My brother moved to Ashton Manor for residential care 18 months ago. An issue several months after his arrival was delt with promptly and professionaly. He feels I could not have found a better home for him, the staff are kind, caring and respect his need for privacy.
The staff contact me regularily
to keep me updated. I live many miles away and cannot visit very often so it is reassuring to know that he is happy and well cared for.

My partner has been in Ashton Manor Care homefor just short of 4 years.
In that time I have found the home to have been administered in an extremely professional manner and a caring approach. They never detract from the main objective, which is "CARING for the RESIDENT". The activities , the

On the whole we have been extremely pleased with the care provided by the home. My mother is treated with kindness and respect at all times. All the staff and management are helpful, professional and friendly. The quality and standards of fabric and the building are lovely, certainly comparable to
a nice hotel in their comfort. The entertainment and activities are varied, well run and fun with family and friends encouraged to attend and join in where appropriate. We are happy and pleased and would make the same decision again to trust the home with our Mothers care.


Two issues cause us a slight irritation a) various items of clothing disappearing during the laundry process, despite a personal tagging system system which should prevent this b) access to the home after the admin/reception staff have left at 5pm.

Mum has been in the Ashton Manor care home for nearly 2 years now. She was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in her early stays and became very settled and happy within a very short space of time due to the support and care that she received. Mum is very mobile therefore loves to help and participates in all
the activities that are on offer. The social activities that are provided at Ashton Manor are a credit to them. Mum and I have had such happy times together whether it was a day at the races or armchair travels, thank you Ashton Manor.

My friend has Alzheimer's Disease and has been a resident at Ashton Manor Care Home since October 2023. The home is a modern building with spacious ensuite rooms. It has a welcoming atmosphere where all the residents are well cared for, supported by kind, compassionate, caring staff, and are able to
enjoy having their personal possessions e.g.pictures and some of their own furniture in their rooms.Relatives have good regular communication from the staff, and are made welcome as part of the family.There is the opportunity for residents to take part in a range of activities organised by the staff, which includes visits from local community groups. A great deal of consideration has been given to my friend's personal needs by all the staff, particularly with regard to the things that she enjoys such as music and food, and she is as comfortable as possible.

My mother has dementia and recently stayed for 2 months in Ashton Manor. She left to relocate closer to my father when a place became available. Overall my mum thrived at Ashton Manor. She responded well to the environment, staff and residents such that her communication was improved over the course
of her stay. My only real criticism was that there didn't seem to be enough staff cover for Reception meaning it was intermittently a problem getting in to visit my mum.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has recently relocated to Ashton Manor in the North West, to be near to family. This is not easy for her after 40 years down South. However, the staff at Ashton Manor have been very helpful and supportive. She is enjoying her new home and the level of care is excellent. She has fairly high
needs and the staff have adapted to her without any problem. Medical and health matters are being addressed promptly and without fuss. Her sleeping is already much improved. It is early days for mother but there are clearly lots of activities in the home if the guests wish to take part. My mother also rates the food and nutrition highly, which can be taken in the room or in the dining areas. Ashton Manor is clean and modern. It is welcoming for family and guests. We have been made to feel part of the family. We have a high degree of trust in the management and staff. Communication is also very good.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The process of integrating my dad into Ashton Manor has been outstanding. It was emotionally difficult to admit him, but the staff welcomed my dad with sensitivity and care when he arrived in July. Since then he has come to feel that Ashton Manor is his proper home. He has mixed dementia so his issues
are complex. The positivity and sensitivity of staff during interactions have always been impressive and the Christmas period was beautifully celebrated. My father is an artist, though sadly this is impaired by his condition and the arthritis which prevents him from performing with any manual dexterity.
His work is on the walls in his room, and staff frequently inquire about its meanings and why a particular title has been selected. My dad's answers are frequently varied and may sound obscure but staff always discuss it with him.
Staff are always welcoming and delightful to talk with. They offer a lot of detail about what they have been talking about with my dad. I don't worry anymore.

