My mum moved into Chichester Grange in April to help with respite care during her recovery from surgery. She had been very unsettled but once in their care she has thrived. They have helped her to relax and settle into her new surroundings. Nothing is too much trouble. There are so many activities to
take part in or just to know that they exist there is no reason to be bored, lonely or sad. The nursing care she has received is second to none. Not only are the staff there for the residents they are a great emotional support for the extended family too. They always make us feel welcome and we are never made to feel intrusive or in the way. Thank you to the staff for all they do for these elderly residents. My mum is very happy at Chichester Grange and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for care for your loved ones.
Reply from Samantha Chandler, Reviews Team at Chichester GrangeThank you so much for your kind and thoughtful feedback. We’re delighted to hear that your mum has settled so well and is thriving with us after her surgery. It means a great deal to know that both her care and the support for your family have made such a positive difference.

We moved our dad to Chichester grange after another home in Chichester wasn't able to meet his nursing needs. It's the best decision we could have made. Whilst the facilities are beautiful, gardens immaculate and great food, the reason we love it is the team who work there. There are a few people in
particular who really really go the extra mile, and more, so a special shoutout to; Samantha, Marlene, Effie, Isreal, Thomas, Annesh, Nicky activities and Bethany who are all led by the wonderful Nicky (the boss)! The reason we moved to the Grange was Ali, she's the clinical lead and just amazing! She cares, she's knowledgable, she's friendly and approachable, and above all gives us as a family full confidence that dad is being looked after well. So Ali, thank you a million times!
If you are looking for a nursing home for a loved one, especially if they are very unwell, I would fully recommend Chichester Grange.
Reply from Samantha Chandler, Reviews Team at Chichester GrangeThank you so much for your kind review. We’re delighted to hear that moving your dad to Chichester Grange has been such a positive decision for your family.

It’s a privilege to care for your dad and to support you all.

Dad arrived in October, after a challenging hospital stay. The team made the admission process as smooth as possible, doing a great job getting him settled in.
Staff treated Dad as an individual, spending time patiently talking to us about his care and doing their absolute best to make him feel at home.
The team on Dad's floor was impressive. During his stay, the carers were all so patient, supporting Dad with all his challenges. Particularly at the end, they did a first-class job in helping Dad but also providing guidance and support to us. They were reassuring, honest, and unfailingly professional. We really appreciated practical support ranging from chasing missing hearing aids to guiding us through the preparation of end-of-life plans. It all helped to make Dad's final days as comfortable and peaceful as possible.
We appreciated the tranquil environment, the garden, and the quality of the home. A safe well-run place. We couldn't have asked for better quality care.
Reply from Samantha Chandler, Reviews Team at Chichester GrangeThank you for your kind and thoughtful review. We’re honoured that you trusted us with your father’s care, and we’re pleased our team was able to support both him and your family with compassion, professionalism, and dignity during such an important time. Your feedback means a great deal to us, and we’re grateful you felt Chichester Grange was a safe and comforting place for your father’s care.

Moving Mum into Chichester Grange a month ago was a huge and difficult decision for our family, especially with her advanced Alzheimer's. However, the team at Chichester Grange has been absolutely amazing at helping her settle in. They are so kind and professional, always finding the time to chat with
us about her care. Close communication between us and the team is really important to us and we love using the app to see what mum has been up to each day.
We know she is safe and well-cared for, and it is reassuring to see her engaging in the activities - she particularly enjoys the music, singing and art sessions. Mum is lucky enough to have family close by and she loves it when they pop in for tea and cake in the on-site cafe or a walk in the gorgeous gardens. We are so grateful to everyone there for making a tough transition so much easier for all of us.
Reply from Samantha Chandler, Reviews Team at Chichester GrangeThank you so much for your kind review. We know how difficult this decision can be, and we’re so pleased we’ve been able to support your mum and your family.
It’s great to hear she’s settling in well, enjoying the activities, and that our communication and app updates are helping you feel reassured.
Your words mean a great deal to us. Thank you for trusting us with your mum’s care.

