I would recommend Barley Manor, as it is a friendly and lively place to live. I came for a respite stay and loved it, so I decided to make it my permanent home. My family are close by, and it is a great joy for them to feel so welcomed by the staff when they come in to see me.

My husband spent three comfortable and safe weeks having respite care at Barley Manor in late September and through October, and we both send huge thanks to all the staff for their care and attention. It is always difficult choosing a Care Home, and our choice was guided by location, and by personal
visits. Barley Manor has only been open for one year and so there were only a few reviews or personal recommendations. The Care Home is beautifully appointed and from the moment of entering, there is a huge welcome. The decor is lovely, the staff so friendly and caring and the food is quite excellent. . The cafe on the ground floor is a hub for everyone to gather and socialise - and enjoy too many delicious freshly baked cakes and pastries! Visitors likened it to a 5* hotel.
I had the reassurance that my husband was being very professionally and well looked after while I was away.
We would recommend Barley Manor to all and everyone without hesitation, and wish it a continued success.
Reply from Narcis Militaru, Home Manager at Barley Manor Care HomeThank you so much for your kind words. We are thrilled to hear that your husband enjoyed his stay with us and I look forward to passing on your feedback to our team.

My Dad moved into Barley Manor three weeks ago and has settled well. The care home has a warm, friendly atmosphere and my Dad and us, as a family, have been made to feel welcome.
The admission process was informative, clear and above all empathetic and thoughtful. The client services manager listened
to my Dad's needs and then sensitively helped choose a suitable room for him. This person thought about Dad as an individual, not just someone to fill a room, she showed compassion and attention to detail.
The staff want my Dad to be happy, which is exemplified by the activity ladies who make a point of checking in with Dad and to our delight have got him attending events they put on, eg quiz. They listen to Dad, tune into his conversations and try to accommodate his interests.
The care team seems patient, calm, and responsive. Dad has had a few moments when he has felt anxious, but this is always quickly rectified, which is reassuring.
I would recommend Barley Manor wholeheartedly
Reply from Cristian Grozav, Home Manager at Barley Manor Care HomeThank you for providing such a shining review of our home. I will be sure to share your feedback with our team, who will be thrilled to hear they have had such a positive impact on you and your dad's life.

are generally pleasant & relaxed. A good programme of entertainment & exercise is rn on a daily basis & there are trips out to e.g a National Trust. In summation a beautiful well run care home

Barley Manor is an excellent nursing home. From the emergency reception in January of my cousin with dementia to the present day the care, understanding and sympathy of all the staff has been exceptional. The design and furnishing of the whole home and gardens is aimed at comfort and stimulation. The
activities provided for residents presses the right buttons of memories and involvement. The integration of local surgery and nursing home care is exemplary. My cousin has found the comfort and care she needs. Well done, Barley Manor.

I had been struggling to care for my husband's deteriorating Alzheimer's and really needed a break. I was so lucky to find Barley Manor, brand new with wonderful facilities so close to home. All the staff were welcoming, helpful and so empathetic. I was anxious about how he would settle in, and it took
a few days, but thanks to the kind and supportive staff he eas happy there and even joined in the activities.
Thank you so much.

After I had been in hospital, my daughter and I looked at my having a period of rest and recuperation In a care home. We planned to visit Barley Manor.. Before this happened I had a fall and we decided to ask for a quick admission. The manager himself came to set up the move and to answer all our questions.
The move took place two days later and it was as easy as checking into an hotel. My ground floor single room with en-suite overlooked a peaceful garden area and it was of a good size. The building itself was very well provided with public rooms including lounges, dining room, hairdresser, cafe, cinema and gym. The food was of good quality especially the cakes and desserts and i could have had any of the meals as room service.
It's all about the quality of the staff. They were all friendly and very well trained for their roles and were responsive to any concerns. Nothing was too much trouble. The management is to be congratulated.
This sets the gold standard for carehomes.

After an extremely stressful past two months with the decline of my mother's Alzheimer's, it became apparent to myself and brothers that she would need to have 24-hour care. We searched around the area and viewed a few places and our last visit was to Barley Manor Care Home.
When we arrived, we had
a lovely, warm greeting from the client services manager, she showed us around, spoke to us of her own experiences with her own mother, which was very personal and open. We had a long discussion with her, which made our choice a whole lot easier.
My mother was discharged from hospital straight to Barley Manor, the transition was seamless, the staff were very welcoming and put her at ease.
She was adamant she didn't want to stay but with their attention to detail and the way the staff have listened to her needs, she is now settling in very well and even taking part in activities which is a joy to see for us all.
Her care has been exemplary. A great place for our mother to be.

Following a challenging time in hospital for my mum after a fall at home, we needed to find some local short-term respite care for her before returning home. The team were exceptionally welcoming from initial enquiry through to show around and Mum moving in.
Barley Manor Care Home is more than I could
have ever hoped for in care. After worrying for a long time, the step change from home to 24-hour care, I shouldn't have as the team has cared for Mum so well and now has stayed full-time. A beautiful home for a loved one putting both her and me at ease. Thank you.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I needed to find a care home at very short notice for my father, I called the care home at 11 am and by 2 pm, everything was in place to receive him that night. We arrived late at night (around 11 pm) and were met by four members of staff who took care of everything, making him feel comfortable and
secure on his first night in a strange bed. It was an amazing feat by the team at a time when we desperately needed a home for Dad.
Since then, the care has been first-class at every level, from just looking after my father to taking care of his medical needs: all of the team are lovely, the facilities are first-class (think five-star hotel).
Putting my father into care was an immensely difficult decision: reflecting on it 2 weeks later he ls so happy there and thanked me for doing it; this is down to the amazing facilities and staff at the home without which I doubt he would be as happy as he is.

  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.860 for Barley Manor Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (268 Excellents x 5) + (37 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 308 Ratings = 4.86
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barley Manor Care Home is based on 26 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 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    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 63 registered maximum number of service users is 12.6, which has been reached with 26 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.

Hello, my name is Narcis, and I am the Home Manager here at Barley Manor Care Home.
