The care my mother in law recieved whilst at Gorselands was excellent. She has been unwell for a while and the management and staff were so caring towards her and us in her final days. When she first went into Gorselands it felt like a home no clinical feel or smell about it. The staff always
pleasant and looking like they enjoy working there. Mum enjoyed chats and a bit of banter with them. Her medical needs were always well taken care of.

We were realy lucky mum was sent to Gorselands. In her final years. She was made very welcome from the day she arrived and the care has been absolutely excellent. The managemet and staff are friendly and careing always ready with a smile for mum. Mum felt at home there from the first day there. I
can't thank the home enough for the way the looke after her.

Myself and my husband visited a dear friend who was in Gorselands for restbite white her family were on holiday. We were very pleasantly surprised to see this home has had a change of management. The home is welcoming, bright, clean and no smell of urine! The staff were so happy we could sense the
family atmosphere. We visited a friend before COVID and were sad as the home was dirty and dark! Well done - our friend has been treated well, thank you.

All the staff at Gorselands have been excellent. They are kind, caring and dedicated to providing the best experience for residents. My father's stay was over a few months following a fall. They catered for every need (and he was very particular about the food), which we absolutely cannot complain
about and looked incredibly impressive.
They provide the most extensive entertainment and activities along with a monthly plan to each resident, which is just outstanding. Residents can dip in and out as they choose. If I/ we had any relatives in need of a care home or friends who have relatives we absolutely would recommend this home.more like a warners break than a care home. We thank everyone for the time they took to get to know him. And wish every single member of staff all the very best for the future.

Gorselands is a wonderful community of kind and dedicated staff who have created a warm and welcoming atmosphere for all residents and visitors. The effort put into variety available at the home is exceptional, from the daily menu and activities available to the living spaces to spend time in,
highlights how inclusion is prioritised here. Gorselands has been there to support my loved ones for years which highlights their ability to consistently provide excellent and reliable care. Additionally, their location in the New Forest adds to the peaceful environment of the home.

My husband, Roy, was admitted to Gorselands on 11 April 2025. The level of service and care he received throughout his stay was exceptional. I know he was being well treated because he always smiled of the staff when they entered his room. For the first few months he tried to be an escape artist and
got himself into crazy positions. They were always having to reposition him.

My wife was a resident at Gorselands for three years. The care, compassion, support, kindness and dedication that all the staff gave her was second to none. The menu was adjusted to her needs as and when required and the input from the chef, nutritionist and nurses was superb. All the staff team
were totally amazing in everything they did for her. They are very much a family with plenty of laughter and fun. The entertainments team are incredible with the event they organise. Birthdays for residents are always celebrated with a superb cake/balloons and banners. A very happy place. During a very difficult time for me, they were very supportive and nothing was too much trouble for them. When my wife passed away, members of staff I had never met came to her room to see me and to say goodbye to her. The home is spotless and the management team achieve very standards on every level. Thank you for everything you do for the residents. If/when I need a nursing home, I will certainly book myself in to Gorselands!

I cannot praise this home enough my husband was here 8 years ago, now my father. The standards of are are still as high, the staff are all so lovely & kind & really go more than the extra mile to provide a cosy 'family' feel to all residents and their relatives. Everyone matters to them & they show
it. Beautiful setting & good food too.

So happy with the loving care and attention given to Mums many needs by all the staff at Gorselands. It's not just Mum they consider, but the whole of her family. They have made everyone welcome, which is really appreciated by all for them to be able to see Mum so happy and doing so well. Thank you
to all the staff at Gorselands.

As part of continuous care following a spell in hospital my mother spent her last week in Gorselands. Her room was beautiful and the staff I met were attentive and respectful. It gives our family comfort that our mother was in such a lovely environment until she died.

My cousin had been a resident at this lovely family run nursing home for four years but sadly passed away so peacefully recently. The excellent team always had her comfort and well being foremost. She needed extra nursing care latterly which was sympathetically carried out in a really professional
but friendly manner. As a relation I will miss visiting them all as they made me feel almost part of their family. Not being there all the time my review is based on having been sent their excellent Chronicles newsheet with photos with regard to activities etc. I have recommended the home but warned the main access road is typical of the tranquil heart of the forest location.

The staff at Gorselands are professional, caring and very attentive. They cared for my father until he passed away at the age of 96 years. It is located in an amazing New Forest village, ideal for the occupants to relax.

The Gorselands nursing home's care for my uncle was exemplary. The kind, caring staff made his final 10 days a peaceful time. Staff were attentive and empathetic. Nothing was too much trouble and we are all grateful for their kindness to our family and our loved one.

The team are very caring and very helpful. They are very supportive. If we could have more details on entertainers that come in to see if Mum wants to go or not.

When my friend first arrived at Gorseland last year there were a few gaps in communication between staff/management. These seem to have ben resolved. I am impressed with the. time and trouble, the staff go to, to ensure a pleasing, friendly atmosphere. They go the extra mile to decorate the lounges
and dining room for various occasions. ie. Valentines Day tea party. The care staff are approachable and do that best to make the residents lives fullfulling and meaningful.

The care given to my mother from the moment she entered Gorselands until her death was exemplary. The staff always put residents at the centre. They were kind caring and wonderful social activities were arranged when she was able to take advantage of them. When she deteriorated the staff were caring
and attentive. The nursing care was second to none. The communication with myself was very good. The last years of my mother's life were much less painful knowing she was so well cared for.
