Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum's been here for a year now. Mum seems ok when we visit. I believe she enjoys activities here. The staff are very helpful, pleasant.
The home is extremely clean and has a welcoming feel about it.
(One thing I would like to mention is the dinner. I'm sure it's delicious, but it looks nothing like
the a la carte food shown on your website.)

Alot of care homes talk the talk of being a family etc but Holdingham Grange follows through. Their staff and most importantly the management team really care and take the time to really get to know each resident. They've really gone out the way to make my father in law feel as comfortable as he can
be in his condition and we feel 100% at ease that he is being not only looked after but loved and cared for.

My mum was a resident for nearly 5 years before she passed away recently. She was very well looked after by the very caring staff.
Whenever we visited (several times a week), it was like walking into our home.
I have recommended the home to anyone who is looking for somewhere for their relatives.

My father jas been in Holdingham Grange for some months now. We would have loved to care for him at home, but realise his care needs are best served where he is. He is happy and content. I never need to worry that his health or needs won't be met by the kind, caring, professional staff. There is a high
degree of trust between the family and the staff. His well-being is of utmost importance and I am content in knowing he is well looked after. Extraordinary place, incredible staff. 5 stars.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My grandad is a resident at Holdingham Grange and he is very happy there. He is a very private man, and we thought it would be a difficult transition from living at home on his own to moving into a care facility, but everyone at Holdingham Grange is so kind and caring and respectful of my grandad and
his needs. Everyone from the cleaning, catering, caring and management staff are really great. It feels more like family. I will definitely recommend it.

This is an excellent care home in every respect. My friend feels he has joined a family. Staff are warm and welcoming and clearly feel valued as employees. Management are responsive to requests and needs of individual residents. The home has a calm and orderly atmosphere without being clinical, it is
very homely. Cleanliness is to the highest standard.

My father has now been at Glenholme for 2 months, moving from another care home setting. He has settled into Glenhome very quickly due to the amazing staff who have cared for him exceptionally well - nothing is ever too much trouble. My da can be a little withdrawn, but since being here, he has been
encouraged to socialise and join in activities which he has thoroughly enjoyed. He is very happy and as a family we are thrilled to see him so.

My husband spent 5 weeks in temporary respite care whilst I went to visit my daughter in New Zealand. My husband really enjoyed his stay & didn't want to come home!
He was kept busy with lots of entertainment & enjoyed helping out whenever he could.
He loved all the staff & really enjoyed all the
meals etc. I would highly recommend the care provided here to anyone needing temporary or fulltime care!!

This is an excellent care home. The atmosphere is calm and relaxing due to the wonderful staff, who are dedicated to their work and those in their care. My friend is extremely happy here, very settled, and cannot praise it enough. Nothing is too much trouble, which gives it a sense of a 'family' feeling.
A true home from home. Many organised activities to add to the mix, along with the choice of cooked meals, well presented.

My husband has been in Holdingham Grange for 3 weeks following a stay in hospital. The aim of his stay was to build up his strength, and this has been accomplished.
He was treated with friendly respect at all times.
The food was excellent & he appreciated that our dog was allowed to visit!

My grandmother has been living at Holdingham Grange since January 2025 and has absolutely transformed during this time. It's like metamorphosis has taken place and she has transformed from a person whom I thought was ready for hospice care to a happy, healthy and content lady. Nanny is not just existing
but absolutely thriving. The care and love she receives from the carers and staff is just lovely to see. Most importantly, I feel she is being looked after as we would at home. The activities are just amazing and of such variety too. Thank you,

My mother has always had many friends; however, as they have all got older, many have passed away. She is so happy to have found new friends - she has changed in the few months she has been at Holdingham Grange. She talks to her new friends - both residents and carers. She loves how she is treated -
with respect and kindness. I think all residents are treated as individuals with their own needs and likes. For a few weeks before moving to HG, she stopped eating and drinking - she now enjoys her meals and many cups of tea, I believe she has put on over half a stone. Enjoying life!!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.997)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.997) out of 10 for Holdingham Grange Care & Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 52 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 52 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 4.997 for Holdingham Grange Care & Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (620 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 622 Ratings = 4.997
  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 Holdingham Grange Care & Nursing Home is based on 52 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8, which has been reached with 52 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.
