My brother has been at Avon Court now for 2 years, and he has told me he is very happy here. He really enjoyed VE Day very much. He also enjoys 50s and 60s music on the TV in the lounge. I must say all the staff are very good and nothing is too much trouble, so we like to say a big thank you to all
the staff. Well done.

My aunt has recently moved into Avon Court, and this was our first time of visiting. We were immediately impressed by the warmth of the staff and the homely atmosphere. We arrived just as my aunt was about to have lunch, and we were taken to see her in the dining room, which was laid out like a
proper restaurant - a lovely touch. The staff were actively engaging with her, getting her more involved with the other residents and activities. They were extremely attentive to her needs and very welcoming towards us.

This was my 1st time of visiting my aunt-in-law at Avon Court Care Home. From when we rang the doorbell to our leaving, the whole experience was positive. The welcome when we arrived was warm and the staff member knew where my aunt was and what she was doing. The staff were very kind and caring to
the resident as well as being very helpful to us - the visitors! A great 1st impression!

My father has been at the home since December 2025 in the Dementia section upstairs. After several months of assessment, it was suggested he would be better downstairs as he is still able to interact with people "at the moment".
The staff were fantastic, helping him move, nothing was too much
trouble, and we all got him settled fairly quickly.
After several weeks, he is much happier in his new room, interacting and being a lot more mobile. It was a decision well made. A big thank you to everyone who helped that day, you made us all very happy. We chose Avon Court to look after dad.

A very warm and welcoming home and very friendly staff. We have been here today to see mum, and there was a wonderful 'sing a long' time / Carpenters singer which my mum enjoyed very much. My mum seems very happy here and enjoys the activities very much. A huge thank you to all the staff for their
care and concern. Perhaps my mums room could do with a redecoration as it is a bit tired. But as I say, a lovely, welcoming home for my mum to be in.

Everyone is really warm and welcoming. They smile to make each day enjoyable and provide a lot of activities/karaoke to keep them entertained. It's a lovely environment and I can tell my grandma is happy here which is so lovely to see.
I had a great time singing along with a Carpenters tribute
today with grandma which was great fun! I can tell the residents here are very well looked after!

We always find the staff friendly, welcoming and caring. The activities are really good and varied. The activities coordinator does her best to plan a varied programme. We had a Carpenters tribute this afternoon and the singer was brilliant - very engaging and lovely with the residents, really
encouraging them to participate. The resident really enjoyed it, and we felt very welcome and included. The staff obviously know and genuinely care about the residents - you can tell this by the way they interact.

My mother was reluctant to move to any care home facility.
However, after 4 weeks she talked about it in glowing terms. The staff! lovely and really friendly, all so helpful and kind.
The food was good and she had a serious appetite for her age.
I am so pleased we chose Avon Court it made the
last period of her life comfortable I would have every reason to recommend to others.

My mother has received excellent care at Avon Court. The liaison between the nursing staff and the GP has been proactive and very good. The quality of food is excellent - my mother has always said the meals are very good and usually clears her plate! Avon Court can show excellent attention to
detail. On my mothers birthday staff decorated her room and presented a special cake and sang "Happy Birthday". Really appreciated by her and all the family.

Lovely caring staff.

I am able to spend quality time with my husband and know that he's being looked after and cared for well, it has given me peace of mind that he's safe.
All staff are excellent, carers, nurses & entertainment staff, cleaners.

Dad has been a resident at Avon Court since Jan 2025. It was a really worrying time for my mum and me as to whether the care would be good but I can honestly say he is in very safe hands. The staff are so kind and really care about the residents and nothing is too much trouble for them. Dad really
enjoys the music entertainment and it has a really positive effect on the dementia residents. Well done to the Entertainment Team who work really hard to keep everyone happy.

Since January 2025, my grampy has been a resident of Avon Court Care Home. The positive change in his well-being has been remarkable. The staff's friendly & attentive nature, combined with engaging activities, have significantly enhanced his quality of life. Visiting has become a joy knowing he's in
such caring hands.

Very happy that my aunt has been taken out on two trips recently. They have really cheered her up. I just want to thank the lovely lady who organises the entertainment. Keep up the good work!

I was delighted on my father's birthday. The staff put on as short notice an impromptu celebration with cake, which made his day. Very many thanks.

My nan turned 100 years old and the care home and the staff went above and beyond to help us set up the room for us to celebrate. I am beyond grateful for everyone who helped.
22 January 2025
Throughout my brother's care, he was treated with dignity and respect by friendly cheerful staff as were we. We were kept up to date with his progress and treatment at all times. Myself and my family cannot thank all staff concerned enough for making his last days bearable.

My relative has settled well here. Conservatory seems underused, spends a lot of time on her own in her room, says she is lonely. Sometimes small of urine in the corridor. Generally has a good friendly atmosphere. The staff are always cheerful, but could do with larger name badges - easier to read!
We are generally pleased with her care.
16 January 2025
This is my first year of witnessing the Christmas atmosphere and festivities in the home. The whole month of December has been a wonderful experience for both residents and family. Always lots going on, plenty of activities. The care my mother has received over the last few months has been nothing
short of exceptional. Mum loves it here. Thank you.
