Fantastic place for my grandmother, she absolutely loves the staff and has done so well since moving here. Best decision was moving here, we know she is being looked after, is safe and loves being there. Great rooms, always very clean and lots of amenities.

I spent 3 weeks in rehab after a complete hip replacement. The staff were most helpful and any request was no trouble. The service regarding meals and room service was impeccable. There were activities organised both morning and afternoon for the residents to participate in if they so wished. My stay over the 3 weeks was most enjoyable and relaxing.
I am happy with the service, I love it.

My mother went into respite care at Willow Gardens after a 3-week stay in hospital. Her preconceived idea of a care home made her anxious but trusted my judgment as I had already visited the care home. Her worries soon diminished. She was made to feel so welcome and so loved. Nothing was too much trouble for the management and the carers. We really cannot fault anything. My mum felt poorly during her stay, and this was sorted out immediately. I felt assured and confident all the time that my mum was being cared for with the dignity she deserves so much so, we extended her stay to the maximum. Excellent!

My mother-in-law went into the care home for respite care back in February till April. her stay was extended to the max and I saw how well they treated her. What an excellent care home! She cried when she left to go back home. She missed it so much, that after 4 weeks of being at home, she went back for 3 more weeks of respite care, to help with her mobility and just to have the assurance of round-the-clock care. She felt part of a family there, and the staff all seemed so happy to work there. We were always made to feel welcome too. When the time is ready, she feels she would like to become a permanent resident.

Since my Nan has moved to Willow Gardens I cannot thank the care staff enough for how they all go above and beyond for my Nan. She has settled in nicely which is always a great fear, my Nan absolutely adores all the carers and often refers to them as angels! She also enjoys all the activities they have to offer, like pub lunches, quizzes, singers etc. Hearing my Nan speak so highly of the staff is a great relief knowing she is being so well looked after, they are all so welcoming and are warming towards the resident's friends and family. I would not hesitate to recommend this care home!

My father was recently accepted into Willow Gardens. Despite our initial nervousness, he has settled in beautifully. He constantly says how lovely and kind people are and he likes his surroundings. He has a spacious room with a lovely view. Unlike some care homes we viewed, the staff are constantly busy and engaged with the residents and there appears to be a good staff/resident ratio. We feel Dad is well cared for in a safe and stimulating environment which is well-run and very organised.
Always a lovely warm atmosphere in the place. Lots going on and respectful staff, always ready to help.

It is a joy being here, the staff are excellent, caring and kind. When I apologise for myself, or for asking for something, they always reassure me that it is no problem at all. I feel very secure and would be very happy to stay longer.

Mum had a great time joining in with all the daily activities and singing her heart out with all the entertainment.
Her bedroom was great and more than enough for her needs (a hand rail by the sink would be good).
She loved sitting in the living room...

She loved sitting in the living room with the other residents and carers. The food was of a very good standard with a good variety and she loved the occasional sherry!
They have a fab GP who visits every week and sees those residents in need. Chiropodist services are available as well as the hairdresser downstairs.
They have a lovely outdoor area which is great in the summer.
Management team were very experienced and always on hand to address any concerns or questions.
A low turnover of staff was important which Willow offered. The care staff are part of the fabric and family that is Willow Gardens and I cannot rate them highly enough.
Mum was treated with the utmost respect and dignity until she passed away.
Thank you Willow Gardens.

I wholeheartedly recommend Willow Gardens. My mother's time there was sadly too short, but the care she received was wonderful. Everyone was so kind, so thoughtful, so professional. I spent several days with Mum, by her side, night and day, and I saw how dedicated all the staff are. As well as tending to Mum and treating her with gentleness and dignity, they supported me and my whole family and clearly had excellent relations with the district nurses, doctors and other medical staff who came in. They treated all the residents with kindness and patience, helping them in every way, keeping them company and organising activities. I regret that my mum wasn't able to enjoy the conviviality and activities - I know she would have loved them. I can never thank the Willow Gardens team enough.
My mother moved into Willow Gardens after a short stay in hospital in November 2023, but quickly moved on to end-of-life care due to the medical conditions she had when she arrived. All of the staff, led by the manager, displayed nothing but the greatest of care and respect towards my mother and...
After my mother passed away we were amazed to see that some of the staff made the time to attend her funeral and wake despite her short stay with them.
I observed how all of the residents were treated by the staff, and their attitude was the same towards everyone. I would have no reservations in recommending Willow Gardens to anyone who asked me.
Rooms were bright and cheery with nice big bathrooms. Facility is in a lovely setting with beautiful grounds. I would highly recommend...

Thank you all for your kindness.
Excellent treatment (kindness, efficient all-round care service) and food is satisfactory. Family and visitors are treated with kindness and respect.

There are no restrictions on visiting, the staff clearly care about the residents and always make families feel welcome. Nothing is too much trouble. The additional benefits are regular GP visits which are always followed up with the family.
I could write so much more. Thank you for all you do for my mother.

Mum is very happy at Willow Gardens. She really enjoys the activities that are put on daily. She has really close relationships with all staff that go above and beyond their job role. Mum enjoys the food and as a family, we're really happy that they cater for her diabetes. We are really pleased that we moved Mum from another care home to Willow Gardens. It is an exceptional care home due to the care staff and management.
I visit my mum regularly and I'm always more than happy with the care given by the staff. Mum is extremely grateful and cannot thank the staff enough.

I visit my mum regularly and I'm always more than happy with the care given by the staff. Mum is extremely grateful and cannot thank the staff enough. On my most recent visit there was a party in full swing, the residents were seated in the outside area and were being entertained by the singer, it was heartwarming to see how they all enjoyed this experience and how time was made for each and every one of the residents, a great time was had by all including me.
