Meadowbrook is like walking into a 5 star hotel. It's immaculately clean and nice light decor. The staff are amazing. They are so kind, caring and so pleasant. Always so willing to help with any concerns family visitors have with their loved ones. The food is excellent, make by the chefs. The atmosphere here is lovely and everybody seems happy and so do the residents. It's lovely and warm for the residents, which is so important and it smells pleasant and not of urine. My father in law wasn't happy with his chair in his bedroom, had a chat to one of the managers and she sorted out for him. The bedroom he has is a nice size and luxurious, with a fantastic en-suite. We love the private family and friends rooms too. We can't fault Meadowbrook. When we are old we want to move in there.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful words and for taking the time to share your experience. It means a great deal to us to know that you and your family feel cared for and supported here at Meadowbrook. Our team truly strive to provide compassionate, personalised care every day, and hearing that it makes a difference warms our hearts. We're so grateful for your trust and kind words.
We moved my dad to Meadowbrook in July 2025 after he'd been in care for several years prior at another care home. We were absolutely blown away with what presented us. It was unlike any other care home we'd seen before. More like a 5 star hotel. We wished meadowbrook had been open when my dad first...
We are so pleased to have chosen to make the move to Meadowbrook its not easy making the decision to move someone with this level of dementia but it was a worthwhile decision. Thank you to everyone at Meadowbrook.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We're truly touched to hear how much of a difference Meadowbrook has made for your dad and your family. It's wonderful to know that he's happier here and doing well. We'll make sure your message is shared with the whole team-they'll be so proud. Thank you again.

I am blown away with Meadowbrook. I have had to make the most difficult decision to place my brother into care as he can no longer cope with his Parkinson's & Dementia and the home care was not enough. After researching a few homes I was recommended Meadowbrook by my daughter in law who is in the medical profession, and met with Yvonne and I have not looked back since. Yvonne has been there every step of the way since April when the journey began, her advice and support has been second to none. It is due to her warmth and caring and genuine attitude that without doubt made my decision so easy. Laura the Manager came to my brothers home to do the assessment and again was absolutely lovely. The care team are all lovely and engaging. The home is beautiful, fresh, clean and new, lovely furnishings, food is very good, love the bar/bistro area even has a gin & cocktail menu!! A calm, relaxed atmosphere. I initially booked respite and we are integrating into permanent care.
Thank you so much for such a wonderful review! We are so pleased to have been able to support yourself and your brother through this process and can honestly say what a pleasure it is to support your brother within our care. We will share this with our team!

All aspects and all areas of the residential home work for me and have been successfully well designed for its residents generally. The bedrooms, including ensuite shower/toilet, are comfortable and satisfactorily furnished for residents, in which beds are made and rooms cleaned on a daily basis. There are also well-equipped bathrooms available for those that might need them. Breakfast and lunches are very good indeed and lunches offer different menu choices each day. Supper is early and has a more limited menu choice with a degree of repetition. An activities programme is published each week, which contains a variety of interesting choices for residents.
Thank you for your thoughtful and comprehensive feedback. We're very pleased to hear that all aspects of the residential home are working well for you and that the design meets the needs of our residents. It's especially encouraging to know that the bedrooms, ensuite facilities, and daily housekeeping are contributing positively to your comfort.

Our family are deeply grateful to the Meadowbrook team for the exceptional care they gave to Dad in the last months of his life and for the compassion they extended to our family. Dad lived with Lewy Body dementia and multiple co-morbidities and he lived in care for several years. We moved him to Meadowbrook because we were more confident they could meet his needs. Dad settled in very quickly because of the personalised, warm and experienced care provided. Over the next few months, the staff took Dad to their hearts and Meadowbrook was a delightful environment in which to visit him. It was difficult to take Dad out, and so eating with him in the Bistro created important memories. The food is excellent! Sadly, Dad passed away two weeks ago. The whole team leaned in to care for him and us and - with excellent co-ordination with the GP and district nurses - we worked together to ensure that Dad had a 'good death'. We genuinely felt part of a caring family. And will always be thankful.
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words. We are truly sorry for your loss. Dad was a true gentleman. It was an honour and a privilege to care for your father. We're grateful to have been a part of his journey and are touched to know that our team could provide comfort and support to him and you when it mattered most.

We moved out Dad into Meadowbrook in February and from the outset the team embraced Dad's incredibly complicated medical health & advanced dementia. Having been in a care for years were were both surprised and delighted that after one very unsettled night, he was calm, slept well and had no more of the aggressive outbursts, we'd experienced before. The care plan was exceptional and focused on physical, mental and social health, they did everything they could to ensure his overall wellness. The team made our whole family welcome, they showed kindness and care throughout our time with them and no more so in the last few days of Dad's life. They surrounded us all with love and support and made just being with him in those last few days, relaxed and comfortable. Carers came to spend their breaks with Dad, to talk to him and reassure him. They all spoke in such kind terms, they had really taken Dad to the hearts. Their end of life care was exceptional, we couldn't have hoped for more.

Thank you so much for this beautiful review, for sharing your experience and for your kind words about Meadowbrook. We are deeply moved to hear how your dad and your entire family were embraced and supported during such a significant and emotional time. We are especially grateful that you felt surrounded by love and kindness in his final days. Those moments matter deeply, and knowing that our carers were able to bring reassurance and warmth to both your dad and your family brings us great comfort. It was a privilege to care for him, and he clearly touched many hearts.
Most noticeable was how the caring staff took a genuine interest in our friend and were keen to kind out about her likes and dislikes to build up a picture of her life before dementia set in. Also by collection our friend from her room and bringing her to the lounge was a particularly thoughtful...
Most noticeable was how the caring staff took a genuine interest in our friend and were keen to kind out about her likes and dislikes to build up a picture of her life before dementia set in. Also by collection our friend from her room and bringing her to the lounge was a particularly thoughtful way of giving her the option of receiving visitors, or not, if it was a 'bad' day for her. Unable to complete all boxes as our visit was fairly brief although overall impression that accommodation was of a high standard and staff very professional.
It is really lovely to hear your thoughts on your friends recent move into residential care and that the wonderful staff at Meadowbrook made it such a positive one. Moving into residential care can be a challenging and emotional experience and by getting to know as much we can about each person and their earlier lives, means we can help support their move and make it a more positive experience.

I am Laura Adams, General Manager at Meadowbrook Care Home, with around 22 years of experience working within the care sector.
My career in care began as a carer, and I have worked my way up through the sector, gaining valuable experience and knowledge at every stage of my journey. I have completed my Level 5 qualification, which has further strengthened my professional knowledge and leadership skills.
I am extremely passionate about my role and about making a genuine difference to the lives of the residents who call Meadowbrook their home. I believe that providing high-quality care is about much more than meeting a person’s physical needs — it is about getting to know each individual, respecting their choices and wishes, supporting their independence, and creating opportunities for them to enjoy meaningful and fulfilling lives.
I take great pride in leading a dedicated team and creating a warm, welcoming and supportive environment where residents feel valued, respected and truly at home. My aim is always to ensure that every resident receives the highest standard of personalised care while being encouraged to live life to the fullest
After more than two decades in care, my passion for the sector remains as strong as ever, and I feel privileged to be able to lead a team that has such an important role in enriching the lives of those we care for.
