My wife who is a resident at the home says the home is very good. The activity are very good. As she is a very plane eater, the kitchen always has an alternative for her! (This is only when the menu does not suit her eating).

Mum has now been at Colne View for just over 6 months. She was previously in a home in the adjoining town, and we did not have a very good experience.
However, what a contrast. I seriously can not fault Colne View in any area. Mum truly feels at home. The food, staff and activities are first class.
Rooms are ensuite, and the whole of the premises is spotlessly clean.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Colne View to anyone.
Having looked at many homes, and our previous experience, there is no other place I would want mum to be.
Thank you to you all.

Always taking the best care of my Nan, her mood and general wellbeing has really improved since her moving in which I think is a mixture of factors but largely how kind the staff are and how comfortable she is there

Having had several weeks of respite care, I can thoroughly recommend Colne View. The staff are caring and very supportive and nothing is too much trouble. I came home rested, full of energy and feeling very fit. Thank you to the Colne View team.

My mother lived at Colne View for 18 months. Sadly she passed away last week at the age of 96. It took her a while to settle in as she was a very independent woman, but the staff picked up on how best to handle her and she ended up being very happy there.
The care she received was exemplary and
all the staff were extremely kind and caring.
Thanks for looking after so well, it gave me huge peace of mind.

My respite stay was beyond my expectations. The carers & the food are all excellent.

My 94 year old mother moved into Colne View in August following a fall at home . We are so impressed with every aspect of the home. The bedrooms are beautifully furnished and are very spacious. There are several lovely lounge areas where we are able to sit with mum for a chat and also a fabulous
coffee shop. Everywhere is spotlessly clean and tidy . It really is home from home. We cannot praise the staff highly enough , everyone is so friendly and caring , nothing is too much trouble and mum has settled in very well. We would highly recommend Colne View, who have welcomed us all as a family. They have made the move for mum an extremely easy and pleasant experience. Well done to all at Colne View !

Absolutely love the home. The staff are so caring, friendly and very helpful, always ready to help out. Their training speaks volumes about their approach and how they deal with some very testing situations. I'm so glad that we moved my mum to this residential home as I can see a massive difference
in her wellbeing.
Big thanks to everyone who have helped and supported my mum so far.

My Mum was happy in Colne View. She was there for 11 years. The staff were wonderful and took great care of her over the years. They knew her well and also knew us, her family. We always felt very welcome. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Colne View to anyone.

My mum moved to Colne View when the effects of dementia stopped her living independently. She lived here happily for 11 years until she passed away 2 weeks ago. The staff are always very welcoming, kind and helpful and the care, love and respect my Mum was treated with over those years was
excellent.

I visited my dear friend for the first time since she took up residence last month. Many reviews on here have praised the home and I would agree completely. I enjoyed the visit and very much looking forward to the next when I can take my little dog in to sit with my friend whilst we listen to the
radio. I am totally reassured that she lives in a kind and caring community. Many thanks for your hard work

My mother has been at Colne View for a couple of months. My sister & I have found everyone very welcoming, friendly and helpful. It's been a difficult transition & an emotional one but we feel we are understood with our concerns and listened to.

My sister was admitted to Colne View two days after being discharged from an area hospital in a very frail, fragile and unhappy state. She required dedicated nursing care and I was unable to provide that at home. It was a crisis situation for us.
Colne View responded quickly to my urgent request;
they provided a wheel chair, arranged a suitable taxi, and admitted her immediately. I was extremely grateful. They provided excellent care for what were to be - sadly - the last few days of my sister's life. She was finally pain free, her nausea controlled, and she was comfortable and at peace. She was tired and sleepy but demonstrably herself, even cracking a few gentle jokes with my son and I who were with her in that last day.
I shall be eternally grateful to the dedicated staff who nursed her those last few days, and the administrative staff who made admission very straightforward, and to everyone who provided thoughtful and caring support to my sister and also to my family. Thank you.

There are a lot of activities for residents, nice coffee shop to use with residents and all staff members are very welcoming. Bright and clean environment.

My mother in law has been in Colne View for about 4 months. We couldn't be more pleased with the care and attention she is receiving. Her life has greatly improved since moving in, she goes to almost all of the activities and says the meals are always lovely. All the carers and staff are always
pleasant and attentive.

I love coming to Colne View, joining in the activities. I believe it is a very caring and friendly place. The staff are very friendly and I find it very uplifting to mix with the residents in their activities, including dementia choir, dementia dance, crafty nannas and daisy cafe.

I have been visiting this home for over 2 years now and have always been very impressed by the warm welcome I receive every time. The staff are very caring and always alert to the residents needs. The various activities are well thought out to cater for the residents needs. There is fun and laughter
as well as a thoughtfulness for the residents. We are very lucky to have this Care Home in the area.
