Our late dad, a WW2 veteran, passed away in his own bed at Oakleigh aged 104. He spent the last three years of his life at Oakleigh and he was very settled, happy and felt safe. We think going to Oakleigh gave him a new lease of life. The kindness, care, and friendship from the carers and staff was
wonderful and he loved the activities and entertainment. We really appreciate the support given to dad and my husband and I in those last few days. We will always be grateful that he spent the final chapter of his long life at Oakleigh Care Home. It is a special place.

My Mum's experience staying here to date has been overwhelmingly positive. Moving into reidential care at the start of 2025 was a big move but the team have really helped her to settle in. The staff are always friendly and welcoming, the building is kept clean and nothing is too much trouble.

My Aunt has been at Oakleigh a month now and has settled in well with the other residents on the Tree tops floor .
The staff are always friendly and smiling and look after my Aunt very well and always pleased to see us too when we visit.
She is very much enjoying the company of her friends there
and activities which she does on a daily basis .
She is excited for Christmas festivities at Oakleigh .
Well done to all the staff and Management at Oakleigh and thank you !

My experience with Oakleigh has been a revelation. We had to put my mother in care in May and I was extremely anxious as to how this would affect her. I have seen the stories.
She has her wits about her and is a tough cookie but her memory isn't great.
Well, she has never been happier. She
praises the staff virtually every time I speak to her. On my visits, I can see how the staff are inter acting with other residents as well as the general warmth of the place. Staff are accommodating and respectful in all circumstances.
Day trips, events and a real effort to make the place a pleasant environment.
She doesn't want to leave and loves the staff.
This is a big relief and it's changed her life. She's very happy . Happy mum , happy son.

My mother has been at Oakleigh, Godstone since late May 25' and has made us promise her that we will not move her out!!! I think that says alot. Its great for family/ friends to leave reviews but the biggest compliment Oakleigh could have is for one of their own residents giving a full 5 stars to
them!!
Well done Oakleigh and thank you

As a family, we are truly grateful for the kindness, patience and dedication shown every day from the staff at Oakleigh to our dear Mum. Mum has been a very happy resident at Oakleigh for over 18 months. After a recent fall and subsequent hospital stay the staff at Oakleigh have worked so hard,
going above and beyond in order to help rehabilitate Mum. Words can't express how much comfort It brings us knowing Mum is in such safe and caring hands.
07 November 2025
The Oakleigh team have been very supportive throughout our journey when Dad needed to move to full time resident care. The communication has been excellent and we were guided every step, making a difficult time less challenging.
Dad and our family have been made very welcome at Oakleigh. It has a
lovely, calm atmosphere and a selection of planned activities to keep him busy.

Unfortunately my mother passed away on the 1st October, having spent 3 very happy years in Oakleigh. I cannot thank the staff enough for their care, dedication and commitment looking after Mum. Oakleigh is a happy and cheerful home

My father has been a resident at Oakleigh Care Home in Godstone for over two years, and I honestly can't praise the team highly enough. From the very beginning, they've shown not just professionalism, but genuine warmth and compassion that makes all the difference.
When I visit, I often find my
father asleep, but I always see the team checking in on him, making sure he's comfortable, well-fed, and given the opportunity to join in with activities - even though he rarely can now. That level of care and attention reassures us that he is treated with dignity and respect at every stage.
It's never easy to watch a loved one decline, but knowing he is surrounded by such kindness and patience brings us enormous comfort. As a family, we are deeply grateful to everyone at Oakleigh. It truly is a special place, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the team there.

Since my mum moved into Oakleigh she has gone from strength to strength. She eats well and the chef is always around to speak to residents to make sure their dietary needs are met. She has gained weight which is marvellous .Yes it was daunting at first, but all the staff are lovely. Mum is partially
sighted as well as having dementia, which can be very difficult to settle anywhere. The staff always include her in all activities such as singing and wine tasting. She loved it. They have managed to get her knitting again and the icing on the cake was her trip out with them. She hasn't stopped telling us all about it, and the ice cream she had. Any issues the Managers are always available to assist. I can't thank all the staff enough for making her feel part of such a lovely family.

My Dad has been a resident in Oakleigh for two and half weeks. His words today to describe the staff and care were 'top notch.' It's been an emotional adjustment for all of us, but especially my mum and my dad.
The staff, from the excellent leadership team, to the daily care givers and all of the
other team members have been kindhearted, supportive, flexible and generally 'top notch.'
Dad's room is on the ground floor with a view out to the garden. One of the reasons that it works for him with his mobility and stability issues, is that it is modern, all on one level and has a wet room with grab rails and shower seat. Dad has been given aids such as an alarm mat on the floor and a grab rail on the bed, and his buzzer is always nearby.
There is a GP who visits weekly, hairdresser and a chiropodist.
As a family, we are hugely grateful to everyone at Oakleigh for their care, and keeping dad safe and would happily recommend to others.

Amazing care home manager goes above and beyond to help ! Food always looks nice and caring staff ! Thank you for caring for my Nan .
Always friendly staff when we go and it's nice to see the residents have the option to do activities etc x
30 April 2025
From the 1st day we felt this was a place where Mum would be safe and well cared for. Staff were friendly and responsive and always dealt with any questions or issues with courtesy and understanding. We asked if Mum could move floors and do more activities and this was granted to us. The home was
always clean and Mum was well fed and all her needs catered for. I would have no hesitation recommending Oakleigh to others.
11 March 2025
My mother is a resident at Oakleigh. She is very happy there and is well cared for. The staff are always friendly and professional and the home is always clean and well presented. A lot of effort is put into providing activities for the residents and there is a lovely atmosphere. Highly recommended.

The first few weeks for the carer who has to put their relative into a care home is a tough, emotional rollercoaster. The staff at Oakleigh were excellent at "holding-my-hand" during those initial weeks.
When I visit my mum, the staff make me feel very welcome and at ease. I really feel they know
and meet my mum's individual needs.
17 December 2024
Oakleigh in my opinion is a great Care Hime it is welcoming, homely and spotlessly clean. Whenever I visit my mum has care staff with her or in sight, and I have no worries regarding her health and wellbeing living here. Food always looks delicious, staff are dedicated.
26 November 2024
My dad had been at Oakleigh from July 2023 until November 2024 where he sadly passed away but he was so happy at Oakleigh and the staff loved him. My dad absolutely loved the staff and I can only say that the respect they showed him made me proud. They treated him so well and he loved it there.
It
seems sad to me that I will not be going there every week now but I can say that they deserve a very high ranking with care homes as experience has shown that they are not all the same and Oakleigh must be rated high.
20 November 2024
All staff have treated my nan with nothing but dignity, kindness and amazing care. The home manager is brilliant and as with all the staff always helpful and keeps me updated with Nan's health and needs couldn't ask for a better place. my grandad was also here and his end-of-life care was impeccable
as a family made it as easy for us to be with him whenever we wanted.
05 November 2024
After 6 weeks at Oakleigh, we took the difficult decision to move mum to another care home in the area. We didn't feel her needs were being fully met and there didn't seem to be a willingness to take on board and act on concerns we raised.
12 September 2024
I have been visiting Oakleigh Care Home for a few years now visiting my gran who lives there. I am always so happy to see how well she is looked after, all the staff at Oakleigh are always so supportive and helpful. Especially one staff member in particular who is always smiling and goes above and
beyond. And another who is always extremely helpful and professional. Thank you Oakleigh.
