Evelyn Court has been a wonderful home for my mum. The staff are so caring and professional, making sure mum is safe and well looked after. It has made dad's life so much easier and happier. The staff always have time for any questions or worries we may have. It was a hard decision but they have made ours an easy one and we are so grateful for everything they've done, making this transition smooth and welcoming.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review. We are so pleased we have made the journey a little easier for you and your family.

My brother has been at Evelyn Court since December 2025 I have nothing but praise for the staff I have watched them with other residents always gentle and caring and the same with my brother. When he was ill recently they were equally caring with me. I have never seen his room anything but imaculate - a fantastic home.
My mother has been in Evelyn Court for 2 months. She has moved from her flat in Wales and it has been a huge challenge for her. The staff team have worked so hard and with her concerns in mind at all times. I am very thankful too for the support they have given me in those months in a quiet and...
My review of activities reflects the fact that I haven't observed many as yet.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. It must be reassuring to hear Mum say how happy and cared for she is. We have activities daily, ranging from one to one time, entertainers, group sessions and much more all of which are personalised for each individual. Please take a look on the notice board in the village green for information on all upcoming activities.

My Dad has just spent 7 weeks at Evelyn court whilst we waited for somewhere nearer to home and I was utterly blown away by the way the staff manage this home. The care and attention shown for my Dad by the staff was absolutely exemplary. There is such a special way that they care for people here that as soon as my Dad would arrive after a day out, you could see him literally soften and relax when he was welcomed back by them. He would get really anxious as he couldn't remember where he was returning to as his Alzheimer's is pretty bad. We have looked at quite a few homes over the last year , staying at 3 and the love and care at Evelyn court has been outstanding. The dementia journey has been pretty traumatic recently but the staff at Evelyn court smoothed it massively. Huge kudos to all involved!! 5 stars.
Appreciate you taking the time to share your experience of Evelyn court. Thank you.

After a few months of mum being in and out of hospital. She finally became a resident at Evelyn Court Care Home. All mums' care is tailored and planned to meet her needs, which has resulted in her enjoying life again after a confusing and difficult time. There is always a warm welcome and as a relative feel valued and listened to. It's a great team of friendly, caring, and professional staff. Thank you, everyone!

Felt very lucky to secure a bed for my mum at Evelyn Court following a fall and a stay in hospital. She has now been there for nearly 3 months. The building itself is very homely, bright and cheerful and designed specifically for the needs of residents with dementia. You can visit any time you like day or night with no prior appointment. The best assets of Evelyn Court are the management and staff. From the initial phone call to where we are now I can honestly say that all members of staff including kitchen, laundry and cleaning, go above and beyond to look after the people in their care with compassion, love and joy. Thank you to the fantastic team of staff who are so well led by Rebecca and Kat.
We too are lucky to have met your wonderful Mum and lovely family. Your kind words mean the world to the team, thank you.
From the moment My Uncle came to stay with you in December till now, I have been very impressed with the warmth, love and genuine care given to him and all of his relative's who have visited. It's lovely to know we are all welcome to pop in anytime. My uncle seems happy in his world and relaxed...

This is a very sad day for me as it is the realization that my partner is no longer with us. Barbara came to the sister home to Evelyn Court in January 2025.She was quite a challenging case and at times presented very difficult behaviour. As her dementia progressed so did her demands on everyone who cared for her. In June 2025 she joined the team at the newly built Evelyn Court along with many support staff from the sister home. I have found Evelyn Court to be excellent with regards to its facilities, nothing has been spared in meeting the residents needs. I have always found the staff to be wonderful and I have no words to describe my admiration for every single one of them. On a personal note I have been embraced and supported through some very emotional events with warmth and love and I have drawn such comfort in knowing Barbara's final year was in such a caring environment. I highly recommend Evelyn Court to anyone seeking a quality care provision for their loved one.
Thank you for such lovely words. You both will always be part of our family and you can visit us any time.
What was a dreadful time for myself was made...
Thank you to everyone of you.
We thank you from the bottom of our hearts to you for finding the time during your sadness to leave us this lovely review. Please know our door is always open to you should you even need us.

My dad has just moved in to Everlyn Court 2 weeks ago. After visiting numerous care and nursing homes as soon as I walked in to Everlyn court I know it was the right place and by far the best home I visited. The manager and staff were and are fantastic. The rooms are spacious and have their own toilets and showers. There is a family cafe inside which is really well priced and food is nice. The building is brand new with great outside facilities and it feels more like a hotel than a nursing home. The food is really nice and freshly made for the residents and the home has a nice fresh clean smell compared to many I visited. There is also a hair salon there which is very convenient. This is by far the best nursing home I have been in. They even have family rooms on top floor in case patients are end of life which I thought was a really good idea. Most of the staff I have met have worked for the company for years which to me is a good thing rather than a lot of homes having temporary staff
We as a team can not thank you enough for such kind words, i will share this with all the team.
Mum moved in to Evelyn court rather urgently in July 2025. They were efficient and organised in accepting and welcoming her with open arms providing immediate exemplary care adapted to her individual complex needs. The environment, the building and above all every single member of staff were just...
A very happy place to be, full of happy residents and staff alike. I can honestly say (with having lots of experience in nursing care) Evelyn court is above and beyond in every aspect.
We as a team can not thank you enough for such kind words. We are so lucky to care for people like your Mum and meet lovely families like yours.

The whole team cared not only for the residents but the families too. Nothing was too much trouble and although my husband was unable to verbalise his thoughts I'm sure that he would agree that all the staff from managers, medical team, and carers to the catering staff and anyone else in between, cared for the residents with great kindness, with humour and enthusiasm, maintaining dignity and using knowledge and experience too. I could go on ..I would have no hesitation in recommending Evelyn Court to anyone.
You will always be a part of the Evelyn court family. Thank you for your kind words, I will share with the team.
My father received excellent care at Evelyn Court. The home it's self is fantastic and a lot of thought has gone in to making residents stay there a stimulating and safe experience but the real asset is the team of staff there.

My father has been in the home for 3 weeks and I can't fault the care received - the Manager has been so supportive and caring, the carers so genuinely caring and lovely and the homemade food is delicious. The rooms are immaculate and the range of activities brilliant.
