Initially I took Mum to the Red House for day care and respite for my Dad. The staff were and still are amazing. So caring and professional. Mum was treated like one of the family, I dont think praise can come much higher than that!
All the residents seem happy and there is a full activity
schedule. The home has animals, singers, musicians and entertainers to keep the residents entertained. The home is clean, without that smell you can experience in other care homes. Full credit here to the management and cleaning staff.
I cannot single out any one individual for recognition, as everyone is truly special.
Yes the home could do with some updating and cosmetic improvements and I understand that the new owners are looking into this. That said it doesn't distract from the overall positive experience. The Red House is then, highly recommended.

A very homely environment which was very important and part of the reason for choosing the Red House. Wonderful activities throughout the week which have helped Mum to be more active and no longer isolated as she was at home. She always has someone to talk to now. She has settled in well.
I
struggle with knowing the best way to communicate with he team except when I visit. I am never quite sure what Mum has been doing on a daily basis and wondered how this could be improved.
Mum is very happy here and that is what is most important to us as a family. Thank you

Our Dad is very well cared for at The Red House. We know that he is loved by the staff who know him very well and are very tolerant in some difficult times. Dad has a lovely room that has been adapted for him and he has lots of opportunities for activities - that he is encouraged to do but only if
he wants to take part. Dad is well cared for in terms of his medical needs and staff are pro-active and communicative. The Red House has an active social media page and we love seeing all the planned activities and the photos and videos on there - this is so valuable to us. The food is also wonderful. Thank you to all the team.

As soon as I walked through the front door of Red House I knew it was the right care home to choose for my friend. She is very well looked after and safe at Red House. The staff are very friendly and helpful and nothing is too much trouble. My friend has special dietary needs and these needs are met
with a good and varied diet. There are lots of activities throughout the week which my friend enjoys. My friend often tells me how caring the staff are and that she is happy and well looked after at Red House.

My dad has been in the Red House for over 2 years - initially as a day resident and respite and then as a full time resident. The team are all amazing. The personalised care they provide, knowing their residents, focussing their approach on the individuals needs. This care also extends to the family
- they recognise how difficult it can be when a family member gets to the point of needing such a setting. The events they organise throughout the year, the meals, cakes and the choice is great. Thank you

My mum was given residency after a bad fall she was made welcome from day one and has been very well cared for the rooms are well equipped all the staff are friendly and helpful Sarah the manager always takes time to speak to all residents which is a nice touch and makes them feel at home. The rooms
are very nice and well maintained as is the whole place.

Very friendly atmosphere as soon as you walk in the door - feels like "home" straightaway. Care very good - nothing is too much trouble! Staff very friendly and obliging. Rooms very comfortable, (although mine does not get Wi-Fi and I have to go downstairs to use the internet, but I understand this
will be rectified sometime in the future). Very clean and facilities very good. Various activities - no danger of getting bored.

The Red House has met all expectations without exception. It has always had a well-respected reputation, and I can confirm that my mother is very happy here.
17 January 2022
Very happy that my father has such a beautiful room with great views, in a lovely location. Very attentive staff. The minibus is a great addition and can take him to hospital appointments. The home appears progressive, allowing my father a virtual assistant technology device in his room and a coffee
making machine. All in all, we feel that during the current pandemic, the home is performing excellently.
17 January 2022
My mum had a wonderful respite stay at The Red House. The staff were so attentive and nothing was too much trouble. They were always happy and helpful. The meals and food, in general, were delicious and cooked on the premises. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend anyone to stay here. Thank you, it was
much appreciated knowing that mum was in such good hands.

The standard of care and support is excellent. I would have no hesitation in recommending it.
23 October 2020
Very caring staff and manager.
01 October 2020
Recognising that she was in the early stages of dementia my mother chose to give up living alone in her bungalow. The Red House has been the perfect solution for my mother's needs. The en-suite room is ideal for making her feel comfortable. Even before lockdown, it was very clear that everything
about the Red House particularly the staff is dedicated to putting the resident's needs and requirements first. It is always a joy to visit my mother as I' always made very welcome and it is clear that my mother is contented.

My father and I have had to meet outdoors on the last few occasions due to the Covid-19 outbreak. We were still made to feel comfortable and the staff were on hand if we needed anything. I have nothing but praise for the way the home manager reacted to the Covid-19 outbreak. Her swift and decisive
action has ensured the home has stayed Covid-19 safe.
14 September 2020
A lovely peaceful care home with very happy residents. The manager and staff are so professional and caring. They have gone beyond during this period of isolation to ensure all the residents are kept motivated and entertained. My mother says she felt at home here from her very first day.
02 September 2020
I visited my grandfather recently and was very pleased with the measures in place during the pandemic. We were able to see him outdoors with a 2-meter distance. The staff are always friendly, and the residents seem well looked after.
I asked my grandfather how he felt there, and he said he was very
happy with the care, and that he was fed well! They go out of their way to make them feel special on birthdays and occasions too.
He also spoke of the lovely views which can be enjoyed. I would recommend it to others as I have only ever heard good things about it.

My dear Mum has been at The Red House for a couple of years, and it is the only place where she has settled, felt safe and well cared for, and Mum tried several other homes but never settled. It is a small residential home that feels like a normal home. I don’t live locally, so it is so reassuring
to know that Mum is well cared for and the manager is so kind and approachable. She was able to work Mum out from the outset, which is why Mum is getting the care that works for her, which is such a huge relief. The staff work extremely hard to make the experience of the residents a happy one.
02 September 2020
My dad was at another care home before this, which was terrible, so we looked at Red House; it was perfect. Very friendly and welcoming, the staff are lovely, and I truly believe my dad would not be around now, if not for the care and support he gets from everyone at Red House. He is extremely
comfortable and well looked after. I would not hesitate in recommending Red House to anyone.
28 August 2020
Lovely homely atmosphere and all residents treated as individuals.
Good range of entertainment and activities provided. Friendly and approachable staff who have provided amazing care during the Covid-19 crisis. My grandmother can have some challenging behaviour at times and they always seem to
manager her with patience and care.
04 August 2020
I can't praise the staff enough for the tremendously hard work they put in for the care of the residents at The Red House, they provide excellent activities to help stimulate the residents and go above and beyond to keep the residents entertained. I know it's been a difficult time for all with the
Coronavirus, but they have kept everyone safe and well and their system for allowing visitors outside with 2 metres distancing to see the residents has been fantastic, which I am sure they have all needed. Can't praise the staff enough for their care and attention.
