It was a very difficult and emotional experience to please our lovely mother in a nursing home so it needed to be the best we could find. Chalkwell Grange is brand new and very clean and pleasant. It is also situated close to where Mum used to live. The staff have been very welcoming, pleasant and obviously kind to our mum. They have listened to and understood any concerns we've had. Obviously, it's early days but activities laid on, hairdressing, nails, great food etc have helped Mum settle. It will be even better once trips out can be arranged.
Thank you for leaving us a review. it has been a pleasure having mum here with us. I will pass your comments on to the team as they will appreciate your kind words.
We went to the open day on 3rd December and had a really good time. Our mother was jolly and enjoying all the great activities on that day, including a fabulous singer. The atmosphere was very happy and made to feel very comfortable. The staff are all so helpful and nothing is too much trouble.

My mum was very against coming to a care home. She has been here for five weeks. She has settled and the other day thanked me for finding her Chalkwell Grange Care Home. She loves all the staff and is benefitting from all the stimulation and activities. The surroundings are beautiful and she is always saying how she loves all the staff. I can speak for all my sisters, we love Chalkwell Grange and so thankful we found it.
Thank you for leaving us a review, it has been lovely having her stay with us and we are so glad she is settled and enjoying her time here.

A dear, close friend has just moved into Chalkwell Grange Care Home as no longer able to live alone. However, since moving in, he has become a new person and very much like the friend I had before being lonely and isolated. The atmosphere of the home is superb and a welcoming, relaxing environment. It is a delight to visit as all the staff are so warm, friendly and professional in their outlook and the care given to my dear friend is wonderful and compassionate. He has also been able to take some furniture, pictures and photographs to make his room homely and relaxing for him. His very well-decorated room is very large and he tells me that he is having the best sleep ever in his comfortable and cosy bed. I have no doubt in my mind that my friend will be cared for, catered and supported for the rest of his life.
Thank you for your review! It has been a delight having him here. I will pass on your review to the team as they will very much appreciate it!
All the staff at Chalkwell Grange Care Home have shown Mum such kindness and compassion. They have taken the time to listen to her. Mum is enjoying the food and activities. She is so so happy. Her laughter and smiles just say it all. Thank you.

Within a day of being there, my mum has changed. The carers encourage her to do things for herself, she is never alone unless she wants to be. They have loads of activities, it's a real home from home. Her room is kept clean and tidy. All her washing is done. The food is just amazing. There is a menu but can have anything she wants. The management team are so helpful and friendly. They took the strain away from us as a family. My mum is so happy and contented and that is because of everyone at Sanders Senior Living. You have given us back our old mum. The staff are so friendly. It's not like a care home at all, this is my mum's new home. Thank you all.
Thank you for your review, it has been a pleasure having Mum here, she really is a wonderful character. The whole team at Chalkwell Grange really appreciate your feedback, thank you again!
A godsend. Mum has settled in well at Chalkwell Grange Care Home for her respite. She has only been in the home for less than a week and I can already see a vast improvement in her health and mental well-being.

A godsend. Mum has settled in well at Chalkwell Grange Care Home for her respite. She has only been in the home for less than a week and I can already see a vast improvement in her health and mental well-being. All the staff are fantastic and have been so caring and considerate to Mum's needs. All the meals are exceptional and this has encouraged Mum to regain her appetite. This truly is a home-from-home. The family are so thankful and relieved to know that Mum is in the very best of care. Thank you!
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are so glad to see Mum's health improving already! I will pass your review on to the team as they will be very happy to hear such kind words!
Over the past few weeks, me and my mum have visited a fair few care homes in our local area as we've been looking for somewhere for my nan. Every one we visited left us feeling so sad as I knew my nan would be so unhappy going into them after wandering around and looking at them. That was until we...
Over the past few weeks, me and my mum have visited a fair few care homes in our local area as we've been looking for somewhere for my nan. Every one we visited left us feeling so sad as I knew my nan would be so unhappy going into them after wandering around and looking at them. That was until we visited Chalkwall Grange Care Home, it is nothing short of amazing! I am happy for her to be living the best life she can in this beautiful place! I recommend this home to anyone who is looking for a home for someone they love! The staff have gone above and beyond to make this step as easy as they can for us and my grandmother and have shown us nothing but kindness and love in what is a hard step to take for any family! This home sets the bar for all other homes to try to follow!
Thank you for such kind and wonderful words; I know the team will be absolutely delighted and it means so much to us all that you and your family feel so welcome at Chalkwell Grange. I'll pass on your thanks to the team and thank you again for taking the time to leave such a lovely review.
