I am pleased the home offers my mum a place of safety. She is kept clean and presentable and overall the food is good. The care staff work very hard and the activity staff. Rooms maybe a bit dated and need brightening up but you can take your own bedding in which helps. I have to give praise to the
office staff as they are brilliant and of great help and support to me with dealing with queries. Thank you for looking after my mother as it was hard to have to let her go to a nursing home after looking after her for 15 years but I can relax a bit more knowing she is safe.

Exceptional staff on the second floor looking after my Mom. Needs are met any problems are dealt with within 24 hours from the staff. Eggy/Julie are exceptional carers tending to my mom, taking time out to talk to her, in between visits and if they aren't too busy with other residents, activities
are here for all residents, and again Julie goes out of her way to see if my mom wants to participate. Food is good and plenty of choice again the two foremost mentioned can't fault or praise enough - unbelievable pair of staff.

Choosing a care home for a loved one is never easy. You want them to be somewhere where they feel safe, somewhere clean. Where the staff are friendly and also professional. Food that is nutritious, but also looks appetising and a room that is spacious, which you can turn into a home. Also, somewhere
that you, as their most frequent visitor, are going to be made to feel welcome, listened too and treated as the person who knows your loved one best.
I found all of this in a place called Ardenlea Grove, in Solihull.
I visited numerous times. All times of the day and night and not once was I made to feel uncomfortable. From Rachel on reception, Chryll in Finance, Egbert and his team of wonderful nurses & nursing assistants, John the maintenance guy and not forgetting Sanah the Manager. I met them all and not once did I sense any red flags. So the decision was made. And that's when the real fight began.
If you aren't self funding, sadly, there are many hoops you have to jump through with regard to the local authority, to get the home of your choosing. From funding, to the right equipment. But it was during this battle that any lingering doubts I might have had that Ardenlea Grove was the right place for my husband, was quickly demolished. Because my fight became their fight and the support I received, before my husband even set foot on the premises, was immeasurable. And here we are, 8 weeks down the line, with my husband happily looking at the squirrels & birds in the tree outside his window. With family pictures hanging on the wall. Clean, shaven and a delicious lunch ahead of him and the icing on the cake? Unlimited visits from the love of his life. Lucy, his beloved dog!
Do I recommend Ardenlea Grove? That would be a yes.

I found my wife to be cared for very well indeed. All the staff she meets are very efficient, friendly and kind. Food deserves praise. The cost of all this excellence is understandably high.
25 March 2026
Mom has been a resident since 2024, and we feel she is fully cared for by committed and caring staff. Although we see her every day, we are secure in the knowledge that when we are not there, she is safe and her well-being is a priority. The staff work hard, I just wish there were more of them so
there could be more 1:1 conversations with the residents.

I am really happy with the care given to mum - she is well looked after by nurses and carers. I am kept informed about Mum every time I visit/call. The home is always putting on activities, visits, music, and quizzes for residents (and visitors). To keep the residents as active and involved as
possible. Mum is dressed, clean and cared for. The rooms are clean, and food is nutritious (when mum feels like eating). I would recommend this home.
18 March 2026
Staff are amazing, from night staff to office staff and care team, they are all cheerful and helpful. A special mention of Egbert, his care and nursing has solved mum's medical problems when the hospital had 'washed their hands' of her. Having someone who mum trusts has made a world of difference.
Also office staff have spent many hours sorting issues with finances for us, which is so appreciated.

I love volunteering here weekly. The staff are so lovely. From baking to jewellery making to virtual cruises, the activities are amazing!! My favourite activity is when a live singer came in as I could see the positive impact it had on the residents. Thank you for the experience to volunteer!!

My mother- in- law, has been a resident, at Ardenlea Grove care home, for just over two years. She has always been treated with respect & dignity. The family are notified of any signs of illness & if needed, a doctor will be contacted. We have always found the staff to be very friendly & helpful.
Their jobs are not always easy to do & we do appreciate their hard work. We are kept up to date with any other problems, such as not eating etc.
so, thank you to Ardenlea Grove, for taking good care of a very special lady.

