Mayflower Court

I have been made to feel very welcome and the staff are friendly and helpful. Foods and drinks are offered regularly and appears to be appetising. Residents are invited to take part in activities and socialise which is a lovely option to be able to do. Facilities are excellent, clean and comfortable.

My mother was a resident here for a very short period only as due to her medical conditions she deteriorated very quickly indeed. However we cannot speak too highly of the care she received, nor of the support and kindness shown to us also. Although having lived independently for many years indeed, she adapted well to what she described as her "5 star hotel with care" and loved it at Mayflower Court. We were so impressed at the attention shown to her by ALL members of staff, the care staff quickly established a very close bond with her, and this was very evidently reciprocated by Mum, who would welcome individuals with a beaming smile when they came on duty. The difference when she moved from hospital could not have been more marked. Caring, attentive staff, prepared to spend time communicating with her meaningfully, coping with her deteriorating health with dignity, and going the extra mile. Thanks for making her last days so positive, we could not have chosen better for her.

My mother is now in a safe and caring environment where she is well looked after, eats and sleeps well, and is benefiting from social interaction and activities, even managing to play a little golf in the garden.

Mayflower Court is light and airy with well designed gardens and each lounge/dining area caters for 8-10 residents which encourages a homely environment in which staff can cater to the individual needs of residents.

The management, care and activities staff are not only kind and caring with my mother but are also supportive to me and keep me well informed. No request is too much trouble.

I could not have chosen a better care home for my mother.

During the festive season, there was constant entertainment provided , and as most required audience participation, we sang our carols together with the staff and residents from the Anchor complex opposite. My friends and work colleagues have all visited and are impressed with the care and facilities I doubt I would have made such a speedy recovery without the services of Mayflower Court- so thank you all.

I placed my mother, who is suffering from dementia, into this care home last month.

I have to say what a wonderful place this is - brand new and purpose built - not a former family home that has been converted/extended as many are.

The staff are friendly, patient and welcome visitors and I am pleased I chose this home for my mother.

The food is excellent, the facilities good and the joining in of activities strongly encouraged.

My Uncle has been at Mayflower Court for approximately 1 month now, and it is such a lovely and caring environment. All the staff are extremely helpful, from the managers through to the handymen. It is very easy to make contact with the managers and talk through any concerns. The carers make sure that the residents have plenty of attention and are always on hand in case of a problem, or just to offer a cup of tea or provide a steadying hand during a walk. The garden is beautiful and totally accessible even for people with very limited mobility, while providing lots of interest and many quiet corners to sit in the sun. The interior of the home is beautifully furnished with plenty of natural light and it is easy to walk around inside in order to get some exercise/ change of scene. Visitors are made most welcome - it is a pleasure to go there.
