I wrote a review in August 2016 and gave 5 out of 5. Now that my wife has been a resident in Beechville for a further 12 months the home is even better than before.


Since last year a new young and vibrant activities organiser has been appointed and she organises an extremely varied and busy schedule

of events. These include outings, musical events, exercises and one to one chats with the residents.


The quality of staff remains excellent and they are very caring to the residents.


Well done Beechville.

My dad moved into Beechville two years ago, when vascular dementia meant he was no longer able to cope independently, and he has settled in extremely well. The staff are consistently caring and considerate, they treat my dad affectionately and respond well to him with humour, patience and understanding.
I live 250 miles away, and I feel confident that he is in safe hands. The staff call me only when they have concerns about health issues. I can visit any time without needing to inform them. There is a wide range of activities and the atmosphere is always upbeat and positive, providing a good balance of lively enjoyment as well as periods of quiet and calm. Relatives and friends are always welcomed and are given a lot of support. We are also encouraged to participate but there is never any pressure to do more.


I would definitely recommend Beechville and am grateful to everyone there. My dad is very happy and enjoys a good quality of life with no worries or stress.

The staff are caring and treat the residents with respect. There is a training matrix for the staff in situ, covering aspects of Lifting and Handling, Health and Safety, Infection Control and Fire Evacuation, with some participation in NVQ training.
I view the staff as my husband's 'extended family'
as he responds to them more than to me, which is good.
Beechville has an excellent Music Programme with group and one to one involvement. There is also a very active events programme to suit all levels of participation.

Beechville is a modern well designed home. All rooms are ensuite and a good size. There is a range of lounges - both small and large throughout the building.


The home also benefits from a dedicated chaplain and group of volunteers; I think this adds an extra dimension to the home, as they provide

an independent and caring oversight, leading many activities. The home has a focus on both physical and mental well being. The Chaplin also provides support to relatives.
There is an excellent programme of activities, in fact, the best that I have seen at any home. The activities co-ordinator works hard at including all residents.


Above all the most impressive part of this home is the attitude and dedication to staff. As we walk down the corridor every member of staff greets my mother by name, and by staff, I mean 'all staff' including the kitchen staff, cleaners and admin staff. The staff are a very dedicated and impressive team it is clear that they care about the residents.

Mum moved into Beechville in July 2016. At first, she found it difficult to settle, but with the help of the wonderful staff is now happy and contented in her new home. She has begun to enjoy some of the wide range of organised activities and particularly looks forward to the weekly religious services
and discussion groups run by the Methodist Chaplain. My wife and I are able to visit very regularly and always find Mum well dressed and groomed. Knowing how well she is being cared for and how much healthier she seems enables us to feel more relaxed and look forward to visiting. All her other visitors tell us how much better she seems and are equally impressed with the high standard of care they have witnessed.

Mum has been living at Beechville for three years. Over that time her dementia has progressed significantly. She is very happy at Beechville and always happy to return after a day out, which is very important to me. She is always greeted by staff who know her by her name and enjoys lots of kisses and
cuddles from everyone. The food always looks really good and there is a very good choice. There is a very enthusiastic activities coordinator who tries to include everyone, whether it is by way of one to ones or group activities.
I can't ask for anything more than that mum is happy, has plenty of company and understanding care when needed.
Excellent, keep up the good work.

Mum has only been at Beechville for four weeks. The staff have been wonderful with her, they make her feel special as they do with all the residents. She has settled in really well and joins in the activities, which she loves.
I find the staff extremely friendly and nothing is too much trouble. If
you have any questions they are answered immediately. Everyone works very hard and there is a lovely atmosphere really enjoy my visits.
Thank you to all.

Mum has been in Beechville for two and a half years during which time her dementia has progressed significantly. The care received has also changed over that time with more support being given to Mum. The staff are fantastic! They always have time for an update on Mum whenever I visit. I also know
that they will be in touch should anything happen in between visits. All family and friends are made very welcome and encouraged to visit.
The home is split into four different suites with each suite having its own lounge and dining room. This makes it more personal and friendly. One lovely part of Beechville is the Coffee Shop which takes place several times a week and is run by volunteers. They make everyone welcome and have time for a chat and a cuppa.
I cannot speak highly enough of Beechville and would have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone.

My mum has been in the home over 4 years and as she has deteriorated her health and personal needs have been brilliantly adapted, increased, but enabling her to do as much as possible. The staff are incredibly, friendly, and professional as well as capable. Mum still recognises a lot of her carers as
there is good continuity and that's important.

I moved my Mother into Beechville three years ago and from the moment she arrived there she seemed happy and settled. The most amazing thing about the care home is the staff, my mum's eyes light up when she see's them and their interactions with her a genuine and caring, her response to them shows that
this continues when I am not there. She always has a big smile. The activities on offer are wonderful, staff encourage residents to join in and feel this stimulates residents and keeps them active both physically and mentally (my mum is downstairs in the dementia unit). Some activities involve both residential and dementia suites and this works very well. there is a wonderful coffee shop a few times a week. This enables you to meet with other residents family members and a sense of community can be formed.
The manager is very approachable and very understanding and supportive. The ladies in the front office are also very kind and welcoming.
Thank you to everyone, for giving me peace of mind

Having been at Beechville for over a year now and with deteriorating health my Mum said her 94th birthday was the best one she had ever had. Thanks go to all the staff for making it a special day for her and in particular for the beautiful and delicious birthday cake made by the catering team.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.688)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.688) out of 10 for Beechville 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.688 for Beechville is calculated as follows: ( (128 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 170 Ratings = 4.688

  • 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 Beechville is based on 14 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 63 registered maximum number of service users is 12.6, which has been reached with 14 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.
