St Leonards is run very well and has a real family feel about it , all the staff are friendly caring and go the extra mile in looking after my loved one,
Activities are great especially the singers to which most of the residents sing along.
I'm always kept updated with anything I need to be made
aware of in regards to my mother.

My godfather was sent on discharge from hospital. He and I have found the staff absolutely wonderful. Nothing is too much trouble and they take time to talk and listen to concerns of residents and visitors. They do everything they can to make residents feel loved and cared for. They are kind and
encourage all to take part in the activities on offer. My godfather is going on a visit to the cathedral, he wasn't sure about going, but the staff took time to put his mind at rest about the worries he had, small, caring home, highly recommended.

As always, my visits to my wife are notable for the friendliness of the staff and the lengths to which they go to keep her clean, warm, and comfortable. Her room, and the communal areas, are kept clean and tidy, and the general atmosphere of the home is good.
22 January 2026
On our last visit we were impressed by the care and attention afforded to both residents and us visitors.
Additionally the residents are treated many times a week to visits from external groups and have regular activities - these being made visible to relations via social media.
09 January 2026
The level of care is above excellent, every staff member is so kind and compassionate to all residents. The activities are just right for the level of concentration needed, and is alway a pleasure to visit.

The home was at a loss fora while lack of leadership. There has been a big improvement over the past few months with the new management team. Would like to see more things going on at weekends for the residents and more one to one interaction for the ones that dont join in with group activites or
have limited mobilty. The cleaning has improved but would like to see side tables washed more regularly. The carers are amazing a mix of ages and experince. Food is a bit hit and miss but manager aware and trying to improve.

I found this care home very friendly, and the care my mother receives is excellent. I have been unable to visit very often due to cancer treatment, so they keep me updated on events and any treatments my mum might need. They are extremely caring and professional. Mum's enjoying it too.
31 January 2024
Welcoming and friendly. It is a happy atmosphere, and the staff are very caring to all residents. An excellent programme of activities and says much that the volunteers who come in, especially those who provide musical entertainment - are happy to come in on a regular basis.

My husband is at St Leonards for respite and is so happy. He has settled in and is enjoying his stay. The managers and care staff couldn't be more helpful.
26 January 2024
The staff do a brilliant job but need a few more staff as sometimes there's only one staff on at one time. The meals they get are very good, but I do think they need more drinks in a day than what they are getting. One big disappointment is the garden; it needs a lot of work doing to it, and the
fencing wants redoing.

My dad is very happy here, the food is very good and plentiful. The staff are friendly and caring and do their very best for my dad and all the other residents. The staff listen to any concerns raised and show a genuine interest. The activities coordinator is very good and also does a hair dressing
service as well as hand and nails being washed, cut and painted. They all do a fantastic job under pressure, as sometimes staffing levels can be low and challenging.
25 October 2023
The staff are friendly and caring despite working in a difficult career. The staff turnover is worrying and I'm concerned that results in a lack of understanding of individuals' needs.
05 October 2023
Lovely afternoon spending time with my auntie. Lovely, friendly staff, well-looked after residents.
04 October 2023
The staff are super friendly and very kind and caring to the residents and visitors. I am always made welcome when I come to visit. The residents are well looked after and someone is always around if you need to ask about anything.

My husband is very happy here.
Good food.

Staff are very good.

My partner has been very well looked after during his respite stay (now two months). The staff are so caring, they are wonderful. He seems content to be there and I hope it will become permanent.
30 January 2023
My uncle has been a resident at St Leonards Court for three and a half years. He is very comfortable living here and regards it as his home. The carers provide a very good service in looking after him and meeting his needs. My uncle is treated with respect, and his dignity is maintained. I recommend
this care home.
19 January 2023
Have been very pleased with the care the staff have shown how caring and patient they have been with my dad.
Dad has settled in very well and enjoys being there.
14 July 2022
On admission, February 2021, we were given the impression by the then manager that the home was "run on fun and laughter"! This seemed ideal for Mum. Obviously, the pandemic severely impacted this, plus staff recruitment issues. Mum had a difficult first year - many falls, monitoring her welfare and
health was difficult for us, and not having any prior experience in choosing a care home, knowing what to expect meant we spent that year constantly worried. The new manager has subsequently done really well trying to address our concerns - the general upkeep of the interior and garden was improved. We wanted more activities, more staff and better liaison with relatives. We would like more one-to-one quality time with Mum and a staff member for her to get out into the village more. We have found other residents in her room whilst she's in the lounge and items missing for weeks (glasses, teeth, slippers, which seem trivial, but important part of her care package). We do, however, appreciate all residents have forms of dementia and staff shortages made monitoring difficult. All staff are kind and tender with Mum.
