Review from Michael T (Respite Resident) published on 20 August 2024 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
An enjoyable stay thanks mainly to the friendliness and kindness of the staff.
We had a few misunderstandings because of my deafness and the fact that English is not the first language of most of the staff.
Food quality was extremely variable from some meals that would not have been out of place in a good restaurant to others which were stodgy and unappetizing.

Group activities are hardly underway yet but enthusiastic efforts are being made and may well prove successful as the number of residents increases.

Review from Maureen S (Wife of Resident) published on 19 August 2024 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My husband had a week of respite care at the Moorland Garden to enable me to have a break. He was extremely well cared for and treated with utmost respect at all times. He enjoyed the food and has volunteered to go back any time I need a break! I am so grateful to all who looked after him so that I could have time with my family knowing he was being so well cared for.

Review from Michael M (Husband of Resident) published on 12 August 2024 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
We have been treated with the utmost courtesy throughout, from the home visit to discuss my wife's requirements/suitability and her arrival in the home. The whole team greet us with smiles and wonderful care is constantly provided. The atmosphere in the home is passed down through from the top management. Our one minor concern is that several of the staff do not speak fluent English but this is easily overcome by their charm. I spent 47 years in retail management striving to give such service. A big thank you to all the team.

Review from D Y (Friend of Resident) published on 1 July 2024 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
The Moorlan Garden Nursing Home definitely has the Wow factor. Everything about it ticks all the boxes. My friend, a permanent resident, I cannot fault the care from all the staff, nothing is too much trouble for them, and they are all willing to help. There is lots of room in my friend's bedroom. The staff are never too far away if she should need any assistance. Everybody should experience five-star luxury, and the Moorland certainly delivers that.

Review from Rachel W (Sister of Resident) published on 12 June 2024 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Moorland Garden Nursing Home is an excellent modern facility set in a beautiful area of Dartmoor National Park. The grounds are very peaceful and there is an abundance of nature all around. Recently converted to a Nursing Home, the rooms are tastefully decorated and furnished. Spacious reception rooms and large recreation/dining room with views over a large garden. There is a cinema, hair salon and physiotherapy room on site. Daily activities are organised and are varied. Home-cooked food, lots of variety and very tasty. Staff are all very polite and friendly and the standard of care is extremely high and delivered with respect and dignity. It's truly a remarkable nursing home and an asset to the area.
