"Such a wonderful team. The staff have cared for my friend extremely well and are always quick to adjust to her changing needs and care. Even after her passing, they continued to help and offer support in the difficult days afterwards. I have enjoyed visiting, using the new visiting pod and the gardens are tranquil and well kept. Everyone there have been very helpful and a big support when things get difficult. I cannot praise them enough. Many thanks in these difficult times."

"I visited this home prior to COVID-19 and with both the old and new management team to see my old friend’s mum, my friend and I have noticed a positive difference in the feel of the home. The residents appeared well cared for and staff were attentive. It is heartwarming to know my friend can still keep in touch with their mum via Skype, FaceTime and even garden visits. We have regular updates from our friends about their mum and that she is keeping her spirits up in the home. I look forward to being able to visit again soon!"

"All staff in the home, whatever their role, have shown that they have my relative's best interests at heart. They interact with her in a professional, caring, empathetic and friendly way. They are always happy to stop and chat with her visitors. They remember us and we always feel welcome whether we are expected or not. Before Covid-19 restricted events, there was always a full programme of activities and my relative was encouraged to participate, during this period some activities have been maintained as far as possible. During the Covid-19 period they have acted very professionally and have implemented ways in which we can see and chat to our relative using video calls or garden visits."

Sue Scarehome.co.uk rating: 5 out of 5

"My wife has been at the Cedars for over 3-years, and I and my family, have been extremely pleased with the Cedars and the standard of care and professionalism is excellent. We have nothing to compare the Cedars with because this is the only care home we have used. It is a very well established home where the staff have a very low turnover, some having worked there for many years. The management team is young and enthusiastic and commands the fullest respect of the carers and nurses. It is a traditional style of building with modern adaption, and it makes for a friendly atmosphere, and it is not like so many homes, which are very smart but have a rather cold feeling. If you are lucky enough to obtain a room, you will not be disappointed."

John Wcarehome.co.uk rating: 5 out of 5

"The Cedars has provided a safe and caring environment for my friend - who sadly has dementia. On a practical basis, she has a lovely room, with personal belongings carefully arranged. She is well cared for and very well fed! There are good activities and opportunities for engagement with others. Most importantly - she sees the staff as her friends - always dropping by to have a chat and make her smile. She is, I believe, happy living at The Cedars - which she regards as a Hotel!"

I cannot recommend The Cedars highly enough."

"My mum was a resident of the Cedars for a short time, but from the moment it was known she would be going there, the manager rang me and kept me informed every step of the way as with Covid-19 going on I could not take or see my mum. It was the best place for my mum to have been with their nursing and care staff and she was well looked after. I cannot thank the manager and her staff enough for all they have done for Mum, they are a brilliant team and I would have no hesitation in recommending The Cedars to anyone."

"Our very dear aunt has been at The Cedars for some time. When she went there, she was very down and had no interest in much. Since making The Cedars her home, her improvement has been amazing, she now joins in with the activities and is always happy. I can only put this down to the wonderful care she has received. The care staff at The Cedars are amazing people, nothing is ever to much trouble, they can always make time to talk to our aunt. The management team are always on hand to answer any questions we may have. During this difficult time when we cannot visit, the home has made it possible for us to speak to our aunt via video. The Cedars have made the safety and wellbeing of the residents during the pandemic their number one priority, we can never thank them enough."

William Ccarehome.co.uk rating: 4.92 out of 5

"My Aunt has been resident at The Cedars for two and a half years following a serious road traffic collision with a car whilst crossing the road. After hospitalisation for several weeks, she moved to The Cedars at her request. The staff were superb in welcoming her and nursing her back to good health. She recently had her 95th birthday but no one from family or friends could attend due to the current Coronavirus situation. The staff made up for her not seeing family by making her day very special, in spite of the pressure they are currently under. My Aunt is full of praise for the Home Manager and her team for the way she is being cared for, particularly at this time. I would have no hesitation in recommending this home."

