Very friendly staff, clean, good nursing care, my mother is a strong willed person who knows what she wants and can be quite stubborn at times as I’m sure your staff know but the fact is they look after and manage her ways so well.

My father has been a resident for the last 18 months since becoming too frail and forgetful to look after himself.
He is well supported by the caring staff, regularly showered and shaved and his basic needs are well catered for.
Out of choice he does not socialise, he spends most of his time in his
room but he eats well, is kept clean and his medication is properly administered.
It is comforting to know he is in a safe, secure and friendly environment

A warm, friendly welcome is always waiting at reception, which sums up the whole atmosphere in this building. The staff work very hard but are always willing to have a friendly chat. Mum-in-law was a resident in her final years, so we had no hesitation in placing Mum in here when she was finding life
in her own house a bit too much. After three months here, she takes part in lots of brilliantly organised activities and has been made very welcome. Can't thank all the lovely staff at Kentford enough!

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My father has been in Kentford Manor for nearly three months after a fall at home and he had decided to stay long-term. He finds all the staff very friendly and helpful and enjoys the activities which are arranged for the residents most weekday mornings and afternoons (although he is the only man who
goes to these). He seems much happier than being home alone since my mother died.
However, he does think that the home is short-staffed (I daresay this is the same everywhere) as the staff are always very busy and he does not like to ask for help getting showered or dressed. He says there is plentiful food and a choice but it is not restaurant standard. He enjoys a beer with his lunchtime meal and likes to be able to give visitors a posh coffee from the machine in the bar area.
He has a new widescreen TV and a telephone landline in his sunny ground floor room. Everywhere is carpeted which makes it homely and it has a nice, well-maintained sunny garden for the residents to enjoy.
Reply from Samantha Debenham, Personal Assistant at Kentford ManorThank you very much for taking the time to write your review of Kentford Manor - we’re really happy that your dad is settling in well here and for your kind words about the team. I would like to take a moment to reassure you that the home is not short-staffed in any way, and we always make sure we have plenty of team members in the home to keep residents safe and supported seven days a week, 24 hours a day. All meals are prepared in-house by our chef-led team, using fresh local ingredients where available, with plenty of choice and menus planned with feedback from residents – if you, or your dad, could let us know what meals aren’t quite up to par, we will, of course, look into this. If there’s also anything he would also like added to the menu, we can discuss this too and make sure there are some of his favourites included. Thank you again, and please don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any further comments, queries or suggestions and we’ll be happy to assist.

We moved my mother-in-law to Kentford Manor at the end of March. It was difficult to start with because her dementia meant that she could not understand why she needed to be there and it was only because of the skill and attention of the highly experienced staff that she gradually began to settle. She
loves the food, often points out how nice her room is, and frequently participates in the many interesting activities the staff lay on for the residents. This week, she had been doing some gardening, which she very much enjoyed. She still has some way to go, but we are very impressed with the care she has received at Kentford.

I love the balance of professionalism, care, respect, and autonomy given to my Mum. She is looked after carefully.


All staff seem to have integrity and understanding. This can be taxed in some difficult circumstances at times but they feel like a strong and exemplary team.


The Home is proactive,

welcoming, and always clean and tidy. My Mum has engaged with many of the activities and is comfortable and content with her surroundings.


I have nothing but gratitude and huge respect for the individual staff that I see most often.

My husband has been at the home for 6-months during which time he has had consistently good care. The carers know his needs and cope well with the changes in behaviour that dementia causes. I visit him daily and any concerns I have are dealt with in a professional and caring manner. The carers work
tirelessly to enable the residents to have a good quality of life and I can’t praise them enough. The highlight of my husband's day is the tasty meals which he enjoys. Thank you to all of the staff for looking after my husband.

The place is immaculate, bright and has a friendly atmosphere. From the moment one enters the premises there is a sense of professionalism and attention to detail in the care of residents - from clothing through to fingernail polish etc - all giving residents in their twilight times a sense that they
matter. The rooms are clean and tidy, the food is nutritious - not overly fancy just good and gives the residents a balanced diet. The residents are given water/fruit juice throughout the day - and it is always available. I would recommend the care home to anyone.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife had suffered from dementia for approximately eighteen months prior to our search for residential care accommodation and following a consultation process (Gracewell) Kentford Manor was recommended by a very reliable authority.
First impressions were and have remained most impressive concerning
the personnel and the accommodation. I have come to appreciate and rely upon the eclectic coalition of professional disciplines that coalesce well and constitute a hugely talented staffing element demonstrating professionalism altruism in support of my wife's condition.
There obtains an overwhelming desire to support the residents, and visitors, which acts as a catalyst to further develop the function to the highest standards. This extends to the diversity of the stimulating content constituting the activities' sessions with all elements forming specific and consistent pathways to excellence.
In my experience levels of professionalism and service we have relied upon and I trust will be maintained.

