My mum had several illnesses including dementia, so she needed physical and mental health nursing. I asked for a room overlooking fields to remind her of home and she got just that-it was lovely. The home is very welcoming, clean, well decorated, really good food. The staff were happy and plentiful,
nothing to much trouble. My mum was cared for with the best patience and dignity by people who truly cared and are a credit to the home manager who has a very dedicated team which she is obviously very proud of. All of you are very special people.

My Grandmother received outstanding care. All staff were friendly, polite and professional. We as a family will never be able to thank the staff enough for all of their fantastic care in looking and caring for our Granmother.
During her stay at Bod Hyfryd we were always made to feel very welcome and
if we had a query ( which was a rare occasion) staff were approachable and it was dealt with promptly.

Reply from Kerry Rowlands, General Manager at Bod Hyfryd Care Home

Thank you very much for your kind words. We're so pleased to hear your feedback and I look forward to sharing your comments with the team regarding your Grandmothers time with us here at Bod Hyfryd. Thanks again and take care.

My father had 2 weeks respite care before Christmas. The staff at Bod Hyfryd were fantastic, from the management down. Dad was very well cared for and staff aimed to keep Dad's routine from home to the best of their abilities. The staff are so approachable and helpful, there is a real family feel at
Bod Hyfryd, whilst maintaining professionalism at all times. We would definitely consider respite here again for Dad with the reassurance that he is well cared for. This was Dad's first time having respite, so it was a big adjustment for him and us. The staff supported us all as a family and we are very grateful to them.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review of the care your Father received while staying with us at Bod Hyfryd. It's fantastic to hear your comments and it was a pleasure seeing him interact with our team and residents. Thank you again, and should you look at further respite care in the future, we'd love to help. Take care.

Amazing care for my grandma. The best staff and the best place she could have been. She was very well looked after and the staff were all brilliant with her and us. They made her last couple of months calm and cared for.

My mum was discharged from hospital to Bod Hyfryd and the care that she received from the second she entered the building until she passed away was phenomenal. I work in health care and in my role I visit as part of my job many care and nursing homes across the north west and some leave a lot to be
desired.
Bod Hyfryd is different, with caring, actually loving staff towards both residents and their families. I felt that my mum had truly extended her family by being at Bod. Many of the lovely staff attended Mum's funeral recently.
The staff are kind, compassionate and caring. Mum's room was beautiful and homely and she was so well cared for.
As a family, we are indebted to the team at Bod Hyfryd for their wonderful care and I cannot praise them or rate them highly enough.
I feel it would be unfair to single people out because all of you are fabulous. I just wish Mum had been well enough to enjoy your love and care for longer.
Thank you everyone.

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. We are over the moon with your comments and feel very lucky to have had the pleasure of knowing your lovely mum. I am looking forward to sharing your kind words with my team. Thank you again and take care.

The people are what makes a place special. Always a friendly, happy face greeting me at the door. Nothing was too much trouble for them, always willing to help with anything we needed for Mam. The caretaker, cleaners, laundry people, catering team, carers, nurses and management were all fantastic. Couldn't
fault them. Whatever Mam needed or wanted, she got it. The staff were amazing when Mam got poorly, not just look after Mam but helping us, as a family, through it all, very supportive and compassionate. Big thanks to you all.

My dad went into Bod Hyfryd Care Home for end-of-life care and was there for about twelve weeks then, sadly, passed away, 98 years. The staff and management treated my dad with 100% care and compassion, went above and beyond to make his life as comfortable as they could. He was treated with respect
and he touched many hearts. As a family, we were also listened to if we asked for anything to make Dad happy. I got to know a lot of staff and I can honestly say, they should be very proud of themselves for the job they do. I would 100% recommend this care home.

Amazing care home. My grandad had been there a few months before passing away and the staff looked after him and cared for him professionally and on a personal level. I cannot thank them enough. Everyone was so kind and polite. My grandad had been in a care home previously but Bod Hyfryd Care Home was,
by far, the better of the two. His room was nice and warm and he was lucky enough to have a view over the green fields and trees. The food looked amazing too and my grandad loved his desserts. I will miss my grandad dearly but I will also miss seeing the staff too. Thank you.

Reply from Kerry Rowlands, General Manager at Bod Hyfryd Care Home

Thank you so much for your kind words. I am delighted that you are happy with the care your grandad received with us; he was a wonderful man who we thoroughly enjoyed getting to know during his time with us. I will pass your feedback on to the rest of the team. Thank you again, take care.

My husband was a resident at Bod Hyfryd Care Home at the end of July 2024. I had cared for him at home for as long as I could but as a family, we knew the time had come for him to receive 24-hour nursing care. He was immediately warmly welcomed by the entire caring staff at Bod Hyfryd. His transition
from home into care was handled with empathy and tenderness. I cannot find the words to really reflect the deep gratitude I and our children feel, for taking such loving care of him during his short time with them. We will always remember their warmth, professionalism and genuine kindness. Eternal thanks.

What a wonderful experience and privilege it was for all our family to go to such nice, friendly people. We knew my husband would be well looked after and he certainly was. I can't tell you how nice it was to visit, staff are so friendly and helpful, God bless them all, they are a fantastic group. Thanks
to all of them.

Bod Hyfryd Care Home was the fifth care home Mum was a resident in due to her dementia and us moving to North Wales. We always promised her she would go with us when we moved. Mum was in Bod Hyfryd six and a half years and it was, by far, the best home she had been in. I can’t thank the staff enough
for the care shown to her and especially during Covid, which was a tough time for all. For some years, Mum didn’t know me and the last few months she wasn’t awake but the staff always supported me throughout. Just a little sad that there was no one from the care home at her funeral but understand the pressures and staffing problems. Thank you all for your kindness and care.

A huge 'thank you' to each and every one of the staff at Bod Hyfryd Care Home for the high level of care and attention that my wife received during her stay. I witnessed on a daily basis the professional and cheerful way that care was administered, along with the high level of cleanliness, food, activities,
etc. Thank you all once again.

My dad has been in Bod Hyfryd Care Home since January. From the moment we walked in, everyone there was so friendly, so welcoming and nothing is ever too much trouble. My dad has settled in really well and is well looked after. After seeing many homes I would highly recommend this to anyone looking
for a care home for their loved one.

I can’t think of anything negative. Mum was always clean, comfortable and cared for. The food was always fresh, and Mum would often be out of bed and in the day room even when she was very poorly. The week she passed away, the management went above and beyond to look after Mum and also her family. Thank
you all so much - couldn’t recommend enough.

Lovely little home, my great great aunt has been a resident for a few months now. The home is clean and welcoming, staff are just lovely and are really friendly and welcoming and nothing is too much trouble from the housekeepers to management. Would recommend Bod Hyfryd Care Home to anyone who is looking
for nursing care for their family as everyone is treated as part of the family!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.956)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.956) out of 10 for Bod Hyfryd Care Home 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.956 for Bod Hyfryd Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (174 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 182 Ratings = 4.956

  • 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 Bod Hyfryd Care Home is based on 16 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 16 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.
