I came to visit my friend's mam who is staying for 2 weeks' respite care. I was pleasantly surprised by the home, the way it was run, the cleanliness, the way the residents were treated and the sheer amount of activities and nice things going on each day. This is important to keep the residents'
brains active. Some of the ladies were proud to show off their painted nails! Keep up the good work.

The staff are super friendly, dedicated and caring. My relative speaks highly of both day and night shift staff, and we have no complaints about how he is cared for.

I find everyone very helpfull.

The staff are wonderful, happy to be there, happy to help, and they genuinely care for their residents. I can see that the staff are tailoring the care for individuals. Lots of time and attention are dedicated to entertaining and stimulating the residents. Families are actively encouraged to join in
the activities, creating memories. Good food is served, and good care is taken over my mother's appearance.
Abbotsfield is a very pleasant place, and we are delighted with the level of dedication and love shown by the staff.

Mum is well looked after. Activities are well organised, and a variety of options are available.
Televisions in the bedrooms - there is an absence of remote controllers, it is difficult to work out how to use the television.

Always a warm welcome the minute you step inside the door. I am impressed by the varying daily activities that seem to be enjoyed by the residents. My Brother has had a difficult year and he now settled.

We are obviously very anxious about our dad coming into Abbotsfield. We need not have worried at all. The staff are thorough and efficient, caring, kind and attentive. Our dad is happy, relaxed and safe. A home from home. It is a clean, beautiful building with a fantastic mix of residents. Dad joins
in the activities and is much more sociable than he ever was at home on his own. Thank you to the Abbotsfield staff, you have made our family a much happier one!

Visit regularly and always find the home in a tidy and clean condition. The staff are friendly and helpful towards myself and the residents. The manager is always available and helpful with any assistance I may need.

Overall, I am delighted with the care support my mum receives. The staff are loving and caring, and we are made to feel part of the family. All the staff are very welcoming and you always feel like nothing is too much trouble.
The food always seems varied and nutritious. Abbotsfield is well
maintained and always spotlessly clean. Mum's room is lovely and has a nice view, but it would be nice if the walls were more colourful. Cannot thank the devoted staff enough. The entertainment, trips and celebration days are fantastic.

We love visiting Barry (Dad), we know he's happy and content and all importantly, safe.
There are plenty of activities, and one is treated with dignity.
The staff are always lovely and welcoming,

Welcoming and friendly staff. Residents are treated with dignity and compassion. Plenty of activities and very good food. Dad has really settled here after a difficult few months, and we are relieved that he feels safe and 'at home'.

Today was such a sad day as my dad who was a resident here for last 18mths with dementia had to move on to a Nursing Home. During dads time here his care and communication from staff has been fantastic. He was treated with loving care, dignity and respect. He settled straight away and made new
friends and loved the staff. Staff are all lovely, friendly and very welcoming to all families. We are all going to miss Abbotsfield and the staff so much. Thank you all for everything you do. Such a fantastic, hard working, caring team.

My mother was a resident here from May 2023 until her death in January 2025. The care she received from the staff was second to none, especially during the last 2 months of her life when she required palliative end-of-life care. Two sensor staff and three other staff came to her funeral church
service. They showed my mam and our family genuine care and support, as did the local manager at the home. Nothing was too much trouble.

In January this year we had to make the very difficult decision to move my mum in to a care setting following a hospital admission. The staff at Abbotsfield have made this transition so much easier for us as a family and my mum. The care my mum receives is excellent and she is well looked after.
05 April 2024
After a very challenging time, I would like to thank the staff of Abbotsfield Care Home for their care and compassion for my aunt. Living several hours away, it is difficult to see her as much as I wish I could, but the staff have been excellent in keeping me updated with any changes. On my latest
visit, I found her clearly well cared for and content. The staff of Abbotsfield have done an amazing job managing long-term health issues in addition to more challenging new ones, and I feel they always consider my aunt's health and well-being in everything they do. Many thanks.

My mam moved into Abbotsfield in November and we are absolutely delighted with her care.
She is well looked after by incredibly caring members of staff who have a wonderful relationship with the residents.
It’s a joy to visit my mam at Abbotsfield and we are always welcomed. The staff are
wonderful and very caring and go above and beyond to make sure my mam lives as comfortable life as possible whilst she battles with dementia.
She is very happy here and that makes me happy too knowing that she is cared for and looked after.
The home itself is always clean and tidy and immaculate. The ladies work so hard to make sure the environment for its residents is in very good condition. The lady who does the laundry is wonderful and knows whose clothes belong to who.
I couldn’t ask for a better place for my mam to live. It’s such a comfort knowing she’s happy and well cared for.

Mum has been in Abbotsfield for nearly 2 years. It is friendly, warm and welcoming. The staff take the time to speak to residents and get to know about them and different aspects of their life. The care that has been given to Mum cannot be faulted, it gives myself and the family peace of mind that
she is safe and being well cared for.
04 May 2023
My mum has been a resident here for a few years.
I can not fault the care given to her. The food is very good.
The staff are always nice and caring. My mum loves sitting out in the well-kept gardens with me when I visit. I am happy my mum is a resident here.
02 May 2023
Excellent care home for my dad with dementia. Dad has settled well here in a caring environment and that means the world to us as a family. Dad seems to have found his feet here and he often tells us the food is lovely. they treat visitors with kindness and we feel confident with Dad's care
generally.

My Dad has been at Abbotsfield for the past six months. He settled well thanks to the reassurance, care and attention given to him by the staff. They also helped us as a family to adjust by keeping us informed and answering any questions we had. Dad is happy and content in Abbotsfield. It has a
family-run feel, with much laughter and enthusiasm exchanged between residents and staff. I feel they know Dad well and have a real connection with him, understanding his needs and respecting his wishes. There are many activities to join in with which enhances life for all, especially as the staff get involved in everything! The Halloween decorations were impressive and I look forward to seeing the Christmas festivities.
