I simply couldn't speak too highly of the loving care he received while he was there. All the staff were kind, caring and considerate both to him and me when I visited. Kings Manor is indeed a huge asset to the region and I would have no hesitation in recommending it to absolutely anyone.

My husband has been at Kings Manor Care Home since April this year. The home is well looked after and what makes the place is the staff, they are all so caring for my husband and myself. When I say all I mean all, everyone who works there. I was a bit dubious about the home but when I visited prior to him going in, I knew this was a good place for him. All the family agree with me that he couldn't be in a better place.

My mother moved into Kings Manor in October 2019 aged 94 and died May 2023 aged 97 and a half. Throughout her time at Kings Manor she received excellent care, love and attention. She considered Kings Manor to be her home and the staff as her friends or even her extended family. 5 Members of Kings Manor staff attended her recent funeral (making a round trip of 20+ miles) which says a lot about their attitude towards those in their care. Obviously the home is expensive, but in my opinion, well worth it.

My mum came to Kings Manor Care Home just before Christmas 2019. Mum was one of the first residents at Kings Manor Care Home. Mum has just passed away and the care she received during her last days and throughout her time at Kings Manor was exceptional. I would highly recommend this home to anyone looking for first-class care. Mum's carer gave Mum care beyond anything we could have wished for!
Kings Manor have looked after my mother for 2 years because she needed more care than we could give her as a family and had worsening dementia. We wanted to know she was safe. The environment Mum lived in was happy and homely with an exceptional standard of care and Mum was always treated with...

My mother in law who suffered from dementia was placed on end of life care following a heart attack at the end of July. Due to her need for 24 hour nursing care she was transferred from hospital to Kings Manor Care Home. The home itself is wonderful as are all the staff. My mother in law received excellent care and she was very happy during the nine weeks she was cared for. We as a family cannot thank you enough.
The pastoral and medical care my mother has here makes her, and our, life easier as we have no worries about the way she is looked after.

I am full of gratitude for both management and care staff's handling of the whole pandemic, for keeping Mum safe and for welcoming us all in when it was safe to do so. Bless you all.
The home is very spacious and the rooms and facilities are excellent. The care of the residents and the attitude of staff is first class and cannot be faulted at all levels.

I know in the past the food has not always been good, but recently some improvement, so good to know.

My mother and father required residential care at short notice as a result of my mother falling and breaking her hip and my father's dementia. The managers and staff at Kings Manor have provided very high-quality care and support to both with calm professionalism and sensitively delivered compassion. My mother has recovered and is now living independently but my father has decided to make Kings Manor his permanent home.
My dad arrived at Kings Manor in a rather weak state for respite after a hospital visit. Right from the start, he described Kings Manor as a 'luxury hotel'!

My dad arrived at Kings Manor in a rather weak state for respite after a hospital visit. Right from the start, he described Kings Manor as a 'luxury hotel'! After 24-hour care and attention and excellent food, he has come on leaps and bounds. He has made new friends, and to our surprise, decided to stay! The staff are very approachable, friendly, caring. There's a beautiful garden and a lovely peaceful environment. Thank you. It's a pleasure to visit him to see him so happy.
Thank you so much for your kind feedback; it's been an absolute pleasure to support you and your father. We are so pleased that he has settled so well.
My daughter and I visited the home before my sister was transferred from hospital. We were impressed with the facilities, cleanliness, and friendliness of the staff. She was only there for one week so cannot comment on Activities or Value for money.

Many thanks for your lovely review which was much appreciated, I will pass your comments on to our team. It was a pleasure to be able to look after your sister and wish you and your family all the best for the future. Kindest regards, Marita.

Mum is well cared for and treated with affection. Staff seem genuinely interested in her wellbeing and in her as a person. Information about her past life likes and dislikes is welcomed and noted. I feel welcomed and appreciated as a visiting relative and staff are unfailingly polite. Short of being able to remain in her own home I feel that mum is in the best place she could be.
Thank you for taking the time to review our home and for such a lovely response which means a lot to all the team here at Kings Manor Care Home. It is such a pleasure having your mum at the home with us and looking forward to seeing you visiting us again soon.

Everyone is very approachable and happy to help with all the questions and information transfer at this early stage. I feel very comfortable with the decision to bring my father here. The only difficult time I was aware of was when they were short-staffed though someone was off ill at a weekend.
Thank you so much for your review. We are so delighted that you are happy with your decision to bring your father into our care. We really enjoy having him in the home with us here. Thank you again, Sabrina

Thank you for taking the time to review the home, we are so pleased to have your dad living with us. We look forward to seeing you at the home soon.

Emma started at Kings Manor as a Carer, and progressed her career to Senior Carer before finding her niche as a Dementia Ambassador. Her role is to train colleagues on new and existing techniques, keeping the team's skill set up-to-date with dementia care.
She loves the fact that every day is different in the home, and she particularly enjoys making a difference in the lives of the residents. Her approach is to treat everyone as an individual, and she is passionate about being the voice of the resident when they are unable to communicate themselves.
Outside of work, Emma loves going on walks with her dogs, which certainly keeps her fit. She also enjoys going on nice holidays when she can.
