"Both my father and my mother moved into Cherry Blossom Manor in January 2018. My mother suffers from dementia and my father has vascular Dementia following a brain haemorrhage. My father recently passed away and the general care and the nursing care he received at Cherry Blossom Manor was excellent, particularly in his last few days. Likewise, the care my mother receives is excellent, due to the dementia, she is anxious a lot of the time and forgets that my father has died. The carers do a good job of keeping her as calm as possible."

"We would like to thank you for your amazing care of mum in the 3 weeks she was in Cherry Blossom. She was looked after in a lovely, caring way and with dignity at the end. I would like to thank the doctor on duty on 27/28th February - it was exceptional. To the manager - behind every great leader is a fantastic team and without exception, your staff are a credit to you. We are forever grateful that mum was in your care until the end of her days."

"My father-in-law was recently bereaved. The what the situation was handled was exemplary and the care and compassion shown to dad in the days and weeks since is great. They could not do more. Dad is staying in the home as he regards it as "his" home. Highly recommended."

"Every member of staff are more than helpful and try in difficult circumstances to give my mother the best care possible and if there is a problem they try their hardest to solve it. And everyone is caring, friendly to their service users and their family and mostly it's done with a smile, which makes all the difference."

"Having seen and experienced many care homes, this is by far the best I've ever experienced or seen. It is homely and the staff are very caring. The food is good and plentiful. The residents are treated with dignity and respect and more important kindness. It is not perfect but by far the best I've ever experienced."

"After my mother arrived here, even after 36 hours I saw an improvement in her condition. The staff are attentive, caring and friendly. The rooms and location are excellent. Such a relief after a busy hospital ward, to know that she is now being properly cared for in a purpose-built facility with staff who are both conscientious and caring."

"We did have a few issues on the first 3 days of my father being here. Eg soft food only and to be assisted when eating. Forgot to give prescription protein drink until I mentioned this plus all of the above was in his notes for staff to read. Once I had a talk with the staff and manager on day 3, all was sorted. The staff are really lovely but let it down by not reading his notes. He was only here for 8 days in total."

"My mother stayed at Barchester Cherry Blossom Manor for respite care following my hospitalisation as she had lived with me for the past 14 years and now aged 92 years was unable to live alone and care for herself. She was made very welcome from the start, the manager and her staff being so friendly, caring and attentive throughout her stay there. They are a credit to her company."

"I enjoyed the room with a wet room but the latter was a bit small. The room was well decorated; there were more activities available, though I was unable to participate due to having a urinary infection and being bedbound for 5 days. Generally, the staff were caring and thoughtful. I had some concern when my tablets were found on the floor and table (3). Unfortunately, after returning home I have been admitted to hospital with blood clots in my lungs and heart, possibly brought on by being immobile during my infection."

"My cousin was here for seven weeks and from when she arrived she was made very welcome. The staff were exemplary of their care of her. The nursing staff looked after her very well and were very supportive and caring. She was very happy with all of the carers, office staff, meals and maintenance. She particularly loved the entertainment. We are so very grateful for all the love and care she received."

"I know that my husband would join me in saying a huge thank you for the wonderful surprise on celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary (I came with my usual cheese sandwich!). The balloons are very happy standing in the living room, the flowers and cards also. The cake was delicious and so was the lunch (unexpected but lovely) and despite being diabetic, my sugar level was normal so what turned out to be a lovely day to see turned out to be a day to remember. Thank you all once again. What lovely people you are."

"We found the staff professional, approachable and compassionate at all times when it came to looking after the needs of my stepmother, making a home away from home. The entertainment and the hairdresser helped to provide a variety to make the stay a good one. The gardens are well maintained, full of flowers providing a delightful, peaceful place to sit. The place was always clean and tidy, the rooms are modern and cheerful and the meals provided were of a very high standard. The Café provided a really nice break from the room. This was always well stocked with yummy cakes and drinks."

"I came to visit my grandmother on Sunday 15/7/18. As usual, carers were very polite, my nan was well presented and seemed in a good mood. I stayed with my Nan whilst she had her lunch, which she usually enjoys very much. The head chef here is great and always very accommodating towards my nan's needs and requests. However, this Sunday my nan was very disheartened at lunchtime. The pork was very tough, which I was shocked at as it’s usually very soft, the mash was like water and when I questioned what was going on as the food is normally great, I was told a new chef had been taken on board. I hope he is receiving adequate training as to me and to my nan it didn’t seem like he knew how to cook correctly for the elderly. I really hope this is sorted as my nan is very happy at Cherry and I am also happy with the care she receives. This is the first time we have had any issue at Cherry and I hope now it’s been addressed that it won’t be a regular thing. Apart from that, thumbs up to all the staff."

"The care and nursing staff are really good. My mother-in-law (advanced dementia) is always treated with kindness and respect. My father-in-law is very happy there. There are a large range of activities (both in the home and outside) which are really well thought through and organised."

"There never seems to be sufficient care staff to deal with the morning duties, like getting out of bed and washing/dressing. It is understood that the reason is frequent staff sickness of 20 - 40 per cent which may be due to lack of motivation and commitment to service. Management is never seen around the facility checking on status - but always within the office. Some care staff/nurses are very good and attentive."

He enjoys regular visits from his 'beautiful wife', who he just said to me that he has had a 'wonderful life' with my mum and although they now have to live apart, his wife brightens his day when she visits Dad and we are pleased with the kind, loving, cheerful care Dad has received."

"Although our dear dad/grandad was not in the home for very long before he passed away, he was cared for well and felt that he had settled in well. We visited most weekends en masse, daughter, grandchildren, great-granddaughter and our dog whom Dad was immensely fond of and were always made to feel so welcome. We enjoyed having lunch with him and nothing seemed to be too much trouble and staff always greeted us with a smile. Thank you."

We have spoken to the carers on many occasions, they are very helpful! They often have comforting words when things can be a little stressful and upsetting. They always make time to speak to you. We have also heard that the food is very good! Compliments to the chef!"

"The care and attention that all members of staff give to my in-laws is second to none. The encouragement to assist and ensure a quality of life from all staff to my mother-in-law has given her confidence to join in and my father-in-law is encouraged to play the piano and enjoy films."

"My stay here I can only judge from my own physical condition at that time. The accommodation was excellent but limited by the abilities of the other occupants. This reduced the moral chance of forming social contact with other people. Very good but very limited choice owing to few people in a similar situation to my own."

"This care home manages my mother's personal needs 24/7 including regular services and nursing. My mother is treated in many kind ways by all the staff and has maintained a good relationship with ourselves in order to cooperate on timing, visits and events. I have encouraged the home to create a musical extension to their regular timetable and help by playing the piano which is appreciated as well. The Christmas Party this year was well organised and the standard of fun exceptional. I have participated in regular events about dementia training. The communication between different layers of staffing could be improved sometimes when my outsider view is challenged but I do not hold this as a severe criticism."

"The whole experience of moving mum from another home after 2 weeks was a positive one. We arrived without an appointment late one Sunday night to be shown around the home. The move was made easy and stress-free by the staff including Manager, Admin, Reception and Matron.
