Mum spent her final months at Overstone House and the care she received was amazing. The staff always had a smile and Mum was always laughing. When Mum was ill the care provided by the staff and management went further to include the whole family which was greatly appreciated. Knowing how much they
cared was wonderful.

Love coming to visit my partners grandad at the home. The staff are always very welcoming and happy to help in anyway. Recently held a birthday party for him and they helped organise food and decorations and made the day feel very special for him and us alike.
Always lots of events and
entertainment going on for the residents and plenty that we can get involved in also.
The annual dog show being a particular favourite with people from the surrounding communities bringing along their pets to enter. With prizes and rosettes given out to winners. All the residents come out to watch and it creates a real garden party atmosphere.

Upon entering Overstone House, a beautiful vibe. All staff so helpful and just lovely. Staff actively encourage my mum to take part in everything which is wonderful to see. Mum's room, warm and inviting and kept very nice. Mum is kept lovely with the personal care provided, and she enjoys the
meals, and eating in the invited environment, with the other residents. Mum is treated with dignity and all my queries dealt with promptly. So far after only joining in December a beautiful experience.

Mum was quite unwell in December with chest pains and staff very good dealing with her and taking appropriate action. Plenty of Christmas activities on for all to enjoy whatever level of ability. Young male singer is exceptionally good with all the residents and if unable to get up will give them
instruments to use, so all included. Management easy to approach and discuss any concerns. Receptionist always give a lovely welcome as do all the staff.

Excellent facilities, caring, dedicated and friendly staff. Care personalised, to create as familiar an environment as possible. The choice and frequency of events ensure that there is something interesting for all.

I am a visitor to Peter and a good friend of Aline's. I constantly see great workers, great work, and consistent attention to staff. Treating residents so well. Super standards and awareness to families concerns. Staff respond quickly, especially Kieron, who sped off to Wellingborough to sort
Peter's glasses that broke.

My mother has been a resident since January 2025. She entered the home following a major stroke and needed assistance with many areas of her daily life. Unable to move independently initially, she is now able to walk short distances using a walking frame. She was underweight on admission but due to
the tasty, healthy meals she is receiving (she loves her food) she is now at an acceptable weight.
She enjoys the many stimulating activities that are on offer, which are keeping her active both physically and mentally.
We are thankful to all the staff who contribute to mum's care they have all paid a part in the vast improvement we have seen in her since she first arrived.
The staff are very approachable and we feel able to discuss any aspect of mum's care we may have queries over .They always contact us promptly if they have any concerns.

My Dad has Alzheimer's and came on respite but his health deteriorated slightly and he is now a permanent resident of Overstone House and I'm very glad he is.
The home is modern, more closely resembling a hotel and the staff are very knowledgeable, caring, helpful and very upbeat.
Dad is so much
better overall now he's not trying to struggle on at home on his own and he's much more stimulated mentally too.

My father in law went in as respite but due to some health complications he has decided the best thing to do is to become a permanent resident as he is so happy there. Care staff and care home are amazing and my husband is now relieved to know his dad is being looked after and he now has no worries
about him being at home on his own.

Dad entered overstone house as a respite care initially but due to his issues with Alzheimer's, his mobility and his stubbornness he is now a full time resident and is looking better than he has done in years of us trying to care for him at home. He is more than happy with his room the care provided
and the carers, the company of other residents and other residents family members that all interact with him. It really is like one big happy family. As for the staff, the care, the rooms and the actual overall home is truly amazing. As a family we couldn't be happier to rest now knowing dads looked after and actually enjoying being there at overstone house!
BRILLIANT LOVELY PLACE!!

All staff and management are just lovely! Very caring- we couldn't wish for another place for our mum to be cared for! Your staff really do care! Highly recommended! My only complaint is the cost is very very expensive x

Mum moved in here in January 2024. We did not need to look anywhere else it felt right the moment we walked through the door. A wonderful warm atmosphere welcomes you into this modern spacious home. The care given by all members of staff and even 'behind the scenes' staff is far beyond what you
expect. Mum described it as 'like being in a hotel being looked after by family'. She enjoyed the laughter and fun during her time here. It put us at ease knowing she was happy here. In her final days in December 2024, Mum and all the family were surrounded by love care and compassion from all the staff and could not be faulted.
The coffee and cake offered is always a treat.

Overall, attention good, didn't need too much care but could get it if needed, I was here for respite. Staff were all pleasant, food was good.
23 January 2025
The care at the home during December in my aunties last days was exemplary. She was treated with much love and dignity as were all the relatives that visited her at the home.
She passed away in a safe, happy environment with all the family around her.
She had been a resident for 18 months and had
been very happy at Overstone House, the staff were very caring and loved having her around.

My mother passed away peacefully on December 18th at Overstone House. The care she received in the 19 months she was at the home was exemplary. The attention to detail awarded to mum was above and beyond our expectations. When it was obvious mums time was coming to an end the love and dedication
from the whole team was very much felt and appreciated by the family. We cannot thank them enough for all they have done.

Mum and Dad spent their last few months at Overstone House, having moved from Leicester to be close to us. Others have spoken about the excellent facilities already, but what shines the most are the team of carers. They became so much more than that. They became not only Mum and Dad's extended
family, but ours as well. We felt as cared for, and as looked after as Mum and Dad. Especially in their last days. We cannot thank our extended family enough.

My friends are a married couple and were both classed as bed-bound when admitted last September. The man is now back to normal physically and the woman is walking with carer assistance. The care they are receiving is amazing. I hope a new activities person will be appointed soon as that used to be
brilliant. They are still receiving visits from the dog, entertainers, florist etc.

Mum has been a resident since January 2024. The day we looked around with mum, myself and my sister, thought that Overstone House is like a hotel for the elderly. The staff are caring and compassionate, and nothing is too much trouble. Communication is excellent and we know that should there be a
problem, we would be contacted straight away. Mum loves to chat with the other residents or the staff who make time to talk to her.
Anyone looking for a care home for their relative, in my opinion, would struggle to find a better one than Overstone House.
