We honestly couldn't be happier with the care she has received. The staff are all incredibly kind, caring and patient, and they've done such a wonderful job of helping Mum settle in and feel comfortable and safe.
Carpenders Park is a beautiful, luxurious home, but it's the wonderful staff who really make it special. We know Mum is being looked after extremely well, and it gives us such peace of mind knowing she is somewhere she is cared for with genuine kindness and compassion.
We're so grateful to everyone at Carpenders Park for everything they do for Mum.

When seeking out a care home for a family member, first impressions are most important, and Carpenders Park came up tops! There was a warm, friendly welcome into a light, spacious reception area and from there glass walled corridors leading to en suite rooms (larger than any viewed elsewhere) and many other amenities. Once my sister was admitted, the interest, care and attention from ALL staff members could not be faulted and the door of her room was let open at her wish, so that she would watch or chat with any staff going past if they were able to spare the time, no matter how short. She was given one on one care with feeding when her appetite failed and she could no longer join other residents in the dining room; all quietly arranged without having to be asked. The welcome and support I and other visitors were given throughout was amazing and never changed, no matter how often we visited. And what a relief that there was always ready parking available! Thank you all at Carpenders Park.
Thank you for your lovely review , we are so glad you were happy with the care your sister received, its always lovely to receive such positive feed back.
I have been visiting my friend in the Care Home for 20 months, on a weekly basis. I have been made very welcome by the staff and have always been very impressed by the care taken of the residents. The entertainment is amazing.

My 91 year old Mum moved into Carpenders Park Care home 6 weeks ago on a permanent basis. She was very apprehensive about this move from her family home, but from the moment we walked through the doors the staff were friendly and welcoming and instantly made her feel at ease and comfortable. Mum is...
On my visits I'm also made welcome by all staff starting with the reception team as you sign in.
All the rooms and communal areas are spotlessly clean and decorated to feel homely. The cafe is a nice area in which to sit with mum and chat while having a cuppa and biscuit or cake. Mum joined in bingo for the first time and was over the moon to win a little prize. As a family we highly recommend Carpenders Park care home.
Thank you for your kind review and recommendation. We're so pleased to hear your mum has settled in well and feels happy and supported at Carpenders Park. We'll be sure to share your kind words with the team, who will be delighted to know they've made such a positive difference.

I booked myself into care straight from discharge from hospital after knee replacement surgery. I am a widow and live alone and felt that I would be unable to look after myself. It was the best thing I could of done as I received excellent care which stood me in good stand for when I returned home. I was there for 2 weeks of respite. My physiotherapist says I am making excellent progress. Thank you to the home manager and to all her lovely staff.

Mum calls it her home and she is so well cared for that she says she doesn't want to leave.
On Christmas Eve mum celebrated her 102nd birthday.
The team went above and beyond to make the day special with birthday wishes, enormous number 102 balloons, a tiara, birthday glasses and a special rosette with 102 on it.,
They had arranged for her hair and nails to be done, ( even at that age my mum loves sparkles and to look and smell nice every day with her lippy, perfume and jewellery on)
As a family we had lunch with her in the private dining room and the chefs had made her a huge birthday cake which in the afternoon was shared among other residents and families with a bit of a party in the cafe area.
Where mum was given a beautiful bouquet of flowers, a special pop up card and a pressie and everyone sang happy birthday.

Amazing! Definitely the best decision for my Dad to stay at Carpenders Park Care Home. Both management team and staff are fantastic! Kind, caring, friendly and knowledgeable. I cannot speak highly enough of CP. So very helpful and supportive and many of the staff (including managers) went over and above their duties to care for my Dad. I am so happy with CP. I am thinking of volunteering!

I booed myself into Country Court, Carpenders Park for two weeks respite as I was having a bunion removed and needed to keep my foot elevated, which would be difficult living on my own. I cannot fault my experience, nothing was too much trouble for the staff. The food was freshly prepared and full of flavour. There was always activities to join in with so you didn't get bored, films to watch, quizzes etc. I would certainly recommend Country Court.
Thank you for your kind review of Carpenders Park Care Home. We are so pleased to know you enjoyed your stay with us and that you would recommend our services to others.
