Nursing Care

Lydfords really take part in our community and involve their residents in our activities. They have allowed our Community Benefit Society to hold regular meetings at the Care Home as we have pursued our aim of purchasing village pub (The King’s Head). The coffee and cake they provide is a delicious and generous bonus. Great staff, warm and clean - like the home.

A BIG thank you to Parley Place for welcoming us for the Ferndown Business Network Meeting this morning. You provided a wonderful breakfast in a beautiful setting, and it was a real pleasure to experience your home. It has a lovely, warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Been very good staff and offering hot drinks and snacks. It was a great feeling hours visiting.

My first visit to Parley Place, this morning, and I have to say that I was completely impressed by the entire experience. Michelle demonstrated the facility to me, and it was nothing short of a four-star hotel. In my twilight years, I should be looking shortly, for something like this, and if I end up here, I will very happy.

I frequently visit Trinity Manor. This is a beautiful home, the atmosphere when you enter is warm and inviting. Elizabeth, Kat and Paul in particular are very helpful and knowledgeable.

When you walk into Hethersett hall care home you are always greeted with a genuine smile and greeting.The atmosphere is warm and very relaxing. I attend their special craft events as a vendor, and always come away feeling happy, as the staff and the residents are lovely happy people and a joy to talk to. You can see by observing that the staff really care about those in their care. Always happy to visit.

I visited this care home as a guest and came away genuinely impressed by the whole experience. The building itself was beautifully clean, tidy, and filled with natural light, creating a bright and uplifting environment. From the moment I arrived, I felt very welcome. Every member of staff I encountered was super friendly, kind, and helpful, and it was clear they truly care about both residents and visitors alike.

One thing that really stood out was the range of activities they put on for residents. During my visit, children came in to spend time with the residents, interacting with them and bringing so much joy and happiness to everyone involved. It created such a lovely sense of connection and gave the home a real community feel, which was genuinely heart-warming to see.

The atmosphere throughout the home was absolutely lovely — calm, warm, and positive. It didn’t feel dark or depressing in any way, which can sometimes be the case in similar settings. Instead, it felt cheerful, well cared for, and full of life. You could really sense a happy and respectful environment where people are treated with dignity and compassion.

Overall, it was a truly pleasant place to visit and left a very positive impression on me. I wouldn’t hesitate to give this care home a very strong recommendation — it is clearly run with care, pride, and heart

Overslade house is a really really nice house with lovely staff, very welcoming and kind, making sure all of our needs were taken care of ( paramedics).

Sophie and her brilliant team looked after mum so well these past 4 weeks. Thank you so much, she will miss you very much x

Manager and staff are amazing, Friendly positive and always willing to help. Absolutely great people. Wish we had more clients like yourselves.

My father Peter has only recently arrived at Alice Grange Care Home and although we have yet to visit, the reviews for us to choose a suitable home have helped a lot.
From the initial enquiry to his admission we felt care, empathy and good understanding from all those involved.
The administrator Christine gave prompt and full explanation to our enquiries.
Our expectations have been fully met - infact exceeded!
This we have compared to other Care Home that have yet to respond to our requests.
Thank you to all the staff involved in Peters admission !

My ukulele group Dee Ukes have provided entertainment to South Grange Care Home on several occasions. We always have a great time there and are made to feel very welcome. The residents are encouraged to join in with the singing and the staff are very attentive and encourage participation. We have always experienced a happy atmosphere in the home. We appreciate the positive feedback we get from residents and staff.
The main lounge is beautiful with tasteful, attractive decor. The furniture looks clean and comfortable. The other room we have access to is a well stocked café/sitting room where residents and visitors can help themselves to tea/coffee and biscuits. This lovely room looks out onto a beautiful well-maintained garden area.

Very clean and tidy, friendly staff and happy residents

Nothing is too much trouble for the staff at Westergate House. From a friendly greeting on the phone, or on arrival, the reception staff are always willing to help. The excellent care team, who are all kind, caring and nothing is too much trouble in ensuring our parents care is of the highest standard. The catering side is excellent and yesterday, the chef kindly prepared a 3-course meal for our family, which was served up for the celebration of my parents 70th wedding anniversary. The standard of food was excellent, as was the service, with a bouquet of flowers and chocolates presented to my parents at the end of the meal by the Senior Manager Paul, who heads up this excellent team, and who is friendly, approachable and always makes himself available. The differing health needs of both my parents are met under one umbrella at Westergate House. We looked at 9 other care homes before choosing Westergate House, and we have not been disappointed. Us 3 daughters regularly comment on how lucky we all are to have found such a wonderful place to care so well for both of our parents.

My mum experienced seven different care home settings throughout her dementia journey, and Arbour Court was a cut above the rest. The care and support she received were excellent, and nothing was ever too much trouble. I was always greeted with a friendly smile, and I felt complete peace of mind knowing that when I left after visiting, Mum was in very safe hands.
Arbour Court is a warm and welcoming place. Mum has sadly passed away now, but I can’t thank Lisa and the rest of the team enough for the outstanding work they do.

I have visited the care home a couple of times. The staff are so friendly and eager to show off this beautiful home. If ever I needed a care home I would choose this one .

I recently visited Hollyfields Care Home for a show round and was extremely impressed. The home itself is beautiful, clean, and welcoming, with a lovely atmosphere throughout. The staff were friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable, taking the time to answer all of our questions and making us feel completely at ease. It’s clear that residents are well cared for and treated with genuine kindness and respect. We left feeling very confident in the care provided and would highly recommend Hollyfields Care Home to anyone looking for a supportive and high-quality care environment.
