We can't speak highly enough of all the staff at Chestnut Gardens, from housekeeping through to management. My mum moved in back in November and has taken a while to adjust to a new way of life and missing her own home. The staff have been so kind and helpful and spending time with her and encouraging her to join in the activities. Would recommend this Care Home to everyone.

Our mum came to the care home, this is the first for her, she arrived right in the middle of the Christmas party, having just come straight from the hospital, she was made to feel very welcome and took part and enjoyed the food. Mum's settlement to the home wasn't straightforward as Mum, as staff concerned about our health, was sent to hospital on Christmas Eve, she came home on Boxing Day. Couple of days later, she was sent back to the hospital so she spent New Year in hospital, this has been very upsetting for everybody but the staff had been great and don't mind being bombarded with loads of questions. We are an outgoing family so we have joined in with the quizzes etc., grandchildren have been made to be welcome and also helped put the Christmas decorations away, the other residents have fallen in love with our 9-year-old grandson, said he's funny and entertaining. Mum has only been in the home three weeks, says room is lovely, the staff are very caring and kind, food is good too.
Thank you very much for your kind feedback, very much appreciated! And thank you for bringing in your lovely grandson who is a joy.

The transition was so easy from hospital to the home. Nothing was too much trouble for anyone. I can honestly say that during her stay, my mum had the most wonderful care from all of the staff. I would highly recommend Chestnut Gardens and the manager and her fabulous team.

On entering Barchester Chestnut Gardens Care Home, my initial thoughts were this feels like a five-star hotel and I was greeted by smiling, welcoming staff. I felt very comfortable talking to the staff and I thought the facilities had a lovely ambience. It is a good-sized home giving a spacious and luxurious feel. When I took my mother for one week respite, the staff came to her at once to introduce themselves and they did with such a kind and warm manner that I instantly felt that she would be in good hands. The staff went above and beyond to make sure Mum was happy and for that, I am truly grateful and would highly recommend Chestnut Gardens.
Thank you very much for your kind feedback, we enjoyed looking after your mother and will be happy to welcome her back to Chestnut Gardens again!
I will definitely be booking the home again.

Hello, my name is Kuldeep Gill.
I have previously worked for the Crown Courts and the Civil Service, leading a team where I achieved an Employee Award for Excellent Customer Service.
I moved on to the Care Sector in 2014, and soon after, the Company achieved an ‘Outstanding CQC Report’ and carried ‘Outstanding’ throughout my working period there. Working in the Care Sector, not only did I gain a lot of experience in Business Administration, but I also learnt that making people’s lives happy and meaningful is such a rewarding accomplishment.
As a strong believer in positive thinking in the workplace, I bring in my years of experience, and it is my pride and joy to work with such an excellent, passionate and thriving team in a beautiful home.

My career in hospitality and catering started in 1995. I started working as a chef in the care sector for Maria Mallaband where I worked my way up to head Chef. I chose to join Barchester as their standards and expectations are so high. I believe a good chef is an artist and should be able to create delicious and nutritious menus from the local, seasonal produce on offer.
We have a strong passionate team here at Chestnut Gardens and we are looking forward to welcoming our residents to their new homes.
