My mum unexpectedly had to go into a care home and was transferred to one under a D2A. With no experience of care homes, I thought it was "normal" but was devastated every time I visited and left her there. I decided to look elsewhere and came across Arbour Court. From my first visit, I
was blown away. Every single staff member is fantastic, and it is more like a hotel than a care home. I visited mum multiple times daily, and loved just being there, and she was really flourishing in the environment too. The activities are amazing and the staff are so attentive and thoughtful, I could not have asked for more. Unfortunately my mum passed away soon after moving to Arbour Court following a short illness (which the nurses picked up on immediately), and I am deeply regretful that my mum did not get to stay longer here. If you are looking for a nursing home for your loved one, I couldn't recommend Arbour Court enough - I would have moved in myself!

During our initial visit to Arbour Court with the General manager we were not only impressed with the home but also the advice & support we received to help us through what had been an extremely difficult period in trying to find a suitable home for Mum. It was by far the best home we had visited -
it is a lovely place with a very 'homely' feel.
Mum has been there for 3 weeks now & a special effort had been made to accomodate her in a room with a garden view with very calming decoration in the room. Moving her in was seamless. The care she has received has been excellent & she is settling in well & showing and interest in the many activities they have.

The entire staff at Arbour Court are, without exception, brilliant, caring, professional, always cheerful and above all compassionate. They treat my husband with respect at all times and ensure he still has his dignity. The general manager and finance manager have been nothing but helpful. Although
the fees are high, the home is good value for money because it gives the family peace of mind that our loved one is receiving the best of care. I cannot fault the home in any way. I would thoroughly recommend Arbour Court to anyone looking for a care home for a loved one.

When my wife needed end-of-life treatment, my daughter and I visited Arbour Court. We were so impressed! The building was bright and clean and the staff warm and friendly. When my wife moved in, her room was nicely decorated, with good lighting and little touches, like photo frames provided. During
all my visits over 5 weeks, I never saw residents treated with anything other than compassion and respect. My wife's team of carers were so caring and good-humoured, forming a lovely, even affectionate relationship with her and the family. A wonderful team of medical staff monitored her condition regularly and she received effective medication to control pain and distress. Her family and friends were also very well looked after; we could not have asked for better.

Caring for my mum was an isolating experience - she looks well - she looks young - in shops & cafes, people had no time or patience for her & that experience isolated us both. Since Mum moved to Arbour Court, I no longer feel alone. I have 20/30 other people around me who understand and care! I
became isolated from friends & family, & now I feel we've all become part of an extended family. The caring environment has benefited us all. Allowing residents to live with their dementia - live in their world is commendable - thanks.

My friend moved into Barchester Arbour Court Care Home just over two years ago and I have visited her most weeks since then. On every occasion, my friend has been very well cared for, well-presented, comfortable and as I would here for her.
Staff on every occasion have been friendly, helpful and
supportive, that includes all staff, those on reception, cleaners, nursing staff.

I just want to thank all the staff at Barchester Arbour Court Care Home. My husband has been there a long time now. When I go to visit him, the staff are all lovely, pleasant and I really feel they care for me as much as my husband. The home is beautiful and my husband is spotlessly clean even
though he's bedridden. Very high regards to this place.

I would like to thank all the management and staff for looking after my best friend, they are all caring and will do anything they can to make the residents feel at home and at ease. It is a lovely care home, very clean and the lounges are very pleasant to sit in, the residents' rooms are lovely,
meals are very nicely cooked and served with staff on hand to help others who need it.
Plenty of entertainment and gardens for them to sit out in the nice weather.
Would definitely recommend Barchester Arbour Court Care Home, one of the nicest homes I have visited.

My mum is a resident at Arbour Court and after a very daunting experience looking for a nursing home for Mum, I felt a huge relief from the moment I walked into Arbour Court.
My only worry was Mum wouldn’t get a place. Thank God she did.
The whole atmosphere is caring, the staff are exceptional
and treat residents like their family. In fact, it is one big family. Compassion, care, and interest in each resident is carried out in a professional calm and friendly manner by all staff.
Management is outstanding and a credit to Barchester.
Thank you Arbour Court for helping our family to feel more at ease with Mum in a home, knowing she is receiving outstanding care.

My father has been a resident since 2018. As someone who had no faith and trust in care homes, I can honestly say Barchester Arbour Court Care Home is amazing.
The staff are beyond wonderful, caring and will do anything for you.
Residents are treated with respect and as one of the family.
In the
last few weeks, upon my father's deterioration, it has been care on another level, they have made Dad and my family so comfortable, always providing refreshments, updates and friendly support and the ultimate care package to ensure Dad's last few days are as pleasant and comfortable as possible.
I can’t thank the team enough and wouldn’t have a qualm recommending them as ‘simply the best’, you’re all amazing!
