Dale Brook care home is modern and the rooms are very well fitted out with everything you would wish for in a private hotel. The dining and lounge area are clean and comfortable with very good food being served on clean white tablecloths for each meal time. There are activities for residents to take part in and all the staff are kind friendly and helpful. I do not have any negatives!

The decor is modern and clean. It is a real home from home.
There is a timetable of activities including day trips out.
The care of the residents is their number 1 priority. During a recent illness the staff were extremely attentive and contacted emergency services, they kept us informed at every stage and made sure my family members had the best care.
The rooms are beautiful, the communal areas are light, clean and colourful.

My mum has just been for a respite stay at Dale Brook. As this was such an important decision, I had visited several times beforehand, including the summer garden party, where I had seen how well the residents were being cared for and the friendliness of the staff. I had also visited a couple of...
Dale Brook is beautifully furnished and spotless, and all rooms have an ensuite bathroom, which was an important factor for Mum when she chose to stay there.
Meals are of a high nutritional standard & delicious. Mum really enjoyed mealtimes and I also observed the care and respect with which staff ensured the residents made their own menu choices.
All the staff at Dale Brook are exceptional - professional, friendly and compassionate; so we felt completely reassured that Mum was being well cared for & that her needs were being met. She enjoyed her break and said she intends to come back soon!
My father was in Dalebrook for 2 weeks respite. He loved everything about his stay. Thank you for taking good care of him . Big shout out to the chefs for their excellent cooking and the choice available as my father loves his food and to the carers who did a fantastic job aswell

Knowing Dad is in safe hands brings me so much peace of mind. Dale Brook is wonderful, the environment stunning with many activities daily which suits Dad as he enjoys being around people and joining in. His room is beautifully kept and the food is excellent.

Everyone was so kind and helpful to both her and me, and made a very stressful situation so much easier. She enjoyed her lunch and coffee and cake! I cannot speak highly enough of Dale Brook. Since it opened last year, we've also enjoyed coffee mornings and community activities there on a regular basis
