My mum, a resident of Tonbridge House, and my family have been very impressed by the superb entertainment organised there.
From Christmas singing with fizz and delicious food, to St Patrick's Day Irish dancing displays, and most recently, a wonderful Mother's Day tea party to rival a posh restaurant!
We enjoy every special event and look forward to the VE Day 80th party in May! Every event is carefully managed by the hardworking, amazing entertainment sisters who spread joy and cheer to all! Thank you.

We visit my mother-in-law every week and we are always greeted with smiles from the staff. Everyone is so kind and helpful. The activities staff are amazing and so inventive with their themes for the parties. They are always so pleased to see family members. The food the kitchen provides for these occasions
is outstanding! We always make sure we have plenty of spaces for the cakes. We couldn't wish for a better place for Mother-in-law to live her last years.

An amazing care home, the staff are so friendly and understanding to both resident and family. We had an 80th for Mum in the private dining room, the food was amazing, the catering team went above and beyond. We never worry about Mum as know she is so well cared for and there is always great entertainment
for her to get involved with every day.

My mother arrived at Tonbridge House in November 2024. Right from the start she was made to feel comfortable and welcome. She has found all members of staff to be kind and helpful, and all queries from myself and my wife on various matters have been answered promptly and efficiently.
Her en suite room
is light and pleasant and is always kept spotlessly clean, as are all the attractive common areas of the care home and the gardens.
At mealtimes, there is a choice of dishes with the option of a lighter or snack meal if this is preferred. All have been enjoyed.
My thanks to all concerned for facilitating my mother's transition to living in residential care.

Where to start after so many brilliant reviews echoing what my 92 year old mother, my family and I have experienced here. Mum has needed our care for the past 10 years at home with the last two years being really tough. She's been chair-bound since 2022, needing hoists and is now in the grips of dementia.
She sat in her chair all day unable even to watch tv anymore and cried. I was burnt out. Walking into Tonbridge House Care Home without an appointment, I was immediately welcomed, listened to, briefed on what care would involve and then shown round this fresh modern happy place. I looked at 5 other homes but Tonbridge House stood out from the start. Mum received the same welcome when she moved in with the cheery compassionate staff responding to her anxieties and unique personality. The quality of care, meals and activities have transformed Mum. We are always welcome during our frequent visits and the staff care as much about us as my mother. Nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommended.

Thank you for taking a moment to leave such a complimentary and heartfelt review. We know that moving a loved one into a care setting is no easy decision, so I am glad to hear our team were able to assist you through the process. It is a pleasure to have your mum with us.

Staff at Tonbridge House are skilled, knowledgeable, and also very caring, kind, and compassionate. It is very touching and humbling to see. Those on the first floor, with residents with dementia, have a good understanding of the challenges this condition brings and make every effort to support people
to be as independent as possible and to listen and respond to them in a friendly and appropriate way. My mother arrived there from the hospital, quite weak and unable to walk, but with gentle support from the staff, she was able to get back on her feet and regain some of her independence. The catering staff also do a great job, preparing lovely meals and treats. Residents and their families can also go to the nice cafe on the ground floor or out into the pretty garden. Many engaging and fun events are arranged by the Events team, which bring a lot of joy and entertainment. Praise is also due to the friendly reception staff and those keeping residents' rooms and clothes so nice.

The minute we walked through the doors at Tonbridge house we were made very welcoming a lovely calm atmosphere.
During my husband's stay on floor one the whole team showed empathy, patience and smiling.
The rooms are lovely not too complicated for my husband who has Alzheimer's.
The activities are
very good at stimulating the brain.
I would certainly recommend anyone putting their loved ones here to give it a try I will certainly return for more respite for my husband and I know he will be warm safe and happy also less worry for me.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Dad was bereaved in May and by July it was clear he was becoming quite isolated in his supported living apartment. We looked at many care homes in the Tonbridge area and narrowed it down to two. Dad immediately chose Tonbridge House - liking the atmosphere and the friendliness of the staff. We were
told it would take him 2 - 3 weeks before he started to feel at all at home. In the event within days he was saying how much happier he is. The manager of Tonbridge House went out of his way to connect with Dad and resolve a few initial frustrations. Dad has loved the activity programme - especially a recent boat trip which he so enjoyed he took up a spare place for a second trip the following day. He really likes the food (though he claims there is too much of it!). And he is already forming a strong bond with the staff and other residents. We could not have hoped for a more encouraging start to this latest chapter of his life. Thank you to the entire Tonbridge House team!

