If your loved one needs 24 hr care, look no further than Fairways Residential Home. I can't speak highly enough of the care and dedication of Fairways staff. All adhere to professional policies regarding the daily running of the home. My mother stayed there 6yrs 3 months. End of life care was provided.
Fairways have a cheerful and homely atmosphere for all the residents. All this gives peace of mind to the relatives. Excellent. The staff really are "My Angels on Earth".

My mother passed away in August after living there for 3 years. The care she needed in the last year as she couldn't walk anymore was brilliant. The last month of her life was spent in bed and the care and attention she got was very good. The day Mum died, what the staff did for our support and care
for her was far and above our expectations.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

Cleanliness is satisfactory - bathroom etc good but cleaning of room could be more thorough.
Food - more variety, homemade soups, more fish meals.
More frequent outings would be nice.
I am generally happy here and am grateful for the care and help I receive, sometimes I get frustrated because I would
like more variety with the food as I love fish and seafood.

Fairways is a true 'home from home' with its competent staff happily doing the complete variety of tasks as their duty rota allows. The home provides all the basic care needed for its residents who can choose the amount of time they wish to spend in three differing seating areas. There is a pleasing
garden surrounding the house and the views, either of the sea, or over not one, but two, golf courses with the RHD Railway, a field and a distant road dominating the view to the rear. As a resident said she could not believe that the view came 'free'!


Some residents may display a little awkwardness allied to their condition and such a thing is kindly, pleasantly and patiently resolved.


A variety of activities and outings for those wishing to take part is arranged with the highlight being the annual Garden Party where one drummer resident accompanies the Morris Dancing musicians.
The staff greet visitors-often with a cup of tea or coffee-and their cheeriness is a good all-round tonic.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.795)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.795) out of 10 for Fairways Residential Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.795 for Fairways Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (122 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 151 Ratings = 4.795

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Fairways Residential Home is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 28 registered maximum number of service users is 5.6, which has been reached with 13 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
