were able to be with my dad in the days before he died and the staff ensured that we had the time, space and support to ensure he had a lovely, peaceful death in a beautiful, calm environment with superb medical support. I would not hesitate to recommend this home to anyone thinking about care for the elderly. I am certainly booking my place when the time comes! Thanks to all of you.

I enjoyed my two-week stay. The home is well run. The staff are friendly, helpful and supportive. There is a good selection of activities to take part in and we were encouraged to do so. Would recommend this home.

We looked at seven care homes. Some were like hospitals, some very traditional, but Bourne Wood is purpose-built, luxurious and more like a hotel. I am going to put my own name on the resident list! My mum improved during her respite period, proper administration of medication and three meals a day, made a huge difference to her anxiety and demeanour. I can assure anyone that this is the place to be.

I moved into Bourne Wood Manor Care Home, to help look after my husband who suffered from Parkinsons'. Since he died I am more than happy to stay here as everyone is very kind and looks after me well. I enjoy the food. The way they keep us entertained and feel relaxed about living here.

Mum is very happy here and has lived here for over four years and considers it her home. It's a lovely, friendly place and is getting back to normal after covid, which is lovely. We have just spent a lovely afternoon with Mum, celebrating the queen's jubilee. The staff worked very hard to give everyone a good time.

My Mother has been a resident at Bourne Wood Manor Care Home for just over two years and feels so at home that the thought of going back to her old flat has gone completely from her mind. The care of the staff is exceptional and nothing is ever too much trouble. It is so nice to hear my mother laugh her way through the day with the staff. As a relative, I am always made to feel so welcome and the reassurance that my mother is happy, safe and well cared for gives me total peace of mind. Thank you, to you all.

My mother loves it here in Bourne Wood. The staff are genuinely caring and the purpose-built building and facilities are excellent. After 4 weeks of respite here my mother was no longer afraid of moving into care permanently and losing her perceived independence. She was finally able to admit that she was struggling at home and a danger to herself. The stimulating activities, the tasty food, the social interactions with staff and residents, the respect and the feeling of safety she gets here more than compensated. She was actually really happy to return!

Excellent. Great care and attention. Lovely happy staff.

My mum stayed at Bourne Wood for respite care following an operation. She received excellent care in a lovely environment. The staff are kind, caring and friendly, and nothing is too much trouble. My mum really enjoyed her stay.

Very impressive on all counts, especially throughout the covid period.

My mother is very fussy with her food and she loves the food. My sister and I went for lunch with my mother and it was excellent, as good as a restaurant! Thank you.
