My mum has been at Abafields around 4 months now and has settled in really well, all the staff and management have been really friendly and supportive with my mum and myself keeping me upto date with all aspect of her care and how she is settling in, they are all a credit to Abafields.
The home is
an old building and I can see that a number of improvements are currently ongoing to improve standards further. My mum has confirmed on a number of occasions how well she is being care for which is really reassuring at a difficult time of her life. Thanks to all concerned.

My mother was a resident initially respite however became permatly at abafields residential home. She was very happy with her room and her time at abafields. She enjoyed the activities and the food however unfortunately for myself she became ill quite quickly and was bedboud for a time until she
passed away. My brother was also very impressed with the home and very grateful for the care my mother recieved and would recommend the home to others

My mum moved into Abafields in November 2025 and she absolutely loves it here. All the staff are incredibly supportive to both me and mum and family they reassure us on everything that we need to know. The staff are absolutely brilliant, very polite, & helpful in every way. The rooms are spacious
and clean. Abafields also do different activities for the residents.

Mum has been a resident her since April 2020, she well cared for and seems very happy. Any issues we have had have been dealt with in a timely manner. Communication between ourselves, management and staff is excellent. It is good to see improvements being made to the home, with as little disruption
as possible to residents. We as a family are very happy that mum has a place here. She is always treated with dignity and respect. Thank you to all the staff at Abafields.

The management is excellent and always approachable. I am continually impressed and pleased with the welcome I always get from the staff. They are courteous and pleasant and are happy to have a quick word or ask for a quick chat about the resident you are visiting. The staff work hard to ensure all
residents are cared for (some needing more help than others), and yet their approach shows efficiency, dignity, understanding and support. I am always asked how I am and would I like a drink. Staff who come through the area where I am sitting always acknowledge me. The facilities have recently been upgraded and further work is planned I understand. Abafields is a friendly home where there is a 'homely' atmosphere and the quality and level of care is excellent. It is a place where residents feel secure and supported. My friend is happy here and has a good rapport with the staff. I enjoy my visits every week.

My dad also lived here for 18 months + he loved it too, very much!
The whole place is filled with lovely staff
who can never do enough for u! Nothing is too small, they are absolutely wonderful!
Anything my mum or myself has needed clarification on, or advice on, they have listened + been helpful + kind no matter how many times we've asked questions.
The home is lovely + welcoming, my mum settled in within a day + I love visiting as they are like one big happy family!
I couldn't praise enough, how easy this transition for mum was, she is so comfortable + happy!

My father has lived in Abafields for 11 months and is very happy. The staff are very friendly, caring and professional. The building has recently been refurbished and new fixtures and fittings. My father enjoys all his meals and the menu is changed on a regular basis. I would highly recommend the
care home to others.

My mum has been in Abafields for 22 months due to dementia. The home is well run the staff are warm friendly caring and are very professional. Good communication with all staff members. Lots of activities, safe environment, good quality meals. My mum is very happy and well looked after at Abafields.
01 December 2025
My Nan is currently a resident here, and I can't praise the staff enough. The care that they show to the residents is second to none, especially two members of staff that my Nan is very fond of. They even extend their care to you, always greeted with a smile and the offer of a cup of tea which is a
lovely touch. The home is always clean and well kept, and most importantly my Nan is always happy. Other residents also look well looked after. We're always kept up to date and the staff are answer on hand to answer any questions. A big thank you to all.

My Brother David has lived in a few good Care Homes in the Bolton area over a number of years. However, he has never been happier than he is since moving to Abbeyfield. The building is currently being renovated, but that is not as important as the actual care he receives from all who work at the
Home. I can honestly say that all the Care Staff, Managers, and Support workers are very pleasant, kind, professional and caring.
I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Abbeyfield Care Home. 10 out of 10.
09 July 2020
My sister was resident here during the last months of her life, due to the pandemic I was unable to visit, but if I called to arrange a time I could speak to her and her daughters kept me updated and assured me she was being looked after fantastically.
19 May 2020
The home is bright, clean and very well run. The staff are always ready to listen and care for clients. The building and gardens are well maintained, as are residents rooms. Kitchen and food are of good quality. Mum has been at the home for almost 5-years, and improvements have been made in all
areas. Great place for Mum to live in.
19 May 2020
My mum has been a resident at Abafields since August 2019, and we are so happy with the tender loving care she has received continuously. Her every need is met all the times. The staff and management are the best you could ever ask for, especially in the current situation of COVID-19, ensuring all
residents and staff members are safe, well and entertained all the times. I would highly recommend this home to any families that are struggling, as we did in knowing they can no longer care for their loved one themselves. The building may not be the most modern, but it is very well suited to the age group it serves and makes them feel more at home.
19 August 2019
My dad recently moved to Abafields, I cannot praise them enough, dad settled really well, is obviously well looked after, he looks great and enjoying the food.
10 June 2019
My grandma was admitted to Abafields following the deterioration of her health, she was only in the home for five weeks as she needed end of life care. From the minute she arrived at the home, she was treated with dignity and respect.
Her room was comfortable and the care she was provided with was
excellent, not just by the carers but cleaners and kitchen staff as well.
Staff at the home made what was a very sad time for us as a family, a lot more pleasant, both managers were always available to answer any questions and provided guidance to our family when needed.
Sadly Gran passed away on New Year’s Day. During those last few days, the staff not only cared for my Gran but also my family and we are extremely grateful to all the staff in the home for this.
I would definitely recommend this home.

My mum is very happy at Abafields. She has settled in well and is making friends. She thinks the staff are wonderful and can't fault the food.
I am very happy with the care my mum is receiving and the home is committed to helping residents socialise and to provide events and activities.
11 April 2018
Very nice home. We looked at 4 homes in the area before we chose Abafields. It has a relaxed and family-like atmosphere. Toilets are exceptionally clean, I personally checked! This home is not very big and does not have this “institutional” chain care home feeling where the staff does not know the
residents in all fairness I can say that management and staff are warm and caring. It has a real family atmosphere and we are happy with our choice and my nannan is happy here.
10 April 2018
I have been a number of times over the last few months to visit a family friend. All the care home staff are very friendly and always attentive to the needs of the residents.
I have also noticed the care home has been modified over the last few months with new floors, decor and new technology. I
would have no hesitation sending a relative here when the time comes.
09 April 2018
My Uncle was placed here 6 months ago and I visit him occasionally once a month since he came here as a private resident. I can say that it was a good home in general but not perfect. There has been a change of management. At first, I was worried that it would lose its standards but 3 months after
the changes happen, I can say that my concern was unfounded. The manager is caring, attentive and approachable. She simply listens. Some of the staff has also changed since then and this has been a good thing. The food and the overall care is better in my opinion. Meanwhile, on my last visit, I was surprised to see that there has been a huge new decoration activity that made care home brighter and a positively more desirable place to be. The overall atmosphere is pleasant with many smiles. Also, they got a new home pet: A pure breed puppy bulldog for residents to enjoy. His name is Ronnie. He is adorable... Thank you for the care of my uncle.
06 April 2018
My friend stayed here for a few months and we are impressed with the new decoration that has just been completed. Everywhere looks bright, new and nice. The new manager was very accommodating and caring with high standards. Nothing was too much to ask. The food is good and the atmosphere is very
positive. If you have respite or long-term needs, I recommend at least a visit to see the place yourself.
