My mother moved into Broomfield Village Carehome in December 2025. The care home were able to have 14 of her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren join her for a birthday lunch in a private dining room just days later.
Mum has loved all the activities that are put on morning and
afternoon, and having been unwilling to leave her flat with her live in carers, she is now volunteering for all sorts of things, and is more stimulated by this and all the social interactions with the other residents and all the amazingly lovely staff, who always have time to stop and chat.
Having previously been looking a bit bedraggled, she is making full use of the onsite hairdresser, and is really enjoying having baths, having only felt safe to have showers for at least 15 years. She is looking younger and younger!
She loves a slow start to the day, so enjoys having her breakfast in her room, but then enjoys the sociable lunches and suppers in the dining room.
We can HIGHLY recommend Broomfield.

Mum went into Broomfield Village in Feb this year as she has Parkinson's disease (over 20 years) but was recently diagnosed with related dementia. She was previously living alone in an independent living facility but due to her memory declining she was feeling lonely. She was forgetting to eat and
drink and becoming very sleepy all the time. After a few weeks of being at Broomfield Village, she was eating and drinking well, interacting with others and starting to smile again. The staff got to know her, moved her to another unit where they felt she would thrive more, which she has and she now admits that she is happy there. Mum has always loved her food and she now gets plenty to choose from and is back to being the mum we thought we lost. As a family, we are no longer worried or anxious about mum, following our visits as she had plenty of people and activities to keep her busy. She had made more friends too which is lovely.

I can't say enough positive things about Broomfield. I first got to know the home when they invited me to bring my therapy dog in to spend time with the residents, and from the very beginning it was clear how much genuine care and warmth goes into everything they do.
When we later needed to find a
safe home for my mum, who has FTD dementia, I couldn't imagine her being anywhere else. The support throughout the move was incredible-there was always someone available to answer questions and guide us with kindness.
Mum's dementia presents differently, but the team have taken the time to truly understand her-what brings her comfort and what makes her light up-which has meant everything to us. It's given us real peace of mind knowing she is safe and genuinely cared for.
In a time that's been incredibly hard for us as a family, Broomfield has made all the difference.

My Mother in Law has only been at Broomfield Village Care Home a few months, but she has settled well. The staff are all amazing, and the facilities excellent. My husband and I live in Asia, and we feel very confident with communication from the home and also in the care she is receiving. Highly
recommend considering it for your loved one.

I knew as soon as I looked around Broomfield care village that I felt comfortable it was the right choice for my Mum.
The staff having been amazing, very supportive during what has been an extremely difficult time.

Broomfield Village is the most beautiful care home and the staff are truly exceptional. My mother arrived from a stay in hospital and was "broken". The staff have encouraged her to engage in activities and are slowly putting her back together again. We are always made to feel very welcome when we
visit and nothing is too much trouble.
The staff treat residents with dignity and compassion at all times.
I would recommend Broomfield Village Care Home to anybody wishing to have a loved one cared for to an exceptional standard.

My father received exceptional care and kindness during his time with Broomfield Village. Knowing he was supported by such dedicated, compassionate people brought great comfort to our family and close friends, and we are deeply grateful for everything they did for him.
Their patience,
professionalism, and genuine warmth made a real difference to his daily life. It was clear that he was treated not just as a resident, but as an individual - with dignity, respect especially for what he wanted, and understanding. That meant a great deal to us. Also never having to worry about leaving him knowing he was receiving such high standards of care was a huge weight off our minds.
The food is really good too which was important for him.
We thoroughly recommend Broomfield Village!

The staff have been amazing. My mum is on oxygen and finds getting out of bed difficult, when she needs to get out, they are happy to help. The support they give to the family is brilliant, and being able to join her for a meal is lovely.

Care is very good, Enitan is an excellent carer. He always gives my husband time, he's very patient and very caring.
My husband calls Enitan his friend.
I would like this carer to have recognition for his care.

