View Full Details of Blenham HouseI cannot praise the manager and her staff enough. From the first visit to have a look around to my Dad now being a resident, the friendly, caring and professional staff have reassured me we have made the correct decision to place Dad here. We know he is in safe hands and being treated with dignity and respect. Thank you to all staff for making Dad feel safe and for lightning the carers load on the family. We can now visit as a family rather than carers.
My sister has been in Blenheim House since January 2025. When i visit i can only say everyone is so friendly and very caring to the residents. The Manager is an exceptional lady and always has time to say hello. The Nurses are so caring and everyone of them has time for you as a relative. Thank you to them all.
My husband is a resident in this care home and as someone who has worked in care myself i can honestly say he gets the best care and is very well looked after. The staff go above and beyond. I know when im not with him that he is safe and well looked after. All the staff are very friendly and look after the loved ones too of the person in the care home that they are related to. This care home would be very deserving of an award.
I would like to say how great Blenham House Care Home is. My Mother moved there in May this year and the difference in my Mum is amazing. She loves all the staff from the manageress to all the nurses, the handymen and the catering staff who make a fuss of her and see to her every need. She enjoys all the activities from going out in the bus to the sing songs in the home. She is looking forward to celebrating her 100th birthday in September and is having a party in Blenham House with all her family and friends and all the staff. We can't thank everyone enough and wouldn't hesitate in recommending Blenham House.
All staff are always friendly, helpful and kind. It is the kindness shown to both residents and their families which makes Blenham House so special. They are never too busy to stop and help/answer questions. My Dad obviously feels relaxed and comfortable and always has a smile for his carers. They always offer visitors tea/coffee and nothing is ever too much trouble.
My brother who has special needs has been in Blenham House for over 3 years and staff are genuinely fond of him. He was very seriously ill several times this year. His care was exemplary and he made an excellent recovery. His appetite is very good and he's put weight on. I am always made very welcome by all staff - we chat and cover many topics. If I cannot visit my brother as often as I would like I am confident he is well looked after. To see him so contented is lovely. I also appreciate he has off days but know staff are kind and caring in their approach. Lastly, their interaction with other residents is very good.
My husband entered Blenham in January. My daughters and I had looked at a number of care homes prior to this date. All very nice and well appointed but it was Blenham which stood out above all the others. As soon as we walked in, we were welcomed with smiles from both staff and residents. Our first impressions were very positive and we came to the conclusion, very quickly, that this was where Ian's needs would be best met. My husband took a little time to settle in but was supported by the kindness, understanding and professionalism of all staff. He enjoys the activities, especially visits from musicians and singers who encourage the residents to sing along with them. The care home liaises closely with the local medical centre and a doctor visits regularly to attend to residents in need of care. The nursing staff are very attentive and always on the look out for any changes which may require further attention. The family and I take comfort in knowing that Ian is being well cared for.
I am delighted with the care my wife received at Blenham House. She always appears clean and tidy, and well looked after. All the staff at the home work very hard at keeping things running smoothly. From the early days of getting her admitted with all the paperwork and such, things went smoothly with great assistance and understanding. In my daily visits, I have observed how the carriers and nurses go out of their way to be of help to the residents. I don't know what I would do without the care, very thankful to all.
I would not hesitate to recommend Blenham House to anyone as my wife is a resident and she has received. nothing but kindness and consideration since she arrived in April also I have found all the staff very attentive and caring which makes life so much better for residents and family and gives everyone peace of mind
My mum has settled very well into Blenham house. She was very anxious about the move but was soon settled with the warm welcoming atmosphere on her arrival. This is most certainly down to the friendly caring staff. As a family we have been overwhelmed with the surroundings and professional care she has received by the wonderful Manager & team here.
I don't quite know where to start to explain how wonderful this care home is. My mother has just recently passed away after being in Blenham House for three years. Every single member of staff, from cleaning, housekeeping, care assistant and nursing staff, was just wonderful. Their care to my mum and to my family couldn't have been more attentive and caring. There is a lovely atmosphere in Blenham. It wasn't uncommon for us to come out of the lift to see carers dancing, singing and laughing with the residents. The place is spotlessly clean and bright. Many of the care staff have been there for quite some time and they clearly love being involved in the residents' lives. Don't hesitate to place your loved one in their exceptional care.
My review is relating to my mum's year long stay at Blenham House. She had genuine care here, that included her emotional needs and needs of the family. I am forever grateful. There are so many activities and time made available. Residents are treated as individuals and with respect and dignity.
Our dad received amazing care at Blenham House. All the staff were kind and courteous towards him and every family member that visited. Dad had Alzheimer's but was well aware of the level of care he was receiving, and was delighted to be there. He was cleanly shaven with his teeth brushed and in fresh clothes every day. This may seem like a standard level of care you would expect your elderly relative to receive anywhere, but I know from experience that it's not to the same standard at every hospital or care home. All at Blenham House provide this at the base level of their excellent care, often going far above and beyond. The meals provided at Blenham House are nutritious and appealing, with the chef happy to receive suggestions to ensure residents can enjoy their favourites. The manager and all her staff can feel proud of their wonderful facility that provides such a beautiful experience for vulnerable residents at the end stage of their lives, and such care and compassion shown to the family.
My dad lived at Blenham House Care Home until he died, of advanced Alzheimer's, and during that time was looked after with incredible loving kindness by the entire team. Everyone from the kitchen and housekeeping, to nurses and carers, as well as management and admin staff were true friends to him and made our whole family feel welcome and included in every aspect of his life there. Their relationship with the local GP practice is excellent. I can highly recommend Blenham House to families who are looking for genuine care for a loved one in an unpretentious, upbeat environment where your concerns are taken seriously and nothing is too much bother.
Each time I visit my mum I have found all the staff to be extremely friendly and helpful. My mum has been living there since January 2023 and she is very happy and well looked after by all of your staff. My mum is receiving excellent care at Blenham House Care Home and her overall health has improved immensely since being admitted there. I can not fault Blenham House at all. All of my family members are extremely grateful for the excellent care our mum is receiving. I live in Tampa, Florida and travel over to Edinburgh as often as I can to see my mum. I call my mum most days and she is always happy and content. This is a huge relief for me, being so far away to hear my mum happy.
The care for my father-in-law has been exemplary, with the management team being particularly responsive. All members of staff are very kind and caring with them all remembering the names of residents and regular visitors. The care is professional and knowledgeable and the wishes of residents/relatives are listened to. Visitors are always welcomed.
I really cannot commend Blenham House highly enough. My mother moved into Blenham in March 22, and the care she received was exemplary. The care that was also extended to me and my family as my mother approached the end of her life was first-class. I would not hesitate to recommend Blenham House to anyone looking for care for a family member.

All the family are so pleased with the care mum is receiving at Blenham House, all the staff are very friendly and although mum has only been there a couple of months, they have got to know her well.
