My mother has been to Dashwood Manor Care Home for respite care on 2 occasions. It is a hard decision to make to place your Mum in the care of others but I needn't have worried. All the staff have the resident's and their families wellbeing at the forefront of everything they do. It has made the decision to place her here as a permanent resident much easier as we know she will be well looked after by both the staff and the friends that she has made.
Dashwood Manor has made my mum feel comfortable, respected and most of all cared for and safe. For what has been a difficult year with Mum's needs changing significantly, the staff are so happy to take time to sit with you and go through any worries you have.

Dashwood Manor has made my mum feel comfortable, respected and most of all cared for and safe. For what has been a difficult year with Mum's needs changing significantly, the staff are so happy to take time to sit with you and go through any worries you have. As a relative, you feel they are there for you as much as the person they are caring for. I will never be able to thank Dashwood Manor enough for the change that Mum being there has made to our lives.
All the staff have treated my grandad with amazing and attentive care. A huge shoutout to Kerry who has been lovely to my grandad since day 1 of him being there and has really looked after him. Dashwood Manor is a beautiful home will great staff.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Dashwood to anyone looking for a care home for their loved one

Very unhappy with the standard of care for my husband who was there for respite care. The home was unable to cope with the deterioration of his dementia symptoms and his stay with them turned into an ordeal for him and his family. Because of this experience, I strongly cannot recommend it for any sort of dementia care.
Thank you for your feedback, we appreciate your positive scores around the facilities and cleanliness here at Dashwood Manor. We are very sorry to hear that you’ve not had a positive experience and we do take your concerns seriously. I understand these have been addressed by the management team, but if you would like to discuss this further, please do get in touch.
I originally had Dad stay at the home for respite for two weeks as his Alzheimers had progressed meaning he was struggling at home. I thought respite would give him and me an idea of whether the time was right to move into a care home. I explained all of this to the team at Dashwood and they were...
A good summary is that one of the carers explained to me that the buses to Dashwood from her house didn’t run on a Sunday morning so she had to get a taxi, but her next statement put a tear in my, she said: “but it’s worth it so see all these lovely people”. True carer!
All the staff have been great and do a really good job at getting to know my Mother in Law and help her settle in and...
If my own parents required care home facilities I would not hesitate to recommend Dashwood Manor Care Home to them.

I find all the staff at the home so friendly, helpful, very caring and considerate towards my father. They have taken the time and effort to learn about him and his likes and dislikes and most things are done as much as possible to keep his time there very comfortable. He also enjoys being involved in activities that are well thought through and interesting. Very pleased with all aspects of care. Could do with better Wi-Fi though!

Our father went into full-time residential care in September 2021. He was welcomed into Dashwood Manor by friendly staff - from managers to the whole team. We have been very impressed by everyone's caring nature, treating him with dignity and understanding at all times. Everyone gives him time to express his wishes, his fears and his choices are always acknowledged. This placement has given us absolute peace of mind knowing that he is receiving the highest level of physical and emotional care, both during the day and throughout the night. We can't thank the staff enough.
Lovely experience. Friendly staff. Great facilities, good care when needed. The broadband is not good, making communication near impossible when trying to ring via broadband.

Dashwood Manor has been a great choice of care home for my father-in-law. He settled very well and the staff have managed to encourage him to join in with activities. We are very pleased with the home and its staff.

I believe that being a Home Manager is about creating a warm environment, not only for residents but also for those who work in the home or visit.
I joined Care UK because I appreciate their culture and ethos of supporting residents to live fulfilling lives.
Ensuring compliance is at the forefront of my work at Dashwood Manor is an important part of my role, but I also like to be involved in the day-to-day lives of the residents and team. Seeing their smiling faces gives me a big sense of achievement.
If the team are happy, this reflects on the residents. I’m proud to work with incredible people who want to make a difference in people’s lives. It’s fantastic when this hard work is recognised. In a previous role, I won awards for Manager of the Year and Dementia Team of the Year.
Outside of work, I love to travel with my husband. Travelling is very important to us. Family is equally important, and any spare time is spent with my granddaughter.
