Going into residential care is a huge undertaking for any resident and their family, and not one to be undertaken lightly. Finding the right home with the right staff is a minefield and, to a large extent, a calculated risk. Finding Fairwood Fields was an absolute blessing. Not only is the home beautiful, it has an atmosphere of kindness, compassion and understanding which comes right from the top. My Dad has now been in 11 weeks and is settled and has everything he needs. Thank you to all.
Thank you for your kind words. We understand how important the decision to move into residential care can be, so it means a great deal to hear that you have had such a positive experience. We are delighted that your dad has settled in well and feels at home with us. We will share your feedback with the whole team who work hard every day to provide compassionate and supportive care.

It's wonderful to know that our team's care and support have given both your mum and your family peace of mind. Your kind words mean a lot and will be shared with all our staff.
Fairwood Fields is bright modern & welcoming. Much thought has gone into the refreshingly tasteful decor. The choice of lounges is also a bonus & seating areas away from the TV for those residents who just choose to chat. Mum very quickly made the decision, after a number of falls within a very...

The facilities provided are excellent, including a spacious room equipped with a large screen TV, en-suite bathroom, adjustable bed, and even a refrigerator-everything needed to support both comfort and independence. Most importantly, the staff consistently demonstrate outstanding care and compassion. They provide not just support, but also meaningful structure and a sense of purpose to daily life. This thoughtful approach has made a significant impact.
Thank you for such kind and thoughtful words. It has been and is a pleasure to support and care for your mum. We are so glad she has settled in and loves her new home.

My mother stayed at Fairwood Fields for two weeks as respite care following a recent health problem. I was impressed with the facilities and care provided all round, staff, food and general environment. As a retired GP I have visited many care homes over the years and I think it fair to say that I...
I was particularly impressed with small things such as providing a daily newspaper, obtaining my mother's preferred evening drink and offering a range of extra activities such as flower arranging and a cheese and wine evening. Keep up the good work!

My father went in 26th Jan 2026. It was for 2 weeks respite. After the first 3 days, he decided he was going to be a permanent resident. Dad has changed so much in the short time; he's loving the food and all the staff. My husband and I, my sister and brother in law all think the staff are wonderful, they always have time for everyone. Dad is now so much more happier, brighter, engaged and back to how he was years ago. Fairwood Fields is the best thing for all of us, thank you.

Fairwood Fields staff all of them have been brilliant nothing seems to be too much trouble. Mum has improved loads since moving to Fairwood. The atmosphere and surroundings are so comfortable & relaxed so friendly there always seems to be something going on to keep the residents happy. I have been told by the rest of my family and friends of mum who visit her that she is in a hotel not a home apart from being looked after so well.
It is great to hear that your mum has settled in so well at Fairwood Fields and that you have seen such a positive improvement since she moved in. Our team works very hard to create a warm, relaxed, and friendly environment where...

We'll, let me say, I shouldn't have wasted any negative thoughts about this Care Home because it's not like a care home it's just like walking into a hotel. So, if you're thinking about putting a family member in, just do it. I cannot praise them enough. I can't believe that anyone would have a bad thing to say about this care home. I can visit and when it's time to go I can do so feeling good because I know she's in safe hands.So a big THANK YOU to the staff for all you do for our family members.
