Dad moved to Aarandale in October. He has dementia and had been living at home with 2 full time live in carers, and was not coping. He is now much more settled - I think the routine and activities make a big difference. Everyone is friendly. The nurses are calm, kind and caring - this is what has
made such a huge difference to his happiness, as he can get agitated and anxious, but they are good at managing him in a way that calms him down and maintains his dignity. I would definitely recommend Aarandale.

Aarandale Manor has genuinely changed our lives. They have cared for my mum for the past six years; she is only 66 and living with end-stage progressive multiple sclerosis. I cannot express enough the impact the staff and management have made on her life. They have supported her through every stage
of her illness with patience, dignity, and genuine love. They have gone above and beyond their roles, and have become not just carers, but dear friends. The difference in both her health and mental wellbeing is undeniable.
More recently, my grandfather also became a resident after losing his wife last year and experiencing several falls. At that time, we couldn't see a light at the end of the tunnel. But the carers and staff at Aarandale have given him a new lease of life. He is now happy, safe, and comfortable - something we once weren't sure would ever be possible again.
Kirsty is an outstanding manager, and Claire, Linda, Felicia, and every member of the caring team across all floors

My Mum moved to Aarandale about six months ago. From day one, all the staff have been very welcoming and supportive to her and to us. The standard of care is very good indeed - all the staff are genuinely interested and caring. It is a huge comfort to have an experienced team of nursing staff on
site and to have a GP easily contactable and so close. The activities and entertainment offered are great fun - it's lovely to see my mum participating and also sometimes join in! The easily accessible and very pleasant garden is a huge bonus.

A very welcoming care home. Very friendly staff. A really nice atmosphere.
We speak loudly and have never been told off.
It is a pleasure to visit Bertin Rabee.
There is always plenty of nice food!

I have been a resident in Arandale Manor Care Home for the past four years, the management and staff has been most caring and responsible at all times. I am so grateful to be in such a wonderful environment. Frank.

I have been at Arandale for several months, originally intending to be here for just 2 weeks, but I am still here as it is a really good place to be. My family are very relieved that the care here is excellent, as they don't have to worry about me managing at home on my own.
25 September 2025
My husband has been here for 2 weeks as he is non weightbearing. The nursing care is exceptional. All the staff are helpful and caring.
25 September 2025
Before my dad came here, I went to see about 10 care homes. As soon as I walked into Aarandale Manor, I instantly knew this was the perfect home for my dad. It just felt like home. The atmosphere was so warm and the staff so attentive and caring, and the surroundings beautiful. I can't fault it in
any way and can now sleep at night knowing he's so well cared for.
17 September 2025
I am very satisfied with Aarandale Care Home. My mother 98 years old is very satisfied in living here because of the services you give her and the company she has. Well done to all your staff.

When dad arrived, the team were sensitive and made a positive effort with him and with us all. Your staff made the time to connect with dad and converse with him, it re-built his confidence. You listened when he said he loved gardening and a couple of planters, tools and plants appeared outside his
garden doors!
He was included in activities and you took such care with everything, even seating him during meals so that he had appropriate interaction and could try to relax.
For the record, the staff at Aarandel were caring, attentive and fun and we only have positive feedback for the team.

I really enjoyed my stay as respite after surgery on my knee as a replacement. I felt it was just what the doctor ordered. I think the staff are wonderful and family-oriented. I would return if needed.

My husband has been in Aarandale for ten months. The care and concern shown by the staff has been excellent. As a result, when I come in the home, I am always greeted by a smile, a welcome and sometimes a hug.
My husband is very settled here and they understand and deal with his needs very well.

My mum has been at this care home for two years now and I feel that, as a very regular visitor, I am in an excellent position to provide potential residents and their families with a realistic view of the care that Aarandale has provided and continues to provide to my mother.
Every single member
of staff that I have come into contact with has been extremely caring above and beyond what you would reasonably expect. I love my mother dearly and was her sole carer for over five years. She is my only remaining relative and I love her dearly. The care my mother receives is truly exceptional and it feels like I am leaving her with family when I go to my own home. When I take Mum back to the care home, the staff are really pleased to see her and she is thriving there.
Whilst all the staff have been absolutely wonderful to my mother, a few do deserve special mention, three ladies in particular and a very special Scottish nurse, who actually made me cry with the kindness she showed my mother.

My Grandma has been a resident at Aarandale Manor for many years.
The care is exceptional, the staff and manager are always super friendly, and approachable. It has that great family feel and there is no other care home that we would want her to live in.
I would always praise and highly recommend
Aarandale Manor to anyone needing this service.

I cannot praise the care and attention given to my husband during the 2 plus years he was in Aarandale Manor. The senior staff and carers showed excellent respect to him at all times and their care for him couldn't be better. At the end of his life, the dignity that was given to him was outstanding.
As a daily visitor to my husband, the staff were always most respectful and kept me updated on his condition. I would never hesitate to recommend Aarandale Manor to anyone. Well done to everyone involved in my husband's care, particularly his end-of-life care.
31 October 2024
Since my time of being here, I found the service excellent, sorry to be dull and boring but I find Aarandale is fab.
29 October 2024
My family and I have been surprised with the friendly, kind and excellent service provided by all the staff and management. I am well aware of the personal needs I have to keep to a strict vegetarian and selective fish menu and again they are extremely helpful. All this including the personal help
given to me makes for absolute satisfaction.

This is the third care home where Mum has been placed. The first one no-one bothered to know Mum and she became depressed. The second one the care was good but the cleanliness was extremely poor and was not adequate for her needs. At Aarandale Manor everything is what she needs. The carers are
sympathetic and nice. She is really happy here and for the first time, I saw her smile. I strongly recommend Aarandal and I'm happy to be of any assistance. She has been here for nearly a year.
22 October 2024
I am very grateful now my client is being cared for. She was extremely lucky when they made a memorabilia day for her for who she is - she is always clean and cared for - the food is excellent and she enjoys it and always finishes her plate!
11 October 2024
Due to a broken arm and other medical conditions, I needed respite care. As I came from the hospital the nurses were excellent for changing my dressing and removing sutures. They have an activities manager and he arranges interesting outings. The food was good and their omelettes were delicious. I
have no hesitation in recommending this home for their professional care.
