Review from Lesley S (Daughter of Resident) published on 27 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father was in need of residential care when his PA moved out of his locality. I and my sisters were expecting that dad would resist residential care, preferring to stay in his own home. We explained that this could not happen due to his increasing support needs and also the fact that his personal
funds could no longer support 24/7 care in his own home. We explained that we would need to sell his house to fund future care costs. I contacted a care directory whom I had used in the past - they duly sent me a shortlist of homes in our chosen locality. I contacted Fairway View - they personally dropped a brochure off at my house, I arranged an initial visit on the Thursday, arranged a visit with dad on the Friday and he loved it from that moment on. No one was more surprised than the family! he has been at Fairway View since mid July, has made friends with other residents, says the staff are lovely and can't do enough for him, and (very important to dad) the food is excellent.

My mum visited Fairway view for 2 weeks respite and ended up staying for 4! She loved it! Living alone with Dementia and Alzheimer's she missed company, this is exactly what she needed. All the staff are absolutely fantastic, soo friendly and caring. Mum made lots of friends and did many activities
while there, she loved having her hair and nails done. We are hoping mum will be able to stay permanently ( depending on finances) in the near future. Big Thank you to everyone, you are all Brilliant!

My uncle is really impressed how clean the home is and how friendly the cleaning staff and the staff in general. Good for rooms as my uncles bottom drawer has been broken for a while (wardrobe big drawers at the bottom)

Overall Fairway is a very good facility for the care of the aged.
The staff are incredible and you get the sense they all care about the residents.
Carry on the great work.
Food and drink and activities got a good only because I haven't eaten there or been involved in any activities. But from what
I've seen I'm sure they are very good.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Impressive environment when we came for a visit. Warm, friendly, welcome. Has more of a hotel feel than a care home. Quiet and relaxed atmosphere with friendly and caring staff. A few teething problems initially, but management more responsive to my concerns, and left me feeling confident that they
would do all they could to resolve which on the whole they did. If people are fortunate enough to be able to afford Fairway View I would definitely recommend it.

My husband was in Fairway View care home for six months respite care. During that time he remained cheerful and clean. Enjoyed all food. Was able to stay in his own room if he wished with a newspaper and a television. Visitors welcomed and given refreshments. All staff friendly and respectful! I would
recommend and use again.

I settled in quickly and loved it straight away. Everyone was so friendly and made me feel at ease and being poorly it really made a difference. The food is so presentable and lovely to eat. Everyone I have met is kind and helpful in anything they do for you. I could not be in a better place. So think
you to Fairway View.

We cannot thank Fairway View enough for their outstanding care and support. The facilities are immaculate - everything is kept extremely clean and the rooms are comfortable and homely. The communal areas, including the living and dining spaces, cinema and garden are beautifully maintained and offer
a welcoming atmosphere. The staff are incredibly friendly, caring and professional, making the experience feel very person. The food and drink options are excellent with individual preferences catered for. There are plenty of activities to take part in, adding to the enjoyment of the stay. It is reassuring to know that the additional services, e.g hairdressing, chiropodist are readily available. Clothes are washed promptly and safety is a priority.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum took a turn for the worse and had to go into hospital for tests for a few days. The outcome we were told by the hospital doctor wasn't good and Mum would need end-of-life care. We asked if she could return to her care home. Which was no problem. Fairway View put everything in place, the care my
mum received as usual was wonderful, the staff are just amazing and looked after myself and brother as we visited every day. After a few weeks, Mum got stronger the staff were in contact with the district nursing team and the GP and kept us informed daily. Fast forward a few weeks Mum is up and about eating, drinking, toileting and sleeping although she is palliative she is stable. Mum is getting back to her old self, Mum has dementia and must have been so frightened but the staff are with her every step of the way their support encouragement and kindness are beyond words, a massive thank you to everyone at Fairway View.

The staff at Fairway View continues to provide excellent care for my dad as his health and mobility continue to decline, and his care requirements need to be adapted. Great communication and I am involved at every stage. Compassionate and professional and management who are approachable and accommodating.
Many thanks.

We visited a number of residential homes in the area before choosing Fairway View for our dad. We were very impressed by the facilities available. But in particular, the welcome and care shown to both Dad and the whole family by all the staff we met, both admin and care staff. It was apparent from the
outset that the residents are very well cared for, with individual needs and the desire to make them feel at home at the heart of what they do. Staff went out of their way to ensure Dad settled in well and the whole family feel assured that he was receiving the best of care.

Fairway View enabled me to have a break whilst knowing my husband was being cared for by a team of excellent and committed carers. Excellent assessment process prior to his stay. Visitors warmly greeted. Telephone contact during his stay was positively negotiated with a handset provided quickly for
him to take calls. Activities and resources stimulated him during his stay. He was treated with respect and dignity and I was reassured of his safety and care. This is all achieved in the context of him being reluctant for a short residential stay.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.861)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.861) out of 10 for Fairway View is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 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 4.861 for Fairway View is calculated as follows: ( (332 Excellents x 5) + (47 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 382 Ratings = 4.861
  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 Fairway View is based on 32 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 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 41 registered maximum number of service users is 8.2, which has been reached with 32 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.