Review from Mel W (Husband of Resident) published on 14 April 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife had entered the Grange in October on a respite basis, but unfortunately, she was Sectioned because of some psychotic episodes. After a period of care in the NHS including 9 weeks in a hospital following a broken hip she returned to the Grange in March.
Almost immediately upon her return,
her Alzheimer's improved measurably and her general health has started to improve. I believe that she is now much more settled having her own room, and having attentive carers that treat her very well is helping her wellbeing. They are also looking after her medical needs, and I have a high confidence level that she will be more comfortable long term at the Grange.
I cannot stress to much that the staff are both very helpful and knowledgeable, and whilst it is a large facility the staff know who you are and make sure that you are posted on any developments with, in my case my wife.
Reply from Samantha Chandler, Reviews Team at Chichester GrangeThank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re delighted to hear that your wife has settled well since returning to Chichester Grange and that you’ve seen such positive improvements in her wellbeing and comfort.
Your kind comments about our team’s care, attentiveness, and communication mean a great deal to us and will be shared with the staff. Thank you for placing your trust in us.

The Chichester Grange is everything you want from a care home. Caring, cozy, helpful, warm. It was incredibly hard making the decision to move mum into full time care but whole team team did an amazing job helping both mum and I with the transition. I know she is safe and well looked after. The care
team are so gentle and have endless patience. The cafe downstairs is perfect spot for friends and family to hang out with mum and the garden is lovely to get some fresh air. The activities are a great and I know mum esp. enjoys all the music and singing. Five stars!

From the moment we looked at Chichester Grange to the move of my Grandma the service has been outstanding, communication is key to us and I am fully aware of whats happening with my Grandma and knowing she is really looked after and settled is all we asked for. Samantha's communication from the beginning
has been outstanding and she has been very supportive and the nursing staff I just can't fault so thank you!

Our experience with Chichester Grange over the past 3 months has been exceptional, and I cannot speak highly enough of the care my mother has received, since moving in with Alzheimer's. From the outset, mum was welcomed and all the staff handled her transition with sensitivity and compassion. The teams
are so kind attentive and respectful and the Grange is so welcoming to family members at all times and a great cafe too! Activities are well planned, delicious meals, and mum is happy and I know she is extremely well cared for. Thank you.

We moved my 101 year old mother into Chichester Grange when she became unwell.
The staff were kind, welcoming and reassuring.
The entire team at Chichester Grange really impressed us - they were consistently very capable, sensible and caring in their approach and unremittingly patient and kind.
They
not only looked after my mother, they looked after all her visiting family and friends too. They checked in with us regularly during our visits to make sure that we were ok.
My mother had a very difficult final 2 months due to her feeling very unwell, but Chichester Grange made the very best of a very sad process, which ended very peacefully.
Words really are not enough to express my thanks to the entire team, especially Justine, Tracey, Effie and Jackson.
Reply from Samantha Chandler, Reviews Team at Chichester GrangeThank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and heartfelt review.
We are truly honoured that you entrusted Chichester Grange with the care of your mother during such an important and emotional time. Your kind words about our team's compassion, patience, and professionalism mean a great deal to us, and it is especially reassuring to know that both your mother and your family felt supported throughout her stay.
Caring not only for our residents but also for their loved ones is something we place great importance on, and we are grateful that this was felt during your visits. While we know those final months were incredibly difficult, we are pleased we were able to help ensure your mother's journey was peaceful, dignified, and surrounded by kindness.
Your thanks to Justine, Tracey, Effie, and Jackson will be shared with them and the wider team, who will be deeply touched by your recognition.
On behalf of everyone at Chichester Grange, please accept our sincere condolences and our heartfelt thanks for your trust and kind words.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We are thrilled with the care and kindness shown to our sister who has been a resident for 3 months. The staff really care, and take time to get to know residents, deploying their considerable skills and knowledge with, in our case, dementia.
Chichester Grange is beautifully kept, the grounds make
for wonderful garden walks in the fresh air, the cafe, for tea and cakes where residents and staff enjoy time together. It is all spotlessly clean with laundry delivered back to rooms, folded or hung ready for another day. Almost 2 activities, something for everyone, each day and films in the cinema. Our sister has settled really well after being on her own for 30 years. She would never eat at home, being too unsettled, but now loves the food offered and enjoys eating with others.
Our sister is loved, cared for, is safe and has never looked so well, free from the worries that beset her, on a daily basis, living on her own at home. We can't everyone at Chichester Grange enough.
Reply from Samantha Chandler, Reviews Team at Chichester GrangeThank you so much for your wonderful review.
We're truly touched by your kind words and so happy to hear how well your sister is doing at Chichester Grange. It's lovely to know she's enjoying the food and our activities and most importantly, that she feels safe, cared for, and part of a community.
Our team works hard to create a warm and welcoming environment, especially for those living with dementia, and it's incredibly rewarding to hear that this has made such a positive difference for your sister.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My sister has been in the Care home a few months now. She is a little forgetful, but otherwise likes to be active. She is full of praise for the staff, the food and general care, but she is restless and feels somewhat regimented: television, sitting about , and singalongs are not really her cup of tea.
Having been in a residential apartment before coming to you, she enjoyed taking a taxi into the city, where she would visit the cathedral and listen to the music or walk around the park. She could also make tea or have a snack in her room when she wanted.
She loves the theatre and concerts,and has taken part in many activities in her full life.
Do you run a choir, or have local musicians in to perform in any way? Is there an art class where skills can be improved?
Are there visits to local places of interest?
Keeping active and stimulated seems vital to keep going, with something to look forward to during the week.
This is not a complaint, merely food for thought.
Reply from Samantha Debenham, Reviews Team at Chichester GrangeThank you for sharing your thoughts regarding Chichester Grange. We greatly appreciate your kind words regarding our staff and the care your sister has received.

