Mum has been lucky enough to be allowed to live at Limecroft since the early Summer of this year - following years of home care from her family. From the beginning she has been very happy, settled and incredibly well looked after. If you are searching for a residential home for a family member or perhaps
for yourself - I would highly recommend Limecroft - for pleasant surroundings, meticulous care (emotionally and physically) for the residents and lastly - for the extra support given by the emotional support animals within the home.

My husband has been in Limecroft Residential Home since 31//10/23 and he is very well settled and the care he receives is brilliant. The facilities are wonderful, the bedrooms comfortable and the care of his clothes in the laundry better than I could do myself. The staff are all very cheerful and caring
they really keep the residents' spirits up and there seems to be plenty of activities to keep them from being bored. Also, the food is very good and one of the chefs is a great baker as I have been given coffee and cake on many of my visits. Also on my husband's birthday, she baked him a lovely cake to rival some of the best bakeries and he was given a lovely gift from Limecroft and the staff made a big fuss of him. I would recommend this home to anyone who is looking for this type of facility for any of their loved ones.

My mother required emergency accommodation when her home was flooded. We were lucky to have two weeks' accommodation for her in Limecroft. I was so impressed by the welcome I received at such short notice. The lady in charge on the day my mother arrived, was delightful, explaining the facilities clearly
whilst also dealing with another resident who wandered into the office. The staff were exemplary in their care of my mother; they were so kind! The facility itself is open and airy. Whilst my mum would never have participated in flower arranging, it was clear there were activities which one could enjoy. My mum's room was small but perfectly adequate. The plus was a great en suite wet room. Overall, I have no hesitation recommending this Council facility and I congratulate all of the staff for creating a home from home. Well done.

Current Review Score: 8.4 (8.381)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.4 (8.381) out of 10 for Limecroft is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.4 out of 5 from 2 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 5.000 for Limecroft is calculated as follows: ( (24 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 5

  • 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 3.381 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Limecroft is based on 2 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 = 3.125

    • 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 39 registered maximum number of service users is 7.8. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 7.8 = 0.256

  • 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.
