Beulah Vista Care Home

Beulah Vista is truly something special. The facilities are excellent, but what makes the difference is the people. The staff are all so warm and lovely and genuinely care, which makes it a wonderful place to be.

I've been to a lot of care homes (searching around, and also visiting friends of my parents in other homes), and there is a lot of variation out there, but nothing like Beulah. It's a true wonder and we will be forever grateful to everyone there for the incredible home they provided for my father for the past 3 and half years. He was very happy there, and we all loved coming to see him.

My mother-in-law came to Beulah Vista at the age of 99. It feels only right to leave a review now, as she sadly passed away in December 2025 at the remarkable age of 102. Her stay was self-funded until her savings ran out roughly a year before she passed. As a privately run care home, Beulah Vista would have been well within their rights to arrange for her to be moved to a council-funded home. They never once took that route. Instead, they spent a great deal of time helping us navigate the complicated process of applying for financial support so she could remain where she was comfortable and cared for. We cannot express our gratitude enough, not only for that help, but for the way every member of staff cared for her throughout her time there. She was treated with genuine kindness, compassion, and respect, as though she were part of their own family. Nothing was ever too much trouble. Thank you, Beulah Vista, for everything you did.

My Mother stayed at Beulah Vista from Jan 2024 until her death a year ago. I often drive past and it should not cause me to smile as during her stay I witnessed the effects of illness on a frighteningly intelligent and independent woman, through to the night she slowly slipped away listening to Beethoven. However, I always do! I have the priceless comfort of knowing we selected the best possible home for her. It may be well designed with great entertainment and food, but it was the team who make it special. It was crucial that we knew there was a team there to protect her and try and make her happy. I visited regularly and started to feel like part of a family (as did Loki dog). Importantly the team did not change much as the home retains its valuable people. Managers were always willing to discuss her care, but everyone made so much effort. A small moment that sticks in my mind was the maintenance man taking the time to say, "hello Margaret" and smile as he walked past. Thank you all!

The care, dignity, and compassion Mum receives are exceptional. Communication is excellent, which is vital as I live some distance away. Knowing she is safe, comfortable, and treated with kindness gives us great peace of mind. We would wholeheartedly recommend Beulah Vista.

I would wish these surroundings and kind staff for myself f I ever find myself in my sister's situation. There is always some quality entertainment going on when I visit and we regularly receive some lovely updates and messages showing my sister enjoying time with the other residents. The staff are attentive and kind and the accommodation is both attractive and super comfortable. There are some lovely spaces where my sister can be with others or ,if she chooses, can be quiet and relax on her own for a while.

Communication is excellent. I have been visiting for several years now, and everyone has made my time there very easy. I would highly recommend.

A friend mum met previously at the dementia choir had moved in few months before her so it was an ideal situation where she had a friend down the corridor she already knew. Our mum is very active and loves taking part in all of the art and singing activities and especially loves the outings in the mini bus. Because she is so active we decided to take out an annuity which covers her care for the rest of her life and gives us peace of mind knowing she will be settled with no unexpected upheavals. It's always a pleasure visiting her and her grandkids happily join me and we all enjoy visits to the cinema with mum.

I originally met Gemma, the Home Manager a few years ago and after visiting numerous care homes, I immediately felt reassured that Beulah Vista would be the right place for mum. It is beautifully maintained, with lovely gardens and she has a delightful room. Placing her in a care home was an incredibly difficult decision however the staff and management have been outstanding, not only in the care they provide, but in the kindness, reassurance and support they have shown to both dad and I and with us living close by we are able to visit mum almost every day. In September, my parents celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary at Beulah Vista, it was a wonderful day, everyone at the home made us feel welcome which meant the world to us. The team have helped arrange the right level of care, medical support, and dietary needs, and we receive regular updates which give us great peace of mind. The staff truly feel like family and I cannot thank them enough for everything they do.

My mum has been living with dementia at Beulah Vista for a year. The staff support her to have choice and control over what she chooses to do and positively support her to engage in gardening activities which she has always loved - both in the garden and at the allotment. The care home are always welcoming when we visit, including to our dog!

For me- as her daughter, not only is it a huge relief knowing that my mum is happy, safe and well looked after, I now look forward to seeing her more, knowing we can sit and relax with a cuppa rather than rushing around worrying about cleaning, food etc. The staff feel like friends, I can voicenote them anytime of day about anything and always hear back. My young sons can't wait to visit their Nana and play with the toys in the family room, it really is a home from home. Thank you for everything.

I'm also grateful for the support extended to me. When I've been worried or overwhelmed, they always notice and offer compassion and kindness. Communication and leadership is clear and thoughtful, and it feels like a real partnership, with my Dad's needs at the centre.

On the basis of all the above we also recently moved my mum's cousin (my 2nd cousin) from Surrey so they can be together. Reuniting them after 18 months apart due to their combined complex needs, was a very moving and emotional day. They are so happy to be together again.

My mother spent 5 weeks in respite at Beulah Vista, whilst my dad had a break. My mum has Parkinson's, so has unpredictable walking issues, and can be highly confused. I chose this care home as I know Gemma to be an excellent care home manager and someone I absolutely trust to take care of my mum. Even though the location was a bit far from us I wanted my mum to experience very good care so if we had to move her permanently somewhere she would know what standards to accept. My mum sang, painted, exercised and joined in with activities she never gets to do at home. It was great to see her having an active social life too. She enjoyed being looked after. My brother also visited my mum at the care home and was very happy with how she was getting on. I would thoroughly recommend Beulah Vista based on my mum's experience there.

My dad also really enjoys trips on the minibus to all sorts of activities, bowling, museums, allotment, lunches to name a few. Beulah Vista are amazing and care very much for the residents. This gives my sister and I huge confidence knowing he is happy.

My sister and brother-in-law were both very much in need of rehabilitation and care after both having serious operations. They spent several weeks at Beulah Vista, which feels more like a luxury hotel than a traditional care home, and was exactly the respite and rehabilitation that they needed. The very professional care, attention and support that they received from the wonderful team of staff was absolutely second to none. We are eternally grateful to all at Beulah Vista, and can very highly recommend the services and professional care that they provide.

The staff, both operational and management team, are an amazing group of people delivering excellent care to their residents. very hard working, kind, honest, open, helpful, and always treating the residents and visitors with compassion, respect, listening to their concerns, worries and feelings.Taking a holistic approach to the care of the residents and creating a happy and healthy environment for the residents to live in and flourish.

Finally, I want to give a big thanks to the home manager for taking the time and being so accommodating with us when we were initially trying to get Mum into your amazing care home.

I am so pleased with the care that my mother is receiving at Beulah Vista. The staff are very professional, warm and kind. The staff have a good understanding of dementia and how to support service users with dementia. Mum is always well cared for, the home is in fantastic condition, there are daily activities and the meals smell delicious. I would highly recommend this place!

We looked at several care homes for Mum and in addition, I have seen three others where a friend has been a resident. Without doubt, Beulah Vista Care Home is the best I have seen and we feel confident that Mum is receiving excellent care there. Beulah Vista feels like a hotel rather than a care home and the staff are very motivated to provide high quality care. Mum always said she never wanted to go into a care home and when the time came it was very difficult because although we knew it was in her best interests, it was hard to go against her wishes. But we needn't have worried because within two weeks, she had settled and Beulah Vista had become her new home. I believe the speed of the transformation is testament to the high quality of the care she has received. If only all care homes could be like this.
