Overall Experience

I highly recommend Linford Grange. It's a wonderful care home with a very homely feel. All of the staff are absolutely brilliant at what they do. They make time to get to know the residents and provide a person-centred approach to the individual needs of their residents. My mother's room is so cosy,

full of her personal touches, has a lovely view of a field out the back and is kept extremely clean every day. The personal care, food and laundry service is exceptional. There are lots of activities for the residents to enjoy including weekly exercise, visits from animals, singers and arts and crafts for entertainment as well as BBQ's which include the family and friends of the home. Me and my mother feel very at home at Linford Grange. I am completely reassured having met most, if not all of the staff (including the new ones), that my mother is safe and well cared for. The new mural on the wall makes it very magical to have found such a wonderful home with such a lovely team.

Overall Experience

As a wife it is always difficult to find the right home from home, but I think with Linford Grange it is as near as I can get! It has a lovely, homely feel and even has a beautiful peaceful garden for relaxing in! It is in a super location being close to a busy High Street with a variety of shops, and

public transport. The rooms are spacious, the laundry excellent and the food is of restaurant quality. The care is provided by a dedicated team of staff who look after my husband very well. There are activities and social opportunities. Fully recommended.

Thanks, Lynn, for your very kind review, your brother is a big part of the service and lots of fun to support, most of the time.
Family support makes supporting individuals a lot easier and I know the team really appreciate your support and involvement.

Friendly, caring and amazing staff. Assisted in getting my aunt from London, enabling better access and more time to visit. Rooms are lovely, always updating or redecorating as required. Easy access to the local shops and lovely location.
Fully recommend Linford Grange.

Overall Experience

The bedroom that I am in is excellent as well as the ensuite toilet and shower. I have a room with a view. I enjoy the activities; keep fit and the musician. Meals are most enjoyable and very nutritious, and I love the garden, which is amazing, peaceful, and pretty (my secret garden). Wheelchair access

is excellent. The laundry service is 5-star luxury. The environment is extremely relaxing and sociable, as well as safe. A thoroughly enjoyable stay, thank you.

The staff are very helpful and understanding. I would like to see my brother being paid a bit more attention, there should be an empty glass next to the water jug. If I have any questions, the managers/team leaders are very helpful.

Overall Experience

The Stratford's care team have been so friendly and supportive of both my father and me. The decision to move my father into a care home was so difficult, as it is for anyone who has had to deal with this huge step. The care team were so welcoming and attentive when my father moved in May. He has a

very comfortable bedroom and is able to sit with the other residents in the pleasant lounge. Although he is generally a private and quiet man, he has enjoyed the activities and outings. He has access to the small garden area as he loves to sit in the sun. I am able to easily visit and take him out for a walk along the High Street and along the river. He recently had a birthday and the team made the day so special for him and the vittles' and cake were splendid. All in all, a lovely home with truly such a caring team. It is now September and from time to time my father has been a challenge for them and they have shown such professionalism and understanding. Thank you.

Overall Experience

I live in Edinburgh and have come down to see my 86-year-old sister in the care home several times over the last year and have phoned her most nights too over the last year. She is happy to live in the Stratfords. The carers treat her with humanity and cheerfully, as an individual. The home is clean

and serves a choice of diverse, good-quality meals. She appreciates very much living in her care home environment. I too appreciate all the good factors from the home environment that make her life happy.

Reply from Victoria James-Priday, Registered Manager at The Stratfords Residential Home

Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review for our home. We strive as a team to ensure that each and every resident in our care is treated as an individual at all times and we very much enjoy supporting them to develop and grow whilst maintaining as much of their independence as possible. We value family input and suggestions at all times and much appreciate your compliment!

Overall Experience

We had to find a home for Mum pretty quickly. Phoned The Stratfords, made an appointment and as soon as we walked through the door we knew it was the right place for Mum. The staff all came and introduced themselves and were so welcoming to us. The manager showed us round and we didn't hesitate in taking

the room. Brought Mum over 2 days later and straightaway she loved it - all the girls on duty came and said Hello and were so kind to us all. But they don't just look after Mum - they are there for me any time I need them. Always happy to chat and talk me through what's happening - apologies to them if I'm a nuisance but all this is new to me! I honestly cannot believe how lucky we were to find The Stratfords - somebody up there was obviously looking down on me the day I made the call. So to everyone at the home - I say a huge thank you from the bottom of my heart - you are simply the best.

Overall Experience

I can only praise all the staff at The Stratfords. My mum went to hospital today and I was informed and was waiting to hear from the hospital but I had a call at 9pm from the staff to say she was safely back at home. As I can’t talk to her because she is deaf, time was taken to make sure she understood

I was on the phone and wishing her goodnight and sending love. She blew kisses on the phone. This is a wonderful small home for anyone who needs to be taken care of. Thank you to all the staff for taking care of my Mum.

Overall Experience

I have already submitted a review of Linford Grange but I really feel that another one is deserved. Linford Grange has established a very happy life for our son. As his illness slowly is nudging forward, they constantly try their very utmost and succeed to grow and change with him. He is so very happy

there. A few days ago we all came back from a great holiday which he really enjoyed but the sense of relaxation, familiarity and comfort were obvious when he arrived back at Linford Grange. This is a testament to the very committed and hard work that the staff put into making this happen. My husband and I now feel a very sincere connection to Linford Grange and the staff, who are an extended and trusted family. We really do genuinely recommend considering this care home for your loved one. We are very picky and would not have our son anywhere that was not right for him. Honestly, thank you all at Linford Grange for your genuine, conscientious and caring hard work.

Reply from Victoria James-Priday, Registered Manager at Linford Grange

Thank you, it is a pleasure to work with you all as a family! We very much appreciate how you have all joined us here at the Linford Grange family and support our team, and work so enthusiastically and positively!

My uncle moved to his new home at The Stratfords at the end of 2021. We have been delighted with the level of care he has received so far, made all the better by the great team who work there. The level of communication between the 'home' and me has been excellent so I feel included in the support that

he is receiving.

I am writing this review as a recipient of care in my own home. The care staff who looked after me have been hard-working, very caring and very friendly. On the negative side, some staff could improve time-keeping.

Mum is relaxed and happy in Stratfords. Staff are attentive, skilled and caring. Mum particularly likes the food, and the home is small enough not to feel - or smell - like an institution.
