The staff here have been absolutely outstanding, amazing and really very nice too. My parents have moved into a beautiful double room, together, all at very short notice and in challenging circumstances. It has been seamless, the home is exactly that, they fit right in, are very well looked after and the whole place has a warm friendly and efficient atmosphere. Mum and Dad are happy, already looking more healthy, less worn and very comfortable, at home. The medical staff are very thorough, the food amazing and the managers are very committed, caring, friendly people. I recommend anyone who wants their parents to have a fantastic place to relax to consider our experience at Kentford as a pointer in the right direction. I am so happy to have found this gem.

Mother-in-law was in need of respite care. From the first phone call to Kentford Manor everything was very well organised. There was nothing that was too much to ask for.

We needed to find a care home for our dad for end-of-life care. Upon walking into Kentford Manor, we knew it was the one. We have not been disappointed.

We needed to find a care home for our dad for end-of-life care. Upon walking into Kentford Manor, we knew it was the one. We have not been disappointed. The respect, dignity and care for not only our dad, but his family has been second to none. The manager and her team are outstanding. A huge thank you to the carers and nurses there, a nurse and a carer stood out in not only their professionalism, but caring attitude, but the whole team there are all great. A huge thank you from us for making this difficult time so much easier knowing he was safe and well cared for.

I am very impressed by the quality of care here. The carers here are very caring. They get to know the residents’ natures, and their likes and dislikes very quickly. You do feel that they love the residents and want them to be treated as they would want their own family treated. It has a warm, friendly atmosphere and for both my mother and her family it is as if we belong to one big family here. The activities’ leaders are excellent and lead a wide variety of activities. There could perhaps be more of them for such a big home.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write your review – we’re so pleased to see your high scores and read your lovely comments, particularly about the care and team at Kentford Manor. For activities, we do have a wonderful activity team, but we feel lifestyle should be a whole home approach, so make sure that everyone can join in to help, and enjoy interacting with the residents, as part of their work day too. Of course, if there are any particular activities or trips out you feel your mother would enjoy, just let us know and we’ll be happy to help. Thank you again for your review – we really do appreciate it.

My mother has been at Kentford Manor for almost a year. The home is lovely, modern, bright and spotlessly clean. All the staff are extremely friendly, helpful and caring. There are daily activities led by co-ordinators who provide a stimulating programme of activities, Mum particularly loves the weekly musical entertainment. Relatives are always made to feel welcome, with coffee, tea and cakes always available in the bistro. If you are looking for a safe and happy home, then Kentford Manor is the place. Mum calls her carers ‘her friends’.
Many thanks.

We were very concerned to find the right care home for Mum and were recommended Kentford by the hospital after Mum was having issues with falling and her mobility. We are so pleased with Kentford. Mum seems happier than she has been in years. The team are hard-working and friendly, the home feels fresh and well-maintained. The activities for the residents planned by the staff member responsible enhance Mum's life and she loves to take part. After a difficult decision, it’s turned out for the best and nice to see her content and well looked after.

Hi David, thank you very much for taking the time to leave us feedback about your experience.

Once again, thank you for your feedback, and we look forward to seeing you again soon. Kind regards.
Overall a very high standard of care, from the nursing staff, management and reception. The only issue we had was the slow administration of our refund from head office which is clearly separate from the care aspect in the home itself.

Have spent the last 2 days visiting my Mum here during the day. The staff are friendly, kind and professional. My mother's complex needs are being attended to very well. The food is lovely and the garden is very nice too. Thank you.

My wife and I attended the summer party, it was just a lovely afternoon of entertainment and fantastic food. It was uplifting to see the residents' faces light up when all the old songs were sung. The deputy manager and the team did the residents and guests proud.

In truth, the staff are still getting to know my mother and her 'little ways'. Whilst she appears settled, the reintroduction of the activities staff will be a 'quality of life' change, with something to keep her involved and entertained. Management open and listens to concerns. The home is clean and the garden accessible. I applaud all the staff and their patience, their professionalism and smiles. I hope Care UK recognise their commitment accordingly.
Many thanks, the Care UK team.

All the staff are incredibly caring and nothing seems to be too much trouble for them.
Many thanks, the Care UK team
The only negative I have is when short-staffed and agency staff are on, some things are overlooked e.g. change of pads and not always around if a resident is in need of help. Since my mum has been a resident here, she has improved in all aspects of her life. She's eating three meals a day, joining...
The only negative I have is when short-staffed and agency staff are on, some things are overlooked e.g. change of pads and not always around if a resident is in need of help. Since my mum has been a resident here, she has improved in all aspects of her life. She's eating three meals a day, joining in the activities, is happier and talking. I cannot fault the staff at Kentford Manor at all.
Thank you for writing a review for us. I am glad to see Mum has made progress in all aspects after moving to Kentford Manor. However, I am sorry to hear that you feel that sometimes things are overlooked. I want to reassure you that we are never short on team members and always have enough people...
Thank you for writing a review for us. I am glad to see Mum has made progress in all aspects after moving to Kentford Manor. However, I am sorry to hear that you feel that sometimes things are overlooked. I want to reassure you that we are never short on team members and always have enough people on hand to care for all residents safely and to our high standards day and night. There are times, such as due to unexpected colleague illness, where we may have to call on agency staff – however, we would always try to see if our own team members might be able to cover before doing this, and, if using agency staff, we always employ individuals who already know the home and residents where we can. Thank you again for your comments and excellent scores, and please don’t hesitate to speak to the manager or team at the home if you have any comments or suggestions.
My mother has been staying at Kentford Manor since autumn last year and this home keeps on impressing me. Superlative. The staff are highly proficient, approachable and greet visitors and residents alike with a cheery smile. Well done.

I started working at Care UK in 2014 through an agency for Glastonbury Court. I’m proud to have worked my way up, having started in the domestic team, then moved into care and a managerial position as a residential lead at Davers Court, followed by Home Manager roles at Mildenhall Lodge and now Kentford Manor.
I see managing a care home as a privilege. I am very passionate about my role and doing the best for the home, residents, relatives and colleagues. I believe that being open and honest, relatable, reliable and approachable to all groups is very important to achieve the best outcomes for all.
I love working at Kentford Manor because of the challenge of my new role, and I’m excited to build new relationships with the team and, most of all, the lovely residents and families here.
To be successful in this role, you need to have patience, empathy, and an understanding of different residents, staff, and family members. You should be polite, always be there to listen and try to understand every situation through different eyes.
The best part of my job is seeing the residents happy, having fun and being able to live their lives the best they can.
A big passion of mine is football, and I love to spend time with my daughter. We love to watch her dad play football all weekend.
