Great staff and team, activities are fantastic and really good to see the residents having a good time. The carers are really attentive and supportive of the residents needs and do everything they can to treat all with dignity.

Top care& attention from all carers & staff. I really couldn't expect a better welcoming into my new home which I'm sure will be long & happy. This makes my family happy knowing that I am happy and comfortable

My mother was a resident in Pear Tree Court for over 6 years. She started on the dementia floor when her journey was in its earlier stages. During this time she was encouraged to remain active and supported in what she believed were her daily cleaning and organising activities. The staff were
patient and understanding even when Mum was confused as to which was her room and would often be found in the wrong room. As her dementia progressed and her health deteriorated she moved to the nursing floor where she received excellent care and support. Whilst the facilities in the home are excellent, from our experience the calibre of the staff is key to the quality of the care home. Almost without exception the staff were brilliant and were clearly dedicated to providing a level of support and care that family are not able to provide. Mum was always treated with dignity & kindness, and was very fond of a number of staff members who had been at Pear Tree for the vast majority of her stay

I am grateful for the care my husband received while he was in residence and living with dementia.
The staff really are adept at keeping their residents amused and entertained, and although my husband kept to himself, he was still able to interact with them. He seemed happy and relaxed, he seemed
to enjoy his time there.

From the moment Dad moved in, the care and support from everyone at the home has been exceptional. The staff are warm, responsive, and genuinely caring, which gives our family enormous reassurance.
One of the things I appreciate most is the daily communication. We regularly receive photos of the
activities Dad has been joining in with, which is incredibly comforting and makes us feel connected to his day-to-day life. The weekly emails outlining the upcoming activities are also a lovely touch and show how much thought goes into keeping residents engaged.
Management and staff are always informative, approachable, and very hands-on. It's clear that there is a strong culture of care and attention throughout the home.
Dad is often taken out in the minibus for trips to garden centres and coffee shops, which he really enjoys, and it's wonderful to know he is still getting out and about. The food offering is also excellent and clearly prepared with care.
Overall, I feel genuinely comforted

It was rewarding to know my grandparents were being looked after to high standard and all staff were friendly and the activities done daily by the team were amazing.
My Grandparents were always happy when we visited and the coffee shop was a plus for family members to beable to meet and have a
nice catch up over Tea & cake.

Well what can I say,absolutely an amazing place with such caring staff they came to our aid with taking in our dad while mum went into hospital and welcomed her when she went to them as well ,as a family we were bowled over with the compassion and care they gave them ,couldn't fault the lovely rooms
and wonderful staff.its more than a home from home it's a lovely community.

In December 2025 after living at Pear Tree Court for one year, my mum had a stroke. When she was discharged from hospital, the nursing and care teams worked hard to understand the changes in Audrey's abilities and needs. They adapted their approach to Audrey's care so that she could regain most of
her speech, the use of her hands, regain a little mobility and the ability to join in with social activities. We could not have hoped for a better outcome.

Pear Tree Court was a fantastic home for my mum who has just had a 2 week stay for respite. (We have also booked a future stay).
We felt heard right from our first contact and were welcomed in. It really does feel like a big family of love and support where needed. All the staff were great and
patient and it was a relief to know that my mum was safe and well cared for. John deserves a special mention as he is so attentive and caring which makes a difficult decision a little easier. Thank you Pear Tree Court.

From the initial visit to Pear Tree Court, everything felt just right for my father's needs. The Management are extremely knowledgeable and efficient, and their staff are diligent, friendly, and always willing to help. The space is clean, bright and cheery and there's an airy environment
throughout. The Café, located near Reception, offers a pleasant spot to relax with your loved ones and overlooks the lovely courtyard garden. There are also many daily activities should the residents wish to participate. At the time of my father's admission, we were unsure how long his stay might be for, and it was of great comfort to learn that should he require additional nursing needs then this could be available to him at Pear Tree Court. It takes time for the care staff to get to know their residents, however they have been really wonderful, and my father has settled in very well.

