For anyone thinking of this care home for a relative or friend, honestly do not hesitate. My Dad sadly only managed 4 weeks here, but wow what an amazing and special time that was for him and us. Absolutely everything about the place is just beautiful. The staff are incredible, caring and thoughtful and this extended to our family and friends who visited Dad. They made us feel so welcome, so at home and so comfortable and we were always made to feel part of Broomfield village family. My Dad really got his sparkle back here for his final weeks and that was down to this amazing care home, friendly caring professional staff and the beautiful surroundings and facilities. I had no idea care homes existed like this. Broomfield Village is a very special place, it will always have a place in my heart and I will always be thankful for finding this wonderful home.

Mum has been living at Broomfield Village for 4 months now, and we are very happy that we chose this care home for her. Since moving in her needs have increased, and the staff have adapted to this and cared for her cheerfully and professionally. I would urge anyone looking for a care home for a loved one to visit Broomfield Village and see the level of care in action, and see the lovely facilities for themselves.

My mother had always wanted to end her days at her home where she had lived for over 50 years. This played on my mind, and I was very reluctant to consider residential care homes as my experience was limited to media horror stories. The moment I walked into Broomfield Village, and I met the staff, I knew we had found the right place. It was the only home we had seen where I knew I would not feel guilty leaving my mother. The staff made her feel at home, got her into a wheelchair to join group activities and meals and we were able to take her into the garden, things which we could never have done if she had stayed at home. Later when she was unable to get out of bed, the staff would spend time sitting with her. The facilities were fantastic for the residents but also for the families, including young children. I cannot praise all the staff highly enough, they were all so loving and thoughtful. When it mattered, they were there for my mother but also for my family and me.

My cousin in law / best friend needed a new home due to her last not meeting her needs. From the start Mary and her team were amazing. As her Lpa i wanted to find her the perfect new home. I was recommended to Broomfield Village by another residents daughter and I'm so happy I made the call. The staff are always so warm and friendly, they are engaging and so supportive and welcoming. Bv is another world compared to other homes , they offer a 5 star service. They have so much to offer everyone , it doesn't feel like a care home it feels like a luxury hotel. As a family it's so lovely to see L in beautiful surroundings being so well cared for by amazing staff who really care. The home is filled with love , kindness , empathy and compassion. Bv truly go above and beyond for there residents, I highly recommend Bv to anyone wanting a loved one or themselves to have a wonderful rest and be well looked after. I am so glad we found you Bv thank you .

First impressions are that the staff are all very welcoming and friendly. They go out of their way to ensure that new residents settle in quickly. The surroundings are lovely and it really doesn't feel like care home at all. The restaurant and catering facilities are excellent. The nursing team treat residents with dignity and respect. They get to know resident and seem genuinely interested in the person and their life.

My Mum has been resident at the Broomfield Village Care Home for 3 weeks now. The experience has surpassed our greatest hope. It is such a beautifully designed home, with wonderful interior design. Every aspect of our dealings with the car home and staff have been fantastic. All the staff are lovely. The care my Mum has received has been exemplary. The care home is like a five star hotel. It is a joy to visit my Mum. I can't imagine my Mum staying anywhere else. We feel very fortunate to have found such an exceptional place.

An imposing building, with a spacious entrance hall and reception. On arrival each time the welcome is warm and friendly. The room my wife occupies is very comfortable and clean, with a fully equiped bathroom. There is ample storeage space for clothes etc. A door leads to a small patio with table and chairs, and a newly planted garden which is well maintained. There is a pleasant dining room with menus for lunch & supper changed daily with a "light bites" menu as an alternative. In addion a garden tea room is available. The carers and other staff are friendly & efficient and ready to meet the various demands with a smile and warm words of comfort.

My mother stayed here for 6 weeks following a fall where she broke her upper arm. I called the care home after an online search as the hospital were discharging her and I didn't feel confident she could return home on her own. Following the call, the home sent someone to assess her in hospital that afternoon and she moved in the next day, the home were extremely swift. Having not visited the home before arriving with my mother we were both blown away by the wonderful interior design and welcome by the staff. We were greeted by the head nurse carer whos experience shone through I was very reassured that she was going to be in good hands. Subsequently this member of staff acted quickly when mum needed to return to a&e where a carer stayed with her the whole time. The in house Physo helped her to recover. And the in house hair and nails made her feel her best. The restaurant manager was excellent. Every member of staff there is wonderful!! I can not speak highly enough

A very good experience all round. Every member of staff always welcoming (most knowing my name), friendly, and very helpful. Nothing was ever too much trouble. I enjoyed the lunches I had with my husband and have made many new friends - both staff and residents.
18 June 2025
I experienced from all staff members kindness and generosity. Everyone knew me by name & was very friendly, despite sometimes low staffing levels due to the Care Home's only recent opening. A very lovely atmosphere.

