Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I stayed here for 3 weeks in May & was not quite sure what to expect having witnessed my late wife's brief stay in a Care Home several years ago.
I should not have had the slightest concern as my stay at Sleaford Manor was an absolute joy.
From the moment I arrived I was greeted by very kind, polite,
smiley & caring Staff. who always made a point of asking how I was whenever we met.
This lovely Care Home is beautifully furnished & in a lovely setting with immaculate gardens.
If ever I need care in the future I know that I shall want to return to this 5* Hotel!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After viewing a few care homes we came across Sleaford Manor, and we're really glad we did. The environment feels more like a 5* hotel than care home, the staff are lovely, kind and welcoming, the Activties team do a great job keeping people entertained. It's never easy to leave a relative in a care
setting, but we feel happy to leave knowing that our relative is happy and settled.
Reply from Claire Gordon-Rundle, Home Manager at Sleaford Manor Care Homes

Thank you so much for your lovely words, we're glad you came across us too and are pleased to hear that you feel happy leaving your loved one in our care. I'll ensure your kind words are shared with the teams across the home.

Review from M T (Son of Resident) published on 1 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother went to Sleaford Manor initially for respite care. She has subsequently decided to stay and become a permanent resident, which rather speaks for itself. She feels safe, well looked after and has all the support she needs in a very comfortable room. The staff are an ideal combination of
highly professional and friendly. All her medical needs are met through the visiting GP and the district nurse.
My own impressions as a visitor are very favourable. The ambience is more that of a top quality hotel than what I had previously imagined a care home to be like. The facilities are modern and purpose built with attractive lounges, private dining rooms, a hair salon, accessible outside space and even a cinema room. The rooms are bright, spacious and well equipped. I have found the staff, from reception through to the manager, very pleasant to deal with and always willing to help, especially the senior care staff who are all very experienced and have provided great support.
Reply from Claire Gordon-Rundle, Home Manager at Sleaford Manor Care Homes

Thank you for your wonderful five star feedback. We're so pleased to read that your mother has decided to stay with us permanently. It's warming to know that she feels safe and supported. Thank you again for your kind words - it's hugely appreciated by the whole team.

Mum went into Steaford Manor for respite care.
She was made to feel very welcome as soon as she arrived and we have found that the home has done everything to meet her needs. The staff are lovely and we cannot praise them enough. For someone who didn't really want to go into a home, she has settled
well and seems to be enjoying her break. Thank you, Sleaford Manor!

I stayed for 2 weeks respite care after a knee joint replacement and found all the staff. From management to carers and cleaners, extremely helpful and caring. I would certainly recommend your home to anyone. The facilities are excellent. The food is good and entertainment is also good, in fact the
overall experience couldn't be faulted.

Staff were welcoming, polite and efficient and were aware of the need to provide for personal space. Entertainment facilities were good and there is a lovely patio/garden for warmer weather sitting out.
Plenty of space in rooms/corridors and communal areas. Clean and well kept. Quality of meals adequate.

It took a week of so for my grandmother to settle due to some teething issues, however the management team and staff have been attentive to feedback and have worked very hard to resolve the small issues. As a family we are very pleased with the care and support provided. My grandma is delighted with
her room and the food provided. Thank you for all you do to make this difficult transition smooth and pleasant, we are very grateful.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
We moved Dad from a care home in another area in June to be closer to family and I wish we'd done it sooner. The communication between senior staff and myself was excellent, I was informed of issues arising with Dad's health regularly. Care staff, including domestic and kitchen, were all conscientious
and the care and respect Dad was given was very good. The facilities are excellent during warmer days. The activities team were inclusive to all floors and adapted dementia residents and their needs. Learning about residents likes/dislikes was obviously priority and made Dad's stay a better experience. Since Dad passed away we have been shown nothing but care and respect. Thank you to everyone who dealt with Dad.

