Mum was adamant she did not want to go into respite care for a week while my sister and I took a break from caring for her. Magna Care Home has changed her prospective, and she would be happy to return. In fact, she came out on a high! From the moment she arrived until the moment she left, she had
been cared for, encouraged to mix and join in activities. My sister and I were relieved when we went away knowing mum would receive regular meals, her medication, and she would be living in clean, lovely surroundings. I can't praise the home and staff enough.

When me and Karen arrived we was met my wonderful staff that made us feel very welcome and relaxed. I felt so happy that Karen was being looked after by such nice people, and confident that she will be looked after. Thankyou all very much.

My friend became a resident two years ago. His stay was made welcome by all the staff, no matter what role they did. His stay at Magna care home was a very happy one. The staff made him feel comfortable and happy. He couldn't want for a better place to stay during his end-of-life care. I'm totally
grateful for the care and attention my friend wishes

Everytime I have visited my brother I have always come away with the feeling that there could not be a better caer home to be in. Entering the home I always receive a warm welcome and am immediately impressed with the way the staff are connecting with the residents bth on a one to one basis and
group activities. My brother is always full of praise for the staff and appreciative to the care he receives. All of the family could not ask for more. Thank you.

The staff are lovely very friendly caring and helpful. However there are things that could be improved sometimes in the lounge in the mornings there isn't much going on. One resident actually said to me "I'd just as well go back to my room, there's nothing much going on here". Also the dining room
is used to mainly be tables for 4 now its mainly tables of 2, why? How are residents going to get to know each other better if there only 2 on a table.The guttering needs cleaning out, its building in places.

My husband and I found Magna Care Home five years ago for our friend. He was disabled and wheelchair bound, and it was our last choice in the area that would be suitable for us to visit without travelling too far. He had been turned down by other homes and we thought it would be the same response
from Magna. It was the very best we could have hoped for and he was welcoming with open arms by the staff. He was respected at all times, and I could not be happier to say the best decision we have made on his behalf.

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.
