Review from Elizabeth C (Sister of Resident) published on 23 April 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am very pleased with the care my brother is receiving at Acacia Care Centre. He has been there almost a year and his health has improved significantly from when he arrived. He was really quite ill after a spell in hospital and was off his food, and now he has a healthy appetite and looks so much better
and brighter. The carers get him out of bed every day and put him in a mobile armchair, which enables him to take part in some of the many activities that the home puts on and eat with the other residents in the dining room, and even go in the garden, so he is not alone in his room all day as was the case in his previous accommodation. The staff are very caring and professional, the carers and activity coordinators are upbeat and put a smile on his face, and the medical staff check on his health regularly and let me know immediately if there are any concerns. It is so reassuring to know he is being well looked after and he is happy in his new home.

My Father in Law moved into a beautiful room in early December, staff are pure excellence, friendly and very professional, so reassuring to know he is safe and happy, plenty of activities available daily, he is looking so much healthier since being here, all down to the fresh food available daily. Huge

Hi there, to all views of acacia care home, I am the son of Josefina and I would just like to say since my mother has been at this care home. She has responded very very well before she went into the care home. She was not responding to anyone talking or engaging with everyone, but since she has been
there, she has been talking. She has a smile on her face. She's very relaxed and as far as I'm concerned, she's looking much more better and more. Healthier and now she's engaging in activities and exercise which is much better for her health and well-being. She seems to enjoy everything there and the staff are very friendly with her and make her feel comfortable and being more like at home. I rate this a five star rating and review for this care home. It seems to me that the staff care for their patients there and I'm very friendly with them and every time I go to see my mother they welcome me. So yes this is A very calming and welcoming care home. I'll leave a five star rating
Reply from Stuart Lamacraft, on behalf of the team at Acacia Care CentreThank you so much for your heartfelt review and for sharing your mother's wonderful progress since joining Acacia Care Centre. It's truly uplifting to hear how much happier, more relaxed and engaged she has become - a reflection of the warm, person-centred care our team strives to provide every day. We're delighted that you feel welcomed and supported during your visits, and we'll be sure to share your kind words with the whole team.

Very excellent care in every way - thank you.
All staff are very professional - efficient but friendly, kind, thoughtful & caring.
Modern building - very spacious, light, bright & airy with lovely gardens & facilities.
Easy access for visitors & pleasant atmosphere - more like an hotel.
Great
improvement in cousin's quality of life since arrival in February: after months of being bed-bound & in hospital. He is now washed & dressed smartly every day & wheeled around in huge, comfortable mobile armchair for meals in dining rooms (tables laid out as in an hotel), separate activity rooms, opportunities for socialising & variety.
24-hour nursing on hand, manager, deputies, administrators, carers, laundry, cleaners & home-cooked food from on-site kitchens & chefs. Menus changing daily. Hairdresser/barber on premises.
Very comfortable, safe & secure, with any best & up-to-date specialist safety equipment provided.
Cousin very happy!

Since my mother became a resident the standard of care has been exceptional.
The carers take time with her, she is always in the activity lounge and although she does interact with other residents she is happy and content to be with others.
Her room is large and airy with plenty of chairs for visitors.
The
lounge is large and the restaurant is comfortable. There is plenty of space for chairs in communal areas.
All the staff are friendly.

My mother has vastly improved, from staying at Acaia.
Mum had been quite down when she entered the home.
I am so pleased my mother has finally been able to go out.
Mum has been taken out into the garden, which she really enjoys.

