My friend moved into Barchester Arbour Court Care Home just over two years ago and I have visited her most weeks since then. On every occasion, my friend has been very well cared for, well-presented, comfortable and as I would here for her.
Staff on every occasion have been friendly, helpful and supportive,
that includes all staff, those on reception, cleaners, nursing staff.

I just want to thank all the staff at Barchester Arbour Court Care Home. My husband has been there a long time now. When I go to visit him, the staff are all lovely, pleasant and I really feel they care for me as much as my husband. The home is beautiful and my husband is spotlessly clean even though
he's bedridden. Very high regards to this place.

I would like to thank all the management and staff for looking after my best friend, they are all caring and will do anything they can to make the residents feel at home and at ease. It is a lovely care home, very clean and the lounges are very pleasant to sit in, the residents' rooms are lovely, meals
are very nicely cooked and served with staff on hand to help others who need it.
Plenty of entertainment and gardens for them to sit out in the nice weather.
Would definitely recommend Barchester Arbour Court Care Home, one of the nicest homes I have visited.

My mum is a resident at Arbour Court and after a very daunting experience looking for a nursing home for Mum, I felt a huge relief from the moment I walked into Arbour Court.
My only worry was Mum wouldn’t get a place. Thank God she did.
The whole atmosphere is caring, the staff are exceptional and
treat residents like their family. In fact, it is one big family. Compassion, care, and interest in each resident is carried out in a professional calm and friendly manner by all staff.
Management is outstanding and a credit to Barchester.
Thank you Arbour Court for helping our family to feel more at ease with Mum in a home, knowing she is receiving outstanding care.

My father has been a resident since 2018. As someone who had no faith and trust in care homes, I can honestly say Barchester Arbour Court Care Home is amazing.
The staff are beyond wonderful, caring and will do anything for you.
Residents are treated with respect and as one of the family.
In the
last few weeks, upon my father's deterioration, it has been care on another level, they have made Dad and my family so comfortable, always providing refreshments, updates and friendly support and the ultimate care package to ensure Dad's last few days are as pleasant and comfortable as possible.
I can’t thank the team enough and wouldn’t have a qualm recommending them as ‘simply the best’, you’re all amazing!

My wife is being cared for by all the staff as if she were a family member of them all. The quality of the care is exceptional, as is the accommodating, and the food is well prepared/cooked and served.
Most importantly, she is treated with dignity and respect.

We would wish to thank the manager and all the staff who worked tirelessly to make Armed Forces Day a huge success.
Our special thanks goes to the activities coordinator who facilitated this special event on behalf of the residents and their families.
The singer was in fine voice, with the residents,
as they remembered special moments with their loved ones and friends with the song, "We'll Meet Again". And meet again they certainly did; he met his old school chum from Tintwistle. Who has made his home at Arbour Court Care Home, Buxton Lane, Marple.
People danced, waltzes, marched and waved flags. The whole event was followed by a delicious high tea, sandwiches, cream cakes and glasses of Prosecco (non-alcoholic) toasted the special day. We then all retired to the garden. To witness a beautiful rose tree being planted by a veteran of the Royal Signals Regiment and another veteran of the Royal Navy. What a terrific day! Hip, hip, hurray. Thank you.

Mum has only been in the care of Arbour Court for a short time. The staff are helpful, caring and can't do enough to help. Mum and the rest of the family have been made very welcome and feel very happy with the care and understanding received. The compassion shown by staff members is excellent. We know
it must be very difficult at times, but nothing seems too much trouble. Thank you to all staff members for your support.

My husband was a resident at Arbour Court for 16-months. He sadly passed away on April 27th 2022. I would like to thank all the staff for the utmost care and attention they gave to him during that time, which must have been difficult at times. They were always pleasant, and nothing was too much trouble.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Arbour Court.

Mum arrived at Arbour Court at the end of March to a lovely welcome by all staff, she was introduced to all the residents in the lounge. She appears to have settled in nicely and the staff are very caring towards mum and go out of their way to support her. Her room is very comfortable and she likes
the view of the little pond.
The staff are always friendly when you visit and keep you informed of any issues and let you know how things are going. I've been very impressed so far.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.783)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.783) out of 10 for Barchester Arbour 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 14 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 4.783 for Barchester Arbour Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (129 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 161 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barchester Arbour Court Care Home 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, 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.