Having had an accident, I needed respite care for a month which was provided at Tonbridge House.
Every aspect of my care was given with kindness and efficiency. In particular, dietary needs were catered for with great understanding and success by the chef and his staff.
If for any reason I need help
again I would gladly put myself in the hands of the Tonbridge House team. I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you.

My 94-year-old father moved into Tonbridge House after the loss of my Mum in May of this year. The staff were just great in accommodating Dad at fairly short notice and have made him so welcome. The other residents have too. He has lots of stimulation and loads to do. They struggled to get a space which
would allow storage for his mobility scooter but are trying to sort that out too. In terms of value, it is not cheap but you get what you pay for in my opinion. The whole place has a nice happy vibe. We couldn't be more pleased.

From the moment we entered the care home we were met with warmth, compassion and friendliness and made to feel part of the family environment they promote. My mother was well looked after by a very caring and professional team that met her every need. The standard of food was very good, and the chef
(with short notice) gave us a wonderful buffet lunch for a surprise party for my mother. Thank you all so much at Tonbridge House Care Home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was an ex-employee of the home, we cared for my dad at home until it was not suitable. As a family, we decided to choose the home and it was not easy but I knew the staff cared for the client and the families.
My dad had dementia and nursing needs so he was put on the second floor where he would
get all the care he needed.
My dad was not the easiest but he always smiled. We, sadly, lost our dad and the care he received over the last few weeks was just above and beyond. I must thank the head nurse, three members of staff and the nurse who was on when my dad passed, she sat with us and held his hand and a tear in her eye. It was peaceful and calm with a song in the background.
The night nurse who was on the weekend also made us feel at peace and we stayed until midnight on the Saturday.
The deputy manager was also amazing support.
Thanks.

The decision to move a loved one into the care of a provider can never be an easy one but Tonbridge House have done everything they possibly could to support both my dad and our family through the transition. He is well cared for by kind and attentive staff and we are kept well informed. We are greeted
like friends by staff when we visit and thoroughly enjoyed a wonderful family lunch in the private dining room recently, which was really special and a great touch. I cannot speak highly enough of our experience so far.

My aunt needed emergency respite care after a fall. The Tonbridge House team were responsive and supportive and were able to assess her and find her a bed within 24 hours. The care home was lovely - her room - light and airy, the staff - kind, professional, supportive, and enabling of her - the atmosphere
is light, sociable, and friendly. We enjoyed the cafe and the lovely gardens when we visited. Sadly, my aunt deteriorated rapidly and needed palliative care. We were so fortunate to have staff with palliative care experience on hand and her final hours were made comfortable and peaceful. In the last few months, I have had to visit and support a number of relatives in care homes in the home counties, and I would say that Tonbridge House is by far the best care home I have had experience of. Many thanks to the excellent team there.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.926)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.926) out of 10 for Tonbridge House Care Home 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 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.926 for Tonbridge House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (263 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 283 Ratings = 4.926
  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 Tonbridge House Care Home is based on 24 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 63 registered maximum number of service users is 12.6, which has been reached with 24 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.

Hello, my name is Josh Pearmain, and I am the Client Services Manager here at Tonbridge House.


I have been working in the care industry for six years now. Tonbridge House is a very warm, friendly and welcoming atmosphere to work in, and I love watching the team show genuine kindness and compassion to our residents.


My role is to give all the necessary information to anybody looking at care options and to help make the admission process as stress-free as possible. I enjoy meeting with families and discussing how we can best care for their loved ones and enable them to continue to lead an active and varied life once in our care.


Outside of work I enjoy most sports and am a regular at Tonbridge Angels football matches, although my preferred team are Brighton and Hove Albion! I also have a lively dog who I like to take on long walks with my wife.