We have been so pleased with the care our Gran has received here. She came in really poorly but has been taken care of so well that she is thriving in a way we never expected. Thank you - we are so grateful. Everyone we meet is so friendly to residents and visitors - and it feels more like a 5*
hotel than a care home! Couldn't recommend more highly.

For anyone thinking of this care home for a relative or friend, honestly do not hesitate. My Dad sadly only managed 4 weeks here, but wow what an amazing and special time that was for him and us. Absolutely everything about the place is just beautiful. The staff are incredible, caring and
thoughtful and this extended to our family and friends who visited Dad. They made us feel so welcome, so at home and so comfortable and we were always made to feel part of Broomfield village family. My Dad really got his sparkle back here for his final weeks and that was down to this amazing care home, friendly caring professional staff and the beautiful surroundings and facilities. I had no idea care homes existed like this. Broomfield Village is a very special place, it will always have a place in my heart and I will always be thankful for finding this wonderful home.

Mum has been living at Broomfield Village for 4 months now, and we are very happy that we chose this care home for her. Since moving in her needs have increased, and the staff have adapted to this and cared for her cheerfully and professionally.
I would urge anyone looking for a care home for a
loved one to visit Broomfield Village and see the level of care in action, and see the lovely facilities for themselves.

My mother had always wanted to end her days at her home where she had lived for over 50 years. This played on my mind, and I was very reluctant to consider residential care homes as my experience was limited to media horror stories.
The moment I walked into Broomfield Village, and I met the staff,
I knew we had found the right place. It was the only home we had seen where I knew I would not feel guilty leaving my mother.
The staff made her feel at home, got her into a wheelchair to join group activities and meals and we were able to take her into the garden, things which we could never have done if she had stayed at home. Later when she was unable to get out of bed, the staff would spend time sitting with her. The facilities were fantastic for the residents but also for the families, including young children.
I cannot praise all the staff highly enough, they were all so loving and thoughtful. When it mattered, they were there for my mother but also for my family and me.

the residents. The food is outstanding & looks so appetising.
All Louise's family, are so glad we found BV & we look forward to seeing our beautiful daughter begin to thrive in this special place.
We are very thankful to Mary & her team.

They have so much to offer everyone , it doesn't feel like a care home it feels like a luxury hotel. As a family it's so lovely to see L in beautiful surroundings being so well cared for by amazing staff who really care.
The home is filled with love , kindness , empathy and compassion. Bv truly go above and beyond for there residents, I highly recommend Bv to anyone wanting a loved one or themselves to have a wonderful rest and be well looked after. I am so glad we found you Bv thank you .

First impressions are that the staff are all very welcoming and friendly. They go out of their way to ensure that new residents settle in quickly. The surroundings are lovely and it really doesn't feel like care home at all. The restaurant and catering facilities are excellent. The nursing team
treat residents with dignity and respect. They get to know resident and seem genuinely interested in the person and their life.

My Mum has been resident at the Broomfield Village Care Home for 3 weeks now. The experience has surpassed our greatest hope. It is such a beautifully designed home, with wonderful interior design. Every aspect of our dealings with the car home and staff have been fantastic. All the staff are
lovely. The care my Mum has received has been exemplary. The care home is like a five star hotel. It is a joy to visit my Mum. I can't imagine my Mum staying anywhere else. We feel very fortunate to have found such an exceptional place.

An imposing building, with a spacious entrance hall and reception. On arrival each time the welcome is warm and friendly.
The room my wife occupies is very comfortable and clean, with a fully equiped bathroom. There is ample storeage space for clothes etc. A door leads to a small patio with table
and chairs, and a newly planted garden which is well maintained.
There is a pleasant dining room with menus for lunch & supper changed daily with a "light bites" menu as an alternative. In addion a garden tea room is available.
The carers and other staff are friendly & efficient and ready to meet the various demands with a smile and warm words of comfort.
