This care home is exceedingly well-run by the manager who is always ready to listen to any concerns regarding the residents' welfare. What is important is the relaxed environment maintained by the staff and where visitors are always welcome. I am very happy that my brother is living here.

Dad has been at Milkwood since January 2025. He quickly settled. Carers at the home are excellent and there is very good communication between us and the team. Activities are well planned and engaging for the residents. Dad has always enjoyed the trips out in the minibus with Tash.

My mother needed respite care a couple of years ago, and stayed in Milkwood for 6 weeks. When she needed a permanent facility earlier this year, Milkwood was the first place I wanted her to go. The staff are so kind and patient with her, despite her often awkward, dementia driven, behaviour, and
will always try to distract her from sad moments. They clearly care for their residents and I love the amount of different activities they do. It gave me a big smile to see my mum dancing on TikTok!

Fantastic care home. My mother is very well cared for in very way. Excellent staff, very clean and always very attentive. The mini bus is a great asset for getting the residents out and about. I would highly recommend to friends and family.

From May of this year 2025 my mother was admitted to Milkwood fragile and in poor health. Since she has been there the improvement has been wonderful.
Engaging with everyone, happy and life for her has improved immensely.
As a family this is so wonderful to see her spirit return and enjoying
life again.
A big thank you to all at Milkwood.

The Milkwood House team have been fantastic in terms of care for my mother. As the next of kin I deeply appreciate the safe, caring, wonderful environment they have created. Perhaps as important (as caring for my mother) is the communication to me, and the professional decision making responsibility
they have taken on, which reduces my level of stress and anxiety at a key time in my mothers life. Thank you Jack & the Milkwood team!

I couldn't ask for a better care home for my mum. The staff and management are excellent and genuinely care for her and are extremely helpful.
I couldn't wish for a better home for my mum having worked in care and having visited various homes l can genuinely say Milkwood is the best and l am so
lucky she is there.

From the first time I viewed Milkwood for my relatively young husband with Alzheimers I was met by welcoming staff. As I walked around the home I noticed that residents looked happy and well cared for. Run by a kind approachable Manager with caring friendly staff. In the past few months my husband
has settled well, comfy clean room, lovely food and encouraged to participate in a varied timetable of activities run by a great Activity Team. Also nice safe garden to wander around in. The whole place feels safe, warm and friendly.

Milkwood Home is happy and welcoming place. The facilities are good but what really makes it stand out is the staff. The Activities team go over and above to take the residents out in the local area. They make the effort to do this even if only one or two residents wish to go. They always sit with
the residents and help them enjoy the activity rather than just facilitating it.
The team of carers also need a mention, most give a very high standard of care, and always take the time to have a chat with the residents, making sure they feel valued and listened to. The food is of a very high standard.
The car park is a negative. The gravel is wholly inappropriate for wheelchair use. It must be difficult for staff but near impossible if residents are coming and going with other elderly visitors.

We looked at several homes before we came across Milkwood House for our 93 year old mother and we immediately knew it was the right one for her and us.
During the 18 months mum was there, she was always treated with the best care and the staff always took the trouble to interact with her and cheer
her up if she was having a bad day. Her dementia made her tricky to deal with at times but everyone I saw was patient and kind irrespective of her sometimes awkward behaviour!
It turned into the sort of 'home' mum needed and you would be hard pressed to find a more compassionate environment.
I have no hesitation in recommending them.

Having arrived at Milkwood feeling rather nervous and sad, I found the staff very friendly, supportive and encouraging. Many of them have almost become my friends I feel so relaxed with them. I am no longer nervous and feel very safe and at home in my room. Sometimes it takes a while to get used to
different accents.
07 April 2025
From the moment I first visited Milkwood 6 months ago, to assess it for my brother's care, I felt that he and I were among friends. The staff took time to talk about my brother's situation, show me round the home and introduce me to the team (not always true in other establishments I visited !) and
when I explained that I was due to see half a dozen more homes I was assured: "You will know when you've found the right one."
I left knowing that I had.
My brother is comfortable and well cared for. He likes his own space and the staff understand and respect that but keep an unobtrusive eye on his needs nonetheless. They are patient and caring and appear to totally get his sense of humour.
And Christmas lunch was 5-star !!

Mum has been in Milkwood House for 14months now and settled in well from day one. She has a lovely cosy room, with a few of her things from home. She is always encouraged to spend all her time in the lounge- I really value this, as she always has company, even if she is not able to chat much, it
means there is always something going on to observe. The separate dining room with tables of 4, all laid out like a restaurant table makes residents' meal times special. Staff are very friendly to her.
01 April 2025
My mum arrived at Milkwood House in late January. For the previous three years she had lived alone in sheltered accommodation.
She had become very bored and depressed in her flat, really retreating into her shell.
She had broken her wrist at Christmas and following a spell in hospital and respite
care we decided that she required more care and support than she had been getting.
Milkwood was one of three homes we were recommended to. Just reading the reviews showed Milkwood as being the outstanding one by a country mile.
I turned up and was shown around by a member of staff and it was immediately clear that she loved her job. She explained that residents are referred to as family. 'We are all family here'.
Since Mum arrived it has been like night and day. We have not seen her this happy for about the last five years. She is getting involved in activities often with a wonderful member off staff and is regularly on their Facebook page!
Thank You to the manager and the team. Brilliant job all round!

Sadly our mother has dementia and it progressed to such a degree that she needed 24 hour care . My brother & I reviewed a number of care homes and Milkwood came out on top. This was for many reasons.The friendly environment suited our mother and seemed like a home from home .The carers came across
as very committed and dedicated to the job they do. We were impressed with the standards of cleanliness and the facilities. The range of activities available
to resident's is excellent .We know we made the right choice for our mom and would recommend Milkwood without any reservations.

My uncle , "the magician", spent the last year of his life in Milkwood. He was very happy there, in spite of his quickly increasing dementia ,and loved to entertain folks with his amazing card tricks.
The staff were very always friendly and caring and I was always kept informed of what was going on
.
I was immensely impressed by the amount of different activities that went on at Millwood,even though my uncle couldn't always participate in them.
Very sadly he passed away earlier this year but he couldn't have had better care anywhere.
Thank you so much to the manager and your lovely team.
I'm sure wherever his spirit is ,my uncle is still busy doing his card tricks!

I had my reservations of my dad coming to Milkwood as I had not heard good things however I went with it and gave them a try. To my surprise the manager and his team have always been very welcoming to me and my family and have done everything in their power to support my dad and his additional
needs. I have watch my dad thrive since moving here as he is now engaged in conversations and activities. I miss my dad being at home but here is the next best thing.
28 March 2025
My mother had been at Milkwood Care Home for several mothers now the care she is receiving is second to none the staff are absolutely amazing with her and we are kept up to date from the admin staff . Highly recommend.
