Thank you for your kind words regarding the care your father received during his time at Braintree Mews. It was a pleasure having him stay and we hope to see him again in the future! I will pass on your feedback to the team.
My mother had a short stay and was well looked after with all the carers taking an interest in her needs. No need or problem was an issue. The communication with relatives regarding any concerns was excellent.

Upon entering Braintree Mews Care Home, I felt welcomed into the most palatial comfort. Customer service manager made the whole experience easier. No one envisaged this situation which is traumatic for all. My dad feels he has a purpose, he's valued. This home is a beautiful palatial palace for memory care and all the staff are wonderful.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. It has been nothing but a pleasure caring for Dad! We have had some great laughs together since he joined us. He has settled in well and is a greatly valued resident - also it must be said that he keeps our gardens looking lovely.

My mum had two weeks respite care. Braintree Mews Care Home is a lovely building with great facilities and staff. They provided activities every day for the residents. I couldn't fault it but staff were a little light at weekends, that's the only negative, but the care home is new so that was to be expected.
Thank you for your kind words, we will pass these on to the team, especially regarding activities. We are pleased that we have a rolling recruitment process that focuses on individuals' values and behaviours to ensure they are a good fit for us. Further, we are proud to have partnered with two local organisations to support people back into the workplace.
My mother moved in February and smooth transition from her home to the mews made her and our life easy. We found the staff very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We now have peace of mind knowing that she is having the best of care.

Braintree Mews thank you ever so much for your 5 star review. It is a true pleasure looking after Mum. I will personally thank the whole team as I feel your scores reflect the level of care from all departments!

The home is newly opened and is more of a beautiful hotel with the benefit of carers to help with various individual needs. It certainly isn't like any other care home I have been to.
It has a residential floor for those who may just need an extra helping hand but want to stay independent, a memory floor and a third floor too. All floors have their own dining, lounge and library facilities, all with beautiful furniture.
The hairdressing and beauty salon are lovely, as are the cinema room, café area and private dining room, which all help to promote independence. The fabulous activity coordinators plan a variety of daily activities which the residents are welcome to join should they wish.
This was a huge move for our family member but we are delighted that they have settled very well and are happy and thriving.
Thank you very much for your very kind words about your experience with Braintree Mews. It's great to see that your family member has settled in so well. It's also a measure of the hard work the whole team consistently put in. I will pass on your review comments to all!

Mum had a lovely time at Braintree Mews Care Home. She enjoyed the activities on offer and said the food was good. She also likes socialising. The room was luxurious and very clean and she was generally looked after well. My only concern was that she was not wearing her hearing aids when I picked her up and they were in the charger the wrong way round, so had no power. Otherwise, a great service and the staff and management are all lovely.
Thank you very much for taking the time to leave a review for Braintree Mews. I'm really happy that Mum had such a pleasant stay with us. It's great to hear such positive feedback around all the different aspects of the home. Your comments referencing Mum's hearing aids has been noted and will be passed on to the care team to make sure this is addressed moving forward.
Braintree Mews performed above and beyond expectations in every way. It is a hotel experience with carers!

Thank you very much for your very kind words about the care received for your mum and her partner at Braintree Mews. They are both lovely people and have fitted in really well. I will let the whole team know!
The staff are excellent, it's very clean. It feels like home. Everyone is polite. The food is excellent. Glad I came here and hope I can stay forever.

A big thank you to the Braintree Mews Care Home team for looking after my father during 17 days of respite care so that the family could take my mother on a much-deserved holiday. It's fair to say things turned out a little more challenging than expected however my father was well looked after and staff were more than happy for us to call and speak to them every day when we couldn't get through directly using my father's phone. Whilst my father was thankful to all staff and made some good friends, the family have to give special mention to one staff member in particular who went above and beyond to look after my father and keep us updated of how things were going whilst we were away. I undertook a post-stay review with my father in the week following his return home and other than making constant mention of the fantastic food that he had during his stay, he simply noted 10/10. Bottom line: Our family would feel more than comfortable with my father staying at Braintree Mews again in the future.
Thank you very much for taking the time to leave Braintree Mews a review. Your kind words about the level of care received will be passed on to the whole team. Rest assured - 10 out of 10 is our goal. If you can email me direct at braintreemews.csm@averyhealthcare.co.uk I will make sure that the person who shined out gets an extra pat on the back.

