We as a family think that Sydenham House is amazingly good. Each and every carer treat my mum with kindness, respect, thoughtfulness, and care. The premises are always clean, and during the winter months, lovely and warm compared to the outside temperature. The food is of excellent quality and mum
always enjoys her meals and desserts plus hot and cold drinks. The management are very friendly to us as well. We highly recommend Sydenham House for a loved one. Thank you to all.

Excellent care all around. Couldn't be happier with all aspects of care. All staff brilliant!
14 January 2026
I've worked in care for over 25 years. So I know what expectations I'm looking for. So I start by saying (wow) The manager of Sydenham House has gone above and beyond to make sure my mum as settled in well. eg personally talking to my every opportunity she can. I've witnessed on several occasions
letting my mum bring her own bed from her home and sitting chair- as she has memory loss having familiar objects around her helping to settle in. All staff eg from the cook, cleaner, laundry assistant, care staff. Activities coordinator all know my mum by her first and last name.

We have just moved my mum into Sydnam House. On the tour we were very impressed with cleanliness and friendliness of staff. On moving my mum in nothing was too much trouble and everything was made so easy. I would not hesitate to highly recommend.
05 January 2026
So pleased mum was accepted by Sydenham House after an assessment. Mum is 93 years old and has vascular and Alzheimer's disease and had a stroke in the summer.
The staff have quickly got to know mum and her needs, they are very attentive and keep us updated. We are always greeted with a smile,
nothing is too much trouble.
Mum frequently says on visits how lovely everyone is, I love the big spacious living dining area.
Mum's room isn't that big and has no en-suite, but this doesn't bother mum and the toilet and other facilities are close by.
A big thank you Sydenham House for all your care and hard work

Mum has just become a resident at Sydenham House. It is immediately obvious from our first visit today this care home is very well managed.
The staff are very professional, friendly and attentive. The home is very well maintained, comfortable and bright. Mum has settled already, and feel sure mum
will continue to enjoy being at Sydenham House.
Thank you

Everyone is very helpful and polite, everybody from the top staff to the lower staff are quality. Very good getting my mum installed with your handymen. Food is good and drinks trolley round all the time. No problem with visitors and no restrictions. Good size room and light clean and tidy in the
room. Room, toilet, basin, room internal.
Washing of clothes is done daily and nicely.
No hesitation in recommending to anyone.

The care my mother receives at Sydenham House from all of the staff is second to none.
Nothing is too much trouble and the variety of activities give her to join in with is fantastic.
It is a joy to visit her in such a caring happy and safe environment. It's definitely a home from home for her.

Overall very good care. My nan is very fussy with food so she finds this hard but overall I have no concerns. Care is a very hard job.

Sydnham House and all the staff have been amazing in supporting my grandad, from day visits to support his loneliness just after COVID to him becoming a full resident after a health deteriation. The process to grandad becoming a resident was extremely difficult and took a lot from me in regards to
energy, time and mental health but the manager was there for me every step of the way, she communicated with me regularly, supported me with the social services with grandad's best interests at the heart of everything she did. The manager and team continue to offer this dedication to myself and grandad. The care and love they have for him is such a beautiful thing to witness and makes me feel safe that he is receiving the best possible care daily. Grandad loves getting involved in all the activities especially bowls and singing and dancing along with the entertainment that is provided regularly. Music is such a magical thing for people with dementia and I have witnessed grandad come alive on these days.

A lovely welcoming home, a place you can go and visit your loved one and feel at ease. The staff here do such a fantastic job, not just with the people they care for but also with the ones who are visiting. My mum has come on in leaps and bounds since being here, enjoying meal times with others, to
joining in with activities, things she wouldn't have done before. I can see a high difference in her now and its all thanks to them.

I've been visiting my aunty regularly for a year and always found the staff friendly and treat residents with 100% care and respect at all times, even in challenging times. Last week my aunty had a fall and an ambulance was called. On my arrival, my aunty was still on the floor and two staff were
sat with her. I stayed until the ambulance left with her and during that hour or two I was impressed with everything the team did from the staff to the manager (even the chef came and spoke to her). Well done team. Thank you.

The staff at Sydenham House have been amazing. Dad was really distressed when he arrived and the team knew exactly how to help him. We are very grateful.

My mum is now 93, and she has had a fantastic two-week stay at Sydenham House. She keeps saying how lovely, kind and considerate all the staff have been. She loved all the activities and the fantastic company that she has had over the last two weeks. She has already requested to go back at
Christmas.
Million thanks on behalf of my mum.

My aunt entered Sydenham House Bridgwater this year at the end of July. After a different care home in Bridgwater closed. The team at Sydenham House Bridgwater have gone above and beyond to help my aunt settle into her new room and her new life at Sydenham House. The team also help my aunt with her
doctors appointments and hospital appointments. My aunt is happy with her move and likes the team who are giving 110% good service everyday! I visit my aunt regularly and see all the staff regularly who are always pleased to see me. They are all very helpful when I need questions answered and anything else I need for my aunt. I am 100% happy that my aunt is in Sydenham House with the team which makes a big difference when you live over an hour away! Thank you for all you do, please keep up the good work moving forward!

Our relative has been in Sydenham House for a month now and loves it there. There are lots of activities including craft days. The staff we have met are very nice and always helpful. We really like the four-chair lounge areas where you can have your visit rather than in the resident's room or the
main communal lounge. We are so pleased that our relative is very happy there.

All the staff are welcoming and caring towards us and gran. Nothing seems to be too much for them. Thank you for all you do!

My sister entered Sydenham House last year after losing her husband. The staff at Sydenham House have literally brought her back from the edge; she is so settled and content, plus she feels safe and cared for. I have nothing but praise for every member of staff who makes me feel most welcome when l
visit.
02 June 2023
My husband has had respite at Sydenham House for a few years now but recently had to spend several weeks there. I cannot fault the care and support they have givens us or the cleanliness. It always smells lovely when walking through the corridors. Many thanks to all the staff.

After being discharged from the hospital after my 4th hip replacement, I was not ready to go home, but the hospital said I had to leave. The staff and care I have received were excellent. They have made me feel more confident and stronger to come home.
