  • The standard of care my mum receives has been great for the 19 months that she has been there, and she has always been treated as a human rather than just a number. The home puts on entertainment for residents, and the food is home-cooked to a great standard. All in all, I would say it is more like a home away from home than a residential home.

  • It was an extremely difficult decision to place my dear aunt in a residential home. I am overwhelmed by how so very happy she is (a first in many years). I cannot compliment Eleighwater House enough. The staff and management are exemplary - they are kind, respectful and professional. I cannot thank them enough for all they are doing for my aunt.

  • A special friend is being looked after by Eleighwater. She suffers from Parkinson's Disease and needs assistance every time she moves. The staff cope with this so cheerfully and patiently. When I visit, my friend will be in her comfortable armchair by the window, looking out on a flower bed, bird feeders, and woodland for a backdrop. She loves life there. Each time I visit she will say "I can't believe how lucky I am".
