My mother, who has dementia, has been staying at Hurstwood for over four years. She has a spacious, comfortable, on-suite room overlooking countryside. The home is decorated to a high standard and residents use various lounges and a cafe where a range of activities are provided. The garden areas are well-maintained and there are pleasant, outdoor seating areas. I am always made to feel welcome when I visit my mother and all the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Their kindness and awareness of my mother's needs is greatly appreciated.

My father has been a resident since June 2017 on Memory Lane. Nothing is ever to much trouble. The care for my father has been superb and even with The Pandemic the staff have gone beyond the call of duty adapting to new working regimes ensuring the residents were well. Ever since 2017 I have nothing but praise for Hurstwood View and would recommend it to anyone. Brilliant staff working together as a team. I feel Hurstwood View is part of my extended family. Thank you to all the staff for all your continuing hard work.

It was excellent caring service throughout her short stay. All staff were attentive at all times and made us as visitors feel welcome in their environment. I would recommend this home for anyone to use.

My husband (separated) was in Hurstwood View for one week's respite in June. He was well looked after, and he enjoyed his time. Last year he had been discharged from the hospital to Hurstwood, so the staff knew him, and he was familiar with everything. My partner and I, who look after him in our home, normally were able to enjoy our week's respite too, knowing he was safe and among friends again.
We look forward to seeing you again in the future.

My mother transferred from another care home in September 2021, and the move has been transformational for her. She was very low when we moved here, and the professional, kind and friendly team at Hurstwood View have worked hard to bring some sunshine back into mum's life. I truly believe that she now has some quality of life, and for me, that is everything. The management team at Hurstwood View is exceptional, and they make every effort to ensure that all of their service users enjoy their last days, even in these difficult times of CV-19. I cannot thank the team enough for all their hard work and kindness. They definitely go the extra mile!

The staff are extremely caring and friendly and he is fond of them and grateful for all they do for him. I receive regular updates about his medication and any adjustments and reasons for them by the Clinical Leader.
Very much appreciated and keeps me in the picture without having to ask.
Generally, the care is exceptional and I am glad that my husband has found the perfect residential Home for his particular needs.

Everything about our experience with Hurstwood View has been extremely positive, right from our first informal visit to see if it was the right place for Mum. My mother has Alzheimer's but can function fairly independently and loves to socialise. The whole approach to my Mum is to treat her as an...
Every time I speak to her or visit her she is so excited to tell me what she has been up to, how nice it is there and how happy she is. This has also been a difficult time for us as a family as it's been a huge decision to make and the staff have all made this so easy and stress-free for us.

My elderly mother urgently needed a nursing home. I had visited several, but none was absolutely right. Hurstwood View was recommended. I had finally found the perfect home for her! The manager is delightful, involved, and from a nursing background. The cheerful atmosphere and close relationship between staff and management is immediately apparent. I understand staff turnover is low, a positive. The staff are happy, kind, respectful, and seek to converse with residents as individuals with a unique history. The nursing staff informs me of any issue. Measures are in place up to help my mother with her particular circumstances. Nothing ever seems too much trouble. The purpose-built building boasts lovely ensuite bedrooms, all with patio doors opening onto a courtyard or garden. The chef’s meals look nourishing and delicious. The lively activities team provides a busy programme. As a new visiting relative, I felt immediately embraced by the Hurstwood View community, and have nothing but praise for it.

My dad stayed for respite care following a few falls. The care dad received was amazing, we have had nothing but praise for the way he was treated and looked after. The home is modern, beautifully clean and kept in tip-top condition. The food options are great, dad raved about his meals during his stay! Dad says nothing was too much trouble - all the staff were truly amazing! As the weather wasn’t suitable for dad to enjoy the beautiful grounds outside and he didn’t want to join in activities indoors, the staff grouped him with a few other men so they could have chats which dad thoroughly enjoyed. The atmosphere in this home is very friendly, supportive and caring.

