Mum had been in Upton Bay for around three years and i could not have asked for a better place for her to be. the staff are all fabulous and looked after mum brilliantly even in her more difficult moments. Of all the tough decisions we had to make as she suffered with dementia, i am 100% confident that we got this one right. super place with super people.

Out mother spent the final four months of her life at Upton Bay, before finally passing away peacefully at the age of 98. She could not have had better care and love, with all her individual needs attended to. Her family and friends were always welcomed 24/7, and we came to feel part of a homely, loving community, able to fully enjoy her last Christmas and celebrate family birthdays together with staff and other residents at the home. Her final passing was managed with the utmost care and respect, supporting the family in every way possible, relieving much of the stress, and helping create some beautiful memories for us all. Thank you so much!

My father became a resident on the Dementia ward at Upton Bay Care home in March 2024 up until his death in January this year. I have to say that the carehome team were all amazing and you truly know that your loved one could not be in a better place Thank Upton Bay . the manager and his team go out of their way to help you and are always on hand if they are needed . My brother and myself cannot thank them enough for all their support that they have shown us and our father . Just Brilliant 1st class service day in day out.

My family and I cannot express out gratitude to all the staff for their care of my dad while he was staying with you. The food was excellent and dad thoroughly enjoyed his day trips out and the activities he did. He also enjoyed his birthday party with you. The rooms and facilities were outstanding. Absolutely no complaints - THANK YOU!

The staff are proactive and caring. My relative is clean and well-presented whenever I visit. She has dementia and seems very contented. The home is clean and everyone is very friendly.

My grandad hasn't be at the care home for a long time but so far, the care home has been excellent. They have really helped him settle in and adjust. The care home is always clean and well-presented. The staff are all very friendly and accommodating. They have encouraged Grandad to interact and socialise with the other residents, there's always plenty going on to keep him occupied with a range of activities or day trips.

My aunt is happy here. She is always looking very well cared for. The home is warm and comfortable as well as very stylishly furnished and decorated. All the staff are friendly, helpful and quick to respond. In particular, I appreciate how well-groomed my aunt is - which shows that the care staff take the trouble not only to do basic washing and dressing but also to ensure she is still the glamorous, immaculate lady which she always has been.

Our mother has lived at Barchester Upton Bay Care Home for almost two years. We, as a family, have been impressed by the constant high standards throughout the home and all its departments. Our mother is happy for her continued residency at Upton Bay and we all look forward to another year of good care, food, activities and company.

Barchester Upton Bay Care Home ladies (and gentlemen) are always so friendly, patient, understanding, nothing is too much for them, that is why I hope to stay much longer than a day, perhaps next year sometime. As an afterthought, the food is very good, especially as I am a person who loves my food - and it is good. All in all, a lovely place to spend your lonely days, whether it be long or short.

After arriving at Barchester Upton Bay Care Home, I immediately thought this place is so much more than just a care home, the staff were amazing and so knowledgeable and couldn't do enough for you. I experienced the food and it was fantastic, better than some fine dining events I've been to. All in all, it's truly five-star and that is down to the staff and management.
08 January 2025
The care home exceeded all expectations with exceptional care, a warm and welcoming environment, attentive staff, and top-notch facilities. A five-star experience that truly prioritizes the well-being and comfort of residents.

Barchester Upton Bay Care Home in Hamworthy is a very modern and well-presented home. In the last two months, my aunt's health and well-being have greatly improved. My aunt is particularly enjoying the meals and the social contact as events are organised regularly. We have both found the staff to be helpful, kind and attentive. Both of us would recommend Upton Bay!

Mum has only been in Barchester Upton Bay Care Home for a couple of weeks on this visit but has previously spent four weeks in residency. Both times, we have found the home to be welcoming, clean and a lovely place to stay. Mum is full of enthusiasm for the arranged activities that are available. Most importantly, Mum is a big favourite of the food on offer - always a good choice of meals available. Overall, could not recommend the home highly enough. Thanks to all the staff.

The environment is beautiful, more luxury hotel than care home. But beyond that, the staff are superb. Super friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Fantastic!

I have been very impressed by everyone at Barchester Upton Bay Care Home regarding their care for my dad since he has been a new resident. The activities, food and general care for individual residents is second to none and I can relax knowing my dad's needs are being taken care of.
