Mum entered Barchester Collingtree Park in April 2020, very much in need of care and support as she had rapidly become less capable in the early part of 2020. Clearly a difficult time under "normal" circumstances, but with the additional uncertainties and demands from the Covid pandemic, it was very
tricky. However, Mum was given extremely good care from day one, and within several weeks began to settle, and some weeks further on began to improve. By July a remarkable turnaround had been achieved, and I have no doubt that this was down to the excellent care she is being given by the whole team at Collingtree Park.
She is now settled, feels "at home", and is now enjoying face to face visits in her room from the family.
Thanks to all staff at Collingtree Park.

My mother went downhill as soon as she entered this home and I don't believe this should happen if the home is the right one.
My mother improved dramatically once I moved her to a nursing home. The experience has left me understanding the importance of making sure the home is right for the individual.
It's
important to look at the difference between care homes and nursing homes. They can be so different as they have different staffing levels so the higher the needs are, the greater staffing levels are necessary.
I phoned daily to get updates from the staff about my mother as she was deteriorating but often found the person who knew the answer was doing rounds so could not talk at the time. There are a few staff who answer the phone that is not carers so waiting for the right staff member was often irritating at a time when my anxieties were high. I felt sometimes I was being a nuisance to the staff not by what they said but by the tone of voice they used toward me.

Mum has been a resident at Barchester Collingtree Park Care for 4 years now and feels that the staff are part of her family. In fact, during this Covid pandemic, they are the ones who have held her hand and given her the hugs I haven't been able to. They've arranged weekly Skype calls and joined in
with the general chat so that it feels like we have a gossip rather than a stilted conversation with an elderly person who can't always understand what is going on, and it enables Mum to interact with a person rather than just a screen.
Mum caught coronavirus last year and the care and devotion the staff showed was second to none. We were fortunate that mum recovered and her Collingtree family were as overjoyed as me.
The home itself is nicely decorated and spotlessly clean. The gardens are colourful and easily accessed. Mum enjoys the food and the varied activities which keep the residents entertained. In fact, she is now a dab hand at carpet bowls!
Collingtree for Mum is home in the true sense of the word.

My third stay at Collingtree is like coming home, staff are excellent and welcoming. Everywhere is immaculate on the cleaning side. Catering choice of menu is very good, meals in my room on this visit and the same welcoming staff. Nothing anyone could find fault with. Despite the Covid virus, the staff
kept up their standards. Well done.

A brief note to say thank you. Thank you to all the girls that looked after my uncle, thank you to the maintenance manager for fixing up whatever was needed. We felt so confident with him in your very capable hands. Last week it was time to go, it was his time. Now the pain has gone, no need for endless

My grannie received outstanding care all throughout her battle with Alzheimer's and COVID, from which she sadly died. We were incredibly lucky to be able to celebrate my 30th birthday with her just before lockdown and then a final visit to say goodbye and thank you to her the day before she died in
July. We shall always be forever grateful for the care my grannie and us all received. I personally work in a hospice and I could easily spot that Grannie received excellent end of life care at Collingtree. The staff are so helpful and friendly, nothing was too much trouble. The staff so kindly organised numerous Zoom calls with Grannie when the home was in lockdown. It was a massive comfort to be able to see her face and speak to her as well. We can't recommend this care home highly enough! Thank you so much to all the staff involved in caring for Grannie!

Mum had made her own decision that it was time for a care home, being a very organised and strong-willed lady we thought it would be a challenge. My husband and I said we would look into care near us at Northampton. We looked on the internet and contacted 2 homes. One didn't bother to reply, the second
we had an appointment 3 hrs later. We knew as soon as we entered the home, it was perfect. After 3 weeks, a few teething probs, she is happily settled.

Visited mum under COVID restrictions meaning my wife and I had to plan in advance, follow instructions and meet mum in the garden. Due to the weather, we warned the visit could be cancelled at any time. The process to book a visit was very easy, everything explained clearly. On arrival we were met by
staff outside, the procedure for the visit was explained and we were made to feel at ease. The carer brought mum down to us and then left us alone to sit, at social distancing, and chat to mum for the allowed time period. The carer informed us she would be just indoors if she was needed. It did start to rain as we arrived but they have erected a gazebo and thankfully it wasn't windy or too cold. It was lovely to see mum and see she was being given the best possible care by the home.

Let's face it, no family is happy when one of their senior members needs to have full-time care only a care home can provide. You then discover there are care homes and CARE HOMES. We have experienced both ends of this spectrum. Phone calls full of her desperation to "go home", "I'm waiting for a taxi
to take me home", "Can't talk - must pack my bag", One-time staff finally located her waiting at the lift in an attempt to make a run for it... Very evidently we had not found her a happy place.
Everything changed when she moved into Collingtree Park. Since then my every phone call is upbeat, every Skype conversation reassuring, each garden visit a pleasure - this week we shared a happy half hour in the sunshine, got an enthusiastic welcome, saw her big smile, and met several members of staff. I noticed her face lit up whenever one of them bent close enough for her to see who it was. She really believes she is home. She is happy. She is properly cared for. So her family is happy too.

