  • Montpellier Manor, Middlesbrough
Located in the village of Stainton, just outside Middlesbrough, Montpellier Manor provides residential, dementia and short-stay care for up to 85 residents in a modern, purpose-built setting. With quiet surroundings and excellent transport links, including a bus stop just outside and a train station five minutes away, the home is well-connected while retaining a peaceful, homely atmosphere.

Each of the home’s en-suite bedrooms is calm and private, and residents are encouraged to personalise their space. Montpellier Manor is arranged over three floors, with a dedicated dementia household offering stunning views from the top floor. Communal lounges, a bistro café, music room, hair salon, and private garden patios help create a space that feels more like a boutique hotel than a traditional care home.

Menus are built around resident feedback, with flexible, freshly cooked meals ranging from cheese scones to Jamaican curries. Drinks trolleys, homemade cakes, and themed days like “Fruity Fridays” and afternoon teas bring a joyful, sociable atmosphere to every mealtime.

Residents enjoy a wide programme of activities—swimming, music, animal visits, fitness classes, and trips to local shops or bingo at Dorman’s Club. Magic the Pony, live musicians, and family newsletters from Famileo keep every day fresh, personal and connected.

At Montpellier Manor, care isn’t just about support, it’s about creating a community where residents thrive. Whether you’re searching for yourself or a loved one, for residential, dementia or short-stay care, the team at Montpellier Manor are here to help.

I am grateful for all the work that the staff put in to make my stay at Montpellier Manor as comfortable as possible. The staff I came into contact with were very kind and caring without exception. Although I didn't take part in many activities it seemed as if everybody had a good time.

Review from K D (Son of Resident) published on 26 September 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum has been a resident at Montpellier Manor Care Home for nearly four years, during which she has experienced a wide range of the care provided by the home and its staff. I and my siblings are not able to visit as often as we would like because, whilst brought up in Middlesbrough, we all now live a
good distance away. That has made our visits and regular phone contacts all the more important for both Mum and us.
Over the years, we have dealt with most of the care staff on the ground floor and have always found them unfailingly helpful, despite the daily work challenges that they all must face. That experience has made us increasingly appreciative and grateful for the care and attention that all members of the care team have given and continue to give to Mum.
All in all, Montpellier Manor is a splendid place.
Reply from Donna Wass, Home Manager at Montpellier Manor

Thank you so much for your kind words, we strive as a team to ensure all our residents stay connected with their loved ones and we try to keep families fully updated on their loved one’s care needs. Thank you, I will pass your kind words to the staff team.

Mum has been a resident of Montpellier Manor for three years. The staff are very friendly and caring. The activity organiser is excellent in involving the residents in the keep fit classes. Mum enjoys the music classes. We enjoy taking Mum to the coffee bar for a lovely coffee. Special thanks to the
handyman who is so helpful.

Cannot thank the staff of Montpellier Manor enough for their genuine love, care and support. They not only care for the residents but also their families. We have enjoyed being part of the Montpellier Family and would certainly recommend. Thank you again.
Reply from Donna Wass, Home Manager at Montpellier Manor

Thank you for your wonderful review; your mum was a much-loved and respected resident at Montpellier Manor, and she is missed by all staff including the activity team. She grew to enjoy and look forward to the activity programme within the home. Thank you to you for allowing us to care for you both for the last 18 months, it was a pleasure.

Mum really enjoyed her experience at Montpellier Manor during her final months. The staff genuinely cared for Mum taking care of her and sharing her good sense of humour which has helped significantly during her end-of-life care. I would certainly recommend Montpellier to anyone considering a care setting
for their loved ones.

Staff are very friendly, caring and supportive. The management team are very informative if any concerns about my dad. My dad was well cared for, the home is a lovely environment, rooms are very clean, also spacious and plenty of activities going on. I had nothing to worry about as Dad was in good hands
and helped him back on his feet.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My aunt was admitted in an emergency and ended up staying nine weeks. To be honest, thought I'd died and gone to heaven. After a traumatic few days, she was welcomed with open arms from wonderful staff to what looked like a five-star hotel. Though this might just be first impression but know her full
stay remained wonderful. Everyone was warm and approachable, very attentive, and couldn't ask for better. Rooms and facilities are spotless and clean, everything is in good condition, nothing old or tired, beautiful!. Have worked in care homes and seen first-hand the grotty flip side. Would thoroughly recommend it here 100%.

Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
Food and beverages cold. meals terrible, lots of waste. They never helped me or assisted me with washing or dressing as they were supposed to. Having to beg for my morphine. The commode was not emptied. No bin in the bathroom, had to put sanitary things in the bin in the bedroom. Told there was two
hourly checks through the night, never saw anybody. I had made a personal diary but someone had been in my room and tore a page out of it, screwed it up and thrown it in the drawer. Told them I had a hiatus hernia but they kept bringing spicey food. Laid in bed for two days with a bad chest infection, I have COPD and had to tell them to send for a doctor.
Thinking of taking this further.

The staff, from cleaners to management, are superb. My mum has been a resident in Montpellier Manor since August 2020 and in that time all she has received is love and kindness, which is a great comfort to me and my family. The food is of the highest standards and the care staff... well where do I start?
They are kindness personified. I have never had any need to complain about anything they do. This home really is of the highest standard.

Mum was very reluctant to move to a care home. However, the moment she arrived she was fine. She was so happy with how friendly and welcoming the staff and residents were. She settled straight away and says she feels like she is living in a 5 star hotel.
I am delighted and relieved by how organised
the whole process has been. All the staff seem committed to their roles making it a happy environment immediately.

The only problem, being so far from the kitchen and well down the corridor means hot drinks and food served in the room are cooler. Juice and water are always provided in the room.
Reply from Kelly Deane, Home Manager at Montpellier Manor

Thank you for your review. I will ensure that when you visit for your weekly fish and chips, with your wife, that the staff check with you that everything is ok for you. The food is temperature checked from the hot locker by our chefs at point of service, however, we can always heat yours up higher when you visit. Please continue to let me know if you need any further assistance and I hope you continue to enjoy your visits to the home.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.851)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.851) out of 10 for Montpellier Manor 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 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 40 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 4.851 for Montpellier Manor is calculated as follows: ( (424 Excellents x 5) + (51 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 483 Ratings = 4.851
  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 Montpellier Manor is based on 40 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 85 registered maximum number of service users is 17, which has been reached with 40 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.
