From our very first visit we were impressed by the facilities (it genuinely feels more like walking into a hotel than a care home), but it is the people who make Almond Valley so special. From management and nurses to carers, activity staff and everyone behind the scenes, the kindness, patience and compassion shown to Mum has been wonderful.
The whole family has been made to feel welcome. We are encouraged to continue spending time with Mum, both as a family and, importantly, for Mum and Dad to still have time together as a couple. The care, attention to detail and effort that goes into activities and special events is outstanding, with these being tailored to individual interests and abilities. We are so grateful to the whole team at Almond Valley for giving us the reassurance that Mum is safe, happy and genuinely valued and cared for as an individual.
Thank you so much for your kind and heartfelt words. We are delighted to hear that your mum and family feel so welcomed, supported and reassured at Almond Valley. It means a great deal to the whole team to know that the care, compassion and attention we give are making such a positive difference. We will be sure to share your lovely feedback with everyone involved.

My mum has been in Almond Valley Care Home since her massive stroke last year. Her whole world changed overnight - and so did ours. Almond Valley has been a lifeline for all of us. The home itself is beautiful; it truly feels like luxury living. But what makes it exceptional is the team. They don't just look after the resident - they are fully mindful of the fact that the family has been through a very difficult and emotional journey too. They look after us as much as they look after her. There is a large team who genuinely care. They know my mum, they understand her needs, and they treat her with dignity, patience, and kindness every single day. Their compassion has brought comfort to our family at a time when we needed it most. Almond Valley is a fantastic home, but it's the people who make it phenomenal.
Thank you so much for your beautiful words. Were truly honoured to care for your mum and to support your family through such a difficult journey. Your kindness means a great deal to our whole team, and well be sure to share your lovely feedback with everyone at Almond Valley.

There's always an element of fear and uncertainty when you put your loved one into a care home but I can honestly say that Almond Valley is the best. Mum has settled into a beautiful, clean and well organised home with great people looking after her.

From the moment we walked through the door on our initial tour visit we were impressed with the facilities but more importantly the kindness and compassion of all staff. Mum moved into the home 6 months ago and has received the individual care and attention required to meet both her personal and medical needs. As a family, we have been fully supported by all at Almond Valley Care Home through this time of change.

I visited my friend at Almond Valley Care Home today. I was also having a meeting to go over my friend's 4 week review. My husband and I took her along to the café for coffee and cake and while we were there a member of staff advised that there was going to be musical bingo starting in 10 minutes and invited us to stay and take part. We did and had a great time. We also got to meet another resident who sat with us. Everyone joined in and thoroughly enjoyed listening to theme tunes from television programmes. It was also lovely to see our friend enjoying herself. Afterwards there was tea and lovely homemade cake for everyone who wanted it. An enjoyable and memorable afternoon.

My husband has now been living in Almond Valley for a year and he has settled in so well. All the staff are so friendly and helpful. They always use his name and have a real understanding of who he is which is so important to me. I love the idea of the mens club and as his dementia progresses they are always ready with solutions to deal with the problems. As the home is reaching capacity I do feel the areas where they socialise are too small but I believe they are addressing this situation.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are delighted to hear that your husband has settled so well at Almond Valley and that you feel our staff know and understand him as an individual.

Agonising and handing over the devoted care of my Mum was the hardest decision iv ever made. However, after only 8 short weeks iv watched Mum thrive, flouish, make lovely new friends and generally be happier and healthier. Never did l expect every single member of staff to b so dedicated, warm, caring, respectful and welcoming. Nothing is a bother. Also outstanding is the activities team. What they do on a day to day basis for the residents is amazing. Thank u also for making my life better too. Visiting Mum is a pleasure now!!!
