Following a fall and a stay in hospital, it became clear that my Mam was no longer safe to return to her own home. Finding a care home is a daunting experience, as it's such an important responsibility to choose somewhere she will be safe, happy and well cared for.
From my very first visit, I
knew I had found the right place.
She has settled in incredibly well and regularly tells me how happy she is. Her room is comfortable, there's a timetable of activities she can join in with if she wishes, and the food is lovely. The staff are all wonderful - kind, supportive and genuinely caring.
I now have peace of mind knowing she is in a safe and nurturing environment, and I'm very grateful for the excellent care she receives at Eothen Home (Gosforth)

Mother-in-Law has very recently moved into Eothen. Her transfer from a Rehab centre was managed very efficiently with her being made to feel comfortable and welcomed. She is settling in very well which is such a relieve for all of the family. The home is clean and warm. The staff are absolutely
lovely and the residents seem very happy and content. They have been very kind, caring and patient with MiL.
I popped in today (16.12.25) and caught the last part of their Christmas party. The effort made by staff was absolutely outstanding! They were all dressed up, and involved the residents in various activities. It felt like a family party and the residents loved it! It was so nice to see MiL laughing and smiling - she really enjoyed the afternoon. She told me the Christmas lunch was beautiful.
Thank you Team Eothen (Gosforth) - you are all doing an amazing job!

I want to end up in a care home just like this one, the staff are excellent, friendly caring and go above and beyond every single day couldn't say a negative thing about any of them. My father in law is extremely happy there.

for the last few years,she is happy well looked after and like I say I cannot praise all of the staff and management enough for the care they are giving her

What a lovely place! I cannot speak too highly of all of the staff, who all find time to say hello, are totally focussed on the residents, and have the highest standards of care. All of the people there are very content, there is plenty of choice of things to do. The gardens are particularly
beautiful and very well maintained.

My mother moved into Gosforth Eothen permanently a few weeks ago and is settling in well. She'd previously been in for a respite visit last year and had enjoyed it. The home itself is very warm and comfortable with beautiful gardens. The food is lovely, always fresh and healthy with good choices
available. There are daily activities for the residents arranged by a lovely lady called Chris. She clearly loves her job and it shows. All of the staff are extremely caring, kind and patient. They really take the time to listen and do whatever they can to help and support the residents, as well as the families. We are confident that my mother is being well cared and the staff have definitely helped us feel happier about this transition.

The Eothen staff at Gosforth provide top class professional service and as I live over 5 hours away I rely on them for communication with me on all matters related to my mother who is a resident, they do this and communicate excellently and efficiently. This gives me peace of mind and the knowledge
that Mum is in the best place she can be, big thank you to All the staff

What a lovely home. The managers and admin team have been amazingly understanding and super efficient in what has been a difficult time for both mum and ourselves. Mum's move was fast and fuss free. The home itself is lovely and the care team have, without exception, been kind, empathetic and
caring; helping mum to move into her new home with understanding and patience. The home really feels like a big family. Mum is already settling in and is beginning to find her way around with the help of both staff and residents. We have been delighted with everything so far and would like to express our heartfelt thanks to this lovely team.

My Dad has been in this care home for the last 6 weeks and has settled in so well. He has made new friends and thoroughly enjoys all the activities on offer . All the staff do an amazing
Job nothing is to much trouble and always delivered with a smile he's enjoying life again and we have peace
of mind he is in safe hands.
22 September 2025
Dad has had 2 stays of 1 week duration for respite care at Eothen and I was so impressed with the care.
Louise, the manager is approachable and professional and her team provide really personalised care.
On dad's first day there the staff arranged for mam & dad to have lunch together in the
family lounge / dining room, which they both appreciated so much.
The activities coordinator is fantastic, she really encourages everyone to take part, with a range of activities.
The food is home cooked, of really good quality, with lovely home made bite size treats offered mid morning & afternoon.
The rooms are spacious and the home is clean & comfortable, with beautiful grounds, full of colour.
There is a warm and friendly atmosphere in Eothen, which provides great comfort to the residents and their relatives.

Dad has settled really well into Eothen at Gosforth and we are delighted with our choice of care home. We had anticipated more difficulties with the transition from being at home to him being looked after full-time. However, much to our surprise, after less than 2 weeks trial, he told us that he
wanted to stay. He enjoys having his meals cooked for him, he's made new friends, and he joins in with many of the activities. His life seems so much more interesting than sitting at home on his own and fretting about his meals. He does still get confused and repetitive at times but the staff are so caring and patient. And the managers are visible and available if we have any concerns. I can't recommend highly enough!
As one resident said to me, there may be homes that are fancier and more modern but you won't beat Eothen for the friendly atmosphere and quality of care
11 August 2025
My dad is 94 years old and he's been living alone in his home since my mum died in 2011. It became more clear he needed extra care. We knew it was important to find the correct home that suited his varying/increasing needs. In Eothen Homes we have done just that.
We can't believe how blessed we
all are as dad seems to have settled in so well. He seems to have a new lease of life.
Thank you Eothen.
