Savernake View Care Home

Thank you so much.

This is our only down side of the care home because otherwise it is lovely and has an amazing outdoor garden sitting space and complimentary food and drinks on display.

In general, a lovely environment by where residents are treated with respect.

Mum recently transfered from another care home where significant care failings became apparent. Savanake View has a wonderful feel to it and Mum is now safe and well cared for and settled in her new home.

Again! A happy stay at Sevenake View. Thank you all so much for your kindness and care. It is almost like I'm getting old!

My sister is particularly impressed with the kindness of the domestic staff- cleaners and kitchen staff.

When looking for a care home for mum, I visited about fifteen places in Gloucester, Cheltenham and surrounding areas. We needed somewhere where mum could have both privacy and company and where she could continue to live a stimulating life with quality care. Savernake View stood out as offering a warm but professional approach to care and mum also felt immediately welcome. Since arriving in September 2025, mum has made new friends, joined book group, been out on numerous visits to places of interest, enjoyed many performances and activities organised by the enthusiastic events team and is rarely at a loss for something to do. Savernake View defies all the stereotypes of a care home; the place is often buzzing with chat between residents and staff and all the staff are warm and positive. Communication with us as a family is excellent; we can rely on the care team to get in touch. Mum is no longer lonely and is enjoying life to the full in a safe place.

My mum was happily welcomed, and her needs and her feelings were very much cared about by every member of staff. She settled in easily and has been thoughtfully, kindly and personally supported in every caring way by all the lovely staff. So have I, they have supported me in the upset of letting go, in a very understanding way, and made me feel very positive that my mum is being cared for completely kindly, thoroughly and with great caring. She's happy, which is great to see, and her smile and words say it all (how are you?) 'I'm Fine!'

I found that the care and service provided by Savernake View is outstanding. It's never easy finding a care home for someone that you care deeply about. Here it was easy. Staff are willing to to listen to what you feel, see ,is needed. They are more than happy to communicate any needs that they think is needed. The entrance to the home is very welcoming and there's always tea, coffee and cakes to be had. The care standard is very good and are well looked after. I would have no problem booking myself in when the time comes.

Choosing the right care home for my Mum, who suffers from Alzheimer's disease, was a very big decision. However as soon as I stepped inside Savernake View, I felt very positive about it. Straight away I could envisage my Mum fitting in. The process of viewing the home, making the decision and then moving Mum in went very smoothly, and we were all made to feel very welcome from day one. Six months on, I feel just as positive about Savernake View. Each and every one of the staff is absolutely brilliant. I remember being so impressed how every member of staff knew my Mum's name after just a few days! They are all so kind, caring and cheerful, and always happy to stop and have a chat to Mum. The activities team put on a brilliant array of fun things to do every day and the meals are delicious and freshly prepared by the kitchen team. I can truly rest assured that Mum is receiving the most excellent care in very comfortable surroundings. Thank you to everyone at Savernake View.

She never wanted to be in a home, but sadly circumstances have meant she has had no option. Despite this she is incredibly happy with a lovely room overlooking the garden and the staff are top notch in their care of her, from reception to management. As her children my brother and I could not be happier knowing that she is so supported and cared for. It feels very much like home to us now too everytime we visit and this is exactly the atmosphere that we wanted her to be in. She has frequent visitors and they all tell us exactly the same, just how lovely everyone is and so welcoming.

My mother , who is not the easiest person to please , has settled in really well , she is happy and has even managed to take advantage of the varied programme of activities available. We feel her general well being has improved since coming to Savenake as she has plenty of stimulation and company that she didn't have when living alone .

Friendly staff, always clean and tidy. Very good.

Our mother was living in her own home (with support) until her Alzheimer's, combined with a hospital admission for double pneumonia made full time care necessary 24/7 at the start of 2025.

She came to Savernake View on a respite contract to see how she did. She transitioned well.

All the nuts and bolts of life are dealt with and I live locally, so can pop in any time (which I do). Mum is capable of accessing all of the entertainment, mini bus trips and exercise opportunities. The staff make sure she is well occupied. She is content.

She would always say she wanted to stay in her own home, but in reality, she is much better off at Savernake View where there is lots going on. It is fresh, modern and sociable. The staff are friendly and kind. My brother and sister like to visit (they live further away) and enjoy taking her out to Savernake Forest and into town, where there are many good coffee shops and lunch venues. She recently turned 95 and her cake was amazing!

I have every confidence my relative's care and needs are being fully met by the team at Savernake. They are friendly, helpful and nothing is too much trouble. They are pro active in their care and identify where my relative would benefit from encouragement to participate in events, additional assistance and/or medical intervention. They have provided peace of mind to our relative's family.

I have been a resident here since April 2025, A part from the very clean environment, the home as has excellent carers who go out of their way in making me comfortable and happy,. Nothing is too much trouble.

Highly recommend!

From the moment I first contacted the Home I have been shown the utmost care, kindness and understanding. At the time my husband was critically ill with Sepsis and double pneumonia, at best he was only given a 50/50 chance of survival. I am disabled (a wheelchair user) therefore I would not be able to care for him if he lived. The home is next door to my apartment block, it would, therefore be easy for me to visit him. It has a good reputation in the area, I can wholeheartedly agree, I couldn't wish for better care for him than that which he has now. The modern building and young enthusiastic staff plus the excellent quality of the catering give the home the feel of a hotel. There are so many activities for residents to partake in, those that hesitate are given very gentle encouragement to join in. The extensive grounds allow residents and families to meet up and enjoy the Spring/Summer days in very pleasant surroundings. Thank you to everyone for your care and kindness.

My mother has settled in over the last two months and is adjusting to her new life in the Care Home. Staff were very helpful arranging a suitable room for her and guiding her through the routines of meal times, activities etc

Savernake has a warm and very friendly atmosphere. The staff are all very helpful and welcoming. The facilities are well maintained and the rooms and social areas are all well decorated and clean. Overall, both inside and outside the home is in good order and has a mist positive feel compared to many others thatch have visited. The medical staff are attentive and keep a good eye on the residents. On the basis of the welcome, the first month's experience and the strong showing by the staff, I would happily recommend Savernake to anybody looking for residence for their elderly relatives.