My review for the Home is excellent. From Reception Rachel to Nurses Sister Anne and Home Manager Sanah, they are amazing, always there to help and so welcoming. They make it feel like family. Also HCA San and Jo go above and beyond with my mum and other residents. Overall, they listen to any
concerns you have.

I am an resident who came when I needed to find care at short notice. Ardenlea where already know to me as they had looked after my husband for a number of years. The staff managers, nurses, back office staff reception cleaners cooks maintenance gardens entertainment staff. I found Ardenlea for my
husband who had Parkinson's recommend by his Parkinson nurse I realised the staff would understand the need for PD meds to very carefully timed. My husband died several months after I came in to be The staff are now looking after me but they do the same level of care for everyone .This is is now my home and would recommend anyone to be cared for as well but Ardenlea is always full.
Although Ardelnlea is called a Care home it is actually a full Nursing Home. It the level of care is t 24 hours 7 days a week. Nurses and carer are on 12 hours shifts. The GP surgery gives excellent care
Their is complete choice of menu and full enteratinment 7 days a week.

Ardenlea Grove Care Home is extremely well run with pleasant and professional staff. The rooms are large and well furnished. This care home is located close to the center of Solihull with good road connections. Having looked around many local care homes for my wife I am sure I chose the right
one. The care home is clean and well laid out.
30 January 2026
I find the staff extremely helpful and friendly. Mum is comfortable. warm and in the right environment although personally I find it very difficult. The room is basic and when I saw her last she looked somewhat dishevelled and needing a bit of TLC. It may be her refusing - I do know her! Overall she
looked a sad old lady.
The staff were very attentive and I cannot fault them or the care.
It was a shame to visit in January that no one had opened the card with the flowers sent to her for Christmas.
I know it was a one off and a snowy Sunday, but the paths and road were unsafe and needed clearing for access to the site. Being picky here.

Ardenlea Grove Care Home, part of Bupa, consistently meets high expectations. While Lisa is missed, Sanah, the new Home/Clinical Manager, is doing an impressive job maintaining these standards. From the moment you enter, Rachel at reception offers a warm welcome, setting a positive tone. The
Sapphire Ward team works exceptionally hard-special thanks to Egbert, Staff Nurse, and Julie, Care Worker, whose professionalism and compassion are truly reassuring. Having visited multiple times, I can confidently say that Ardenlea operates to a very high standard, showing dedication, consistency, and genuine care for residents. Credit where it is due.

Since the day we viewed the room, assessment, sticking mum's room with clothes etc., the office staff, carers have been so caring and helpful. Mum settled very quickly. Ardenlea is very clean at all times. Now we realise we should have done this earlier. Totally fulfilled all of mum's needs. Thank
you to all the staff.

I always receive a lovely welcome at reception and the staff are lovely and take the time to get to know my friend, including his food likes and dislikes. They have activities sessions to keep the residents occupied and interacting with each other.
He is cared for well and I would recommend this
care home to others.

I am extremely grateful for the persistent pressure that Sarah (clinical lead) has put on the local mental health team to get my mum re-assessed and medication prescribed for her Alzheimer's. Mum has been in considerable distress for several months.
10 October 2025
The care home and all the staff are excellent and made sure my mom is looked after and cared for really well. This includes the staff at reception who makes you feel welcome when visiting.

I chose to come to Ardenlea Grove Care Home for some respite care. The ethos is immediately striking as friendly, happy and welcoming. In particular, the staff are especially helpful and respectful. The food is home made which suited the fact that I needed to put on weight. The room is adequate but
needs a make over. I would have liked some opportunity to do some basic physio as I spent a lot of time immobile, walks to the garden are ok but needs some attention to encourage residents to go there. Overall, I was happy with my stay, especially the lovely staff.