Hurstwood View came to our rescue when our father was in the final stages of dementia and we could no longer keep him at home with carers. They took him at very short notice and throughout the very short time, he was at Hurstwood View the care was exemplary. One of the staff was with him twenty-four hours a day, we had regular and frequent updates. The staff were gentle and caring in the way they handled him in his final days and treated him as though they had known him all his life. The staff also treated us with great understanding and sympathy and were prepared to go to any lengths in order to make our situation as easy as was possible during Covid. We could not fault their care and they made a world of difference to us at a very difficult time in our lives. We felt very lucky to have been able to send our father into their care for his final days.
Thank you for your kind review, Pippa; it was an honour and our pleasure to have cared for your father during such a difficult time.
Given that Covid has changed everything my experience has been all that I could have hoped for, except the accounting. Random amounts have been taken from my account with no explanation. I have asked for a monthly statement.

I appreciate the accessibility of speaking to the staff who always have time to speak however busy they are. I have found the general atmosphere at Hurstwood View to be a positive, friendly and welcoming home where nothing seems too much trouble.

My mother and her partner moved into the flats which are connected to Hurstwood, they were happy to have the back up of the care home and also have care in their own home. This worked really well and they quickly got to know the staff and felt very happy with their decision to move to Hurstwood. Unfortunately, my mother's partner had a bad fall. The hospital would not let him be discharged back to the flat as he needed more care so he went into the nursing home. He was cared for very well by the staff. They were really good with him as his dementia had accelerated. The good thing was that Mother could visit him. He was treated with respect and dignity until the end. Unfortunately, my mother was diagnosed with cancer. She carried on living in the flat with the knowledge that if she needed anyone they were on hand. She really loved all the staff and built up a friendship with them. She said she couldn’t have wanted to be in a better place. Her last days were spent in the home and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

Hurstwood View is a caring, supportive and wonderful place to be. My relative has had respite care there a few times now, and every time he has been there, we have had nothing but praise for the way he has been treated and looked after. He himself says he feels like royalty when he goes there and nothing is too much trouble - if you ask for anything, he gets it immediately. We, as a family, cannot thank them enough for their compassion. He’s even looking at going again before Christmas. That says it all really.

My mother has spent eight weeks at Hurstwood View, having been transferred from Pembury hospital after a fall and a series of absent seizures. She suffers with vascular dementia. We have been delighted with the care given to Mum which has been first class from day 1. She has been made to feel very much at home and has fitted in very well with all of the staff. Although visiting has been very limited due to the pandemic, she has been kept active and has even developed a couple of interests we didn't realise she had. Her general disposition and health has also improved and it's nice to see her smiling so much. Her birthday 'party' was made extra special when the staff brought her favourite coconut cake in and sang happy birthday to her together. Well done and thank you.

When a care assistant came to the door we were asked to wash our hands, which we did, but did not issue us with a face mask even though the care assistant was wearing one herself.
At this time my mother was very upset due to the unfamiliar surroundings. On entering the building there was a patient trying to sell daily papers to us which was even more confusing for my mother, there were also used plates and bowls left on the tables in the reception area.
The toilet in my mother's room had been used, urine on the floor, dirty toilet paper in the bin, no plug in the sink. The toilet seat is cracked (Health & Safety issues) (photos taken)
There were other issues that gravely concerned us and we brought our mother home.

My mother has been at Hurstwood for two years having left a large house and garden where she lived alone. At all times, the staff have treated her with dignity and respect - with humour thrown in for good measure! The home is spacious and always clean. The meals are excellent. The leadership comes from a place of love and genuine care. To be honest, I thought it would have been impossible to find somewhere suitable for my mother, but we are so very grateful for the immeasurable love found in this place. Every resident's needs are different, but our experience has been very good. Like any community, the experience is better if you have like-minded people around you with whom you can do activities. This comes down to luck. Do take a look!

