Review from Michael E (Son of Resident) published on 5 May 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Like anyone placing a parent into care, this was an emotional first for our family. Mum, Jeannette, moved to Saxon Manor in July 2025, and nearly nine months on, the difference in her is incredible.


Before the move, and with her Alzheimer's, she had become very withdrawn-no longer socialising, anxious,

lonely, and not eating or sleeping well. It was heartbreaking to witness. Reaching the point where she accepted support wasn't easy, but it was the right decision.


Now, we're seeing more of the "old" Jeannette again-happy, chatty, funny, and full of life. She's eating well, sleeping better, and no longer anxious or afraid. Knowing she is safe, cared for, and genuinely happy means everything to us.


All the staff at Saxon Manor are truly outstanding-kind, caring, and dedicated. You are not just carers, you are now my Mum's friends, and we are so grateful to every one of you!

Reply from Gemma Wilson, Regional Support Manager at Saxon Manor Care Home - Avery CollectionThank you for sharing such a heartfelt review. It's wonderful to hear how much Jeannette has regained her confidence, joy, and sense of self since moving to Saxon Manor. Knowing she feels safe, supported, and truly happy is exactly what we strive for, and your words mean so much to the whole team. We're honoured to be part of her life and grateful for your trust.

My sister and I find Saxon Manor a wonderful home for our dear mum. The staff are all wonderful and very kind and very caring. The home is beautifully designed and the decoration is wonderful too! The food is quite nice! The reception lounge is lovely with a nice coffee machine for family visitors to
use! It is very reassuring after visiting mum she is in safe hands and well cared for! Thank you Saxon Manor and all the wonderful staff! Les.

I have have had not one Loved One, but two LO's residing in Saxon Manor, a decision that wasn't taken lightly. After a 4 week respite stay, my first LO decided to remain as a permanent resident as they felt safe, well cared for, complex medication was administered appropriately, and the food was so
good. They remain feeling safe, well looked after and content having made their own decision to remain over 14 months on. 4 months on we moved a second LO from a care home that was substantially more expensive as we had concerns about the level of care and frequency to be able to visit due to distance. What a difference ALL the staff, including Joe, Charlie, Sophia & Megan had made to the transition, overall contentment and care of LO no. 2.. LO no. 2 settled well, felt safe and happy. Sadly, they were only at Saxon Manor for 3 months prior to their Alzheimer's progressing. Their end of life care was approached with compassion and with an urgency to make as comfortable as possible.
Reply from Stacy Watson, Home Manager at Saxon Manor Care Home - Avery CollectionThank you so much for taking the time to share such a heartfelt and detailed review. It has been a privilege to support not just one, but two of your Loved Ones, and we are truly grateful for the trust you placed in us during such important moments in their lives. Your acknowledgement of the team's approach and dedication is truly appreciated. It inspires us to continue delivering the highest standard of care to every resident and family we support.

I honestly can't thank the team at Saxon Manor Care Home enough for the care they give my nan.


She has been living there since January 2024, and the change in her has been incredible. She has genuinely never been happier or healthier. As a family, placing a loved one into a care home is never an

easy decision, but from the moment she moved in we knew she was somewhere special.


The care, kindness and respect the staff show every single day is outstanding. They don't just look after residents - they truly care about them as people. My nan is treated with so much warmth and dignity, and it means the world to us knowing she is safe, supported and happy.


In my own job I visit elderly people in their homes, and when the subject of care homes comes up I often find myself mentioning Saxon Manor because of the experience we've had. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.


We couldn't ask for a better place for our nan to spend this stage of her life. She's absolutely living her best life there

Reply from Stacy Watson, Home Manager at Saxon Manor Care Home - Avery CollectionThank you so much for your wonderful review. It means a great deal to our whole team.

Knowing that you felt confident in your decision and that you'd recommend us to others is truly appreciated. We're honoured to support your nan and grateful for your kind words.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 90-year-old mother has been a resident at this care home for over a year now, and I cannot express strongly enough how grateful our family is for the care she receives. From the moment she arrived, the staff have treated her with genuine kindness, patience, and understanding. She is very happy here
and proud of her home.


The surroundings are excellent-clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully maintained, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere rather than just a place of care. The facilities are first class and clearly designed with residents' comfort, safety, and enjoyment in mind.


There is also a good range of activities that keep residents engaged and involved. There is a good choice of food available and always plenty to chose from.


What stands out most, however, is the staff. They are absolutely fantastic. I would recommend the home to anybody.

Reply from Stacy Watson, Home Manager at Saxon Manor Care Home - Avery CollectionThank you so much for your wonderful review. We are delighted to hear how happy your mother is and truly appreciate your kind words about our team, environment, and activities. Providing a warm, supportive home where residents feel valued is at the heart of everything we do, and it means a great deal to know this has been your family's experience. Thank you for your feedback and for placing your trust in us.