The ambience is lovely. The staff very caring and helpful. Food is great. Every care is taken to look after Aunty who has been there for a couple of years. Her room is kept clean and she appears comfortable and well looked after. Indeed she has put weight on since arriving as she loves the food. She
is commonly to be found enjoying the regular activities or sitting in the lounge listening to music or watching a film.

My 98-year-old sister-in-law a very private lady became unwell and unable to cope at home so, therefore, needed complete nursing care. Therefore, we the family needed to find a suitable care home that would suit her needs. This we thought could be a problem however, thanks to wonderful Gracewell and
the care she receives she is very happy there and calls it home.

As I live in the USA I have not been able to personally visit the UK due to travel restrictions. I can only say that all my communications with Gracewell, either by telephone or email, have been excellent. Their responses have been very timely, informational, very friendly and professional. It is very
difficult when you have so many miles plus time differences to grapple with. Every time I have sent an email to inquire about the health and well-being of my sister a response has been forthcoming within twelve hours. Every time I have telephoned I have always been transferred to a carer that can give me the updates that I need in a speedy fashion. Based on these responses, I would have no hesitation in recommending Gracewell to anyone seeking to place a loved one in a care facility.
Reply from Peter Walton, General Manager at Kentford ManorHere at Gracewell of Kentford, we believe communication with family members and friends is very important. This enables us to provide understanding and confidence to relatives of our high-quality care whilst also giving us the opportunity to improve our service.

I had had no experience of Care Homes until my late mum went to live in Gracewell of Kentford for the last three months of her life. I was so impressed by the care and kindness shown to mum that I wanted to write this review. Firstly, the nurses and carers are all highly professional and all my family
had great confidence in them. They all treated mum wonderfully, mindful of her dignity at all times. There was laughter, humour, consideration and flexibility. Every resident is a guest. The manager and staff are clearly determined to create a family atmosphere. Gracewell is like a hotel, with lovely decor, fresh flowers, fun activities and delicious food! Gracewell proved its worth during the pandemic - realising the importance to residents and family of visiting, the staff did absolutely everything they could to ensure we were able to visit mum every day safely. We will be eternally grateful for this. All care homes should be like Gracewell.

Gracewell of Kentford have been absolutely fabulous in looking after my mother in this most challenging of times. When I have been able to see her she has always looked so well. My mother has been resident for over 7 years and when she entered the home was not in a good way. She has received both great
care and attention and the most comforting for me is knowing that the same people have been caring for her over the years. I have only great praise and heart-felt thanks to all the team for looking after her so well.

Gracewell of Kentford provides an excellent service in caring for my mum with her dementia requirements. The staff give a loving and compassionate environment and help to bring out my mum on her bad days and encourage her on her good days.

Mum has been a resident at Gracewell since July 2019 and we are so pleased that we chose Gracewell as her care home. I feel that the home provides first-class accommodation while managing to feel ‘homely’. Mum has a bright, sunny room at the front of the building, enabling her to watch all the comings
and goings. Everyone who has visited comments on how clean and fresh the home feels.
The care and support that Mum receives are second to none. She is always treated with dignity and compassion. I can’t fault the dedication of the staff. This has been especially apparent during the Covid 19 crisis when they have gone above and beyond to ensure that Mum is safe and loved.
Gracewell offers a wide variety of activities and residents are encouraged to join in. Mum particularly enjoys the lovely gardens, curling and bingo. There are regular visits from outside entertainers and frequent parties to celebrate special dates.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Gracewell.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.745)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.745) out of 10 for Kentford Manor is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.745 for Kentford Manor is calculated as follows: ( (235 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (11 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 271 Ratings = 4.745
  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 Kentford Manor is based on 23 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 88 registered maximum number of service users is 17.6, which has been reached with 23 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.

Job Title: Home Manager

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 and 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.
