My father came to Abbey House just before Christmas 2025. Dad was made to feel very welcome and settled quickly. We have since found the staff caring to it's residents and friendly to relatives. I often listen to them talking to residents, and it is caring and compassionate. The home itself is a
beautiful setting, and I find it to be very clean. I have since recommended Abbey House to others.

The home offers a safe and comfortable environment. Mum has a community with the other residents. The home has occasional live entertainment which often includes music and the arts. This is organised by a events planner who knows what each resident likes, to get the most enjoyable experience.

My father became a resident at Abbey House just over a year ago. We knew that they had very good reviews before he moved, but nothing could have prepared us for the seamless change over from a hospital stay to being a resident. They dealt with everything with absolute kindness, care and compassion.
During his stay, his dementia has advanced, but he's happy and that's due to the care he receives. We visit often, and it's never a problem, the staff are so friendly. I think we would find it difficult to find a better care home for him.

My wife was a resident for approximately 3 years up to her passing in December. During this time, my family and I are convinced that she was in the best possible place for her. She was always happy there, well cared for, and we were always kept informed of her health and well-being. The staff gave
us a warm welcome when visiting, which still applies now when we visit socially. During these difficult years, the staff were always comforting and reassuring to us. Grateful thanks.

My father spent the last few weeks of his life at Abbey House Nursing Home. I cannot praise them enough. The care and compassion they showed was incredible, not only to him, but to all his family too. Nothing was too much trouble for them and every single member of staff always had a ready smile and
time to talk. Thank you.

He was loving his life at Abbey House, he made friends with not only the residents but staff as well. He couldn't have been in a better nursing home, he wanted for nothing. All the staff make you feel welcome when you visit and are always invited to parties and activities.
01 April 2025
Excellent service. Staff very pleasant & helpful.

I would like to thank and congratulate the Manager and her team at Abbey House Nursing Home for looking after My Father so well after having a serious stroke in June 2020, during COVID at the age of 95. The hospital was also amazing and once he was on the mend, placed him in Abbey House Nursing
Home. My father has now been at Abbey House for 4.5 years and has just celebrated his 100th birthday (Friday 24th January), what an achievement. He would not have survived to 100th without the love, care, encouragement and support which has enabled him to use his muscles, so as to have functional independence to live and enjoy life at his new home at Abbey House. Their gardens are particularly lovely in the summer so as to be able to sit out in the sunshine. We celebrated my father's birthday on Friday 24th January in a private room at Abbey House and the team were once again amazing. I would highly recommend Abbey House Nursing Home for your loved ones.

My mum has lived at Abbey House since May 2023 and when it became necessary for my dad to need care later that year, he was adamant that the only place he would agree to go to, was Abbey House. This was firstly of course, to be with mum, but also because he was aware how kind, friendly and caring
the staff are. Everything possible was done to accommodate them both together in a pleasant double room, and Dad soon became settled and content. He appreciates the excellent care, the delicious food, and the way his likes and dislikes are noted and acted on. Management, administration, nurses, and carers, along with kitchen, beverages, laundry, cleaning and maintenance staff, all work with dedication, to make life for residents as comfortable and homely as possible. As a twice-weekly visitor, it is notable how welcome I am always received, and made to feel part of the big family, also that I am immediately informed of any medical issues affecting either parent. Absolutely first class throughout.

My mother moved in in June as it became apparent that she was no longer safe to remain living semi-independently, she has a beautiful airy room, and activities are available, however, she is not a social creature and prefers to remain in her room or sit in the garden, when the weather permits, she
says the food is very good and plenty of it, care is excellent, everybody is very friendly, tea/coffee available to visitors as well as homemade cakes.
23 September 2024
My Mum has been living at Abbey House for over a year now. She is very happy and so well cared for. All the staff from Nurses to Admin, to Carers, Maintenance, chefs and tea makers are all utterly delightful and my Mum loves them all! It is clear all the staff go to great lengths to make each
resident feel safe, happy, and nurtured. I couldn't ask for anything better for my precious Mum. It is clean, homely, well-staffed, bright, and welcoming with delicious home-cooked food. On my Mum's birthday last week, all the staff made a huge fuss of her all day by singing to her, giving her cards and gifts and the fabulous chef even made a fabulous 4-tier cake for her, me, and all the staff and residents to enjoy. It's the personal touches that make Abbey House so special.

My mother has been a resident at Abbey House since January 2024. I cannot fault the care she has received since her arrival. Staff are caring and attentive, treating my mother with respect and dignity. They have ensured she is included in as many activities as possible. There is a lovely friendly
atmosphere at the home and a positive attitude. I would definitely recommend the home.
23 April 2024
Since Mum moved in in January she has received excellent care. There are plenty of activities going on (even if she can't remember doing them!) The staff are friendly and helpful and it is such a relief to know she is in a safe environment and being so well looked after.
17 April 2024
My mum has been living at Abbey House since October 2023. I have to say the nursing home is brilliant! The staff really care about the residents and make a personal bond with (in my case) my mum. Mum is always commenting about the 'blue top' staff (the caregivers) as being excellent. I'm very happy
with my mum being in Abbey House.
03 April 2024
My first impression was a fresh smell of flowers and brightness. My sister's room has all her family photos on the window sill and bedside table which looks very homely, they take time in the morning to put her lipstick on and paint her nails. During the day they have exercise like catching balls
and other things like knitting and artwork. The food is first class. I can't praise everyone there enough.
19 January 2024
Can't thank Abbey House enough for all their help and care. All staff are excellent.
06 December 2023
My partner was moved from a hospice to Abbey House for 'care in dying'. Abbey House provided care with a capital C. Not only do they provide excellent care to the resident, but their care to family is second to none.
Our family found all the staff very professional, helpful, understanding and
sympathetic. We were comforted at every stage of a very harrowing experience.
I cannot praise Abbey House highly enough.
14 September 2023
We were extremely happy with the services and the professionalism of the staff.
24 August 2023
Our mum is very happy in this nursing home, and the care she receives here is excellent.
01 August 2023
My mum was a resident in the rehab unit of Abbey House Nursing Home for several weeks during which time she was looked after very well. All staff - office, carers and nurses - are friendly and attentive and made her feel welcome. Mum had a few health issues that cropped up during her time there and
I felt happy that she was being well looked after and treated with dignity. Mum particularly liked the food so a big thank you to the chef too!
