Ladies at reception are so lovely, staff, cleaners and even the gardener all so nice and friendly. We have a new manager and she is super nice and caring. If any problems she is right there to sort things out. could not ask for a better manager any one who says different about Preston House and staff are not very nice themselves.

All staff are...
All staff are friendly, proactive, and caring and go to great lengths to care for my sister.
The 'Activity' service is exemplary, professional, respectful, giving residents encouragement, stimulation, and enjoyment.
Reception is my 'first point of contact,' in person or on the phone, always a helpful caring experience.
The financial process works effectively and I am kept well informed.
I live 400 miles from Preston House and receive a weekly report on my relative from the Management Team and the introduction of a video call with my relative is comforting.

Gary has been in your care 11 months, it's not been without its bumps and twists along the way. Having never needed adult health and social care support before, I didn't know what to expect. On the whole it has been a very positive experience, and the worries or concerns we've had have been dealt with quickly and supportively. My only concerns if I still had to think of any would be things missing belonging to Gary or finding things that aren't his - not a big problem in the grand scale of things. Staffing - not always able to find someone, which concerns me that he and peers are left vulnerable for short periods of time.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience of Gary's first 11 months at Preston House. We understand that moving into adult health and social care can feel daunting, so it means a great deal to hear that, overall, your experience has been a positive one and that any concerns raised have...

Staff are fantastic on dads floor (2) he has his favourites which is nice to see. There are plenty of activities for him to do if he wishes to do so, however he was a very quiet soul and didn't do these things before so we don't expect him to do it now if he doesn't want to but it's lovely to see...
I would like to see him clean shaven daily as he always was at home. He was a very smart tidy man with very high hygiene standards. I like to remember him this way. On this note I would like to see his clothing replaced when he spills food down him. Again I understand if we come down after lunch staff have not had time but when we arrive after two it's not nice to see him wandering around in clothing covered in lunch . We did leave money for dad in the office when he moved in so that he could have hair trims every 6-8 weeks where possible.
Staff are on the ball with dad's health and I trust them 100% that they have his best interests at heart. Thanks to everyone
Thank you for taking the time to share such thoughtful feedback about your dad's care at Preston House. It's lovely to hear how much you value the team on his floor and the genuine relationships they've built with him.

The home was well run and the staff were excellent. They provided a safe haven for my dad and allowed him to have dignity and comfort at the hardest time. They were helpful and understanding and they took a genuine interest in all he had done.

The staff deserve an increase in their salary for the endless help they give my mother and for the other residents and their families.
When my mother was able, she always looked forward to our resident entertainer who comes on a regular basis. She liked to sing with the microphone.
A very good experience of a care home which shows love for others.

My Mum was a resident at Preston House for 5 years before she passed earlier in 2025. I live 500 miles away and my brother is in Australia. The level of respect, care and love received by my Mum meant gave us confidence that she was very well looked after.

I take pleasure in knowing that the staff know at all times where my mother-in-law is, she is very mobile and likes to walk along the corridor to the communal area and her room. The activity coordinators give the resident all their individual need.
Thank you for your kind feedback. It means a great deal to us to know that you feel confident in the care your mother-in-law receives and that the team's attentive and personalised approach is recognised. Thank you.
My brother has been a resident at Preston House for over 2 years. I live 500 miles away but never worry about him as I know he is well cared for and treated with dignity. The care he receives reflects his changing needs. I contact the home very regularly and feel very well supported myself.

Preston House is a truly superb care home. My mum had been a resident there for the past few years after coming from another care home which was terrible until she passed away at the start of April. She had a severe stroke in 2018 and was paralysed down one side so needed full time care of two...
She leads by example and is amazing at her job and all her staff were fantastic at looking after my mum.
I can see why they get good reports from the care Commision as they go above and beyond.
As my mum was entering her last few days the staff would sit with my mum as I couldn't
be there all the time as my husband also has had a stroke so I am his carer at home. I felt really upset that I felt I couldn't be with my mum at the end but the staff made sure she was not in pain and kept her settled and I will be forever grateful for that.
The manager again you and your staff are amazing !!!!
Thank you so much for your kind words. It was our privilege to care for your mum during her time at Preston House. Your generous feedback about the team and the care provided, especially in her final days, means a great deal to us and will be shared with everyone involved.

Our Mum moved into Preston House in August 2021 when, thankfully, the covid restrictions were lifting. I found it very stressful but the staff, especially the manager, settled her in so well. She had a lovely sunny room looking on to the beautiful garden. Her room was always clean and tidy. Sadly she passed away last week but I want to thank every member of staff for the love and respect they gave her even when she was a challenge in the early days. She was quite a character. We will always be grateful that her last years were happy ones.
Thank you. Your words mean so much to our staff team who certainly miss your mum in the home. We feel so lucky to have got to know her over the years and it was our privilege to be able to care and support her.

I always enjoy visiting my gran at the home. I often bring my dog and he is always made welcome but the residents and staff. My gran loves it here as she "gets her washing done and all her meals". There is always someone about if we have any questions or need some help.

I communicate well with the carers. They treat me with respect and talk to me, not down to me, that is good. They listen if you have any problems and try to help and sort them out.

My brother became a resident in Preston House in May 2024. The building and individual rooms are attractive, well-maintained and very clean. The grounds are beautiful and offer lovely outside seating areas. Staff are friendly and nothing seems too much bother for them. The nursing staff are knowledgeable and always discuss any changes to the care plan to ensure that relatives are kept well informed. I have seen a remarkable change in aspects of my brother's well-being due to the attention given to meet his specific needs. The manager maintains a very visible profile on the site. She is approachable and has good knowledge of the residents and their families. There is a wide range of activities available for residents. In conclusion, Preston House staff go the extra mile and give me confidence that my brother is being well looked after and his needs are being well met- A big thank you to all who contribute to his care.

The rooms and public areas are kept beautifully clean and tidy. There is also a really pretty garden area where residents and their friends and family can sit out. The food looked very tasty with a selection of dishes for each meal. There was also tea and coffee with biscuits and cakes served regularly. There are a number of activities planned for the residents - crafts, day trips and concerts.
What makes this Home so special however is the manager and all the lovely staff who were so helpful, kind and patient and looked after my husband so well during his time in Preston House, especially so in his final days. Towards the end, someone would sit with him so he was never alone. That was very comforting for me and I can never thank them enough.
I would certainly highly recommend Preston House.
Thank you for your kind words and for taking the time to leave a review!