Hi, my name is Esther, and I am the General Manager here at Hurstwood View.
Caring for others has always been at the heart of who I am. It inspired me to pursue a career in nursing over a decade ago, and my journey has taken me through India, Nigeria, and now England, where Uckfield has become home.
I joined Hurstwood View as Deputy Manager and am honoured to now serve as General Manager. It is a privilege to lead such a dedicated team, providing compassionate, person-centred care in a warm and welcoming environment where residents and their families feel like part of our extended family.
My door is always open, and you will always be greeted with a smile. Whether you are considering care for a loved one or simply want to learn more about us, we would be delighted to welcome you for a cup of tea/coffee and a slice of our homemade cake

Hi, my name is Mel, and I’m the Deputy Manager here at Hurstwood View.
I have always had a passion for caring for others, which led me to pursue a career in nursing.
I have gained experience across a variety of healthcare settings, including acute hospital care, Respiratory nursing and nursing home management.
Each experience has helped me shape the nurse I am today, and I’m passionate about making a difference to the lives of the people in our care.
I believe that great care is not only about meeting people’s needs, but it’s about sharing a smile and creating a warm, happy environment where residents feel safe, valued and truly at home.

Hi, my name is Cathryn, and I joined the team at Hurstwood View in August 2017 as the Administrator.
I have worked in care home administration since 2002 and have since gained an NVQ Level 3 in Business Administration.
My role includes managing the financial systems in the home, HR, enquiry management and working closely with the General Manager. My favourite part of the role is interacting with residents and their families.

Hello everyone, I am Madhvi Bucktowar, and I joined Barchester in January 2026. I currently work as a Staff nurse at Hurstwood View Care Home. I was born in Mauritius and came to the UK in 2001. I started my career in healthcare as a Care assistant in a residential home. I started working towards my Nursing Qualification in 2005. I studied at the University of Surrey for 3 years and was qualified as a Registered Mental Health Nurse by the end of 2008. Since being qualified, I have worked in different Care Homes looking after elderly people with nursing needs, Learning Disability and people with Dementia. I love my job, and personally I don’t think any other job would have given me such a great sense of satisfaction by providing care and support to the people who really need it.
In my spare time, I do a little bit of gardening, grow vegetables, and I like cooking/baking or simply watching horror movies. I have a great team to work with and hope that I will be part of the Barchester family for a long time.

Hello, my name is Ellie, and I am proud to be a Care Practitioner at Hurstwood View.
I joined the setting in January 2024 as a Care Assistant from a background of supporting adults with learning disabilities. I quickly progressed with the support of the home to Senior Care Assistant. Whilst my role was fulfilling, I have a love for learning and progression which has been recognised and supported by the leadership of the home. I now proudly hold the position of Care Practitioner.
I feel I am a valued member of the team, work closely with my colleagues and have recently been appointed as Speak Up Champion and Dementia Champion; this opportunity will enable me, moving forward, to deepen my knowledge and offer outstanding care to the residents.
I am diligent and rigorous in the care that I give our residents and believe that through my practice they are treated with dignity and respect at all times. I maintain positive and respectful relationships with families and other healthcare professionals and deem this as fundamental in the experiences that residents receive at Barchester.
Outside of my working role, I thoroughly enjoy spending time at the farm with my partner, camping, country music, walking my dog and spending time with our families!

Hi, my name is Zoe, and I have worked at Hurstwood View since 2013.
I started my career in the kitchen department, then changed into a care assistant role. I have gradually worked my way up, and I am now a Care Practitioner at Hurstwood View Care Home. I love working on Memory Lane and supporting our residents who are living with dementia. In my role, I take responsibility for ensuring that all our residents' needs are met in the most suitable way for them. We take pride in person-centred care, and we value each resident's differences. I always ensure that the staff working within the Memory Lane community are up to date with any recent changes, and I also ensure that relatives are kept up to date with their loved ones' ever-changing needs.
At Hurstwood View, we have a great team ethic, and the staff feel more like a big family rather than colleagues.

I completed my Level 3 diploma in Adult Care in 2025.
I was recently promoted to a senior care assistant, supporting the memory lane unit. I am committed to providing the highest standard of care and support to our residents.
I am also a Dementia Champion; in this role, I enjoy having conversations with the residents and getting to know them better. The environment is friendly, and seeing the residents thrive makes me feel accomplished that I am contributing to their ever-blossoming lives.
In my spare time, I enjoy arts and crafts and spending quality time with my daughter. I am a good cook; you can even ask my colleagues
