The Links manager and staff have always been friendly, helpful and professional from the first visit, through wife's death and settling into home and finally David's death in Decemeber. Our wishes and requests were acted on quickly and sensitively. David settled well and was always grateful for such
a nice place to live. Friends and family always felt welcomed for visits anytime. David was encouraged to join in with activities and had some fun times both in the home and on outings. Thank you all at The Links for everything you did.

My mother was a resident at the Bupa The Links Care Home for 3 years until her death. She received very good care, and the staff were all very caring and supportive during her final years. Mum truly appreciated the lovely staff, and felt safe and relaxed. The staff were also very supportive of our
family. The staff have our gratitude.

My mum has been a resident here for almost 3yrs. The Links (golf) is the most amazing care home. Staff are attentive and caring, ensuring my mum is always happy and comfortable.
Everyday there are great activities/entertainment at 2pm following lunch. The food is very good indeed too.

My wife was taken into care in December 2023 when her dimentia had gone beyond my ability to take care of her.
Links staff worked hard to assess the elements of her care needs and involved the family in working in her needs.
Myself and our two daughters have attended Links at least five times a
week and have when necessary brought her changing needs to their attention and which they have always responded to.

Husband settled well into home environment. Staff have been very supportive to both of us. Very willing to listen and act upon any concerns we have.

We've always found all the staff extremely helpful and friendly and very supportive to my mums needs. Although my mum doesn't get involved, there are plenty of varied activities going on most days. The food menu provides plenty of choice and if there is nothing on the menu that my mum likes the
chef can provide a variety of other options.

My wife has alzheimers dementia and goes to The Links weekly for day care. All the staff including admin staff welcome her by name and she responds to them. She is always happy to be there and when I collect her in the evening she usually seems content.

My dad has been living at The Links for a year now and he has been very well cared for. Everyone at The Links has played their part in making him feel comfortable, settled and safe. He is always treated with dignity & patience. All staff take time to chat with him including housekeeping, maintenance
and catering staff. He really enjoys the programme of social activities - there is always something happening each day, including music, entertainment. He really enjoys the keep fit sessions. Thanks to two members of staff in particular's efforts he has been able to go on some of the outings in the local area. A recent highlight was a boat trip and the harbour in a wheelchair friendly boat. Incredible was how he described it. Many thanks xxx

All the staff from the management team down to the cleaners treat my mum and myself with care and respect. They have supported me when I have needed answers re care and signposted me to the right agencies to get that support if unable to provide it themselves.
All the carers and nursing staff know
my name, and recently, the activities team helped provide mum with a 90th birthday party.
Photos go on their social media page so my sister, who lives far away, can be part of mum's life still

All I can say is exceptional in everything that they do.

I visited my husband for six months. All the staff were most kind, caring and helpful at all times. The nursing staff and carers treated him with the utmost respect and kindness. My family and I are most grateful for their every thoughtfulness and caring.
15 April 2025
My husband had a 3 week respite stay while our daughter, who helps us, had a 3 week holiday in Australia and I had a break at home. He was reluctant at first as it was 'the unknown' but soon settled and was very well looked after by caring and professional staff. I was happy to know he was safe and
would certainly call on them again if I needed to.

The Links is like a 5-star hotel. Happy, friendly atmosphere. Staff are lovely and so are the home-cooked cakes. My friend says the food is good and she likes all the staff. A good programme of activities.

My brother was admitted to The Links Care Home for palliative and end- of- life care. His stay was short, but during his time there we visited him every day, where we found the staff to be excellent, always on hand to answer our questions and to give my brother the best possible care.

Mum moved to The Links four and a half years ago during the first COVID lockdown. She suffered from dementia and at first found it hard to settle but with the help and care of the staff she adapted well to her new home. She joined in the many activities provided and all of the staff were kind and
caring towards her. They managed her condition well through the different stages and it was always a comfort to see Mum with a smile on her face and having a giggle. I can't thank The Links enough for looking after Mum through those difficult years and for their care and compassion up to and during her passing.

Dad was admitted to The Links for palliative and end-of-life care. From the initial assessment by the Manager to the day of his death, I cannot praise all of the staff enough. They took time to get to know Dad and treated him with such care, respect and dignity. We know that at times they were
busy but they still managed to maintain a calm and relaxed atmosphere, stop for a supportive chat or update on Dad's condition. Although Dad was too unwell to take part in group activities, I observed other residents obviously enjoying taking part as I passed by the lounge, but staff took the time, when he was up to it, to sit and chat or go through his family photo album with him. We felt comforted by seeing how they adapted their care as he deteriorated and their end-of-life care was excellent. BUPA should feel very proud of The Links.

The staff are friendly, approachable, calm, organised and 'resident-centred'. They create a relaxed atmosphere. They take the time to get to know the residents. Communication is excellent and efficient. My dad has settled in really well and has been treated with care, respect and dignity.