"My father was found a room at The Cedars on discharge from hospital. I was there to meet him when he arrived and I could see he did not recognise his surroundings and was confused. My father was already suffering from a Mental Health issue. The staff greeted him sympathetically and with great compassion and settled him into his room. My father was 90 years old and frail but they offered him and myself a cup of tea and biscuits immediately. My fathers health was deteriorating quickly but all of the staff gave the very best of care and until the passing of my father, some 10 weeks later. He was so frail but he passed without a blemish on his body, this is always a sign of excellent care. Whenever we visited, we found my father was very clean and tidy, also his bedding and room and drinks were always available for him. When we visited, from the Manager to the care staff and receptionist, everyone had time for you and was willing to listen and answer any queries. I would most definitely recommend The Cedars for care."

"A warm, friendly and welcoming home. Staff are professional but friendly and approachable and always have time to listen to any concerns and act upon them. Mum is having trouble eating (lost her appetite) and all the staff who deal with her, are encouraging her to eat. The head chef/cook has been in with the list of food on offer and trying anything to get her to eat and willing to make anything she fancies."

"My Mum went into The Cedars Care Home in Dec 2019. The welcome we received was just wonderful. All levels of staff from the manager to the cleaners greeted us with warm smiles and cheerful hellos. They were all expecting Mum and already knew her name, making her instantly feel at home and putting our minds at ease knowing that she was in safe hands and cared for. Her room was spotless and homely with a vase of fresh flowers on her arrival. The day rooms are all bright and spacious and have fantastic views of the gardens and wildlife. There's also a hairdresser on site. The meals are varied and smell delicious, each table is beautifully laid. There are regular activities and entertainment, Mum particularly enjoyed the local school children visiting at Christmas and singing carols. Everyone that has visited Mum has commented on the friendliness and compassion each member of staff shows her, nothing is ever too much trouble. I can't praise this care home enough."

He is spotlessly clean and well cared for.

He is fed, fluids given, turned regularly etc etc he is very comfortable and secure there and treated very well."

The management and staff have been impressive in responding to my sisters' very different needs. The home provides comfort and a lovely environment with kind and attentive care.

"I can highly recommend this care home, such an enjoyable place for relatives to live and the care they receive is excellent. The dedication of the staff on all levels is so good and you can see they actually enjoy working there. Nothing is too much trouble and the attention to detail of care is wonderful. My relative is at the end of life and the love and support they give to families is beyond the call of duty. The home is lovingly warm and homely, with activities daily and even a hairdresser for those pampering times. Visits from school children and the odd dog or two make everyone smile. The surroundings and gardens too are pleasing and relaxing even though it's in the centre of town, you wouldn't think it. I cannot endorse this home enough and give thanks to everyone who works there for the care they give when needed."

"The level of care, empathy and compassion given to the residents in their care are second to none. Care over the last few years at The Cedars has always been of a high standard but of late, the standard has increased to an even higher level. I can only contribute this to the promotion of a certain staff member from Deputy Matron to the position of Matron (Home Manager) to The Cedars.

From the first phone call, the staff were so helpful, kind and couldn’t do enough to help me and my Nan. We had recently had a bereavement so it was a difficult time for us all, but despite this, the compassion shown by all of the staff there was amazing. The nurses at The Cedars made a very harrowing time for me and my family so much easier, explaining every step and ensuring my Nan had everything she needed. The food is delicious and the carers give the kindest care. All the staff there are wonderful, from housekeepers to the maintenance man. What a wonderful safe, homely, special place.

When she was first admitted last year with 'end of life care' and no one was expecting her to survive until now.

"I can not thank The Cedars staff enough for how they helped not only my father but also my mother and myself in the two months my Dad was in Bourne with them. Dad initially moved into The Cedars for a week respite care as it was becoming increasingly hard to meet his needs at home. Dad found everyone at The Cedars kind and caring and they looked after him very well. As Dad's needs increased he stayed at The Cedars and those last two months of his life were made so much easier by the care of all who work there. My mother is elderly and as I live three hours drive away it was also a huge help for me knowing she was being with Dad in a supportive environment in the week when I was not able to be there with them. As Dad's condition progressed the staff were responsive and kept me informed. I would highly recommend The Cedars - all of the staff made a very difficult and stressful time so much easier by being there for us. Thank you so much."

Mum was very poorly, but has made a good recovery and enjoys making the most of the activities they run - art, quizzes, keep fit! Which was also an important factor, as well as the obvious caring staff, homely atmosphere etc. And with an added bonus that our dog is very welcome!

The cake and scone I had were defiantly home made and very tasty. A lovely happy caring home."
