My mother had been a resident at Sherwood Grange since February 2023, following decline in her mobility and cognitive abilities. The home was well maintained, comfortable and warm, the staff always seemed to genuinely care for the residents, and great effort was made to ensure my mum was involved in
the activities and outings, even though she had lost her enthusiasm for life. They always attended to her medical needs, calling on the local GP or district nurse where necessary. In the last few weeks, when she declined, I was kept informed of her condition and they checked on her regularly and always had her welfare and comfort at the forefront of her care. I have only dropped a star as many of the clothes that we had taken in, disappeared over the course of her stay. This was reported to various staff members and I know it happens at other care homes.

My husband was a resident at Sherwood Grange for 3 years. During his time there I visited nearly every day and got to know know the carers and home very well. The core team of carers were there from the start which meant they knew him and the other residents very well. I found all the carers to
be very kind and caring to everyone, even the difficult residents. There is an activity team who organise outings and plenty going on within the home so most days they don't just sit in front of the TV all day. I have found that the management team are very hands on and approachable. My husband sadly passed away in September and as I didn't want him to go to hospital, he received end of life care in the home and for his last 3 days my son, daughter and I were able to be with him 24/7. Everyone was very kind and caring to us all and my husband. A number of the carers even attended my husbands funeral which is a testament to their caring nature. I would definitely recommend Sherwood Grange.

Overall care was good as far as I can tell. Rebecca can remember nothing about it. I was not happy with the Prestay assessment. It should have been more personalised for Dementia sufferers and what Rebecca had been used to at home, such as airbed and air recliner. This could have prevented her bed
sore development. Also a post stay report would be useful for any Dementia sufferers carer. The home staff are always very helpful.

My daughter Jowita spent two weeks at this Home Care. I would like to wholeheartedly thank all the staff for taking such good care of my daughter. The Home is beautiful, clean, and fragrant. When you walk in, you feel right at home. The entire staff is fantastic, helpful, caring, and friendly. My
daughter felt like she was on vacation with family.

My friend Connie spent a month's respite at Sherwood Grange following hospitalisation for a stroke. We were both very impressed by its pleasant decor and good food, as we were by the friendliness of the staff.

Sherwood Grange is a very pleasant care home with nice rooms, dining area and communal room.
The food is excellent.
There are also quite a few activities for the people cared for including a cinema room trips out and live music.
My father had advanced dementia and the best thing about Sherwood
Grange were the staff.
You hear many horror stories about how staff treat people in care homes but the staff at Sherwood Grande were wonderful.
They truly had a great connection with my father and I noticed the same with other people.
I must also thank the supervisors in charge of my father's floor, they were very professional but also very kind and caring and seamed genuinely pleased when my father was doing well.
All in all I cannot recommend Sherwood Grange enough.

Started as a 3 week respite stay and ended up being 4 months. Despite change, my husband was well cared for and definitely well fed. Lots of activities included for residents. Staff caring and attentive to his needs.

My husband had three weeks respite at Sherwood Grange in August. Time was taken to settle him in and I was also made very welcome and told that I could visit at any time of day.
He liked the staff and they seemed to like him so I felt quite happy after five days to go away with my family for a
weeks holiday leaving him in their care.While I was away I even had a phone call to say that he was ok.
Even on my return he did not seem to mind that he was not coming home with me which proved to me that he was quite at home there.
This respite has been invaluable for my wellbeing to allow me to continue to look after my husband with Alzheimers for as long as I can.

Mum was at Sherwood Grange for just over a year and had the best care we could have asked for. I was very unsure about using a care home but it was the right choice. Mum had companionship and a staff team who really cared. They arranged a party for her Birthday which was so special. It was also
great from a relative's point of view as communication was excellent and we were able to arrange for help with hospital trips when we weren't available. The 'open door' policy for visiting was so reassuring. The whole team were amazing from the office staff, the reception team to the carers who all took the time to really know the residents. A particular thanks to the team leaders, who all went the extra mile as well as carers who Mum got to know and trust. Most importantly, Mum called it home and that, I think, says it all.

When my mother moved into Sherwood Grange, she found the staff welcoming, caring and kind. Visitors also are made to feel very welcome.
The ensuite rooms are very pleasant and comfortable. The home is very clean and well maintained and all the common areas comfortable and inviting for both
residents and visitors. There is a pretty garden area as well.
The meals are very good and beautifully served and there are plenty of varied activities for those that want.
I would definitely recommend Sherwood Grange.

