The staff at Callywhite are professional, competent and caring. The physical environment is very pleasant, a modern building with nice gardens. The rooms on the top floor are very large with high-quality ensuite shower and toilet.

I cannot thank the staff enough for the way they have been working tirelessly throughout the lockdown and subsequent social distancing visits. They are always pleasant and friendly despite having to suffer extremely hot weather conditions whilst wearing the required PPE throughout their full shift.
My mum has been a resident since the end of last year and has settled in well, though the recent circumstances have understandably been upsetting for her, but the staff have been brilliant and reassuring and have given our family the peace of mind we needed, knowing that mum is being cared for to a very high standard. A big thank you to you all from the whole family.

My mum was a resident at The Callywhite for a number of years before passing away recently. She was very happy living at Callywhite. The staff were very caring and supportive and did their utmost to make it a home from home. In her final days, their respect and care were second to none.

I have been impressed by the standard of care at The Callywhite Care Home. Nothing seems too much trouble with patience and tenderness with all residents. I feel relaxed and confident that my father is being genuinely cared for by people who really care. It's not first a job, so when I leave to go back
home, I have no worries which means a lot.
I am also impressed by their cleanliness and design of a circular corridor so that whichever way you go, you will come back to the main hub.

Facilities second to none, more like four/five-star hotel. Mum has been a resident for nearly three years and I have nothing but praise for staff and management, they all work extremely hard and are always pleasant and approachable in sometimes difficult circumstances. Food always looks appetising and
well cooked. The home is always spotless and accidents are always dealt with quickly.

Mum has been a resident at The Callywhite since it opened four years ago. The care she has received has been wonderful. The staff are friendly and supportive of her needs. There are frequent activities organised and I feel confident mum is in a happy and safe environment which is well managed, clean
and fresh smelling. Mum enjoys her meals and relatives are informed of activities in advance to be involved with loved ones as much as possible.

The resident is well cared for. Her room is always clean and fresh - no smell of urine. Staff are always ready to answer questions relating to residents condition. The whole care home is clean and the furniture etc new and well presented. No smell of food. There seems to be a reasonable choice of food,
and activities for those who can take part in. Excellent bathroom facilities. Staff are respectful towards residents and always cheerful.

The level of care extended to my mother, who suffered from dementia, has been outstanding. She arrived at The Callywhite after an initial short period at another home where she was suffering terrible weight loss due to poor care. She is back to a healthy weight. This is due solely to the efforts, compassion
and high standards that are evident with the staff. I would not hesitate to recommend The Callywhite and indeed I have.

My wife continues to be cared for to a high standard. The care she receives is positive and proactive. It is a relief to me not to be chasing issues as was the case in my wife's previous 'care' home.

Staff deal with any concerns with care straight away. Sometimes there need to be more carers on the floor especially when a resident requires 2 person handling.
More age-related activities for the residents and more papers etc could be left around for residents.
Food at tea time is sometimes light
with the pudding offered as comes ready done in a tub.

Excellent standard of care. Staff are always on hand welcoming to visitors and interacting directly with residents. Residents are treated with compassion, care and dignity and with respect to their individual needs.
The layout of the Callywhite allows residents a level of freedom to walk around. Activities
appear to be appropriate to residents' requirements. Rooms are comfortable; the atmosphere is calm and relaxing. Staff communication is good.

Since my mother in law became a resident, we have been very pleased with the standard of care provided. All staff members interact with residents in a positive and respectful manner. My mother in law appears well cared for and has settled well into the environment following a transition from
her previous accommodation.

Have visited on numerous occasions and always find the staff & management professional, courteous, knowledgeable, & friendly.
Being greeted with a smile and always with eye contact is good. Whenever my father mentions anything to me it almost always is already known and in-hand.

Mum moved into this care home 4 months ago after some hospital admissions and distressing falls at home. At 96 she is experiencing some memory problems and general frailty. From day one the staff and facilities at Callywhite have been brilliant. From the domestics to the managers and everyone in between
they could not have been more caring and welcoming. Her room is perfect - modern, comfortable and well furnished and she is treated with good humour and dignity at all times. She doesn't choose to join in the activities, preferring to remain in her room except having her hair done each week by the lovely visiting hairdresser. We are so grateful to all at Callywhite.

My sister and I selected The Callywhite for our 95-year-old mother after 2 falls and hospital admissions when she could no longer live "supported" at her own home. After reviewing a number of care homes, The Callywight was an easy unanimous choice. A modern building with delightful well-proportioned
rooms, roomy ensuites, wide access corridors and pleasant and interesting views from bedrooms and accessible communal balcony. The home is well decorated, carpeted and maintained and with comfortable furniture. The management were helpful and caring and are accessible to families, dealing quickly and efficiently with matters. Although mother chooses not to participate, which she is free to do, the staff work hard to provide activities for residents on a regular basis. Food is attractive and plentiful and can be taken communally or privately.

The Callywhite has been my Mothers home for the last 12 months of her life until her passing on the 11th of March. I would like to say that the facilities in the Callywhite are second to none when compared to other homes in the area but the real reason for writing this review is to thank the staff (across
all shifts) who through their professionalism and caring attitude transform the place into a true home for the residents.


I cannot thank the staff enough for the way my mum was cared for especially as her needs increased.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.892)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.892) out of 10 for The Callywhite Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.892 for The Callywhite Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (190 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 213 Ratings = 4.892

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Callywhite Care Home is based on 18 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 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 39 registered maximum number of service users is 7.8, which has been reached with 18 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
