Parklands

My wife was transferred from hospital to the care home in June 2025 due to her lack of mobility. As I was not consulted I was a little worried about the home but after my first visit I was quickly satisfied by the standards of the care home. The staff and management made my wife very welcome and comfortable right from the start. The staff are very attentive to her needs and are always very cheerful. I am always warmly welcomed on my visits and I feel able to discuss any concerns I may have with the management and staff without any awkwardness. The home provides plenty of entertainment and activities to keep the residents happy. During my life I have visited many care homes and I find this one to be of the highest quality.

I am emailed the monthly Parklands Newsletter. There is also a social media page.

Parklands has a social media page, so I can see what activities my Dad has been involved in.

The care is great with all residents considered for their individual needs. Food looks great and attention to detail within the home is meticulous from cleanliness to decor, fresh flowers always and good facilities all around. I am so pleased to have found Parklands.

The Parklands care home with beautiful views of the countryside always feels very welcoming and homely, with small areas for privacy when visiting and an outside area for sitting if weather permitting. The home is always kept very clean. The care of residents is excellent. The manager and her team treat the residents with dignity and respect. Always maintain high standards of care. The staff are very kind and friendly. They spend time with residents, are always willing to help in every way, and are very respectful to everyone. There are many inside and outside activities that residents can join in if they like and many books in the library. My husband sadly had to go into care, and he came to Parklands for just under three years. It was a hard decision to make but having visited the home felt it was the best place for him. I now visit Parklands as a visitor around twice a month and make friends with many of the residents and staff. I can’t say enough about this wonderful care home.

Please note: This care home is excellent.

When we visit, there is always an activity, sometimes outside people visit, play their instruments and encourage the residents to a sing song. A few weeks ago a falconer visited with some beautiful owls, even though our friend was in her room, the time was taken to bring a beautiful owl up to her. No one ever gets left out, the care shown is exceptional. Our friend is not too keen to leave her room but with care and patience breakfast has been taken in the dining room. We always thank the staff for caring and keeping her safe. Excellent teamwork on all levels. If seeking a residential home is for you, we can highly recommend Parklands.
