I have just come away from spending the weekend at Fonthill House with my grandfather. I live quite far away from him and it is so comforting to know he is in such good hands. I stayed a few minutes drive away from the home but was able to arrange and enjoy lunch and dinner at the home with my grandfather on both days of my visit.
The staff could not do enough to help with any requests I had.
The home itself is of a very high standard and is extremely well maintained, I would not hesitate to recommend this place to anyone.

Overall Experience
My Gran moved from another care home as we felt there wasn't much in the way of activities, it was a hard decision to make the change and move out, but we haven't regretted at all. Thank you all at Fonthill, lots of love to everyone.

Overall Experience
My Mother has been a resident for over two years at Fonthill, I have been impressed with the consistent level of quality care. We often visit and regularly, eat lunch or supper, the food is excellent and the home doesn't charge us for it.

Overall Experience
My friend has struggled at home for over a year having had a number of falls. I have seen a huge transformation in her confidence and well being since moving to Fonthill House, I would wholeheartedly recommend this home.

Overall Experience
A clean, tidy, odour free home. Fonthill House has a fantastic reputation locally. The activities are extensive including trips out to Fortnum & Mason and tea at The Ritz. A leading light for how care should be provided for the elderly.

Overall Experience
I don't normally write reviews but I felt that Fonthill House deserved a recommendation after the time and effort the nurses/care staff put into ensuring my grandmother was cared for. I am immensely grateful to the whole team.
