All the staff are so friendly and helpful and I feel reassured from the minute I walk through the door when I am greeted by the receptionists. Bruno, the deputy manager, is very approachable with a warm, friendly personality.
My relative has a very small appetite due to her illness but the carers try hard to persuade her to eat and if she doesn't fancy the menu that day she is able to ask for an alternative to be specially prepared for her.
I really feel that my relative is in the best place for her needs to be met and I am so pleased that we chose Llys Herbert.

I also feel supported by all the staff as everyone is so friendly and approachable.
I would like to mention the support that my mother and myself have received from the Unit Manager,
Shaima, who goes over and above, one Sunday evening staying after her shift had ended as she was waiting to speak to the on call GP when my mother was particularly unwell.
Thank you everyone.

All I can say is Llys Herbert is home to my family member, she is completely happy and very settled with what was a daunting prospect. The idea of living in a Care Home really did concern her but turns out she's more than happily surprised. The staff make the place. All the staff have the same attitude towards the residents it's quite remarkable how so many wonderful personalities are under one roof.

It was so good to see the interaction with residents, family, carers and managers.
Everyone sang joyously while taking a period of silence and listening to Churchill's speech about victory in Europe.
My lovely relative didn't want to go outside so we enjoyed the fun and music from inside with a glass of sparkling wine! Despite having dementia she sang all the words to the old war favourites. When I left she was animated and brimming with smiles.
Thank you!

The staff at Llys Herbert who are mostly quite young are excellent they could not be more caring with Beryl and it's no surprise that she is very fond of them all. Her face lights up when they are near and although they are busy they always seem to make time to sing a little song or have a dance with her which I am sure makes her stay here so much better.

My father is a long-term resident. He is receiving a good level of care. We appreciate the individual dedication of staff, the fact that they spend time with him and try to engage in conversation that interests him. The staff show patience sometimes under difficult circumstances. He enjoys his food and appreciates the help he sometimes needs during meal times. He does enjoy when the staff have been able to take him into the garden, or a short outing in the wheelchair. We find the care home well looked after, neat and tidy. We appreciate the offer to have a meal with him in the dining room or his room.

We have nothing but praise for the professional, caring and helpful team we have met whilst selecting a care home for my sister. The whole process was made very easy for us by everyone and the warm welcome we receive at each visit is like being wrapped in a warm blanket. My sister has settled very well and we couldn't be more delighted with our choice of care home.

Excellent level of care and attention to needs. All staff are very friendly and helpful. Interests are considered and every effort is made to ensure engagement. The lifestyle leader organised a room, decoration and refreshments (without us asking, a lovely surprise) for my mother-in-law's 80th birthday so that my father-in-law and the rest of the family could be included in the celebrations. It is a great relief that we know that my father-in-law is being cared for and is made comfortable 24/7.

Very pleased with the attention shown to Dad's needs and the care given. Staff are always welcoming and friendly and all are very helpful. Lifestyle staff have considered Dad's interests and have set up a chess club with one member of staff, who is organising this, teaching herself to play in order to join in, really impressed with her. Escorts on mini bus trips have been excellent, this included a Christmas visit to a family members home which was lovely for Dad. Most importantly we know that Dad is being cared for and is comfortable for 24 hours a day.

Not only is my mum being cared for but she has also made new friends and is taking part in the daily activities.
The facilities are excellent, her room is lovely as are the communal areas.
My mum is really grateful for everything that is been done for her and the support she is being given.
All of the staff are excellent, they are very caring and nothing is too much for them.
I can highly recommend Llys Herbert as the care home to go to for either respite or full-time from the service my mum has received.
What a stunning care home. Llys Herbert is the next level of beautiful. Superior decorated and each time I've been there the manager has been welcoming and most helpful. The rooms are gorgeous and everything looks perfect.

We are thrilled with how quickly our Mother has settled in, made friends and joined in with the activities on offer.
It's lovely for us to see her so happy and the change in her. We call it her five-star hotel. The rooms, meals and facilities are excellent.

When visiting today, my mother-in-law was going to join the Activities Manager for the chair exercise class. It was fabulous. She was very personable with all the residents, she knew all by name and their abilities to conduct some movements. She was very safety conscious of their personal limits and referred to their progress. The activities were fun. She had a lovely way with the residents to win their confidence and trust. The mindfulness/breathing activity was relaxing and then the residents loved the end of the session doing the 'funky chicken' move, along with upbeat music. All left the room smiling and happy.

I joined Care UK in December 2025 and I’m proud to be part of the team at Llys Herbert. I feel privileged to support our colleagues while ensuring residents remain at the heart of everything we do. I decided to join Care UK because I wanted to continue growing as a leader in care, working in an environment where person-centred care is valued and where residents’ voices, choices, and dignity are central to everyday practice.
I am currently studying the City & Guilds QCF Level 5 in Adult Care and Health and Social Care. I have developed my practical skills through hands-on experience in care, learning person-centred approaches and the principles of the Mental Capacity Act (MCA) through real-life practice. Before joining Care UK, I worked in the care sector, progressing into management roles and gaining valuable experience in supporting teams and improving quality and standards.
I believe a successful Home Manager leads with kindness, remains calm under pressure, and always puts residents at the heart of their decisions. It is important to support colleagues to do the right thing, promote dignity and respect, encourage participation, and listen carefully to residents’ wishes.
My favourite part of the day is spending time with residents and colleagues. Seeing residents engaged, listened to, and treated as individuals, while watching colleagues grow in confidence, reminds me that good care is built on relationships, trust, and making people feel safe and valued.
One of my biggest professional challenges was entering the care sector without previous experience and learning quickly in a real-life environment. That experience helped me grow professionally, build confidence, and develop strong values around person-centred care and supporting people living with dementia.
Outside of work, I enjoy long walks, a good English vegetarian breakfast, watching films, reading, and attending church, as my faith is an important part of my life.
