I cannot speak too highly of Oaktree Court, from the manager, to the caring staff and the people in the kitchen who produced such lovely food. We found all the staff to be extremely dedicated, caring, respectful and helpful, in fact everything you could wish for.


My husband was where he wanted to

be for the last few days of his life, and the caring staff made provision for my family and me to spend the last night with him., his passing was very peaceful.

I can't speak highly enough of Oaktree Court, Andy (the manager) and all the staff have a genuine really caring nature where nothing is too much trouble. Combine this with a strong "can do" attitude and you can see what sets them apart from other care homes.
My father only spent a short time at Oaktree
before he unfortunately passed away, but in that time we, and most importantly he was treated like royalty.
The room was excellent and spotless - and frequently rearranged to suit changing needs, the food was delicious, we were constantly checked on and made to feel as comfortable as possible.
If only all care homes were like Oaktree court!!

From the moment we walked through the door of Oaktree Court we knew it was the right place for mum, no way has it disappointed. Not only is she in her hometown, which she has never left, but the whole ethos of Oaktree has been absolutely what she needed. The caring, respect and kindness afforded to
all of us has been incredible. All the staff, without exception, has always been there for mum and for the family, we cannot praise or thank them enough.

Our father was at this home for around 9 months and experienced kind and caring staff throughout his stay. He had only good words to say about all members of staff. My observations were that staff were always cheerful and helpful, that the home is well situated in lovely grounds with a rural aspect
and rooms were bright/clean and of a reasonable size and that all in all this felt a very professionally managed home. I think that improvements could be made to the standard of food, however, I note there was a regular supply of biscuits and home made cakes. There are very regular activities including a minibus for day trips and meals out in the evenings. Thank you to all the staff at Oaktree Court.

Reply from Andy Kirby, General manager at Oaktree Court Care Home

Thank you, Steve for your review, we were all very fond of your father, who made some very good friendships with both the staff and family. I will never forget the day he told me he wanted to go to Thailand, which with all our support he was able to do, and which I am sure he'd be eternally grateful. We have in response to concerns raised, employed a new head chef who has changed the menu to reflect the wishes of the residents more closely. The results have been extremely good.

Oaktree Court provided care for a dear friend in her final months of life. Whilst very weak, she remained very lucid, and consistently commented on the high standard of care that she received. Over frequent visits, I was also impressed by the standard of care, and the cheerful and obliging demeanour
of all the staff I met. The informal, open visiting arrangements were much appreciated.

Oaktree Court is a friendly, welcoming home set in beautiful surroundings. The Somerset Suite provides its residents with a home from home feel in bright, clean airy surroundings. Care is very much person-centred and staff appear to have a very good insight into residents needs. The food is freshly
prepared and the chef makes glorious birthday cakes!! There is always something going on the activities team are fantastic too.

Oaktree Court cared for my twin uncles at end of life. They did so with kindness, warmth, compassion and humour. My uncles were consistently afforded dignity, respect and autonomy and made to feel very much part of the Oaktree Court family, as did I. Every single member of staff that I encountered was
courteous and professional, always proving to be responsive at times of need. I am a senior nurse working in older people's care. Oaktree Court was everything I could have hoped for.

Finding a suitable place for a loved one to move into was never going to be easy, but finding Oaktree alleviated any stresses and concerns that go alongside what is a challenging time.


The surrounding area is beautiful and the interior is decorated to a very high standard. The rooms include en-suites

and we were encouraged to put up pictures on the walls to personalise Grandad's room. The communal lounge is bright and airy with an abundance of great tasting food being served up which my Grandad (and myself) thoroughly enjoyed!


Above all, I feel it is worth highlighting the staff. From the offset, everyone made such effort to learn about my Grandad; his past, his interests, and above all, his family. This meant he was extremely well-cared for with dignity, kindness and empathy meaning he thrived during his stay. During his final days, the staff also provided outstanding care to our family which they should be very proud of and something that we will always be grateful for.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.297)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.297) out of 10 for Oaktree Court Care Home 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 8 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 4.783 for Oaktree Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (72 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 92 Ratings = 4.783

  • 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 4.514 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Oaktree Court Care Home is based on 8 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 = 3.8

    • 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 56 registered maximum number of service users is 11.2. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 11.2 = 0.714

  • 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.

Hi, I'm Marie, Home Manager at Oaktree Court!


I am absolutely delighted to be back at Oaktree Court as Home Manager! Having previously held this role from January 2019 to October 2021, it feels wonderful to return to such a warm and welcoming community. After moving to Shropshire for a time, I’m now back in Somerset and couldn’t be happier to have rejoined the team.


As a Registered Nurse, my background spans a variety of areas, including Paediatrics, Accident & Emergency, Police Forensic Nursing, Substance Misuse, Rapid Response, Acute Medical Wards, and Out-of-Hours GP Specialist Nursing. I’ve also managed nursing agencies and care homes, as well as held regional and compliance roles.


Providing exceptional care, upholding high standards, and advocating for residents has always been at the heart of my work. I love getting to know our residents and their families, and I’m always happy to have an informal chat about life at Oaktree Court. If you’d like to know more, please do get in touch!
