Overall Experience

I have visited many care homes over the years, and Tanglewood Care Home in Horncastle is (in my view) a cut above the rest. Great staff, great layout, great care, great food, great atmosphere...a first-class home. My partner stayed there two years ago, my brother stayed there last year, and (if I ever

need to go into a care home) I would hope to stay there too. I can't recommend it highly enough. A big thank you to all the staff.

Overall Experience

I have been visiting Tanglewood for over 9 years, it is one of the older homes without all the glitz, cinemas, etc - which I can honestly say from experience it is not always necessary, it's the care and commitment of the staff that appealed to me. I would recommend on care, sensitivity and support

and friendliness shown to residents and family. All staff across the board from maintenance to housekeeping to canteen and staff not mentioned. The social connection that residents have with each other shines through at activities and meal times. The food is very good - sponge amazing. Keep up the good work. A little update on the home - carpets etc is required.

Overall Experience

My parents have now lived at the Horncastle Tanglewood for two years. On the 12th and 13th July 2024 the entire team helped my family and I organise and facilitate my father's 100th birthday celebrations with around 55 guests over the two days.
Nothing was too much trouble, including the erection of

an outdoor gazebo with seating and tables, the provision of bottled fresh water, tea and coffee facilities, and helping with the clear-up afterwards each day. All of the staff provide great care, support, and are polite and friendly. We have nothing but praise for the teams involved.

We were visiting and from the moment we stepped inside, we were greeted with smiles and helpful suggestions. We had to wait a few moments for our friend to be ready but were well looked after by staff. Our friend, although now in need of nursing care, was very complimentary about his whole experience.

Tanglewood is an impressive establishment.

My father spent twelve days at Tanglewood Nursing Home, Horncastle after discharge from hospital. We were so pleased he spent his last few days here. He was treated so gently and caringly, nothing was too much trouble, the staff were fantastic. His last few days were made so special as we, as a family,

could stay with him all the time and the staff looked after us so well too. So thank you, forever grateful.
Can't recommend Tanglewood highly enough.

My father was only a resident for a short period of time before he sadly passed. However, the standard of was very high, from the cleanliness to the compassion given by their staff members and all staff members. I was so relieved we managed to move my father to Tanglewood for his last few weeks of life.

They went above and beyond, the care home has a lovely atmosphere as soon as you walk in, home from home.

Myself and my dog are regular volunteers through a therapy dog charity. We are always greeted with friendly staff, the home is always clean and smells fresh. Many of the residents love to see the dog and eagerly wait for his visits he brings them lots of comfort.
There is a plan of the week's activities

in all the resident's rooms so they know what is happening each day.
The residents are always clean and well cared for.

He is well-fed and always has plenty of food. The activities keep him well entertained and his brain active. It is great to see

Overall Experience

My father spent his last few months at Tanglewood Care Home Horncastle, where he received the nursing care he required. Having had some negative experiences in previous care homes, we had our reservations about placing him in another home. However, I cannot praise or thank the whole team enough. I could

not have asked for a better home for my father. The team that looked after my father was exceptional. I honestly cannot thank them enough for their hard work and all that they did for him. They helped make him comfortable and treated him with the utmost care and compassion. As a family we were made to feel welcome and any questions/queries we had were answered. We always felt we were informed and a part of his care. All staff we met were approachable, friendly and smiley. The home itself is clean and tidy, and the gardens/grounds are beautiful. I would recommend this care home to anyone and speak very highly of all the staff that work here.

I cannot rate this home highly enough. The staff are amazing, friendly, helpful and they all do an excellent job of caring for everyone. My husband was very ill when he arrived here and was bed-bound, non-verbal and could do nothing for himself. The staff at Tanglewood Nursing Home treated him with

dignity, respect and compassion. They were kind and considerate to all the family and made us feel welcome at all times. Nothing was too much trouble. The manager is kind and approachable, leading a great team. Tanglewood felt like a 'home' in the true sense of the word. Even the gardens are kept to a beautiful standard. It's a difficult decision to make when one's loved one needs care, but I'm so pleased my husband was able to spend his last few months in Tanglewood.
