Friendly, caring, nurturing place to have a respite care placement for mum. Could not have done anything more to make mum welcome safe and happy.
Thank you to everyone from the chefs for good healthy tasty food. Cleaners for keeping the rooms and communal areas spic and span and all the nurses and
carers.

I don't even know where to start, but from the moment we stepped into the magna for a look around, it felt like home. It was warm and cosy and had a real family feel to it. All the staff were happy and smiley and would say hello. We knew instantly this was the right place for my nanny to come after
viewing multiple other homes. The rooms were spacious, clean and tidy and decorated perfectly. There is a lovely lounge area to sit in and they were so welcoming to family and friends that visited. We were able to stay for meals and the staff were so inclusive with family. Although nanny wasn't there long, she was extremely well cared for and looked after. The staff at magna all hold a special place in our hearts for the love and care they not only showed nanny, but all the family as well. I highly recommend the Magna to anyone looking for somewhere to send a loved one.

Magna Care Centre provides excellent and supportive care to its residents. My mother has been a resident there for over two years and I could not wish for a better care environment for her. They offer varied activities for their residents. The whole environment is caring and supportive. An
exceptional care home.

Magna Care centre deserves more than 5 stars! Towards the end of a year of caring for our Dad through the final stages of terminal cancer, coping with all the treatments, the hospital and Hospice visits and stays, culminating in having carers to his home three times a day, Dad had endured enough and
we were thankfully guided by the Palliative Care Team to find his final home in every sense of the word. Magna Care Centre is nestled in beautiful grounds at Canford Magna and is a true breath of fresh air! What an oasis of calm, tranquility and perfection it is! Immediately upon speaking with the lovely Stella on the phone, to entering the welcoming doors of the Spanish Hacienda style entrance, my brother and I knew we had "found the one". We cannot commend the home more highly to anyone who needs help facing the difficult decision of placing the care and responsibility of their nearest and dearest at a time when you are overwhelmed and sad to your core. Stella gave us a tour of the bright,

Our experience has been such a positive one with Magna Care, the carers and staff members are so helpful and friendly both towards resident, family and friends.
Our visits are always welcomed with a smile, they treat residents with respect and acknowledge their needs too, which is so important.
Thank you for all your hard work.

Mum became a resident of Magna Care back in July 2025.
It was a very simple selection process for our family as Dad was also at Magna Care before passing away in May 2025.
With Mum's care as it was with Dad's care was provided to the highest levels not only with all care needs met but, with
compassion and understanding towards individual needs.
The entire Team at Magna deliver above and beyond expectations.
Not only is the location of Magna Care outstanding the facilites are quite exceptional, providing a calm relaxing safe freindly and happy environment.
As a family we could not speak more highly of Magna Care's excellence and the peace of mind provided knowing Mum was recieving exceptional support each and everyday.
Thank you to all at Magna Care.

I feel confident leaving my mother-in-law in the care if these people.

Always made very welcome. Nothing is too much trouble. Great diary of activities, always planned, and a timetable issued. Facilities are always available, and take time to maintain the residents' belongings and room tidiness.

After all the stresses of my father's illness we eventually found the Magna Care Centre which was a breath of fresh air and, in all truthfulness, a relief to have the chance to settle Dad into a safe, comfortable and caring environment. Dad was afforded a good sized room with great facilities and
views of the surrounding lawns. As visitors we were always welcome and enjoyed the ambiance and activity in the main areas. During his short time at Magna Care, Dad was treated with compassion, dignity and genuine care. Every staff member from carers, nurses, kitchen, housekeeping and administration were exceptional.
In all Magna Care was a fantastic experience.

My Mother has been staying at Magna Care Centre since December 2025. Mum is now very settled at the care home . The nurses, carers and all of the staff are always friendly and helpful and all of Mum's needs are met with professionalism, compassion and smiles. The food is excellent and enjoyed by
all! The daily activities are always varied, creative and full of fun! Housekeeping and maintenance keep the home very clean and tidy and are always there to support all of the residents. Mum is looking forward to sitting outside in the Spring in their pretty courtyard garden full of flowers and plants to enjoy in the sunshine. The home arranges lots of interesting events that often includes the local community so everyone can get involved and enjoy being together. Magna really is a special home from home and Mum has made some really special friends and this is a joy to see. The property is spacious and bright and sits within manicured lawns with terraces and woodlands to relax and enjoy.

Magna Care Centre is a lovely spacious home with decent bedroom, with lots of activities. Mum entered Magna in Nov 2025 for a short time due to illness, but the staff were very caring and nothing was too much trouble for mum anytime of day or night ie food, drink or just help and chat. Due to last
few days and hours the staff were very helpful too all of the family who wanted to spend time with mum. We can't thank them enough.
29 January 2026
Magna has a very welcoming atmosphere. All the staff are friendly and caring and they work hard to ensure that residents are well cared for. Whenever we visit to see dad there's always a cheery greeting and a friendly wave from the staff, and he is evidently well looked after. The food is great too!
23 December 2025
On our visits to the Magna Care Centre the visits are always fruitful in the actions of the staff and the demeaner of the residents. We have seen the variety of activities, and the enthusiasm all who participate, is a great specter to see. The work of the staff organising the activities, cannot be
under estimated, it is fantastic. The care towards the residents is shown by the 'extra mile' in providing benefits towards resident care. A joy to see!

I have found Magna Care Centre to be outstanding. My sister was beautifully looked after and the family really well supported. The staff are friendly, helpful and welcoming. I said to a friend of mine, 5 stars are not enough, more like 10 needed! Thank you Magna - you helped me through such a
difficult time, will never forget your kindness.

My friend was admitted to Magna Care Home 10+ days ago, and I have visited her in that period many times, even staying nights in the recliner chair (very comfortable).
On my first visit, I was immediately struck by the atmosphere, homely, welcoming, light and fresh, and this only grew when I met
the staff, each one, nursing, cleaning, kitchen, caring and office staff, ALL without exception, kind, helpful, thoughtful, fun - plus - professional! This is a special place.

The staff are wonderful. The care is professional and caring - the nurses are attentive and informative. The support staff are friendly and cheerful. The facilities are excellent. The lounge is comfortable and welcoming. The activities are engaging, and the residents are clearly enjoying them. The
garden and grounds are beautiful, and the rooms have a great outlook. I have felt very confident that my mother-in-law is being well looked after.

My very dear friend of many years was admitted to Magna Care Centre yesterday. She is here for end-of-life care, suffering from terminal lung cancer. On first impression of the home, I am happy that it's very welcoming, with kind, compassionate staff in attendance. My friend has a lovely,
comfortable room with a garden view. I feel already that she will be looked after.

My wife received good nursing and personal care. Every member of staff is hardworking and treated her with respect, compassion and friendship, and given support. Housekeeping is excellent. Her room and ensuite is modern and well finished. The house and grounds are well-maintained. The communal area
and restaurant are good in design and finish. I shall enthusiastically recommend The Magna Care Home. Thank you.