Placing our dear Mum in nursing care was the hardest decision. We must have viewed over 50 places searching for 'the one'. The Acacia provided complete reassurance that our decision was the right one. Perhaps all too common a story, Mum arrived from a long stay in hospital in a parlous state with a
palliative diagnosis and stroke-induced cognitive impairment. Within weeks of being in their warm and supportive environment (& delicious home-cooked food!) she was well enough to go out on a day trip which she hadn't done in years. It wasn't all plain sailing of course; having lived independently for 90 years, it wasn't going to be. The empathy and skill with which the manager and staff handled her complex emotional and physical challenges through to the end is a testament to their exceptional person-centred care. She absolutely loved engaging with the staff and it was a great comfort to us that Mum was valued and understood for the person she was. We remain ever thankful to everyone at Acacia.
Reply from Stuart Lamacraft, Marketing Assistant at Acacia Care CentreThank you for sharing such a heartfelt review. We understand how difficult the decision to move a loved one into care can be and we're truly honoured to have provided the reassurance your family needed. It's wonderful to hear how your mum thrived with us, from enjoying home-cooked meals to going on a day trip after such a challenging time. Your kind words about our team's empathy and dedication mean so much. Knowing she was valued and understood as the unique person she was is the greatest compliment we could receive. It was a privilege to care for your mum. Thank you for trusting us.

Can't believe I've found the perfect home for my dear friend.
The manager and staff are just so friendly and accommodating. I can approach any member of staff. From the manager, assistant manager, receptionists, nurses, activity ladies, handyman, cleaners, laundry staff and catering staff, they all
seem happy. Always greet me with a warm smile.
I am generally perceptive of people so I know what I see.
My friend likes taking part in the activities. I have visited her and joined in the bingo and art classes. I take her to sit in the lovely garden which she enjoys.
The chickens are a favourite. She mimics the cockerel.
Animals are allowed to visit as well. I have taken my Cockapoo, Bradley, who she loves, to see her. A big thank you to the manager and her amazing team for making Acacia Care the wonderful caring Home that it is.
The biggest compliment I can give is to the manager. This is the sort of home I would want for myself if ever I had to go into care.
Reply from Stuart Lamacraft, Marketing Assistant at Acacia Care CentreThank you so much for your heartfelt review and for sharing your wonderful experience at Acacia Care Centre.

Acacia has a pleasant ambience. It is always kept very clean. The staff are all friendly, helpful, genuinely caring and patient. It feels calm and well-organised. Medical needs are attended to as you'd expect by a diligent nursing team along with regular visits from a local GP. Activities organised
by the excellent lifestyle team help residents to feel part of a community.
My father transferred from a hospital stay. His care needs changed as his health recovered. The care he received was adapted to his changing needs and I'm sure this will continue if his capabilities diminish in future. The manager and other staff are excellent, always willing to listen to any concerns and make changes if needed.
Overall, I see residents being treated with dignity, and with care tailored to their individual needs. Staff do their best to facilitate worthwhile a quality of life. I am always welcomed warmly when I'm able to visit and feel confident that Dad is well cared for at other times.
Reply from Monika Jankauskaite, Digital Marketing Manager at Acacia Care CentreThank you for your detailed and kind feedback. We're pleased to hear that Acacia Care's clean, calm, and well-organised environment, along with our friendly and attentive staff, has positively impacted your father's care.

Review from Linda H (Wife of Resident) published on 28 June 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband has been a resident in Acacia since January 2024. He arrived at the home significantly malnourished and in very poor health. He has made good progress as far as his disease permits.
Since becoming a resident he has gained weight, the accommodation facilitates his needs to be independent.
He also benefits from the routine the nursing home provides, regarding mealtimes, snacks and his medication. Acacia is run under the management where staff are caring and fully accessible both to residents and family.


The entertainment provided is for all the residents regardless of their disability. Entertainment is sometimes provided by outside providers as well as in-house. On one of my visits last week, I walked into my husband's room and there was a Shetland pony! He was so overwhelmed emotionally.
There are regular meetings held for relatives with visiting speakers. I feel a great sense of relief knowing he is cared for 24 hours a day which I was unable to provide myself.

Reply from Monika Jankauskaite, Digital Marketing Manager at Acacia Care CentreThank you for taking the time to share your experience at Acacia Care Centre.

My mother has been in this dementia care nursing home since last year, the family and I are so grateful to the nursing staff for their care and support for all of her nursing care needs. The home has a friendly family atmosphere, nothing is ignored if we have any concerns, the health care assistants

We feel lucky that our mother is in a home-from-home environment.
The home is managed well and the quality improvement of "you say, I do" really works.
Thank you Acacia Nursing Home.