I moved into Broomfield village on the 9th of April 2025, from previous experience of being in hospital/care home settings, I have found this to be a completely new and comforting experience to the extent that I am oversleeping and the care team with their tolerance are having to give me a good shake to fully awake me. This is positive, as I have previously had difficulty sleeping. This is the first time for years that I have actually slept well. The maintenance and housekeeping team deserve credit for all they did to create the comfort, the care team for supporting my sleep, the support bed is second to none.

I cannot praise Broomfield Village highly enough. It is a beautiful space, warm and welcoming with a calm atmosphere.The rooms are spacious and comfortable and you are encouraged to personalise them to help the resident feel more at home. But more importantly, the staff are exceptional. So kind and caring, they tailor their care to the individual. They are always available to discuss any concerns and give reassurance if needed. My mother has particularly enjoyed the food since being there. I have also been able to join her for some meals and can happily say the food is of an excellent quality. I now have peace of mind that my mother is in the best place possible and is receiving excellent all round care.
24 April 2025
My mum has been in your care for 6 weeks now and although not totally settled the care she is receiving is fantastic. Everyone is so helpful, friendly and understanding, and always putting mums needs first. It's wonderful to see her happy and know she is in a safe environment. My thanks to the team who are all fabulous.

I must say, having read all the wonderful reviews i was sceptical when we arranged our initial visit. Its not often that you cant find fault now days. But, I have to agree with every review posted.

I would like to reiterate that the staff are exceptional, and take the time to get to know the residences on a personal level and make it feel like there own home. Thank you, and Please keep up the good work

The home looked like a 5 star hotel and provided an excellent level of personal service. Every member of staff was polite, professional and extremely helpful, nothing was too much for them. I was extremely pleased with the first class care that my brother received throughout his stay. Although on the end of life care, he was happy, comfortable and very well cared for in his private room. Everyone there went above and beyond the call of duty to nurse and care for him throughout his stay. When sadly my brother passed away, every member of staff showed their respect by lining up as he was taken away on his final journey. I can't thank you enough for your kindness, care and professionalism.

From the moment the customer relationship manager welcomed us to Broomfield Village through to our mum's first week as a resident - we have been bowled over! Mum has 6 daughters & we have all been welcomed. Broomfield feels like home - it is warm and inclusive. The staff are professional & skilled and yet relaxed and approachable. We love that there is an open invitation to eat with our mum & other residents, or to hang out in the beautiful coffee bar. Mum has 15 great grandchildren so having the little kids area is inspired! And being able to watch a film together in the comfortable cinema room, with a bountiful supply of sweets, drinks & ice-creams from the "Sweet Shop" is magical! In just a week mum has had her hair & nails done, joined in gardening, baking, mini golf & music & movement! The physical support given to mum for her care & mobility needs is fantastic, & given with dignity, kindness & respect. We can relax in the knowledge that mum is very well looked after and her family is always made welcome.

The Broomfield village care home is outstanding. Most importantly the team are absolutely brilliant, they are friendly, helpful, caring and are highly trained and qualified staff. When looking for a care home there were none comparable. It is also of note that community links have been forged prior to the opening of the facility and that organisations are starting to come to sessions on site and residents are having visits to groups and facilities off site. My stepfather is very happy and well cared for and has enjoyed all the opportunities that he has been offered, including trips out and being able to cut the ribbon on the grand opening launch of Broomfield. I have seen a remarkable transformation in his well-being. He loves the food and the pampering as well as the superb care that he is given. Regular news is also easily accessible via a family App and this helps you to feel connected to your loved one and involved in their welfare.

Our first visit to Broomfield Village Care Home was overwhelming. The decor and ambience in the home are equivalent to a top-of-the-range, five-star hotel. The residents' rooms are very roomy and well laid out, the facilities in the home are numerous and of high quality. The staff are, without exception, professional, friendly and extremely helpful. The food is also of a very high quality with a varied menu. We cannot praise the home and its environment enough, Please keep up your excellent work.

Simply the best. We spent a long time researching and visiting luxury care homes, we even used respite periods to really see if these other homes lived up to our high expectations in all areas. Only Broomfield Village Care Home ticked all the boxes. The care, staff and management in all departments are helpful, professional, knowledgeable and approachable, they all treat Mum with dignity, allowing her to help herself and stepping in when they see she needs some encouragement or guidance. Broomfield is a luxurious family community of the highest standards. The building is designed to create an environment that's welcoming to all residents and their families, including children. When visiting, we often stay for lunch, free of charge, with Mum, like a family should (most homes do not allow this). There are many free extras, like hairdresser, chiropody, sweet/ice cream shop, toy/play area, cafes, cinema. Broomfield updates us using an app. They post photos/videos daily and send messages to keep us involved and informed.
