Very accomodating through difficult circumstances. My brother needed to go into a home from hospital during last years Covid lockdown. Everyone always there for my brother and me.

All seems well behind the scenes as, since 2020 March, I've not entered the building. Visually Mum looks happy and well cared for. The new team seem to have been busy re-organising and decorating the home, which is good. The activities coordinator is very friendly and has introduced lots of wonderful
new activities along with the manager. It's hard to judge, but I feel comfortable and reassured that my mum is in a caring environment and is content.

Reply from Surbhi Singh, Director at Bearwood House

Thank you for your feedback. We have now resumed visiting following government guidelines. We continue to update the décor as we want to create a nice homely feel for our residents at Bearwood House. We are pleased to hear that you feel comfortable and reassured that your mum is being cared for. We welcome any feedback.

My father was previously living alone in sheltered accommodation. Despite myself and other family members supporting him, his health deteriorated over the years and coupled with dementia, we took the decision to move him into a care home. We were recommended Bearwood House by a friend who's mother had
moved there. Since moving in, my father's health improved significantly and I can't thank them enough. My father has been at Bearwood for a couple years now and due to old age related health issues, has started to deteriorate once again, however the staff and management have been very supportive and I can't fault them as they have kept me informed all the way, but will perhaps need to think about moving my father into a nursing home. This is a shame, as moving into Bearwood House was the best thing for my father at the time and I am glad we managed to get him in when we did. It will be a shame for him to leave.

The management and staff at Bearwood House are brilliant. My father-in-law has only been there a few weeks but really settled into life there from day one. The very friendly atmosphere and dedicated staff make it a lovely place for family members to visit. What with the home-cooked meals that he raves
about, and plenty of activities to keep him occupied, what more could anyone wish for. After struggling at home alone, he now feels very safe and secure under the caring approach of the staff who constantly go above and beyond what you would expect. Thank you.

My mum-in-law loved ins sheltered accommodation until she moved into Bearwood House practically a recluse. At first she wouldn't come out of her room but after a time of being encouraged to join in she now takes part in singing, exercise and many more things, thanks to the dedicated staff and the entertainment
lady and she has made many friends.

We had to put Mum into respite care a year ago and were very impressed. When my Dad died a few months later we realised she was so much better at Bearwood than she would have been at home. The staff are wonderful.

My mother in law told me how happy she is in the home and how well taken care of she is.
The meals are 'just like my mother used to make' and I don't think she could give higher praise.
The staff are kind and patient and I think they do a marvellous job.

The care my mother has received at Bearwood House has appeared, to my Father and myself, to be faultless and the staff have individually and collectively been excellent in their dealing with her. My father, who is 92 himself is always welcomed by the staff members on duty and made to feel part of the
Bearwood House “family”


The only minor issue I would have is to do with the lack of feedback on the various hospital visits our mother makes, if we enquire with a member of staff usually nobody has the information due to shift changes.

When we visited, the care home was clean and tidy.
There are many activities organised for the residents, including crafts, cooking, music and people visiting to entertain the residents.
The residents all appear happy and well cared for.

Mum is very comfortable in the above care home, her room is very light and airy and the decor very nice. The staff are very caring, friendly and patient and most of the other residents are friendly too.
There is an activity going most weekdays for anyone who wishes to take part and the atmosphere
is comfortable and friendly.
I would definitely recommend this care home.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.598)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.598) out of 10 for Bearwood House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 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 4.698 for Bearwood House is calculated as follows: ( (79 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 106 Ratings = 4.698

  • 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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bearwood House is based on 9 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 = 3.9

    • 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 27 registered maximum number of service users is 5.4, which has been reached with 9 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.
