My dad was transferred here from having spent a few weeks in another local care home. And I can honestly day what a breath of fresh air in comparison. The staff have been so welcoming and polite to us all, they've all spent time chatting and making him feel at ease. The care home feels loving and
looked after with a homely setting and a fantastic garden area for independence. The food always looks nice and dad says it is. Thank you!

All staff are really friendly and welcoming. Dad has been supported from the start and felt welcome. Anything he needs, they try their best to sort out for him. The room and building is lovely and clean.

Couldn't ask for better care and support for my dad. All staff have/do go above and beyond with everything he needs. The food is fab, all homemade. The room is lovely, the staff encourage making it your own personal space, which is lovely. Thank you for all the outstanding care and support.

Dad has enjoyed his experience in here and has settled in since day one. Has enjoyed the entertainment and the care has been excellent.

My mother who has advanced dementia recently had a 3 month stay at Cherry Trees. Throughout this time, she was treated with respect, compassion, dignity and genuine affection by all the staff, from management through to cleaning staff. The food is excellent, the building hygiene and personal care
are spot on. Mum has had short stays in several different care homes over the last 8 years, I can say in all honesty this is the one I have truly enjoyed visiting her in. Residents are encouraged and supported in gathering together in the lounge and dining areas, on many occasions I'd arrive to find her holding hands and walking with other residents which was lovely to see. I found the management and care staff approachable, welcoming and supportive any queries I had were always resolved swiftly.
With thanks and warmest wishes to all the staff at Cherry Trees

My mum was here for 2 years, she passed away in August, as a family we have nothing but praise for everyone involved with Cherry trees, mum was happy here enjoying all the activities especially the singers who came in regularly, we were always made to feel welcome at any time. The food always looked
and smells appetizing, the staff were always approachable and would take time to listen to us. I would recommend this care home to anyone without hesitation.

Care was of the highest standard, always showed great respect for my husband & myself. Everything that was promised was delivered. All staff were brilliant always working in a nice quiet manner, the whole environment was calm & respectful. Sadly my husband passed away, the end of life care was
wonderful & I couldn't have asked for a more peaceful end with support to the very end, amazing staff.

As a family it was the most important decision we ever had to make, deciding on where our precious, wonderful, loving father would reside and call his home in the latter years of his life. Getting him in to Cherrytree's was without a doubt the best decision we ever made. The management and staff not
only made our Dads stay with them a wonderful experience, they also welcomed us, his family, with open arms. Dad was treated with upmost respect, he was always so well presented, clean, stimulated and happy. The management and staff could not have been more helpful, dealing with all situations professionally and swiftly.
Dad's last days in Cherrytree's will always be a time that we will be forever grateful to everyone there in Cherrytree's for. Everyone went above and beyond their roles, allowing us to share Dads final week of life feeling totally supported and loved. An experience i will always treasure and be thankful to Sharon and all the staff for. Keep up the great work.

I find this home extremely well managed, staff are very good, I have visited at different times of the day over a 7 day period due to my work, I have never ever experienced any negatives from this home or its staff. From a medical point of view they are always spot on and take the correct action to
gain medical advice and attention for my mum. I find the negativity quite odd and sad really. I can only say I really like this home and all the staff, I feel my mum is very well cared for and kept fully up to date, I will certainly be keeping my mum in this care home. Keep up the excellent work to an amazing team and manager.

Our beloved dad was treated with dignity, love, kindness, and respect by everyone at Cherry Tree. I have nothing but huge thanks to every one of you. We went most days to see our dad and although he had Alzheimer's we knew dad felt loved by each and every one of you .Dad sadly passed away in August
with us all around him. Indeed we stayed there a number of days and nights. I don't have enough words to reflect the absolute dignity and care dad and us all were given throughout. Myself and my brothers and sisters will never, ever forget it. You all went above and beyond. If there were 100 stars you would get that from me. Thank you to the manager and all the wonderful team you are professionals who care deeply about getting things right. You certainly did that for our magical dad and us all .

I would not recommend this care home. I have experienced extreme decline in my friend whilst at Cherrytrees. This has been decline in mental and physical health. What's more concerning is the lack of stimulation in this care home for the residents. I have to agree with another review and it does
smell of urine in here. It does knock you back when you walk down the corridors. Some of the staff and the manager is unfriendly. I'm not one for leaving negative reviews but it's got to be said and I do agree with the other negative reviews. I would not place my loved one in this care home. Be very careful when choosing.

