My mother is very happy at Merton Place. The staff are caring and considerate and cannot do enough to make my mothers life as happy and comfortable as possible.

The only issue is the highly variable quality of the catering.

Residential client. Receiving fabulous care. Staff extremely kind when she was unwell. Staff are supportive and encouraging. Engage my aunt in all activities. Great variety of entertainment. Really help pick her up after suffering a bereavement. Couldn't praise the staff enough.

Overall Experience

I visit my friend, who has had a severe stroke, as often as I can. I am always greeted in a friendly manner by the staff who let me in. The home smells nice and is always clean and tidy. My friend is as comfortable as she can be in an adjustable bed. Her room is modern and well decorated, if a little small.

There is nowhere else I would rather be. If the quality of our food improved, I would be happy, which I am sure other residents would feel that as well.

Review from T J (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 June 2026 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Mum has been a resident at Merton Place for almost 3 years. It was my first choice when looking for a home. The home is modern, extremely clean, and welcoming. All the staff are very friendly, and some carers have a particular bond with mum. They all know my family and me by name. There are activities 5 days a week, but I do think some consideration should be given to residents' capabilities. My mum's stroke means she can't read or write, so quizzes, bingo, and reading activities are not activities she can participate in.

Reply from Gillian Rowlands, Home Manager at Merton Place

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review and for trusting Merton Place with your mum's care over the past three years.

We are delighted to hear that Merton Place was your first choice and that you continue to find the home welcoming, clean, and friendly. It means a great...

Review from Anthony W (Husband of Resident) published on 12 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The staff are very hard-working and are not appreciated by the management. My wife has been a resident since September 2025. Fairways have taken over the home, and some improvements have been made; other things are not as good. It would be good if there was some kind of support for relatives who don't find it easy seeing their loved ones in a nursing home

Reply from Gillian Rowlands, Home Manager at Merton Place

Activities not used because of being bed bound. Some difficulty in getting all staff to understand the need of help in mealtimes - feeding etc. Little connection with management.

Overall Experience

My dad was a resident here for 3 years and it was honestly a place he called home. Staff were amazing with him and tried to involve him in all activities even though sometimes that was difficult. We are so glad my dad got to spend his last years here where he was happy.

Reply from Rahi Joshi, Marketing Associate at Merton Place

Thank you so much for your kind words. It truly means a lot to us that your dad felt at home here and was happy during his time with us. We're grateful to have been part of his journey and send you and your family our warmest wishes

Mum only spent a couple of months here but was at all times treated with care and respect. The staff were polite and friendly whenever we visited, and I'm grateful to them for making Mum's last couple of months comfortable. There was a warm, welcoming atmosphere in the place.

Overall Experience

My mum is the most precious thing to me and knowing that she is being taken care of is a godsend. Mum has been in Merton Place for nearly 7 years and I cannot praise the staff more for taking such good care of her and keeping in touch with the family. Putting family members in care homes is a difficult decision but having an excellent care home helps to diminish any worries.

Review from M R (Son of Resident) published on 14 December 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

A modern care home with pleasant, well-equipped rooms for residents with lots of space in the other common rooms (sitting and dining areas). Staff look after Dad very well and care for him and his needs. As I don't live in the area, I rely on the home for updates about Dad and any specific needs he requires me to sort out. I always feel welcomed and have access with my own key card to the setting (following the reduction in Covid rules). They also have a good relationship with the local health services (GP and specialist services) when further intervention is required.

My mother has been a resident here for approximately two years. It is a lovely place and I have been so grateful to all the staff for their skill, concern and care. I live a long way from North Wales and knowing my mother is in such a safe and caring place gives me great peace of mind, for which I am very grateful.

Overall Experience

My dad needed to spend some time in full-time care during the summer and we were fortunate enough to be able to find a place for him at Merton Place. All of the team are so helpful and friendly and nothing was ever too much trouble. Dad really enjoyed being there and the staff made him feel so well cared for. Sadly, he reached the end of life during his stay and the care and compassion shown to Dad and all of us, was something we will always be grateful for.

Review from Tony M (Son of Resident) published on 9 December 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My father was admitted to Merton Place in May 2022 after spending considerable time in the hospital. As a family, we were concerned as to how he would settle in a care home. We needn't have worried!
The manager, her deputy and all the nursing and care team staff at Merton Place have done everything they could to welcome Dad into his new home, or hotel as he likes to think of it. Nothing is too much trouble and after an initial settling-in period Dad has benefitted from the increased social interaction he now has and is enjoying the attention, comfort and surroundings of his new home. The welcoming and caring environment at Merton Place is the first thing that strikes you when you step inside. There is always a cheerful smile and welcome greeting to meet you. All residents are treated with dignity and respect and immediately made to feel part of a larger, happy family.

The regular weekly entertainment and activities are enjoyed by all a ready stimulus for chat and happy memories.