My sister has a profound learning disability and finding the best possible care has been challenging. I need not have worried as I found Chichester Grange! My sister has settled very well and all her needs are met and care exceeded. Thankfully she has settled well and all the staff are so friendly and

Very helpful and caring members of staff!
More help is needed for patients who are restricted in bed due to injury, like helping them out of bed to sit in a chair for a period of the day, to keep their mobility.
The food for patients who have difficulty eating needs reviewing!
Example: Soup needs
sieving no stringing bits.
Sandwiches some just plain, no mustard, etc.
Reply from Samantha Debenham, Reviews Team at Chichester GrangeThank you for taking the time to write us a review for Chichester Grange Care Home. We are very pleased that you felt that the team was helpful and caring to your family member. We apologise that you feel your relative could have been encouraged more with mobility. It is very difficult to comment on each individual case as at times we have to consider the resident's choices and medical needs to if it is appropriate to mobilise. We are however happy to meet with you to discuss this and answer any questions that you may have. We have taken your comments on board regarding giving choice and variety to residents with special dietary requirements. Our new head chef is now in post and has already made positive changes. As a team, we recognise how important dining and food are to our residents, and are asking for regular feedback from both residents and families going forward to make the dining experience as enjoyable as possible.

I am so pleased with the care that my brother is getting from Chichester Grange. The staff are very helpful and friendly. The facilities are second to none and the activities provided keep him very entertained. He always seems happy when we visit and well fed and watered with a constant supply of tea

Highly recommend.

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 4.833 for Chichester Grange is calculated as follows: ( (168 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 198 Ratings = 4.833
  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 4.925 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Chichester Grange is based on 17 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 = 3.925
    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 75 registered maximum number of service users is 15, which has been reached with 17 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.

Nikki Burke

Job Title: Home Manager

I qualified as a Registered General Nurse in Brighton in 1988, and I have been in the role of Home Manager since 2006, working for various care providers.


I worked for Care UK previously between 2012 and 2015.


When I was contacted to rejoin in 2018, I jumped at the chance to return to a provider that has a vision and values that align with my own.


As Home Manager, you need to be focused, dynamic and able to multitask but also have a vision and a sense of humour. It’s a bit like being an orchestra conductor – you need to be able to oversee different aspects of the home, whilst keeping the whole home working as one to make sweet music.


I love being part of this team, especially when we work as one. I feel proud every day knowing that we make a difference in residents’ lives.


Outside of work, I love spending time in the countryside and walking with my husband and our dog Pixie. The New Forest is my favourite place, and we often pop there for a day or an overnight trip.