From the very first day when I contacted Pear Tree Court to enquire about availability at the Care Home I knew Mum was going to be happy here. Pear Tree Court offers everything anyone could require - from excellent care, entertainment, activities, food and good company, whether that be from the
other residents or a chat with staff members. The Home itself is spotlessly clean and Mum was encouraged to bring any home comforts with her. Mum loves the garden and enjoys a wander round it to see the flowerbeds and sit and have a coffee outside while the weather is still good. She also loves seeing the children at Baby and Toddler Group which is held fortnightly to encourage interaction between residents and families. Mum was struggling to manage her own home and her failing eyesight hindered her mobility, and when we first brought Mum to have a look round Pear Tree Court her words were "I should have done this years ago!".

My mum has been at Pear Tree just over two weeks and the change in her is incredible.
Despite a lot of care visits at home my mum was still struggling, since being at Pear Tree she is doing so much better, she is now getting dressed each day, eating and drinking the lovely food and joining in lots
of the activities on offer.
The staff are wonderful and with lots of encouragement mum is now enjoying life in a way that is suitable for her situation, seeing the smile and little grins on her face again is so heart warming.
It was a very tough decision as a family to make this move into care for mum a very emotional journey for us, the staff have understood this and been very supportive to the family as we navigated this process. The support we have had during the visits to choose this home and since mum has been a resident has been fantastic. Thank you Pear Tree

My grandma, is always well looked after and we have a good strong communication between ourselves and the staff at the home. There is always activities on for the residents to do, which I really value as my grandma really benefits with interaction. Staff are always really friendly and polite and
they make a lot of our family when we come to see her.

My mum is looked after very well at Pear Tree. Everyone are very helpful and friendly. The rooms are excellent everything is very clean. We can relax on holiday knowing mum is getting the best care. Very positive experience from Pear Tree Court all staff attentive and professional at all times.

My Uncle has stayed in Pear Tree Court for respite care on a number of occasions when he is not coping at home. He has arrived feeling tired, unwell and undernourished. Within a very short time of arriving he has rallied, feeling better and eating properly. The staff have always kept me informed of
his progress and of any concerns.
11 June 2025
My mum is beginning to settle in at Pear Tree Court. She has had a really good experience with the carers since she moved in to her new home in early May. For me I am very comfortable with the care she is being given and how the home is dealing with her integration. She has many activities in
which to participate and is beginning to make some friends. She really enjoys the food. I am finally now relaxed about her environment and no longer worried about her living at home alone when her mobility had restricted her quality of life so much.
The introduction process, from one member of staff was also a key reason why we joined Pear Tree. Thanks.
13 May 2025
Care home was good and nice environment, good patio in the garden. My room had a good patio door and a nice garden view, it made me feel relaxed and comfortable. Room temperature was perfect.
When I first visited the Care home, the staff gave me a very good introduction and made me feel welcome!
The food deserts had too much sugar for me because I am diabetic. The food quality was generally good.
08 May 2025
The care given to my husband was wonderful, he was in the later stages of Alzheimer's. He was involved in activities that I didn't think he
Would manage but he enjoyed them.
He had a tendency to fall so great care was taken to protect him to avoid injury
My dog and I felt very welcomed in the
nursing home
The GP attended regularly
It meant at the end of his life he was given exceptional care which was a great relief for me
24 April 2025
I have always found the staff open and very approachable to discuss mums care.
All staff are dedicated to ensuring that mum has a good care experience and she has said the food is delicious.
There is a broad spectrum of activities going on every day and mum has the opportunity to engage in
these activities at Pear Tree Court. She particularly enjoys the arts and crafts, knit and natter and gardening activities.

Pear Tree Court has a wonderful atmosphere and energy through out. The manager and the whole team were kind, caring and very helpful. We cannot sing their praises enough. Every member of the staff from reception , cleaners , carers and nurses were wonderful , nothing was too much trouble. My father
experienced a calm and very respectful time on his final journey at Pear Tree Court. We would highly recommend Pear Tree Court to anyone seeking care for a loved one
