I'm pleased with how it's run. I know my son is happy living there. I can visit when I like and I can have my views heard. I'm kept up to date on things relating to him. My son is hard to manage and I know staff do the best they can to look after him and support him with his day-to-day living.

My son is supported by Linfield home. The manager is wonderful and contacts me and keeps me updated when necessary. My son's care is great and the home has been constantly trying to get my son's equipment and room servicing with outside services.

These last 18 months have not been easy for anybody. I'm sure the residents must have wondered what was going on. I have to say that all staff have done a fantastic job in keeping everyone safe and happy. I have nothing but praise and thanks for them.

A lovely homely place where residents are treated with the utmost respect. Décor is bright and airy and maintained regularly. Food is plentiful and varied and all staff undergo regular training.


Beautiful indoor pool/sauna and large garden which is well kept - ideal for their BBQ's.


All staff

carry a type of 'walkie-talkie' where they can document everything, so no need to write in books. One of the best homes my son has been in. Very caring management and staff. Would thoroughly recommend if any vacancies arose.

Current Review Score: 8.4 (8.374)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.4 (8.374) out of 10 for Lynfield 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 1 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 4.818 for Lynfield is calculated as follows: ( (9 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 11 Ratings = 4.818

  • 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 3.556 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Lynfield is based on 1 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 = 3

    • 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 9 registered maximum number of service users is 1.8. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 1.8 = 0.556

  • 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.