My Dad, Michael now aged 85 arrived at Saxon manor on the 7th March 2025 and from that day his quality of care and life in general has changed for the better. My Dad was diagnosed with mixed dementia in 2023 and had lived independently up until Christmas 2024 when the decision was made that he needed
24 hour residential care. Dad loves being here and is loved equally by the carers who attend to his needs on a daily basis. As family we can visit at any time of the day or night. Christmas last year being dad's first one at Saxon manor was superb with xmas lunch and presents being provided. The previous month he celebrated his 85th Birthday and was presented with a beautiful cake. we were able to spend both his birthday and Christmas day with him, something we had not been able to do for many years.
We cannot compliment and thank the staff enough and while we understand that each of other residents have their own needs they along with dad are treated with immense dignity. THANKYOU x
Reply from Stacy Watson, Home Manager at Saxon Manor Care Home - Avery CollectionThank you so much for sharing such a touching review. It means a great deal to our whole team to know that your dad has settled so happily into life at Saxon Manor. Seeing his confidence, comfort, and enjoyment grow is exactly why we do what we do.
Your kind words about our carers will be shared with the team, they take immense pride in providing dignified, personalised support, and knowing it has made such a difference to your family is incredibly rewarding.
We're delighted that you were able to spend both his birthday and Christmas together, and that these moments felt special and memorable for you all.
Thank you again for your trust, your appreciation, and for being part of the Saxon Manor family.

The food, facilities and entertainment is incredible and I am very pleased we chose Saxon Manor for mum's care.

Mum has been at Saxon Manor since July 2024. She really is the happiest she has been for years despite having had a stroke and now being in a wheelchair. The staff are so friendly and caring and she has been lucky enough to get to know many of the same staff from the start so they have got to know
her well. She has made good friends and enjoys the many activities they provide every day, particularly film club. Mum was so reluctant to go into a home but is now very happy. We are so grateful to all of the staff for looking after Mum and giving her new lease of life beyond what we ever thought she would be able to achieve after her stroke. Thank you to everyone at Saxon Manor

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum was a resident for just over a year at Saxon Manor. As with many a new Care Home resident she really didn't want to go into care and railed against it to start with. However in no time at all she became very happy and wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere else.


Mums needs, which were unusual, made

her very demanding of the carers time but they always treated her with love, empathy for her situation and great respect. So much so that we as a family have all grown so fond of them they too will be missed by us.


I couldn't have asked for better care during Mums last days. The manager Stacey and all her staff were so wonderful to Mum she grew to have genuine love for them and it was very obvious to us that a great many of them felt the same for Mum.


So, from our family to the Saxon Manor family, a massive thank you!
Lots of love from us!

This is indeed a fine home. From the moment I enquired about respite for my husband whilst I took an break visiting our son and family in USA, nothing was too much trouble .The reception staff were able to show me around when I turned up unannounced (always a good sign!). The admin was clear and made
easy to navigate (I had MANY questions), and without exception ALL staff gave a friendly greeting!
My husband was very well cared for whilst I was away, as was reported to me by visitors.
When I returned to collect him he was clean and tidy and said he had enjoyed his stay and in particular the food! Staff were able to give me an update as to how he had been. I will have no hesitation in recommending this home and hope to use their services again.
Many thanks to you all.

My Mum had 3 respite opportunities before she decided that she needed more care than was available in her own home and Saxon Manor was definitely going to be the place. Having been able to visit her from New Zealand in her first weeks there, I am so delighted that with our encouragement, she chose Saxon
Manor. Management runs a really tight ship, and the care staff do genuinely care about all of the residents. Everyone is encouraged to participate in activities but also plenty of opportunities for quiet time if that is what is wanted. What impressed me most, is nothing is a problem, and family members are looked after and get the answers that they want to any questions or concerns. Like many, I had a preconceived idea of what life would be like in a care home, but Saxon Manor goes way beyond my expectations. Well done team- My Mum is happier now and loves all of the activities and is a regular at the cinema. Knowing Mum is happy gives me incredible peace of mind.

My husband, who has dementia, spent two weeks at Saxon Manor Care Home while I had a break with our grandchildren, who he finds rather boisterous.
I cannot praise the care he received enough. The staff who are the most important part of any care home are friendly, attentive and professional. I will

Mum spent the last 4 months of her life under the care of Saxon Manor Care Home. The home is beautifully decorated & spotlessly clean with the air of a 4-5 * hotel. I visited most days in lovely surroundings with a calm &a peaceful atmosphere. The gardens are well maintained offering a pleasant & tranquil
area for visits (or even a Birthday party!). The family were always made to feel welcome any time we wanted to visit. All staff were kind, patient and caring and truly seemed concerned for Mum's well-being. The home was supportive and accommodating with family wishes regarding medical care. Overall we are pleased to have chosen Saxon Manor to support Mum and family through what is always a difficult time. The home certainly has the feel of staff & residents being one big family, I am pleased to have chosen Saxon Manor and would happily recommend it.

(1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 22 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
