Our mum has now been at Blatchington Manor for about 7 months and she is really thriving there. All the staff are warm and kind and look after her every need. She loves the home cooked meals and cake and has even made friends with the gardener! We couldnt have hoped for a better transition into a care home - theres always activities on and staff to chat to and i can tell that mum feels really loved and respected at Blatchington Manor. The building itself is bright and airy and it has really good air conditioning that was a godsend this summer! Its also very clean and always smells fresh. I would highly recommend this care home, i cant actually fault it, all the staff are so lovely and make us as visitors feel welcome too.
Dear Sarah, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We will pass your kind words along to the team. Thank you.
My mother, Marilyn started being a resident at Blatchington Manor in April, 2026 and each time I visit her, she seems more and more settled. To be honest, from the outset, the warm reception she received to welcome her to the home, was so wonderful and Marilyn has become part of the furniture very...
The warmth and interaction of the carers is fantastic, they look after their residents so well and are always entertaining them with various things, to keep the residents occupied and interacting. Something my Mum loves.
The food is excellent as are the bedrooms. Good size, lovely Decor and regularly cleaned.
The care home itself, is always spotlessly clean, bright and the furnishings look like it's a 5 star hotel! :)))
Thank you to you all, for caring for Marilyn so well. She is very happy there.

Wonderful calm atmosphere, my mum is very happy and well looked after by the staff. Plenty of activities and good level of care. Very friendly, kind staff. The number of residents in the home is perfect for care to resident ratio.

Blatchington is perfect for our Mum as she is still very sociable despite having mixed dementia. The activities keep her busy every day, whereas other homes we looked at only had sporadic activities. Whenever I visit it is always clean and welcoming (visitors are allowed at any time). The staff really do care here and the home and gardens are beautiful. Mum settled in surprisingly quickly and I think it's because she is well looked after in every sense. The food is good too, as is the 24/7 app so we can read what she is up to every minute of the day and night. I'm so glad we chose Blatchington, Mum couldn't be in a better place.

Management and staff were all well presented, professional in approach but also friendly and approachable.
Would highly recommend Blatchington Manor. Food is superb and activities offered very helpful.
Nothing is too much for the staff, from walking into the reception area to going to the allocated rooms for my parents. Will definitely be using again.

Mum always wanted to receive full time care after staying at Blatchington Manor on a respite basis during family holidays. Although it was not appropriate for her to move in initially, as her condition progressed and it became unsafe for her to live independently this was the only place she wanted to live. Now that she has been resident for close to a year she is happily settled and looks very well, especially as she has nothing to worry about whatsoever. A couple of minor health concerns have been picked up by staff and resolved through her GP. Seems much easier for her to see the GP than I have experienced.

I had to arrange urgent respite stay for my mum when dad neded a break. Georgie quickly arranged to visit mum.and dad at homeand done an assessment so we could start respite as soon as possible. Mum spent nearly 4 weeks at Blatchingron Manor where she was quickly welcomed and all the staff were so friendly knew her name and were all kind. Mums mobility was our biggest struggle at home but with encouragement within a week i was amazed at the distance mum.could walk within the home. The activity program is non stop and the best in Seaford I've seen, Mum seemed happy and not stressed during her stay. A Big thankyou to Sammi who made mum's time fun and gave us reassurance that we knew mum.was in safe hands.

Everything we have experienced so far is top end. Dad has settled in well. The place is light, airy and the residents seem to be having as good a time as they can. Good value for money too. I would highly recommend if you are looking for somewhere for a loved one.

My mum has been at Blatchington for 4 years and the level of care shown has been exceptional. She is treated with dignity and kindness at all times, and I am confident that she is safe and well looked after. All staff are friendly and approachable and do an amazing job - nothing is too much trouble. Visiting is always a joy. The care home is responsive as regards any questions and requests and keeps me up to date with how she is doing. It is an absolute weight off my mind to know that she is happy and peaceful and I cannot recommend Blatchington highly enough.

Although I have not been able to personally visit Blatchington Manor, I understand from my sister, family and friends who have, that the facilities and care at BM are of a very high standard. My sister really likes her spacious room with its large window that looks out on to the beautiful gardens. She feels at home, appreciating the kindliness of all the staff.
As I live a long way from BM I have been particularly impressed by the caring of my sister; BM staff taking her to several recent hospital appointments and keeping me fully informed regarding her treatment.
My sister also enjoys the monthly in-house activities programme in which she often likes to take part.
Hi Anthony, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We will pass your kind words along to the team. Thank you.

The friendly staff manage the fine balance between encouraging independence while being there to help when needed. She has stayed beyond the respite care because she is...
I live abroad and have the reassurance that someone will chat with her if she's sad. I can phone her and check on the log to see what she's doing each day. The staff will contact me to share updates and help in anyway they can. Family and friends are welcome to visit and take her out
I have been so impressed with the friendly care my mother has received and the reassurance that I receive from all the staff.
Hi Merry, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We will pass your kind words along to the team. Thank you.
My mother moved to this home last year. I have been very impressed by all aspects of her care. The staff are very responsive to changes in her health. They are trained to take observations and raise concerns early to the GP or emergency services. They have a good relationship with the local GP...
They have an app where you can see how your loved one is, photos are uploaded and you can see what they've had to eat and drink.
I am a nurse and have been very impressed by the care my Mum has received.
There are many choices of food. Mum is a fussy eaten at times and she has eater very well.
The care staff are very kind and their standards are very high. They show love and understanding to their residents. Even in challenging situations I have never seen anyone lose their patience or be unkind. Their residents are treated like family members.
There is an excellent entertainment programme with visiting performers and daily craft and activities.

From the initial meeting at the home my dad was made to feel very welcome and very safe. Every single member of staff is kind and caring. I knew he was in the best place possible for his respite and the patience and care given was amazing. The home itself is beautifully maintained and looks more like a beautiful hotel. I can't thank them enough for the kindness shown to my dad, myself and my family.
Thank you for the review and for your kind words about our home.
