The Grange Care Home

Friendly staff and fantastic facilities. My father needed respite care for a few weeks as I was going away. My father has never been in a care home before and was quite apprehensive. I’ve heard nothing but positive comments from him and he says that he felt he was on holiday too! Thank you for taking such good care of him and putting me at ease with the great communication and facilitating video calls.

From the initial enquiry to date, we have been so impressed with the reassurance, kindness and professionalism we have been shown. Every communication has been responded to swiftly and we are kept informed well. Most importantly, our mum has continually told us how well she is being looked after and how kind everyone is. We love seeing the activities on Facebook - she always looks very glamorous with her regular hairdos! Thank you all!

All the team at The Grange are without fail welcoming, warm and so helpful. Despite being affected by the staffing issues the industry is facing as a whole, they all work so hard to look after the residents. My grandmother was in a different home previously and since moving to The Grange, we have seen such an improvement in her mental state, her mood and her enjoyment of life. They not only care for her well but educate her as to her condition so she understands what’s happening to her as she ages. This has made a huge difference to us all in a positive way as it has reduced her fear and confusion significantly.

My Dad was one of the original, first residents to join The Grange from April 2020. What started as respite, at a really difficult time, became long term residency for Dad as he was so happy and so well cared for there. He always adored good food and the quality of what he received there was excellent. His room and surroundings we immaculate and we so appreciated seeing him so content there.

Mum has been a resident since last November, and I cannot tell you the peace of mind it has given me knowing she is safe and well cared for, especially in these trying times. The staff are always there to help the residents and relatives, and there are always activities to keep the resident's minds and bodies active. Mum says the food is always lovely, and nothing is too much trouble for the staff. Thank you all, and can't wait to try the Bar once reopened!

I have the highest regard for all the staff at The Grange.

Amazing care home where so much thought has gone into making it home from home, but for all the wonderful decor, furnishings and facilities it’s the genuine care, professionalism and dedication of the most amazing and wonderful team of staff that make The Grange so special.

Making the decision to place Mum in a care home was the hardest thing we have ever had to do. Her live-in carer could no longer provide the care Mum needed as her Alzheimer’s progressed. We looked at many homes before finding The Grange and knew the moment we visited that this would be Mum’s new home. It has more than lived up to our expectations and has proved to be a real ‘home’, not just a place that Mum lives and is cared for. The staff are wonderful and Mum is so happy. Our family has not lost a Mum, we have gained a whole new family. Thank you, you wonderful people.

My 82-year-old Mum recently had a 3-week respite stay at The Grange following a fall at her own home where she broke both her wrists. The Grange was amazing, both in Mum's immediate physical needs and her mental well being during a stay in a period where she could have limited family visitors due to the pandemic. She was treated no differently to any of the other residents and I can't speak highly enough of the professional and compassionate way all the support and care staff approached their duties every day. They ensured that Mum participated in as many activities as possible to help rebuild her strength and confidence. Mum is a young 82 year old and she really did not relish going into a care home, however The Grange really does strive and succeed in being a modern care home for the 21st century. We wouldn't think twice to go back to The Grange should Mum ever need residential care again and we can't recommend it highly enough.

If you are looking to place a relative in a care home, it's a huge step - but I can wholeheartedly state that the decision my sister and I took re The Grange was the best one ever, you won't regret it. Awesome place and staff - seriously, look no further!

When the time comes for us to pass our loved one into the care of others, it is one of the most important decisions we will have to make. I have been married to my lovely wife for nearly 64 years, and after caring for her for 4-years, the time came that I could no longer cope, it was, as for all of us that put our loved one into a home, a heartbreaking decision. I visited a number of care homes in our local area, and although all, I know are staffed by lovely, caring people, we eventually decided on The Grange. We are so pleased we did, I know after 9-months that the decision was the right one, the dedicated staff in the most difficult of times, have shown love and compassion for my wife. The home itself is a lovely comfortable place to be, more like a hotel with all modern conveniences, and the food is lovely and beautifully presented. I can speak from first-hand experience of this because I spent a week in respite care in The Grange over Christmas; the best Christmas of my life.

My Mum stayed in The Grange for two weeks respite care after leaving hospital. The care she was given was excellent. The premises are beautiful and kept to an extremely high standard. The food equals anything you could find in a top restaurant and everybody carries out their duties to the highest standard. Would thoroughly recommend The Grange and wish them every success for the future.

My Nan went to The Grange for 2 weeks respite and I cannot thank the staff and management enough! They have not only taken the best care possible of my Nan but also kept us family members informed and up to date on my Nan's progress during these awkward times. Without them we couldn't have coped and their constant updates have been a huge help and relief to the family knowing our beloved family member is ok and safe. The staff at this home go above and beyond their duties and for this I am eternally grateful. I wholeheartedly recommended this home to anyone looking for a safe haven for any loved one.

We have found the care facilities at The Grange excellent. The staff are always friendly, welcoming and engaged and treat my father with respect and dignity. Care is person-specific and changes/improvement suggestions are met positively and openly. My father is settling in well and is very well cared for in a luxurious and safe environment. Thank you.

My parents came in for respite and I have been very impressed with the care. The staff are all very friendly, professional and approachable. The home itself is beautifully appointed.

My gran has been in this care home for 3-months now, and she has come on so much, her well-being has complete changed, she is a totally different person. I get to visit my gran now which I am so grateful for, and I know she is safe within this care home.

Our Dad has been a resident of The Grange Care Home for over two months. He arrived in April, still quite poorly after a long spell in hospital. He was so frail and had lost a lot of weight. Since his arrival, the lovely staff have worked so hard to help him recuperate; building him up by tempting him with the delicious food, cakes, biscuits and constant cups of tea. Although we have been unable to visit him at this time, we have had updates from the staff and regular video calls with Dad. He is so much better physically and he seems so content to be at The Grange. The staff are all so caring and compassionate; they very quickly assessed Dad’s individual needs and requirements and set about doing their very best to make him feel comfortable and happy in his new home. He really is in the best place and our whole family is so grateful and looking forward to the day we are able to visit Dad at The Grange and meet all the staff in person.

Bonus - The food is also amazing, Mum loves it.

I was very pleased and impressed with the service that I received when contacting The Grange. I was not given a lot of time to move my aunt to a home and they gave all the help they could, to get her settled in quickly. All staff very helpful in settling her in and making her feel at home. Would definitely recommend to other people.

My mother, who has dementia, had to go into The Grange from her own home, at very short notice, as my father went into hospital. The staff at The Grange were so helpful in facilitating her move there, not only in the paperwork type things but also in respect of my mother's specific needs, especially as my mother's world changed considerably in a few days. I was able to get updates on how my mother was settling in, without feeling that I was a nuisance. I feel that The Grange Staff care of my mother, although we are in the early days, is flexible to accommodate my mother's changing needs. We are hoping that my father will join her at The Grange.