My father was initially placed into this carehome on an emergency respite basis. The deterioration which took place in this carehome with my father was nothing short of shocking. I have never seen a person deteriorate so quickly. Not surprising really. I had to fight to get him out of bed. He'd be
laid in bed all day if I didn't keep ontop of the staff to get him out. It was more noticable when short staffed especially at the weekends. It got to the point where formal complaints had to be made to get the most basic of needs met. Managers don't seem to understand the importance of even the basics of stimulation in people suffering with dementia or Alzheimers. It seems as though they keep people in bed for ease. I can honestly say I have never seen as many people rapidly deteriorate or pass away as in this carehome. Being even more noticable as the individuals appeared physically fit upon entry, albeit suffering from dementia or Alzheimers. I would not recommend this carehome.

I find the caregivers to be very caring, very professional and always wanting the best for residents.
It's homely, food is good & rooms are more than adequate. Cleanliness is a priority & there are many activities arranged to stimulate residents.
31 July 2025
My mother came to Cherry Trees last summer and she settled in really quickly with the help of both staff/carers and other members/residents of the care home. It's not easy to settle when you have been so independent, but times were changing and therefore challenging for Mum. She needed help and care
24/7, and I'm so pleased to say that she has had this from everyone at Cherry Trees. She has been shown love and lots of professional care from every carer that she is in contact with

Dad has now spent around 12 months at Cherry Trees after sadly not been able to continue living at his home all alone. Firstly he was admitted on to the residential side even though he was suffering from dementia, but recently he has been moved over on to the dementia unit. I cannot speak highly
enough of how he is been looked after, from the caring, friendly staff, to the activities they provide for the lovely residents they look after. It is so comforting to know dad is receiving the care that he deserves in his later days. Thank you Cherry Trees!
21 July 2025
Personally I do not agree or recognise some of the negative reviews on here but everyone is different !!
From personal experience I cannot praise the manager and the team highly enough.
Putting our dad into care was the hardest thing we have ever had to do. Dad and us as a family, were always
treated with care, kindness and respect. Yes it's not the same as being at home and it tugs at every heart string but we went to visit every day and at different times so we were able to form a good picture of the standard of care he received. Dad was contented and happy and we will always be grateful to his carers and everyone at cherry trees who he formed a real bond with. 3 members of staff in paritucal are always available to listen and don't hide away like some care home managers.

I often look at Cherry Trees website page or social media to see what's still going on after losing my dad in January. My father was in the home for nearly 2 years. I am shocked and stunned at the terrible things that people have written about the care home and I can honestly say I have no idea When
these things could possibly have happened. I spent much time with my father in the home and I had to say without exception he was loved and cared for and looked after. He had severe dementia and was always treated with the upmost respect. I never came to see him when he didn't have a shirt and tie on which they were used to seeing him in to the moment he passed away. He had a shave in the morning and was beautifully clean. The staff can do no more than they do. They arrange fantastic things for the residence to do under very hard circumstances with lots of different needs of each patient. The cleaners are just incredibly amazing. I can rest knowing he had the very best care home

Since my husband was admitted to Cherry Trees, he has been treated with the utmost care, dignity and respect and always with genuine warmth, humour and affection, this commitment to delivering the best care for him has not waivered despite his fluctuations in mood swings brought on by his condition.
Visiting family members are greeted with warmth and humour and offers of hospitality are usual.
Communication is excellent, calling me whenever they have a query or my husband needs anything.
My partner often speaks highly of the cook's varied cuisine and has good positive relationships with the staff which is a comfort as he is the youngest resident and his condition has caused him to remain largely in his room despite everyones best efforts.
One member of staff in particular knows him so well and he enjoys her company which helps so much in enabling the rest of the staff to meet his needs when he is least cooperative.
The overall feel within the home is that of family which gives me great comfort.
04 July 2025
My mom was a resident in Cherry Trees Care Home for nearly 2 years.
All of the staff cared for my mom dearly every day.
They were always polite, the care home was always clean and was never smelly.
There were often singers who came to entertain the residents and always things to do.
All of the
residents were cared for and happy.
I never left Cherry trees worried about my mom, I knee she was always cared for, which is not the experience we have had in previous care.
Cherry trees is a lovely place to be for your loved ones.
03 July 2025
I would not recommend this care home to anyone. The smell of Urine when you walk through the doors knock you back and the residents look disheveled and unkempt. Some of the staff are very unfriendly too especially whenever you ask questions. I dreaded going to see my loved ones in this care home as
every time I went they looked like they had deteriorated and they looked very dirty too. The residents always look miserable which is not surprising when you hear the carers shouting at the residents because they sometimes get up out of their chairs. This is not a nice care home. Please think seriously before considering this place.