All the staff at the Mews, including reception, catering, maintenance, carers and management have been more than supportive. Living a long way from the Mews this support reduces my stress levels and I know that I can speak to Dad when ever he is available. There has been a real transformation in Dad in a few short weeks.
Good Afternoon, thank you for the kind words in your review, we will pass them on to the team. I am pleased that Dad's mental health has improved since being with us at Braintree Mews.
The service and information provided and presented by the manager and the team have been first-class. I was anxious as to how Mum would settle, however, Braintree Mews has gone above and beyond to make the move as smooth as possible. My mum appears to have settled very well due to the excellent...

Thank you, we really do appreciate everything you've done and everything you're doing.

The family had lunch at the Mews today. The private dining room is beautiful. Food was exceptional and portions were plentiful. Well done to whoever was the chef today. After lunch, we went into the lounge and joined a few more residents for a lovely afternoon. The Mews is such a friendly place....
The family had lunch at the Mews today. The private dining room is beautiful. Food was exceptional and portions were plentiful. Well done to whoever was the chef today. After lunch, we went into the lounge and joined a few more residents for a lovely afternoon. The Mews is such a friendly place. It isn't like a care home. Couldn't ask for better care for Mum.
Thank you very much for taking the time to leave such a nice review about your experience of using our private dining room. We will pass on your kind words to the Head Chef and all staff involved in the care for your mum!
Thank you to all of you for the care you have given our family.

The manager visited her in the hospital to complete an assessment. I have to admit we were anxious but the manager immediately put us at ease. He was patient and understanding. Listening and explaining, despite having a number of questions for us.
The process was made so easy. Mum has just moved in, and so far, I cannot fault all the staff. The facilities are amazing, but the staff exceed expectations. Nothing is too much trouble. I feel that they really care.
Thank you very much for taking the time to leave us a review for Braintree Mews. We take great pride in the level of service we provide from all departments. I will gladly share your comments with the whole team!

Hi, I’m Francisco, and I’m the General Manager at Braintree Mews.
I started my career in adult social care in 2016 as a Care Worker and have worked my way through different roles, including Team Leader, Deputy Manager and Home Manager. Having started on the frontline, I’ve experienced care from different perspectives, and that has shaped the way I lead a home today.
For me, good care starts with getting to know people. Residents should have a voice in their home, be listened to and have a say in the things that matter to them. I also believe residents should be involved in choosing the people who will support them, which is why I like residents to be part of our recruitment process where possible.
I’m a visible and hands-on manager. I like spending time around the home, talking to residents, families and staff and seeing for myself what day-to-day life is like. I don’t believe management should just be about sitting behind a desk and looking at reports. You need to know your residents, know your team and understand what is happening in your home.
I also believe in supporting people to do their best while being honest and accountable when things need to improve. A good team needs clear expectations, but it also needs a manager who listens, supports them and is willing to get stuck in alongside them.
My focus at Braintree Mews is to continue building a strong team, listen to our residents and families, and keep making the home a place that people are proud to live and work in.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my Cocker Spaniel, Cooper, getting outdoors, travelling, paddleboarding and spending time with friends and family.

I joined Braintree Mews in September 2026.

My Names Matt Reeve, I have been lucky enough to be a part of Braintree Mews since we opened in 2023. When we opened Braintree Mews, I was originally at reception, where I worked very closely with our bank CLM. As of September 2026, I was very lucky to have been promoted to the Home Administrator position at Braintree Mews; it’s a position I’m very excited to hold and one where I will look to inspire trust and confidence in all that we do here at Braintree Mews.

I'm delighted to have progressed into my head chef role. I have a passion for cooking and creating fresh, tasty meals and bakes.
