Dad has been a resident for more than 6 years now and has never been happier. The staff are always so friendly, welcoming and supportive.

Dad has been a resident for more than 6 years now and has never been happier. The staff are always so friendly, welcoming and supportive. I can't thank them enough for all the hard work and effort that they put in. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and they will always try to go above and beyond. It would be very hard to pick out a particular moment or person to praise, as they are all so good. I am, however, very grateful for the opportunity being given to my dad to attend his grandson's wedding, which he is thrilled about.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience. It means a great deal to us to know that your dad has been so happy with us over the past six years. We are proud to have such a dedicated team who genuinely cares about our residents and their families, and...

The advice and support I have had from the staff at Ambleside has been amazing. They made the transition for my mum to becoming a resident much easier. I have lots of useful advice and regular updates as to how my mum is getting on with either chats or updates on the app.

Mum has been in Ambleside for 6weeks now, has really settled in well. I am so pleased to see a real change in her, she has had a very difficult year especially the last 6months.

Ambleside have been brilliant at looking after my father, who has advanced dementia and Alzheimer's. Their staff are so kind and caring and treat him with dignity and understanding, which I am so grateful for. Due to unexpected circumstances, my Dad had to go into a care home very suddenly. The staff were incredible at smoothing this huge transition for him and speeding up the process rapidly for us. He now enjoys lots of activities and still gets to see his favourite dog whenever he visits the home. Would 100% recommend this place to anyone looking for a place for a loved one.
Thank you for your kind words, Dad has settled into Ambleside life very well and its not just him who enjoys to see his favorite dog we all love the visits too. We are so glad that you are happy with everything welcome to you all. See you very soon
His condition now needs professional people to look after him and give him a decent senior stage of life. The home, staff and services are all excellent.

My Sister came to Ambleside in May, having been transferred from another home. I cannot speak more highly of the care and attention she has received, having been diagnosed with dementia. The management is first class, as are the wonderful carers. All residents are treated with dignity and respect. The quality of the home is nothing short of superb, just like visiting a five star hotel. It is wonderful to see my Sister so relaxed and happy. God bless you all
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review and for your kind words.

Our mum has been suffering with Alzheimer's for some time and it became impossible to give her a decent quality of life and look after her safely at her home. We visited Ambleside on a number of occasions prior to mum's admission and she decided it was the right place to be for her. Mum has settled in well and we visit Ambleside most days. We find the staff to be very helpful and professional. The atmosphere is relaxed and everything is clean and tidy. Mum has as much freedom as she needs and is able to join in with as many activities as she wishes. It is and feels like a supportive community in a great setting. Thankyou
Thank you very much for taking the time to leave a review. Your mum has settled really well and is already joining in most of the activities, it is always a pleasure to hear her play the piano and see her sat in the sunshine. Welcome to our Ambleside Family

My mother recently moved into Ambleside and we have been very impressed with the whole set up. The staff are friendly and very experienced, working hard to settle mum in. The activities are excellent and mum likes the food. The setting is beautiful and her room is very clean and attractive. During a recent illness, staff kept us informed of decisions about her care and coaxed her back onto her feet with patience and determination.
Thank you very much for taking time to leave this review. We are very lucky indeed to be situated in the beautiful countryside. We are so pleased that your mum has settled and has very much become part of our Ambleside family.