I have been a resident at Acacia Care Centre for 5 years. The home is ok. Activities are good, the trips are good and there is a variety of trips. Staff are good, some are exceptional and these I feel comfortable with.
The manager and duty manager are good at their job, the receptionist is good at
her job.
Maintenance is excellent and always does any jobs I require immediately or as soon as he can.
I get on with the weekend receptionists as well and all the reception staff are helpful
The regular nurse on my unit does her job right and always makes sure things are done
I am unable to eat or drink so am not commenting on food.

A huge thank you to all the staff, for the care and support you have given my dad. Dad arrived just before Christmas 2023. Within a few days, Dad had fitted in well, and loves being there.
Dad loves playing dominoes, most afternoons Dad walks to the lounge and plays dominoes with his friends, and
joins in on some of the daily activities, he eats well, the food is really good, he has a lovely room, which is lovely and clean.
We celebrated his 92 birthday this week, with family, which was lovely!
Once again thank you, you are amazing!
From a very happy daughter.

My mum went into the care of the wonderful team at Acacia in December 2023. When I went for a show around I was greeted by 1 of the weekend receptionists who was clearly proud to show us the facilities. I immediately felt at ease and I knew that Mum would be happy there.
On Mum's first day, she took
part in the activities and continued to do so at every opportunity. She particularly enjoyed the day trips to the museums and places of interest as well as the extensive weekly activity programme, which is shared with relatives. The menus are changed regularly and there is an extensive choice which caters for all dietary requirements.
The Manageress and all her staff are beyond superb. I think she has personally handpicked them all as they are so kind, patient and genuinely care for all the residents. Mum needed specialist nursing care and what she received was exemplary, right up until the very end and then she was treated with the utmost respect and dignity. Excellent and I highly recommend it.

My mum has been in Acacia Care Centre, this will be her 4th year. She had her struggles in the beginning but once she had settled she loved it. I love it because we as a family always get a warm welcome from the receptionist to carers, nurses to cleaners, even the tea lady, all the staff are amazing.
My mum loves the visits from the animals and bingo. The food is great. She gets a birthday cake from them every year which is lovely but we still bring her one too, she always says she's going to share it. It's very reassuring when we leave her that she's taken care of and happy. If I have any complaints it's that my mum has a better social life than me.

My Dad has been in Acacia Care home since December 2023, I was very worried at the beginning as it was the first time that my Dad would be placed within a residential setting. However, I was greeted with the greatest smile from the receptionist, she was so warm and friendly, as she showed me around

My dad's stay has been second to none, they are providing excellent care, and he is extremely happy as they cater for his every need.

My mother gradually became happier as she stayed on at Acacia. The cleanliness is excellent there, her privacy respected with good security plus a lot of patience. We feel at ease with the staff and my experience is that they know me by name there. There is a tea/coffee area or even a library (or bar!)
if you want a break whilst visiting. My mother has been at Acacia about five years and, although she is challenging at times (with dementia), I have never heard a deprecating remark about her. She is less frightened and generally watches her favourite TV programmes whilst watching over her dolls. Her hair is carefully trimmed.

Review from S A (Daughter of Resident) published on 23 January 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum has been at Acacia Care Centre for a whole year this month. The time has really gone quickly! She was admitted to the centre straight from the hospital and not in the best condition. She was thin, hardly eating/drinking and had a major pressure sore on her left heel. It was black! Now she has reached
her optimal condition, she has gained weight and is eating/drinking satisfactorily. The pressure sore is completely healed and she's alert and smiley and back to her old self. Due to her dementia, she does need total hands-on care which is delivered at a high standard.

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 4.916 for Acacia Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (155 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 166 Ratings = 4.916
  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 4.85 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Acacia Care Centre is based on 14 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 = 3.85
    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 62 registered maximum number of service users is 12.4, which has been reached with 14 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.
