Latest Reviews for Borrage House

I can not praise the staff at Borrage highly enough. They treat mum with kindness, patience and humour. She considers them to be a 2nd family. They make sure that I know everything that is going on I should make a mention of how well they handled the recent fire and how they cared afterwards, both
for mum and me.

I have been in Borrage House for a few weeks and have met with nothing but kindness and the staff are so friendly and approachable. They will stop and take time to talk to you when I am sure they are busy. The foods excellent as well.

Mum has been at Borrage house for nearly 2 and a half years.She is 92. She has dementia and my very frail Dad could not care for her. Since she arrived in Borrage house Mum has been happy and well cared for. I am a Registered Manager in Health and Social Care and I recognise that Borrage House is
well run and caring and that residents are treated with dignity and given choice. Those residents with dementia are well cared for and there are enough staff on hand to ensure full support and to meet needs as they arise. The food served is well cooked and tasty and the laundry service good. Mums bedroom is always tidy and clean and is comfortable.
Borrage House is clean, well decorated and comfortable. It is evident that the staff care about the environment as well as the residents. It is a home not an institution. There are clearly some very good staff some of whom are very experienced. Mum moving to Borrage House was a big step but has been an excellent move overall.

Mum has now been at Borrage for over 3 years having moved up from London. A huge and potentially risky move for her, but it meant she would be nearer to both me and my sister. We needn't have worried, as from day one, the love, respect and care given to her by all the wonderful staff has been
immense. I have no doubt that her life (she's 94) has been extended because of that.

My mother was a resident here for 3 years and died here last April. She was cared for with love until the end and the staff were very supportive and she died peacefully and with dignity.
09 June 2025
Mum moved into Borrage House 18 months ago.
From the very first day, she settled in and called it home. I truly believe this was down to the lovely, caring staff who treated her with such kindness, respect, and compassion. Time and again, she would say how wonderful everyone was and how well she
was looked after.
The atmosphere was always calm ,relaxed and so welcoming with plenty of activities to keep residents engaged if they wished.
Mum's time at Borrage House was safe, happy, and filled with comfort - in a place she was fortunate to call home.
Thank you,

The care of my sister is wonderful. She is settled and loves everything about Borrage House. The staff, the food, and other residents. She likes to go in the pleasant dining room for her meals which she thoroughly enjoys. Yesterday, a carer accompanied by his little dog, Honey, sang a variety of
songs and was well received by everyone. Borrage has such a relaxed atmosphere. We are so grateful for their excellent care of my beloved sister.

As I'm sure it's true for many families, we sought care at Borrage House under difficult circumstances. My research flagged up rave reviews for the caring attitude of the staff and I couldn't agree more. Every member of staff, front and back of house has shown kindness and professionalism and
nothing is ever too much trouble. They have fully supported my mum to enable her to settle in quickly. Which amazingly she has! The room is clean and comfortable. The food is excellent, beautifully presented and always piping hot. There's a great range of activities. I'm welcomed at any time of the day and there is always an air of calm. It really does feel like a large family. Any medical needs are quickly recognised and prompt attention is given by the visiting GP practice. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Borrage House and can't thank everyone enough for all they do. Mum is safe and well looked after and this week she described her experience of living there as "brilliant!"

enjoyed the meals provided.

The staff at Borrage House are first class. They go out of their way to ensure residents are cared for in every respect and to support me, as a wife of a resident.
They are introducing new activities e.g gardening (my husband told them he had an interest in this) and are taking residents to a
garden centre to choose plants etc.

My mother has been a resident at Borrage House Care Home for two years plus and in all that time, she has received kind, caring and loving attention. Borrage House Care Home has a warm, friendly and welcoming atmosphere and the staff are always most obliging and helpful. We, as a family, are very
happy and grateful that our mother is safe and well looked after at Borrage House.

My Mum arrived early July at Borrage House after a long battle with frailty and poor mobility, for her safety as a family we chose Borrage House. We were very reluctant to make the decision but so pleased we chose Borrage House after doing lots of research of care homes in the area. Mum has settled
in well and is doing so much better. She is well cared for, has a lovely room and loves the food! The staff are caring and helpful from the cleaners to the carers, the admin and the management. As a family we now have peace of mind and that is priceless for us. If Mum is happy then so are we. I absolutely recommend anyone to consider Borrage House and their wonderful team if they find themselves in the position of looking for a care facility that really does focus on care of their family members.