My mother had been very unhappy in her previous care home in another town where my sister lived. Therefore we were very grateful that my mother soon settled in at Collingtree Park and seemed much happier. She never wanted to be in any care home but at 92 and with dementia she needed 24/7 care and therefore
a care home was the only viable option.
Throughout the year and a half that my mother was resident, the senior staff always showed a welcome and a willingness to engage with us and to build a relationship so that we could discuss my mother's needs and any issues that arose.
Towards the final weeks of her life, the care and compassion shown by the staff to my mother was exceptional. My sister's husband who is a doctor and who is very familiar with hospice work declared to me that he thought the level of care was better than the level of care shown in a hospice! Praise indeed. This was during a period when the Covid virus was around and many restrictions were in place.

I want to say a big thank you to all the staff at Collingtree Park Care home. My Parents moved to the care home last November, they have always been very independent people, but they needed more help, both having dementia. It was important to me to find a care home where they could still be together
living in the same room, they were married for 65 years.
My mother died in May of this year, not from Coronavirus, just from old age. The situation was made worse with Coronavirus lockdown, not being able to see him and comfort him during this sad time. The Carers and all the staff at Collingtree Park Care Home have been absolutely fabulous. We have had phone calls and Skype video calls every week. Although it was confusing for Dad why I couldn’t be there, but to see his face light up when we Skype called was priceless. We have started garden visits and to see Dad happy and chatty has been so uplifting.
So again thank you to the Collingtree Park team for all your hard work.

My uncle lived at the Collingtree care home in Northampton for over five years until his death in May 2020. Before he went there myself and other members of the family went to see several homes in the area and felt none compared more favourably than Collingtree. The whole team of carers, admin and managers
were excellent in all respects. Nothing was too much trouble and the staff very approachable. Any concerns or worries were dealt with in a speedy and professional manner. I would highly recommend this exceptional care home.

Dad went into Collingtree in the early stages of his dementia and the location was great for quiet walks and trips to the bar at the local golf club. As his dementia worsened he was not able to enjoy the surroundings but the staff were brilliant throughout. Always felt that Dad was being cared for and
room and facilities were good.

I would not recommend any particular provider or care home as I feel the responsibility to be too great. I would of course tell of my experiences at Collingtree truthfully. The Resident's meetings can be helpful. Decisions on matters raised should and must be referred back to the resident concerned.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.279)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.279) out of 10 for Barchester Collingtree Park Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.279 for Barchester Collingtree Park Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (108 Excellents x 5) + (86 Goods x 4) + (35 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 233 Ratings = 4.279

  • 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 Barchester Collingtree Park Care Home is based on 17 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 79 registered maximum number of service users is 15.8, which has been reached with 17 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.

I'm extremely proud of the personalised care our staff deliver, seeing the happiness it brings to residents is priceless.

Job Title: Head Chef

Joined: 2023

Hello, I’m Jennifer the Head Chef at Collingtree Park care home. I have been in the Care Home sector for the past 3 years and working in hospitality for 27 years. I enjoy cooking, entertaining and hospitality and have had the opportunity to travel the world with my job. Cooking is a real passion of mine and being able to make and refine dishes to suit different tastes and needs.


My day involves speaking to the residents and finding out their favourite foods and recreating all their happiest memories. Food nutrition is a very important part of the day in a care home and it’s essential to get it right. It gives me great pleasure to see the joy on our resident's faces as they enjoy our cuisine. The kitchen team love to share ideas to constantly keep up with the latest trends to produce some appetising dishes. Getting the right balance is a must! One of my specialities is homemade sweets and treats and I like to express this every day on our morning and afternoon tea trolley.

Hello, my name is Martin, welcome to our ‘Life’ at Collingtree Park Care Home page where you'll find regular updates on all we've been doing, including the events we have planned.


My role is to ensure that our activities, outings and the entertainment we provide is stimulating and inclusive of all our residents no matter their challenges. It is important to me that our weekly calendar offers enriching experiences with music from live entertainers, visits to various locations outside the home, as well as arts and crafts tailored to individual abilities.


Getting to know our residents better is so important, and through regular family and friends’ meetings we can gain a greater understanding of their loved ones' interests and life prior to joining Collingtree Park that will make for a richer activities program to be developed.


I look forward to getting to know you, and your loved ones.


We are always open to new ideas. If you would like to get involved in any of our Life Enrichment activities or have a skill, or project you'd like to share with our residents, please click here to contact the activities team direct. New entertainers and community links are always welcome.

Job Title: Second Chef

Joined: 2018

Hello. I am Tamara, Second Chef at Collingtree Park. I have always loved cooking for myself and have developed my career in food since coming from Greece to the UK.


Collingtree Park feels like a big family - I cook with love, as I would for my own family. I research recipes online and try them at home to get them just right for our residents. I like cooking main courses, making them attractive, hearty and full of flavour. I am already working on menus for next season.


I can adapt any of my recipes for people with allergies or swallowing difficulties, so they can enjoy the same flavours as everyone else.


I also make cakes and other treats for birthdays and events.
