Great facilities, has a hotel feel, staff are so friendly and can't do enough for my nan or our family when we visit. The food is also lovely, it's nice to have the bistro to sit in and it gets my nan out of her room.

The staff really are caring and it is lovely to see that all of them have taken the time to really get to know Mom.
They have an extensive activity programme and events for residents families to join in. I have recently attended a country and western theme afternoon, an afternoon tea and a family Sunday lunch there. All wonderfully organised with great food.
It really is a home-from-home. Many thanks to all the staff who look after her. Well done to everyone at Fountains.

Came to an afternoon tea event, which was wonderful. Nice to see staff from 12 months ago and see improvements, particularly the increased number of activities. The food was good, in a lovely setting.

We attended the Coronation celebration this afternoon. Not sure if King Charles had a fabulous afternoon tea in London, but we did at The Fountains in Solihull. A thoroughly well-planned, executed and enjoyed the afternoon by all. Thank you to all! Especially to two members of staff in particular.

My experience of Fountains has been totally 1st class. Following an accident, I needed to find some short-term care for my 90-year-old mother. Based on a number of criteria, I spoke to the manager, and she came to stay. The manager and her staff have all been magnificent. Their attitude along with the facilities at Fountains are all excellent, and most importantly, my mum loves it there. Well done Fountains.

Call bells made me feel secure.
Regrading security - sometimes visitors had to wait to enter as nobody at the desk.

Thank you so much for your kind words, it's lovely to hear you feel you received 5-star care from professional and helpful staff, comments like these mean so much to our Fountains family. It's great to hear that you've been in touch with the team to discuss future stays and we would be delighted to welcome you back. Thank you for your feedback about visitors having to wait to access the home. Outside of normal working hours when the reception desk is unmanned, the main doors to the home are key code secured to maintain the safety of both the people living here and our staff team, so there may be occasions where there is a slight delay outside of these hours whilst a member of staff can complete relevant safety checks before allowing somebody into the home. I hope this has reassured you but I'd be more than happy to give you a call and explain further. I very much look forward to seeing you soon.
Mum has had excellent care during her stay. All the staff are very welcoming and caring. It is kept spotlessly clean and well maintained. Food is very good and Mum really enjoys wine and puddings! Unfortunately, she does not want to join in with the activities which is a shame as they look very...
A big thank you to everyone.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such an outstanding review Sue, that really does mean so much to us here at Fountains. We are so pleased that Mum chooses to return to us for her respite stays and we cannot wait to welcome her back into the Fountains family in the near future. You are both always welcome to drop in and see us at any time, we'll make sure the kettle is on.
Mum has been well cared for during her stay. We have been well looked after when we've visited with lots of tea and cakes. Mum has come out of Fountains looking and feeling a lot better than when she arrived.

From the moment I spoke to the Home Services Adviser during my initial enquiry, the service has been efficient, professional, friendly and genuine. All the staff have been incredibly kind and helpful and we would certainly return in the future if needed.

I recently changed my role from Housekeeper to Activities Coordinator, which allows me to create fun and engaging experiences for our residents. I joined Barchester in January 2022. After caring for my mother for four and a half years, I was inspired to work in the care industry.
I find it incredibly rewarding to see residents enjoying activities, building friendships, and making happy memories. Being able to bring a smile to someone's face and make a positive difference to their day is one of the most fulfilling parts of my role. In my spare time, I enjoy making art, cooking, listening to music, and going to concerts.
