Astley House

I cannot recommend Astley Care Home highly enough. From the moment you walk through the doors, you are met with warmth, professionalism, and a genuine sense of care. The level of care provided is truly outstanding. The team is not only highly skilled but also incredibly compassionate, treating residents
with the dignity and kindness they deserve. Whether it's assistance with daily activities, medical care, or simply offering companionship, they excel in every aspect.
What truly sets Astley apart is the personal touch-staff take the time to get to know each resident, ensuring their individual preferences and needs are met. Families are kept well-informed, and there is always an open line of communication, which provides great peace of mind.
If you are looking for a care home that prioritises both excellence and compassion, Astley is an exceptional choice. It is clear that residents here are not just looked after-they are genuinely cared for .

Astley House

from M S (Wife of Resident) published on 8 April 2025

I am extremely happy with the care my husband is receiving in Astley House. The staff are all very friendly and cheerful despite having a very demanding job caring for residents, many with dementia like my husband. They always treat him with respect and speak directly to him in a calm and supportive
manner, helping when require but also encouraging him to be as independent as possible. They are always well informed about how he has slept, eaten or his level of activity (walking). Both staff and management have been very supportive to me and family members when visiting. The home is always very clean, no unpleasant smells, residents are encouraged to be as active as suitable, going out into the garden in good weather. A variety of good food is provided with choices. I have complete confidence that my husband is receiving the best care in Astley House.

Amazingly managed. The managers & staff have my parents-in-law's best interests as their focus at all times. Home baking, snacks, coffee, tea and juice on the go all the time. Friendly, chatty staff. Great activities, also constantly on the go. The wider family all enjoy the social media posts and being
able to keep up to date.

My father has been a resident at Astley House since October 2023. He is well looked after by warm and caring staff. It may not be the fanciest building, but the atmosphere is friendly and staff get to know residents and their relatives. Communication is very good, with frequent calls to keep us informed
of any concerns. My father's room is bright and spacious and there are a number of public rooms, which gives us the option to share time with him on our own while having a coffee. We are very happy with our choice of Astley House.

Staff at Astley House are the most caring people, always ready to help if asked a question. The bedroom room was always clean and tidy. Relative was always clean and tidy. Food was good. The staff were always cheery.
They could not have done any more to make my relative comfortable, he was so well
looked after. Thank you.

from S T (Niece of Resident) published on 3 May 2023

Beware this company includes interest monthly after your loved one passes away. If you have a solicitor it can take up to 6-9 months or longer to complete their estate. My experience was terrible from the start, bullying from day one and the level of care was not satisfactory.

Reply from Jai Chohan, Director at Astley House

It is always sad when a resident passes away, and is upsetting for anyone who has a connection with them (including the staff at the home). Unfortunately, when a loved one passes, there is nothing that we can do about the length of time it takes to settle an estate, and that is why we have a contract with the resident and/or their relative or guardian, to ensure that everything is carried out in accordance with the National Care Contract.
With regards to the Care in the home, our grades with the Care Inspectorate are at Very Good, and are a reflection of the care delivered in the home
