Thank you for your lovely review. We are so glad that you enjoyed your respite stay and felt that the facilities, staff, food and the care and support you received were all 5*. Our fees are a reflection of the quality of service we provide at Snowdrop Place.
She had a fantastic first year making many friends amongst the residents but more so with the home team who appeared to love her as...
Unfortunately Mums health deteriorated in April of this year but the care & love from the team continued & her spirit was helped. The care in her last few days was exceptional. A massive thank you to all at Snowdrop.
Your kind words are very much appreciated. We will feed this back to all of the team. Mum was a wonderful lady and everyone is feeling the loss of her within the home. With warm regards, Gemma
The staff are very professional and give as much as they possibly can, to the residents, and extra.

It was a very useful respite stay having been in hospital for 5 weeks having had abdominal surgery and complications (prior to home). Overall experience was veery good, thank you. The staff were all pleasant although I was self-caring and not in need of day-to-day care. The main downfall was the nutrition and food. The menu was mediocre sometimes with no protein or minimal protein present. The kitchen is upstairs from the main dining area and hot portable ovens are used, however, the food was sometines lukewarm. The serving staff were very pleasant and good at their job. The environment was kept very clean & tiday as well as being very pleasant for residents. Thank you for allowing me an honest review - the only reason to do so is to make quality improvements.

After a sudden illness, we had to make the hard decision to put our mother into a care home for respite care, which turned out to be a terrible experience, she progressively became more immobile and almost bedridden. We naturally had some reservations when we went for a show-around at Snowdrop...
The facility is maintained to the highest standards of cleanliness, and it is clear that the residents are the top priority. The team treat the residents with dignity and kindness; all our mother's needs are met with kindness & professionalism. Snowdrop Place is a truly supportive environment that has provided our family with much-needed peace of mind, we thank the management & all the staff for this.
Thank you for your feedback, we are absolutely delighted to have encouraged your Mother's independence and wellbeing since arriving with us at Snowdrop Place. We strive to maintain high standards, with our residents being well cared for and feeling safe as a priority. We will ensure your lovely words are shared with all of the team.
From the moment we nervously stepped through the door on one of their "open days", through the paperwork to secure Mary's place, the very difficult day when we moved her in to all the on-going help & support, I cannot fault the...
There's so much more to say but I would recommend just paying a visit and see for yourself - I promise you won't be disappointed.
We're absolutely delighted to hear how your Mother in Law has settled into Snowdrop life so well, and its reassuring you all feel happy with the care and service for your loved one. Your comments will be shared with all of our team.

My first impression of Snowdrop Place during the show around when we were looking for a care home for my mum, was excellent. We were given lots of information and introduced to some members of staff. The home itself is beautifully furnished, always clean, and ad a warm inviting feel about it. My...
I had always wished for my mum to stay in her own her, but given the struggles we had before she went to Snowdrop , I now I feel that she is in the best place. I have peace of mind now, knowing that my mum is being so well looked after, with wrap around care, day and night. Keep up the good work Snowdrop!
We really value all of your feedback, and thank you sharing the positive along with ways we can improve. Its wonderful to hear how happy your Mum is living here at Snowdrop and how reassured you feel too. We will pass all of your comments onto our teams.

We highly recommend Snowdrop Place, our family are so grateful to everyone for taking that time to listen to us and reassure us at every stage at a very difficult time. Thank you.
Karen, thank you for taking time to share your thoughts and comments. We were pleased to help you feel supported as a family at such a crucial time, and that Mum felt well cared for. Please be assured we shall share with all of our team your lovely words. We wish you all well in the future.
I came to Snowdrop Place in September. I was made very welcome by the staff and other residents. The food is excellent. It is a lovely for family to visit.

My Mum really didn't want to go into a care home but when my Dad was rushed into hospital we had no option. We had been to Snowdrop Place during an open day and Laura had been very helpful and she had kept in touch. Laura managed to find a room for my Mum at very short notice. She was welcomed by...
My Mum was in tears when she had to leave to go home and still talks about it fondly. Thanks you for taking such good care of my Mum and I'm sure she will be back permanently one day.
Thank you so much for taking time to let us know your thoughts from Mum's stay. It was down to our team we were able to welcome Mum at short notice, and so glad to hear she found her time enjoyable, she really became part of our community. We hope both Mum and Dad are well at home, and welcome back for a cuppa and cake anytime. I will pass on your comments to all of our team here at Snowdrop.

Very friendly and professional staff. There is always someone available to assist with any enquiries - nothing seems too much trouble. On every visit there is a very upbeat feeling from all members of the team. Cleanliness is of the highest standard. Residents are highly important to the staff who ensure their needs are met. Daily entertainment is organised for those who wish to participate allowing residents to interact with one another should they wish to do so. Would definitely recommend this care home .
Thank you for your really kind words, we are delighted your Uncle has settled into Snowdrop and our community so well. The elements you have mentioned are all essential to each resident feeling valued. We will also pass all of your comments onto our teams within the home.

My mother moved to Barchester Snowdrop Place Care Home in February 2024 and loved her new home and all her 'helpers'. As the year progressed, she became unwell and needed more support. As relatives, we never needed to worry, she was looked after in every way possible to make sure that her quality of life, dignity and care were never in question. Mum passed away at Snowdrop and the staff were just incredible and we truly don't know how we would have got through it without them.
Thank you for taking the time to give such lovely feedback, it really was our pleasure to look after your Mum during her time as one of our residents. She was a wonderful part of our community, as families also become and I know missed by many. We will make sure all of our team have these comments passed on.

My Mother stayed at Snowdrop Place for just over a month for respite. The initial welcome was warm and caring. On the whole, Mother seemed happy in the environment. Family were impressed when they visited. Mother appeared to be well looked after and the care team seemed well-trained and very approachable. The negative for me was the emphasis on finance. It's a shame as towards the end of Mum's stay, it felt more like the caring side was overshadowed by the money. I fully appreciate it is a business, but this felt more like an enterprise! As an outsider looking in, who visited a few times but at different times of the day, the upstairs seems a huge waste of space. Several smaller, more intimate lounge areas which you could use when visiting would make more sense to me.
Thank you for taking the time to feedback, we find all aspects valuable to us at Snowdrop Place and continually aim to improve both the service we provide and the process regarding preparing to arrive, during the stay and the administration with our team. We're glad that your mother was happy...
