"A very good friend of mine is currently a resident at The Spires. From the very first day she arrived, she has been treated with a great deal of care and empathy. Every member of staff I have had contact with has been professional and caring. I would definitely recommend The Spires, it's a lovely place and I hope that if ever I needed this level of care, I would be in such a place."

"Respite care was needed at short notice. The staff were eager to help with our needs and to accommodate us at short notice. This desire to help and go the "extra mile" was evident in all of our dealings with the home. The facility itself is of high quality. But the real difference was the staff. All staff were wonderful, professional and caring. Thank you."

"Mum has settled very well at Barchester The Spires. We were very uncertain about whether the next stage of care should be permanent but feel greatly reassured by the care mum has experienced in the last few months staff are all lovely and show great empathy with residents. Mum has made new friends and is very well looked after 24/7. We are able to enjoy her company again and it is lovely to see her happy and content."

"All staff are very friendly and helpful. The room is clean and well maintained. Food is excellent and to be able to eat in your room, if needed, is comforting. Activities sound excellent but I have not had time to be involved."

"My mother stayed for a weeks respite and had a lovely time. We have already booked again! The home is in a nice setting with modern facilities. The rooms and communal areas have a comfy, homely feel to them and my mother settled in straight away. The staff were kind and patient."

"My Mum who has Alzheimer's disease stayed for one week to see what benefits The Spires could offer her. The care and support given throughout the week were outstanding and we are now considering a permanent placement. All staff were caring and professional and made my Mom feel happy and contented throughout her stay. Food and activities were excellent and I was made to feel very welcome every time I visited. Thank you."

"My mum couldn't be in better hands, she is safe and has amazing three-course meals she has a lovely social circle. The staff are attentive, patient and nothing is too much trouble. I don't have to worry as I know my mum is in the safest of hands. It's like a big family. I can't thank The Spires enough for all they do, they really and truly are amazing. Thank you."

"My mother came to The Spires for respite care for two weeks. I visited at various times and the residents were always content and very well cared for. The staff showed genuine dedication and always welcoming and kind. Nothing was too much trouble. The calm and peaceful atmosphere was reassuring and enabled me to leave my mother in their care without worry. When I went to fetch my mother home, she had blossomed and was so alert and content that I extended her stay. Being able to book respite care up to a year in advance is wonderful. Also knowing that my mother will enjoy herself and receive high-quality care, wonderful food, all provided in homely, comfortable surroundings is worth more than any amount of money can buy. The Spires is a perfect example of what a care home should be like and I would have no hesitation to recommend it. I hope this review helps anyone considering respite/permanent care and reassures them that there is nothing to worry about at The Spires. Thank you."

"A two-week stay at The Spires has been an excellent way for my cousin to give serious consideration to her future care needs. I am pleased she accepted this opportunity to experience 24-hour support. She is not yet ready to surrender her independence but has appreciated the benefits. The location is very good, easily accessible too."

"Mum came to The Spires initially for respite following a rather nasty water infection. She has Dementia and lived alone in Pelsall. Whilst in hospital, the Dementia was diagnosed and then everything fell into place. For her safety and well being my sister and I decided that The Spires was the place for her. She loves talking to people, singing and dancing. The Spires Care Home is brilliant. Mum refers to it as her Hotel. The decor is splendid the facilities are amazing especially the spa bath. She can often be heard singing in the bath!!! Mum loves the spa bath with coloured lights and bubbles. The staff are wonderful so caring and friendly. Nothing is too much for them. Mum thankfully has loads of visitors and everyone loves to go and see her especially with the bistro area they've got. Lovely drinks and homemade cakes and coffee - just help your self!!! I've been to a number of care homes before choosing The Spires and without a doubt, this is the Ritz of care homes."

"My mother took a little while to settle in (after all, she has looked after herself for 95 years!), but now says she is very happy - and it shows! She cannot speak highly enough of all the staff, who look after her with care and personal attention."

"From the moment we walked through the door we were made more than welcome by the receptionist. We were then shown around the building and it was like walking around a 5-star hotel. The manager came to visit our home to see my mum and her care, compassion and understanding was wonderful. Mum spent 12 days respite in The Spires whilst we were on holiday and I can honestly say from friends who visited her they all gave glowing reports regarding the staff. I cannot praise the staff more highly - very professional. I certainly would recommend The Spires to anyone - wonderful."

"I came for post-op care following spinal surgery. I needed personal care help, rest, good food and most importantly - high-level cleanliness. All my needs were met and exceeded due to top class care in a dignified manner. Would not hesitate to recommend The Spires Care Home. Grateful thanks to all."

"My mum, who has dementia, moved to The Spires from another care home. The difference in her is amazing. She's now happy; singing, dancing, eating well and generally interacting with staff and other residents. I feel I have my mum 'back'. I can't thank everyone at The Spires enough for making a difficult situation so much more manageable. The care and attention is second to none and the environment is fantastic. I would highly recommend."

"I thoroughly enjoyed my two-week break at The Spires, the accommodation was first class, as was the food. The staff were all friendly, nothing was too much trouble and every effort was made to involve everyone with what was going on. I had lots of family visit and they were all made very welcome. I will be returning."

"My family and I had to make the hardest decision we have ever had to make about placing in mum into care. This heart-wrenching decision was made easier due to the sensitive and highly trained staff. The home is beautiful it does not feel like a care home more like a 5-star hotel. The whole process from our first visit without mum to the day she moved in. This is a happy home not only because of the excellent highly trained staff making living there a fabulous environment but how it is presented. There are plenty of activities to occupy mum and keep her happy which was very important to us as mum needs stimulation and company to reassure her, particularly during those periods when family are not visiting. Staff are dedicated, highly trained and clearly love their jobs. I would recommend a visit here if anyone is contemplating care home living. Thank you to all the staff that have helped not only mum but us as a family to do one of the hardest things we have ever had to do."

"We refer to The Spires as Dad's hotel. The people that work there, the decor, the facilities, the grounds, the cleanliness and the service has been nothing less than 5*. As a family, our minds are at rest knowing Dad is being well looked after in a beautiful environment, with 5* treatment. Thank you, Barchester for making this possible!"

"To put Dad into a home was an extremely hard decision to make. However, the warm and genuine care staff have made the transition easy for both Dad and the family. Dad seems extremely happy at The Spires Care Home which speaks for its self and is the best review I can give."

"Choosing a Care home is one of the hardest and most traumatic decisions to make. My Mum (95) has been in residence at The Spires for a week so it's still very early days. That said, however, I have nothing but praise for the staff (no matter what their role). They are caring and attentive. Mum will often say how kind everyone is. They are quick to provide company if someone is on their own. Food and drinks are of a very high standard and visitors are able to enjoy complimentary refreshments from the cafe area. Our family are made most welcome - including dogs and babies! Little details have been considered such as net laundry bags & tiny tags in clothing - not a marker pen or name-tape in sight! We are looking forward to being able to spend time with Mum doing normal things that families do, now that the burden and worry of being solely responsible for an elderly frail person has gone."
