Review from R G (Daughter of Resident) published on 14 February 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother spent 5 very happy years at Fitzwarren Court. The flats are very comfortable and the services and facilities are very good. But it is the staff who make it exceptional. The friendship, care and compassion shown to my mother by all the staff - the care manager, the well-being team, the carers
and the bistro staff - was outstanding. She could not have been in better hands, and my brothers and I will always be truly grateful to them all.

My mum passed away while living at Fitzwarren Court Care Home. She lived there for three years and was very happy. She received quite a lot of care, especially in the last few months and weeks of her life. The staff were all amazing. They went out of their way to support my mum and her family, especially
the week before she passed.
I cannot rate them high enough. Thank you.

Review from Richard H (Son of Resident) published on 18 January 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am very happy with the way in which my Mum and Dad have settled into their flat at the complex. This has been achieved with the welcome they have received from all the staff who work at Fitzwarren House with their professionalism and friendly helpfulness shown at all times. Both my Mum and Dad are
happy in their new flat and this has made me very happy to see them happy after the big move and the distance they had to move to live here. The complex is in a very nice location and their whole experience so far has made it easy for them to feel at home in their flat. I would definitely recommend the complex to not only family and friends but anyone who asked.

Review from Elizabeth L (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 February 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My elderly parents have lived at their assisted living apartment for the past 18 months and are very happy here. All the staff have been excellent, are polite, caring and nothing is too much bother.
There are weekly activities arranged for the residents but no pressure is applied to participate. The
premises is safe and secure which gives my parents extra peace of mind. A maintenance man is also on hand for any small DIY jobs should you need anything done but there is a separate cost. The entire premises is kept immaculate, the gardens at the rear are well maintained and a nice place to sit outside. The other residents are sociable and there is an active residents association. We would highly recommend Fitzwarren Court and it gives me great peace of mind, that my parents are safe and well looked after.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have written a review previously, but I feel I need to add another now that my mother has been a resident for 9 months. Mum's well being has improved no end, compared to when she lived on her own. She gets to walk to get her 3-course dinners, we know she has been fed, and she gets to meet and talk
to other residents, who are all very friendly. This also takes a lot of pressure off of the family life. We cannot believe how lucky we are to find this new home for mum and she is totally happy with her apartment. The staff are all lovely and are all very helpful.

Mum has been at Fitzwarren Court for about a year and it has been a great choice for her. She has benefited enormously from the combination of independent living and flexible care. Her apartment is well-equipped and comfortable and the welcoming environment has enabled her to make new friends.

I moved here in July 2016 and find the care and friendly staff made me feel very welcome. The facilities and help offered to suit all my present needs.
It was hard to leave where I had resided for 40 years but it is only a few miles away and I enjoy being able to invite my old friends for lunch here.

Review from Andrea B (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 17 November 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We had the pleasure of having both my parents-in-law resident in Fitzwarren Court for 20 months. They rented a two bedroom apartment which was purpose built with every conceivable comfort an elderly couple required. They had a beautiful space of their own with the added bonus of a bistro restaurant
for their meals, an on-site hairdresser, transport to take them shopping 2/3 times a week as well as an entertainment program run by a lovely member of staff in the library most afternoons.


The level of care given by their amazing, dedicated team of staff in Fitzwarren Court goes way beyond the call of duty. They are kind, considerate, patient and caring and the dignity afforded to our parents was truly wonderful. If you are in a position of looking for the best place on earth for elderly residents to be taken care of, look no further than Fitzwarren Court.

I am so glad we chose Fitzwarren Court for mum to live. The caring attitudes from all members of the staff is excellent, nothing is too much trouble. The place is spotless and safe. Independent living but with the security of knowing that help is there if needed. This is as much about the resident's
families as well - as it gives peace of mind knowing our loved ones belong to the Fitzwarren Court family also. Thank you all for the work and care you give.
