Our mum was transferred to Beggars Roost Nursing Home back in February 2025 after a two month hospital stay. Our overall experience of Beggars Roost has been very positive, the staff are kind, caring & lovely. The nurses & care home manager, who is also the matron are absolutely lovely & they make
sure the residents get their medication on time & are also there if a resident needs them, for example if a resident has more pain or if the care team ask for a nurse to take a look at a resident. It is reassuring having nurses on hand, so you know your loved one is well taken care of & kept as pain free as possible. The room our mum is in is lovely & mum has her own reclining chair that the care team can hoist mum into if she doesn't want to go downstairs. The food seems to always be fresh & presented lovely. Chef always makes deserts as well. If a resident is hungry in between whiles, they can press their callbell & ask for something else to eat or if they want another cuppa. There is no restrictions, which is so good. Also, the G.P, being in contact with the nurses weekly, is so reassuring. The home is kept clean & looking lovely. Lovely conservatory & garden for all to use.

My mother spent 18 months at Beggars Roost and thoroughly enjoyed her stay. The rooms were clean and comfortable with a very nice garden in which to spend time if desired. The team of Matron, nursing staff, carers, kitchen staff and administrators were fantastic and could not do enough to make my
mother's stay with them a happy and enjoyable stay. Mum enjoyed her friendly chats with the staff who would always ensure that mum was comfortable and would spend as much time as needed with her, nothing was too much trouble. The food was excellent and if mum didn't like what was available, the kitchen staff would always accommodate her with whatever she preferred to eat. Mum was bed bound during her stay and was always treated with care, warmth and dignity, sadly mum passed away in November 2025, but the staff assisted the family through this difficult time. Beggars Roost comes highly recommended, keep up the good work and thank you.

My mother suffers from advanced Parkinsons disease and was transferred to Beggars Roost during covid having been placed in two other local nursing home prior to this but not settled. Despite the restrictions and challenges which applied at the time, she was made very comfortable and has been very
well cared for by the medical and care staff since. She has a large and pleasant ground floor room with a view of the well kept gardens. Despite the advanced stage of her illness and being bed bound she has not had any significant periods of sickness whilst at Beggars Roost which is testament to the quality of the medical care she receives. My brothers and I are very grateful to Lee and all the staff for the way our mother is looked after.

My Mum was taken into Beggars Roost Care Home in March 2024 where she still resides. The care she receives in the home is Second to none and all the staff are very supportive and understanding towards her needs. Me and my Brother do not live locally and the Staff at the home assist us in taking Mum
to Hospital Appointments if we cant get down on the appointment date which is much appreciated.
The Home is in a very quiet location and has an excellent and well kept grounds.
I highly recommend this care home.

My Husband was transferred from Hospital to Beggars Roost. This was the best thing I ever did as he had a very traumatic time there. The moment he arrived at Beggars Roost he was greeted by a member of the Team to at a serene calm place.
His care was second to none the Matron and all the staff were
amazing, After his arrival he became more contented and was able to go into the Conservatory and watch, occasionally take part in the activities.
The food was excellent and beautifully presented and he was able to have meals he enjoyed.
He arrived at Beggars Roost with a very nasty scald wound and this was treated with such care.
He had a lovely room looking out onto the side garden the grounds were well looked after.
As he became more ill and bed bound he was comfy and and treated with dignity. The family was treated with such kindness right up until he died.
I could say lots much more about the wonderful care this Home offered to my Husband but I will run out of space. Thank you all.

Very caring. Nurses, carers and other staff very friendly. I was well looked after for my 9 months there. All did their best to rehabilitate me, and everybody was kind and usually cheerful. I was there after a fall and hospital treatment, and the staff went out of their way to get me the right
drugs and activities.

My father was very happy at Beggars Roost Nursing Home. He was cared for very professionally by the nursing staff and they spent time with him and got to know him very well. We felt happy in the knowledge that he was looked after well and we, as a family, were kept informed of what was going on with
him. We would highly recommend this nursing home.

My mother has now been in this care home for just over 3 years and I continue to be impressed with the level of care she receives. The standard of care has always been maintained to a very high level throughout what has been the most difficult of times.
Over the years she has been at Beggars Roost
she has been able to develop an excellent rapport with the staff for which our whole family are very grateful for. All the staff are very caring and respectful, the home itself is in a beautiful setting and excellently maintained. I would not hesitate to recommend this home to anyone.

Thanking everyone for the care they gave to my husband in his last months. Especially in his last six days as the loving care was extended to myself and adult children.
My husband was a victim of Motor neurone disease. He had no speech or movement but his brain remained active. The care he received
was greatly appreciated.
Covid prevented family visits but we were thankful of your care and attention to him and your tolerance to my daily FaceTime call.
As my husband reached the end of life your kindness was second to none.
Without hesitancy, I recommend Beggars Roost to my friend as her husband needed residential care.
My thanks to all.

My mum has been a resident at Beggars Roost for 4 years. During this time she has received excellent care and support as her dementia has progressed. The staff are professional, caring, friendly and welcoming to residents and relatives alike. They have always met my mum’s changing needs with care
and support whilst maintaining her dignity. As a relative, I have always been kept well informed of my mum’s care and been made welcome whenever I visit. The staff work hard to provide activities and events to include everyone and ensure relatives have happy memories of these shared occasions. I would strongly recommended Beggars Roost nursing home to others.

Mum has been at Beggars Roost for a year now and has been very well cared for in all that time. All the staff are friendly, helpful and importantly always available to help or talk to. Mum seems better now than she has been for a long time and bearing mind she loved her home, she finds Beggars Roost
a real home for her now she can no longer sustain an independent life. The staff are a real team and well steered by matron whose whole existence seems dedicated to the welfare of her family of residents. The volunteers are fantastic, and the activities are a real stimulus to Mum who enjoys her time in the conservatory with the other residents. That said staff are well aware that sometimes she just wants quiet private time and respect that giving her space and taking her wherever she feels comfortable. We could not have chosen a better home to extend to Mum the dignified care she deserves.
21 October 2019
Our mum spent nearly 2 years at Beggars Roost until she died very peacefully. We were very happy that she was looked after so well, and she often told us how kind staff were. The activities in the lounge always seemed so companionable and welcoming with a lovely atmosphere.
