My Uncle was taken in by West Cliff Hall shortly after his wife passed away in December 2024 as he was unable to care for himself due to his Parkinsons and Dementia. He was instantly made to feel welcome and looked after with the highest quality care. Since arriving the staff all engage with him and involve him in appropriate activities and he has become quite a well known character within the home. He speaks very highly of the staff, food and the facilities, loves his room and appears very settled. It is a great comfort to his family to know that he is being so well looked after by the West Cliff Team.

My mum has been in West Cliff for I think nearly 4 years, and I dont have any complaints at all, Repeka is always available for any concerns I might have, she is always helpful and always very nice. I also like Chelsey again never too busy to help if I need to talk about anything. In fact all the staff are nice. I think most of them like my mum. I hope so, and for me its just knowing she is warm, safe, getting fed, and her meds at right times cos then she dosent get any seizures anymore, which was aworry years ago. Her memory is going downhill now and she is up and down so she is in the best place now. Thank you.

My mum moved into the care January 2026 after her health declined a hospital admission and increased memory loss. I live in Spain and came to see her. I visited her for 5 of the 7 days in UK. I was very impressed with the care mum is receiving. The staff are lovely and treat mum kindly and with respect. She has told my brother she feels safe there which puts my mind at rest. I just wanted to say thank you to all who look after my mum. I will be back in UK the end of April and look forward to seeing my mum again.
Thank you very much for your kind feedback. We're so pleased to hear that your mum is settling in well following her hospital stay. Moving into a new home can be a big transition, so it's especially reassuring to know she feels safe and supported with us.

My dad had a fall in August, following which he was unsafe to return home and live independently, we hummed and aahed several times, visited at odd moments and never felt under pressure. Dad's room is bright and airy with lovely views over to Southampton docks, there's always something for him to watch.
Food is great, the activities on offer are varied, though to be fair dad's not tried many, but he gets encouraged to try. The home provides lots of regular information and it's comforting to see a slimmed down version of the care notes online, which gives us reassurance of how he is.
GP and other care service staff visit regularly, hair, nails, OT, eyes, hearing very comprehensive.
Dad's very happy and content there. Thank you.
