My wife was in the care home for a respite break, this was her (our) first time of experiencing this aspect of 'caring' and I admit I was a little apprehensive as we have never really 'done apart'. Wow! We have been so happy during her stay. The care home is brilliantly run, all the staff are
excellent. The atmosphere is very friendly and relaxed and this creates a lovely feeling of 'family'. The staff are totally focused and professional in their work with nothing being too much trouble. The catering is of a very high standard, food is wholesome, tasty and is prepared and served very well. It has been a very reassuring stay for my wife and myself. We have been treated most courtesously but most importantly this experience has seen a very positive change to my wife's general health and attitude. Thank you so much.

The home and its staff were exemplary in their care of my mother in law who has moderate dementia.
She was not happy to have to be there for respite but they handled her with patience and diplomacy.
She loved the food and for the first time in a year actually gained a couple of pounds. Her room
was clean and spacious with plenty of storage. We supplied her with a TV in the room.
She loved that the staff all spoke when they saw her that they have a smoking area outside and she was able to have her hair done weekly.
We appreciated that she was safe and well cared for.

Overall the care home is a home from home. The carers are like family to myself & my husband who is a resident. The manager & deputies are very approachable, kitchen & cleaning staff are all so friendly too & nothing is too much trouble.

All staff (management, carers and the cleaners) are the very best, they go the extra mile in keeping residents and visitors happy. I have visited many times and I look forward to a warm welcome. A special mention as well to the cooks and the entertainment ladies.

My father has been a resident at Clipstone Hall & Lodge now for several months, and as of yet, I have nothing but praise for all of the staff involved in his care. He has settled in very well, which is a big relief to all the family. A special thank you to the door lady and the nurse.

Before my mother came to Clipstone Hall & Lodge, I was given advice on procedures. Communications between myself and the admin staff were excellent. (My mother was being transferred from another home). The rooms are good sizes and furnished adequately. The food is of a high standard wtih a good
variety of menus daily. My mother has never been a people person, but the staff are encouraging and always engage with her. She now classes Clipstone as her home where as before she always wanted to live somewhere else. I had been recommended Clipstone from a friend who's husband resided there. Compared to other homes Clipstone is good value for money!

Dad came in for a weeks respite care to give my mum a break from caring for him at home.
From the first enquiry about his stay, during his stay, staff were extremely helpful, informative and friendly.
Dad received first class professional care. All meals freshly prepared with a good choice of
menu. The rooms, in fact everywhere is kept spotlessly clean.

I am sure my friend feels very safe in the home which is very satisfying.
06 March 2025
The staff are very proficient and extremely caring. Whenever my father has an issue they are quick to notify me. My father's needs are very complex and he is unable to communicate effectively, however the carers have taken the time to work with him, to understand what he wants and how best to look
after him. I could not wish for my father to be cared for any more than he is. The staff (carers, cleaners, cooks, admin's) are wonderful and it is plain to see that they really do care about the residents. I would not hesitate to recommend this establishment.

I cannot recommend this care home enough. My dad has had an amazing final 9 months. The care staff absolutely exceptional at all times. They are caring and attentive to all needs. Above and beyond at all times! Exceptional food always offered, clothes kept well and all needs catered for. Brilliant
activities programme and Christmas was such a fun time with different things happening every day. I cannot thank them enough.
