I do not have a bad word to say about this home. The staff are all amazing, always smiling, attentive and really do ensure the residents are happy. The cleanliness is excellent, as are the facilities. From what I have witnessed, residents are treated with dignity and I couldn't ask any more from a
home.

My mum moved into Dearnlea in February 2026. She has settled very well due to the care and attention given to her by all the staff. I am very happy with how my mum has improved since making that very tough decision and placing her in the care of Dearnlea Nursing Home. The staff go above and beyond
in the care given and also in reassuring the family members and informing us of any changes in my mum, I couldn't be happier in the care received.

Dearnlea is an exceptional care home, all the staff are friendly and feels really warm and caring , they do activities with the residents and get them all involved, they do food is second to none, as for her laundry I have never lost an item yet , I have tried other places and doesn't come near to
the Dearnlea, it's like home from home, I would recommend dearne Lea to anyone , it's brilliant , my sister loved it ,

I cannot fault at all this care home. My mum has been in about 3 months and the care for her with having dementia is really good the patience the staff have. Staff really bond with all of them. Mam was so tired after her party, went to bed at 7 o'clock, but they were checking on her all the time.
Cleanliness is really well not only in rooms but overall in the home. Well impressed.

The staff are very friendly and helpful at all times even when they are busy. The staff have gotten to know my mum and remember her name as soon as she walks in for respite care. The care home always feels warm and welcoming at all times.
The manager and receptionist have been especially
accommodating with my alterations to pre booked respite care holiday dates. Which I am very grateful for as it as allowed me to make the most of my respite care given to me for my mum.

When Mum first arrived at Dearnlea in Feb 26 she had experienced multiple hospital admissions since Christmas. She has Alzheimer's so they had interfered with her routine, creating confusion and distress for her. Vicki and her staff took time to show me around and talk to me about what they could
provide and how they'd cater for Mum's dementia needs as it progresses. The staff were welcoming, caring, knowledgeable and interacting with the residents. Mum was given a detailed care plan, which I was able to add to. The home is clean and nicely decorated. It took Mum a couple of weeks for her to get her bearings but I have been impressed with how bright she has been when talking to her on the phone. She tells me she likes the food, enjoys the activities and joins in with everything that is going on. I can see this for myself on the social media page and see photos of her. She told me yesterday that it's the best move she's ever made. I'm happy that Mum's happy and thriving.

I have found the staff to be kind and friendly always a smile, whenever I visit. My step mum says the food is wonderful and there's always plenty to eat. She has enjoyed the numberous parties that have happened for other residents Birthdays etc.

Dearnelea Care Home provides a genuinely warm, compassionate, and friendly environment. From the outset, staff create a welcoming atmosphere that puts both residents and families at ease. Their approach to care is clearly person-centred-taking time to understand individuals, showing patience,
dignity, and respect in every interaction.
The home fosters a strong sense of community, encouraging residents to feel valued, engaged, and as independent as possible. Staff are approachable, supportive, and consistently professional, creating a reassuring and positive environment.
Communication is open and responsive, with the team willing to listen and adapt to individual needs. Overall, Dearnelea offers not just care, but real peace of mind-delivering a standard of support that families can trust

Lovely friendly staff in all departments, plenty of food choices at every meal time, various activities available throughout the day, this was my mothers second visit for respite care and thoroughly enjoyed it

Mum has been a resident coming up 12 months now and the level of care she has been given has been nothing short of exceptional.
The residence is very clean and has a great atmosphere. The rooms are spacious, kept very neat and tidy and laundry handled very well. The quality of food is excellent. No
shortcuts; branded food items and Mum's diabetic diet catered for very well. The level of entertainment provided is great and very engaging for the residents. From singing along with the resident singer to hitting a few pads in their boxing gloves with the fitness team, everyone is kept involved and interested due to the vast array of entertainment available.
Most importantly, the manager's door is always open to answer any questions and the carers sincerely have hearts of gold. You can rest assured knowing your loved ones are protected and cared for in a thoughtful and respectful manner. Overall Dearnlea feels more like a family environment than just a residence. I'd highly recommend.
