My mum sadly had a very short time at Anchor Wharfeside. Shortly after moving into her lovely room her health seriously deteriorated. I cannot praise the staff more for their care, professionalism, support and compassion whilst dealing with 2 separate emergencies. The carers were straight away alerted to my mums symptoms and acted quickly and appropriately. Although we had a very short experience I know had my mum had the time to settle in she would've be taken great care of and been very happy. It's a beautiful place in a gorgeous location and I'm just sorry she didn't have the chance to enjoy some time there in better health. Sadly she passed away earlier this week. Thank you all at Wharfeside who were in some way involved in looking after my mum. We will always be grateful.

Wharfside is a wonderful place where my dad has settled in so well. The staff go above and beyond to ensure all dads needs are met in a happy manner. I cannot speak higher of this place if I tried and would recommend this to any family thinking of moving a family member to Wharfeside. Keep being the lovely care team you are!

The facilities are good, always clean and well maintained- particularly the lovely gardens! Great staff, always very friendly and helpful. Grandma is happy and well cared for.

Warfeside cared for my sister-in-law for six months. She was mostly immobile, couldn't stand or walk. I can't speak highly enough of the care I witnessed weekly by the Wharfeside staff. They were kind, caring and considerate and they treated her always with dignity, humour and respect. I am very grateful for everything they did for her during her, sadly, all too brief stay.

Such an excellent place, from the day mum first moved in to now, everyone has been so lovely, kind and look after mum's every needs she really is happy, which is such a great reassurance. Whenever we come to see mum, there's always something on, mum loves being entertained! There's always laughter and she's very content.

Once again Wharfeside have shown how amazing they are in supporting our Uncle. He has been at Wharfeside for almost a year and is very settled there with staff that really know him and care. There is consistency, dignity and compassion from the whole team. He is currently in hospital and Wharfeside have gone over and above to ensure they can support him and his needs as he returns to Wharfeside. Thank you specifically to two members of staff on Poppy floor and to all the team who continue to support him.

I am very happy with the care that is provided for my dad. Rooms are clean, and the food appears good. Dad's dirty needs are catered for. The staff on Dad's floor (one in particular) are very caring and efficient and meet all of his needs. Communication regarding Dad is good.

Generally, the care is very good. I believe my husband is well looked after by the care staff. I do wonder why staying in this home is so expensive!

My mum-in-law was welcomed by Wharfeside Care Home on palliative care after a brief stay in hospital. All the staff, without exception, were comforting and respectful towards mum and all our family. Their care and understanding throughout her short stay made all the difference to how we spent our final days together and we shall be forever grateful. We were encouraged to visit as often as we needed, nothing was too much trouble and the kettle was always on. The facilities felt more like a lovely hotel, hairdressers, smart cinema room, bar with a view and the rooms were well equipped and peaceful, where we could enjoy some privacy. The communal areas were nicely decorated and spotlessly clean, and all the residents we chatted to were happy and content, it had a real family atmosphere. I would encourage anyone who needs residential care for themselves or a loved one and is anxious as we were, to visit Wharfeside and talk to staff and residents. This is a gem of a place.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the wonderful care you all provided for my uncle, he was a resident with you for 21 months. During his time with you, he called it his home. He loved all the staff, each and every one of you. He thought the food was fantastic and never left anything on his plate. He enjoyed the parties you have throughout the year. Playing dominoes and skittles. I cannot thank you enough for the care respect and compassion you showed towards him and his family during his final days with you.

My cousin has been a very happy resident for 4 years. During the COVID lockdown the staff were amazing - providing the most ingenious ways of keeping up morale- including involving the residents in social media videos. Over the last year as she became more frail the staff have been wonderfully compassionate and caring. My son recently visited with me and was amazed by the comfort and high standard of care as well as stylish surroundings and cleanliness. (Definitely not found everywhere around the country!) I couldn't possibly recommend Wharfeside more highly. It's a superb care home and I'm filled with gratitude.

Just home after a super high tea party at Wharfeside, such a large variety of savouries and salads and cakes, I will not be eating again today. The staff had decorated the dining room with bunting and the tables were laid with pretty cloths and lovely china. Many of the staff had gone into work on their day off (such is their love of the place where they work). All our family are delighted with the care provided. It's such a happy place with lots going on. We are so glad we chose Wharfside, it's so easy to go for a walk by the river or round the market. The food is always a very high standard and always a choice. Thank you to every member of staff for working together to make this a very happy home from home.

We attended a High Tea event with Mum at Wharfeside today on the Poppy floor. The Poppy floor staff had planned the event extremely well. The setting was superb with each resident having the chance to share the event with their family. The atmosphere and food was amazing and a good time was had by all. The staff had all dressed for the occasion making it feel special, some even came in from leave to support the event! We had a really great time as did Mum. Thanks to everyone at Wharfeside for making this such a special occasion.

The staff on poppy floor organised a tea party for residents and their families. It was a fantastic afternoon, with lovely staff who worked very hard making sure everyone was enjoying themselves, especially the residents. A really big thank you to all the staff, carers and catering staff, a really good do.

My mother initially moved into Wharfeside for respite care after a few weeks in hospital. She was quite frail at that time and disoriented, moving into a different home. The staff were very welcoming as were the other residents on her floor. They were also very responsive to my sister and I as we navigated our way around a new place and new ways of doing things. I spent 8 hours a day with Mum for 2 days shortly after she arrived at Wharfeside and so had a good insight into how the home operated. I was invited to join Mum for meals, which surprised but pleased me. The food is good, both quality and choice. Overall I quickly became reassured that Mum was in a good place for her respite care. She was getting stronger and benefitting from the level of care but decided that she did not want to go back to her previous home. Fortunately, a room was available so she is now a permanent resident and is flourishing in the supported environment. This is such a relief to my sister and me.

Lovely atmosphere as always when I visited my Mum at the home today. Strong winds meant a planned garden party had to be cancelled and the kitchen had suffered some structural damage. Despite this adversity, the staff coped amazingly as always and made sure the residents had a lovely buffet inside instead and had a really great singer come to entertain who was brilliant with all the residents. Staff and visitors also enjoyed the show. There is always such warmth from the staff team. I really enjoy spending time with my Mum at Wharfeside. There is a real family feel to the place.

Following a bad fall and a substantial time in hospital my father moved into Wharfeside circa 16 months ago. Firstly the move/transition from hospital was made as simple as possible and my father was made very welcome from day one. This is a purpose-built care home that is second to none in layout and facilities, being able to personalise his ensuite room made the transition a lot easier for my father. Whilst the food is excellent, and cleanliness is always at a high standard the biggest difference we have found in this care home is the staff. From whatever level the staff always find time to engage and encourage residents with a smile on their face.
