The modern and purpose-built home plus the inclusive offer means that life at Ash Tree House is relaxed, safe and enjoyable. All 60 bedrooms are en-suite wet rooms, enabling the team to deliver person-centred care in a dignified manner, promoting independence as far as possible. Your stylish room comes equipped with a flat screen TV, DVD player, mini fridge and wifi so when you aren’t joining in with an activity in one of the beautiful day spaces, you can enjoy spending time in your room and keep in contact with friends and family whenever you wish.

Ash Tree House is proud to have achieved ‘Outstanding’ in the area of ‘Responsive’ in their latest Care Quality Commission report and to be rated as ‘Good’ overall – May 2019.

The team understand that moving into a care home is a big step, which is why they have introduced 'supported admissions' for new residents. This is where a friend or family member can stay at the home during moving in day to help their loved one settle. They can even enjoy their first meal together.

You will understandably have lots of questions and concerns throughout these unprecedented times. Speaking to a member of the friendly team may help to give you peace of mind - they are here to help and support you every step of the way.

Review from Patricia W (Daughter of Resident) published on 26 January 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum came into Ash Tree House December 2013 for 2 weeks but was made permanent in January 2014. The care team are very good and also the management. The room and the food are excellent the overall standard is excellent. Since moving in she has been well looked after, my mum has anxiety problems but
the staff have been very good with her. The cleanliness of Ash Tree House is excellent. I am so pleased my mum is in Ash Tree House she is well looked after and I have no worries of her wellbeing and also the safety or security of the home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father came to Ashtree in October 2015. I have one word to sum up our experience so far "Excellent", from the friendly greeting from the receptionist, the amazing help from the manager and the assistant manager to all the care staff, cleaners, laundry staff and kitchen staff. Everyone is amazing.
The facilities and activities are fantastic. Ashtree feels like a real home from home. After two weeks dad started referring to it as home. Ashtree has made the transition of dad moving into a care home easier than I could have expected. A massive thank you to everyone who works there.

I cannot speak highly enough of the staff at Ash Tree House. My mum is so well cared for and so settled. It’s never easy seeing your parent go into a care home but Ash Tree House made the whole thing so much better than it was. The staff are wonderful. Really pleased we were able to get mum a place
here.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.555)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.555) out of 10 for Ash Tree House 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 11 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 4.863 for Ash Tree House is calculated as follows: ( (116 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 131 Ratings = 4.863
  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 4.692 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ash Tree House is based on 11 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 = 3.775
    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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 12 = 0.917
  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.
