Castlecroft is a special place, where the team, residents and their loved ones work together to create a happy home that feels like an extended family.
There are resident ambassadors, who have active roles to play in how the home is run, from helping to interview potential staff, to providing residents’ feedback.
The team are passionate about enriching their residents’ lives, supporting them to do the things that bring them joy, giving them a sense of continuity and purpose. One resident is a fitness enthusiast, so the team created a gym for him, with his own equipment and some new additions.
Relatives are embraced into life at Castlecroft, and many are volunteering there. For example, several relatives created a vegetable patch with the residents, while others run singing sessions. There is also a private family and friends Facebook page.
Many residents love animals, so every week a member of the team brings in her family dog for them.
All the staff are actively involved in activities. Staff buddy residents who share the same interests, so activities are even more meaningful. For example, the maintenance operative discovered one of the residents shares his love of playing pool, so takes time to join him for games in home’s bar.
A group of male residents were chatting about how they loved cooking, so the ‘curry club’ was created. They go shopping with the team for the ingredients to make their own curries.
The home itself is beautiful, with spacious ensuite bedrooms, lounge areas and quiet spaces. There are landscaped gardens, where the residents enjoy growing their own produce, which they harvest for the chef to use in the kitchen. And mealtimes are a real highlight, with delicious home-cooked meals every day.

Daily housekeeping is relentless, but larger jobs by site team take a while. Some areas could do with a little TLC.
Activities are great, could do with more.

This home was recommended to me and as I work in the NHS and have helped run a nursing home, I knew what I was looking for. It hasn't disappointed.
Mostly the staff are very invested in their jobs and caring for the residents. They clearly care for them dearly and seems to take the time to get to know them well which is always comforting and reassuring.

Cannot speak highly enough of CastleCroft. I had Christmas lunch here with my brother. The management and carers are so professional and caring. My brother only eats soft food the kitchen accommodates him daily with fresh liquidated vegetables and meat/fish. He is so happy here I’m pleased to say. This makes me happy plus he is also involved with activities he’s part of the Games Club. The residents get daily photos and updates on daily activities on social media. Thank you CastleCroft

I was recommended by a friend when looking for a new place for my mom. Mom has been at Castlecroft Residential Care Home now since February. After a terrible experience at her previous placement, Mom has come on leaps and bounds. She was severely depressed and underweight when she arrived at Castlecroft but the staff have been nothing but caring, patient and understanding. The difference in my mom is huge, she is eating three meals a day, interacting with residents and taking part in activities. In particular, two members of staff have been amazing (there are many more). I couldn’t recommend Castlecroft enough!
The day we brought my nan to...
The day we brought my nan to the home we had all mixtures of emotions. But all of the anxiety and sadness soon went when we saw my nan just scoot off into the communal areas. It was as though she’d always been a part of that home.
As days passed we had updates from the staff and photos of my nan smiling and looking radiant. She was well, she was fed and altogether she was safe. Whenever we visit we feel it’s home from home. And my nan loves it there, she calls it her home which makes us feel at ease.
Thank you to all of the staff that have taken their time to get to know Nan and make her days better.
My mum has been there for just over one month on respite. We are hoping to make it permanent. The staff have been so accommodating and are always keeping us updated on Mum's progress. My mum has really settled in well and always looks happy. This makes us feel happier as a family as it's one of the...
I thank the staff for all their hard work!
My mom is very happy at Castlecroft Residential Care Home and the staff are brilliant and always keep me updated with everything. All the staff are very caring and are a credit to the manager who is a brilliant manager of the home and leads it with care and compassion.

The care and diligence afforded to my gran, who currently requires intensive nursing, is second-to-none. The staff are always helpful with inquiries and put one at ease. The WhatsApp group allows communication with staff and relations of other clients.