Everywhere was very clean. The staff were always cheerful, welcoming and helpful. Good variety of food and a good standard. Potion size also. The room was clean and had a lovely view. Comfortable bed. Talking to family was tricky. I would have liked my own phone. As I am unable to use a mobile phone.
The family had trouble getting through and sometimes messages didn't get through.
Reply from Claire Gordon-Rundle, Home Manager at Sleaford Manor Care Homes

We are pleased you enjoyed your stay at Sleaford Manor. We are sorry you had issues communicating with your family. For future stays, we are able to set up a telephone, with a direct number, in your bedroom. Thank you.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother-in-law stayed for two weeks here and had a positive experience overall. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and the staff were always friendly, cheerful and helpful. The food was good and there were a variety of meals, with good portion sizes. Her room was lovely and fresh with lots of space for
clothes/belongings, with a pretty view of the garden and a comfy bed. Although she didn't join in much, there seemed to be a variety of activities available.
She cannot use a mobile phone and communication was often tricky, with family and friends finding it hard to get through at times. It would be amazing if on the next stay (she definitely wants to return), she could have her own phone in her room.
Reply from Yorkare Homes Group, Experience Coordinator at Sleaford Manor Care Homes

Thank you for taking the time to leave the home and team such a lovely review. On your mother-in-law's next stay with the home, we can of course have a telephone setup in her room, the points are already available for each of the bedrooms, please just ask and this can be arranged for her. We look forward to seeing you all again.

Thank you so much to Sleaford Manor Care Homes for providing such wonderful care and support over the time in residence my father had in the home. He was always well looked after, and he really enjoyed the fantastic cuisine. He was treated with dignity and respect. His room was immaculate, very spacious

Our father's been a resident at the care home for around 6 months now. The staff and management at the home are a credit to your company. The care and love that they show him and the manner in which they treat and respond to his needs is first class. Everyone is friendly and welcoming, very open and
honest in any communication or conversation. Well done and thank you.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Sleaford Manor is a very special place. Whilst the facilities are fantastic, it is the staff who are the real wizards here. They all go above and beyond. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and I am always made to feel that Mum and I are the sole purpose of their day. It is so rare to find this level
of consistency throughout an entire organisation and is something money cannot buy. Mum initially went for respite care, but the love and kindness she received made the huge decision to become a resident so easy for her. Mum dreams of swimming again. The staff are really keen to help her achieve this goal, which is reflective of their exceptional dedication to all of their residents. There is plenty to motivate each day, from the activities programme to the menu. Mum is always praising the quality, nutrition and variety of the food served. We are both very thankful that we discovered the amazing team at Sleaford Manor.

My friend is very well cared for here. The food is fabulous, her needs are met, and she isn't made to do things she doesn't want to (e.g. joining in social events). I can visit at times to suit our circumstances. The home is clean and clutter-free, and the staff are brilliant.

Since visiting Sleaford Manor in the summer of 2023, I have been overwhelmed by the ambience of the home. The friendliness of the staff and the approachability of the management is refreshing. The whole setting exudes a family atmosphere.
I have been so impressed that I recommended it to three other
friends whose parents/relatives stayed for respite. It leaves other providers in the shade.

My 85-year-old mum moved into Sleaford Manor on the 5th of March 2024. Initially, Mum (and us) were very apprehensive about this but we did not need to worry as we have all been extremely impressed and overwhelmed with how wonderful and kind all the staff have been. This includes the cleaners, carers,
kitchen and activity staff as well as the management team. Everyone has been so welcoming and helpful, nothing has been too much trouble, they really go that extra mile. The building is stunning and Mum's room is beautiful with views overlooking the pretty garden. The facilities are outstanding and Mum and us are encouraged to participate in the interesting/fun daily activities as well as eat in the fabulous restaurant where the food is delicious. We have also booked one of the fabulous lounge areas for Mum's private birthday party in April. I cannot praise Sleaford Manor enough. What we thought was going to be a difficult and upsetting transition has proved to be a smooth and joyful experience and that is firmly down to all the wonderful staff, my family and I honestly cannot thank you enough.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.847)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.847) out of 10 for Sleaford Manor Care Homes is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.847 for Sleaford Manor Care Homes is calculated as follows: ( (263 Excellents x 5) + (43 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 308 Ratings = 4.847
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Sleaford Manor Care Homes is based on 26 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 70 registered maximum number of service users is 14, which has been reached with 26 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