It was with trepidation that I sent my husband, suffering with Parkinson's and dementia into Sherwood Grange for his first respite stay, but I felt reassured by the staff and their caring attitude towards him. His accommodation fulfilled all his needs and wants as did the staff taking care of him.
They made me feel at ease with the situation too, so much so that I have booked another respite stay for him (and me!) next month. So thank you to the team at Sherwood Grange.
18 June 2025
My husband was admitted on the 9th of May.
Straight away he was taken care by the staff and made to feel at home.
Every time I went to see him he was busy which is good for his mind.
He had a lovely room overlooking trees.

My brother and I were delighted with the three weeks respite care my father received at Sherwood Grange again this year. The staff where friendly and professional and made my Dad feel welcome and ensure he had everything he need when required. When I visited my Dad , he only had hi praise for staff
and other residents and how they involved him in everything from singing and drinks in the garden. He also enjoyed lots of guests who came in to chat / gave talks to residents making a change from his normal daily routine at home. So I would strongly recommend this home and I will mine and Dad's my first choice when he needs respite again.

I was very happy that my Mum was part of Sherwood Grange care. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Mum had a nice big room, with her own bathroom, the reception aria and coffee shop were welcoming to use at all times. We spent some time with her enjoying teas and coffees with cakes or
biscuits, in the cafe or sit in the lovely garden when weather permited. I strongly recommend Sherwood Grange

My daughters and I were delighted with the three weeks respite care my wife had at Sherwood Grange. The staff were very welcoming and quickly helped her settle in. I was impressed by the professional approach they took to learning all about her and what she needed by way of help with dressing,
eating and sleeping. She quickly felt at home, helped by having a nice room with a view of the garden and her first lunch.
I visited most days and always found her to be happy and contented and several times I was able to see her join in with music and singing sessions. It was great to be able to take her down to the cafe for a drink and a cake or to sit in the garden with other residents and staff. The staff were always friendly and well engaged and alert to any possible issues.
Sometimes clothes go missing in homes but the laundry were very efficient at labelling any clothes which I had failed to mark and in returning them all packed up at the end of the stay.
I strongly recommend the home.

Sherwood Grange Nursing home is a fantastic place, very caring to all its residents and manament are Brilliant, if I was to give it star's I woud give 5 stars. As my Wife is very happy there and settled in very nicely.

Thanks to the team at Sherwood Grange for making my Dad's Respite Care stay with them so smooth. This is the second time we have used this temporary service to give my mum a well-earned rest. It's been a really simple experience with lots of kind and attentive carers who make us all feel at ease and
ensure the approach is tailored to us. We would really recommend this to anyone looking for short-term, high-quality care for an elderly loved one when the time comes.

My Mum came to Sherwood Grange for her second respite stay From December 2024 to January 2025. As before, the staff were very helpful when planning and getting ready for her arrival. The whole team were so friendly and welcoming, and the facilities are of the highest standard. Suffering with
dementia, mum was anxious and scared. The Carers took the time to re-assure her , to make her feel safe and welcome. The environment and facilities are spotless, the fixtures and fittings are good quality. The menu is delicious, the food well-cooked and presented to restaurant standards. The activities are well thought out. But all this would count for nothing without the kindness and attentiveness of all the staff, from the Cleaners, to the Carers, Team Leaders, Reception and Customer Relations staff.

Mum was very tired after multiple hospital stays and being discharged prematurely. Her care team at home are excellent but the coming and going of multiple bodies had left her very weary. She needed some respite to get back her feeling of self worth. This is exactly what Sherwood Grange provided her
with. Mum looks and feels rejuvenated after her stay. A super new hairstyle, the enjoyment of spending time with her fellow residents and generally feeling pampered. A wonderful stay!

I could not be more appreciative and thankful for the dignified and professional care my great friend received during his time at Sherwood Grange, from Jan '23 until Oct '24. Although maybe not always the easiest resident, he came to have great trust and affection for the wonderful Sherwood Grange
team who truly valued and respected him as an individual. His medical needs were carefully monitored, and I always was informed of any changes to his situation. As his next of kin, it fell to me to search for the best care home where he could be happy, comfortable and well looked after, and the decision to choose Sherwood Grange has never once been regretted. Also, I will always be extremely grateful for the support I received from the management team, particularly if I was struggling in my dealings with Social Services. In my friend's final weeks and days, I could not have asked for anything more; he knew that he was safe and loved, and the support I also received at this time was exemplary.
