My stepmother is being very well looked after. The staff are kind and cheerful and the range of activities is great. She is treated with dignity and is always well dressed and clean.

My husband has resided in Baycroft for just over a year. I find the staff caring and approachable and are able to handle any "situations" with ease. The library is well stocked and there are numerous activities on the go as well as outings for the residents which appear to be well appreciated. The
food is quite varied and appears to suit most palates. Drinks (non alcoholic) are readily available. The Care Home is clean and warm as are the bedrooms. A delightful garden in which to sit in sunny weather, birds to feed and plants to grow in the greenhouse. All in all 100%

Baycroft is a wonderful place. The staff are really attentive and caring, and mum has made so many new friends here. She really feels that it's her home

Night staff took long time to respond and he wet the bed several times which was very upsetting. Night staff were often unfriendly and impatient. Support we expected for night wasn't there. Lack of bars in shower area, perching stool in bathroom would be useful, chair provided was not suitable, Lack
of support for Parkinson's issues, mobility has deteriorated badly since his stay, Brien was deregistered from our GP by Baycroft which caused problem when back home plus pharmacy for repeat meds was changed and not returned to normal pharmacy. On the plus side, daytime staff were helpful and friendly. The building was always warm and clean. Reception staff during the weekdays were very approachable and helpful.

My mother is now in her fourth week of respite care at Baycroft, and will become a permanent resident, I have been very impressed by the level of care she has received to date, and with the friendly caring nature of all the staff. This has helped my mother settle in relatively quickly.
Talking to
the staff on my mother's floor, it is clear that they really do care. For them, this is more than something done to earn money and pay bills.
Whilst my mother was initially nervous to leave her room, she ventured into the shared dining room for Lunch when my wife visited on her third day, and has been joining the fireside she met there ever since. The conversation around the table may have been limited (as most there have varying degrees of dementia), but included lots of comments on how good the food is.

Would be good to have wooden floors in bedrooms and different flooring in shower. Reason is keeping it clean easier.
Bistro is good social area.
Garden and outdoor space is lovely.

I have been a resident here for one year. I enjoy the entertainment and facilites very much. The staff are caring and respond to residents requests. I have made friends here. I enjoy being a resident here.

I have seen Baycroft grow from a few residents to a full home. Along side new staff have come and established staff have stayed with residents too. They all smile, are friendly and caring. My friend moved in on mobility grounds and had never used a gym before, watched a film in a theatre with
popcorn, played bingo and enjoys fun things new to him at 88!!

I'm sorry to say I don't agree with your care home being a five star because the food is not good at all cold dinners Sunday dinner no gravy thay all complain in there about the food it's been like that for some time.

My mother (90) became a resident in August 2024, we had been impressed with the home on our viewing - modern, clean, beautiful furnishings and decor but we quickly appreciated the team all working so well to provide full care for a challenging group of residents. It's never easy to move and have to
say, we are very satisfied with the home, highly recommend!

Such a lovely clean and friendly environment. Love coming here to visit my Grandma. She is clearly being looked after well. She's always in good spirits here and the staff are always really positive, patient and helpful. The rooms are lovely, there is a cafe area, nice gardens and lots of
activities: choir, hair salon, karaoke etc.
16 September 2024
Okay for 13 days/nights respite but not for longer.
02 September 2024
An excellent and well-presented care home. It is only spoilt by the quality of the food and poor presentation.

I am very pleased with the way Mum is looked after. The staff are very attentive to her needs.

The home is okay, and the staff are nice. They try their best, and the activities are good but like most care homes they don't like spending money. The one thing I cannot understand about this home is the quality of the food they feed the residents, my dogs are fed better. I've witnessed sausage
rolls, hot dogs and burgers that don't even look like meat. My Nan complains about the food regularly when we visit and I'm not surprised. They charge a lot of money and provide the lowest quality food I have ever seen. School dinners are Michelin star compared to here. Had a few issues with the cleanliness too but these have been addressed, apart from the strong smell of urine. They have also cut down on care since my Nan has been here, they no longer have a nursing team but the price is still the same or more! This is still a fairly new home so not in bad condition but it won't take long as they don't like spending money. If I could ask for anything it would be that they provide better quality food.