My father suffered from dementia and parkinsons, he came to the home directly from the hospital. From the very start, the staff were wonderful, they were all professional, they kept me and my family fully informed of issues. In the short time my father was in the home he was looked after very well and
respectfully. I can't thank you all enough for letting him retain his dignity in his last few days. My mother and I were able to spend his last moments together. The staff were again supportive and respectful to our loss. Thank you so much.

Review from Claire A (Daughter of Resident) published on 16 September 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum spent 5 weeks in Ashton Manor (AM). Mum had some mobility and communication issues and we needed a home that could support Mum while she received rehabilitation.
Our main reasons for choosing AM were that every room has a full en-suite, wet room/bathroom and that staffing levels - especially overnight
- seem higher than other care homes.
During Mum's stay, we were impressed with other aspects of AM. Rooms and corridors are large, bright, airy and clean. There are sitting rooms that feel homely and not institutional. Food is good and there is a program of activities to keep residents physically and mentally active.
Most important was the level of care and support provided. We felt Mum was safe and well looked after. Medication was administered safely, assistance with personal needs was provided quickly and with dignity, staff was friendly and kind.
Yes, AM fees are a bit higher than other homes, but I feel the incremental cost is worth it for the difference in care.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Ashton Manor is worth far more than 5 stars.
The staff are second to none and the care given...outstanding.
My father was admitted in August last year with vascular dementia.
He was taken there from the hospital unable to walk, talk properly or feed himself and not able to communicate virtually
a cabbage of his former self.
He can now walk, feed himself, go to the toilet and engage in conversation.
Without the care and understanding given by all at Ashton Manor, I can honestly say I would not have a dad now.
The rooms and cleanliness are extremely good and you always are made welcome when visiting.
There is always someone keeping you informed about his progress and they are always available to speak to.
Cannot thank or recommend them enough.
If you are looking for somewhere for your family member, it's the hardest thing to do to say you need them in a home but I honestly think you can't find anywhere better.
Many heartfelt thanks to them all.

My friend moved into Ashton Manor a year ago and since then I have been a regular visitor.
I have always found the staff to be very friendly, helpful and attentive to all residents.
I quite often sit and have a coffee in the reception area and watch the comings and goings and I have to say that I
have never come across a time when staff have not greeted people, whether it be a resident returning from a trip out or a delivery person, with the biggest and most welcoming smile.
My friend is very happy in his home. You can see what a great place it is just by the smiles and happy conversations of all residents.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.845)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.845) out of 10 for Ashton Manor is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.845 for Ashton Manor is calculated as follows: ( (226 Excellents x 5) + (37 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 265 Ratings = 4.845
  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 Ashton Manor is based on 23 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 67 registered maximum number of service users is 13.4, which has been reached with 23 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.

Job Title: Head Chef Joined: 2020

Chef Lee - Infusing Care with Culinary Excellence at Ashton Manor


Introducing Lee, the inspiring Head Chef at Ashton Manor, an Evermore Care home. Beginning as a sous chef, Lee stepped up to the plate, or rather the kitchen, when the opportunity arose. "I’ve progressed a lot, and it was the right time to step up," Lee says, highlighting his commitment to growth and success.


Lee's approach to cooking perfectly mirrors the core values of Evermore Care: well-being, freedom, and community. His priority? The well-being of our residents. "The well-being of the residents is enjoying the food and making sure they have the nutrients they need," Lee states, reflecting his care and dedication.


Freedom, to Lee, means allowing residents to relish their favourite foods. "All our residents have the freedom of choice, to have the things they enjoy and the food they want," he proudly shares. Lee's Kitchen truly champions resident freedom.

"Definitely, we have outdoor parties, we invite the community in and always make sure that any mealtime is a great experience," Lee says, demonstrating his commitment to the community.


Despite the kitchen being "hard, fast-paced with a lot going on," Lee assures that the satisfaction far exceeds the challenges. The 5-star food and hygiene rating stands testament to his unwavering dedication and quality standards.
