The standard of care, facilities and activities is extremely high. The staff responsible for dementia residents, get to know the residents and create a positive, caring environment. We are very happy that Mum has been kept safe during the COVID pandemic.

Mum has been in Ty Enfys since 2016 and is extremely happy and well looked after. She is included in all activities and the staff know her favorite thing is singing. The staff all know not only Mum but the relatives visiting her, when able to. During the pandemic, when visiting wasn't possible, we have
been kept up to date with regular emails and phone calls if needed. Mum's twin sister has now joined her in Ty Enfys (on a different floor) and they see each other frequently. We would heartily recommend the home to anyone who asked.

My mother has been a resident at Ty Enfys for 18 months. The pandemic hit soon after her arrival. Although I have not been able to see my mother as yet face to face, (I do have a visit booked next week) I have had almost daily contact with her via Facetime. This has enabled our relationship to maintain.
The staff are ready to accept my call and aid my mother in conversation. I am often sent photos of her enjoying activities, such as painting in the garden (wearing a large sunhat). She often sings and she always has painted nails and sometimes a make-over. My mother's dementia is now quite advanced but she seems settled and content and for this, I thank Ty Enfys.

Mum has been at Ty Enfys since September and has really settled in. We are pleased that she has a lot of social interaction now which she didn't have at home. She takes full advantage of all the activities on offer and always seems very happy when we visit. The staff make sure my Mum is always clean
and well presented and they always keep us informed if there are any medical updates. During the times when it wasn't possible to visit in person, the staff were always around to help with Facetime. They even had a pantomime at Christmas which was put on by the staff and this was live-streamed so all our family could enjoy it!

My father has been a resident at Ty Enfys for a couple of years now and I cannot fault the service he has received, or the welcome both my brother and I have had as visitors. Even in recent times, when visiting has been a bit of a rarity and with all the extra burden of Covid restrictions and associated
working practices, someone has always had time for a chat or an update, and we are confident Dad has been kept comfortable, entertained and as well as possible.

On the whole, we have been very satisfied with the care Mum has received at Ty Enfys. We have been enabled to see her face to face when the government has allowed it and also via FaceTime. Some careers are better when helping Mum with FaceTime as they will interact with us (Mum finds communication difficult,
so it really helps to have the carer participating). Others do not seem to be aware of her problems in the way.


I have been kept informed when there have been any problems. There have been some little concerns, but when they have been expressed, there has generally been helpful responses.


Reply from Sujjata Singh, General Manager at Hallmark Ty Enfys

Thank you for the review, your comments are greatly valued. I will follow up on the issues related to some of the care team members understanding of your mum's needs, this should resolve any issues moving forward. Thank you again for your review.

My partner has been in Ty Enfys for 8-months. From day one, all of the staff have displayed care, compassion and kindness towards both my partner and me under the very difficult circumstances caused by COVID. The staff have worked extremely hard to get to know my partner, who has extremely complex needs,
in order to be able to provide the best care and support for her, and they are extremely professional in everything they do. I know every day that she is safe and well-cared for. Recently, limited indoor visiting has recommenced, and this has been organised really well and safely. I’m even allowed to bring our dog, which gives my partner’s well-being a much-needed boost. Although I wish my partner was home, I know that she needs specialist care 24/7, and I take comfort that she is in the best place for this. I would highly recommend Ty Enfys to any family contemplating moving a relative into a care home.

My mother has been a resident at Ty Enfys since December 2020. A fiercely independent woman, she managed at home with minimal carer support until a fall resulted in a lengthy hospital admission during which she contracted Covid 19. It was inevitable that she needed ongoing nursing care, and Ty Enfys
was recommended to me by friends. I found the staff at the home to be approachable, helpful and caring, even before my mother transferred there from hospital, and they have remained so ever since. My mother seems settled and comfortable, and all her needs are appropriately and lovingly addressed. Her needs are challenging as she is profoundly deaf and virtually blind, so meaningful communication is difficult, nevertheless, I am confident in the care she receives. Staff are always willing to talk, ring me about any changes in her condition, and it is good to be greeted by name when I visit. It will never be "her own home", but it is probably the best alternative.

Mum had to be moved from another care home to Ty Enfys in November/December and seemed to fit in right away and has told me how nice everyone is, and that she is very happy. With Mum only going into Ty Enfys in the latter part of last year and with Covid restrictions, I have, as yet, been unable to
see Mum's room or any facilities in person. However, I found the staff more than helpful to give us a 'virtual tour via Facetime. After Mum had been there about a month, we were contacted by a member of staff to find out if Mum had any interests or hobbies and for a brief history of her life. It felt so nice that they had taken the time to research her life...That she was considered a 'person' and not just a number. Since Covid restrictions have been lessened, I have visited Mum on many occasions (2/3 times a week). On every visit, I have found their hygiene regime to be up to the most recent government standards. In my experience, visitors are treated in a courteous and very friendly manner.

I had my reservations about Mum going into a nursing home as heard bad things in the past about these types of nursing homes.
The best place I could imagine my mum could have got. Great staff, very polite. Always great with Mum, helping her eat, drink etc. I can see in Mum that she is happy where
she is.
5 stars for me!

We had prior experience of Ty Enfys with my father-in-law requiring nursing care, so when my mum felt that she wanted to relinquish responsibility for her own house and garden, and needed ‘looking after’, the moment came to have a trial period. This happened in the middle of the COVID-19 lockdown. Not
an easy period, but the patience and humanity of the staff, their willingness to work with us to ensure that the transition for someone going into residential care with particular and individual needs, was a smooth as possible, is much appreciated. I have never felt that I can’t pick up the phone to discuss anything with the staff.

Reply from Sujjata Singh, General Manager at Hallmark Ty Enfys

Thank you for your review; we are happy that you found the situation as smooth as possible. We will continue to provide quality care for your mum and will pass on your kind words to the team.

My dad has been a resident in Ty Enfys for over three years, and it was the best decision we made as a family, he has been well looked after. In the past 12-months during the pandemic, the home has kept us well informed, and we are able to keep in contact with him when visits have been banned. Staff
are always friendly and helpful.

Ty Enfys is the best care home you could choose. Mum has been well looked after by the wonderful staff. Before COVID I noticed how tactile and reassuring the staff were to Mum who has advanced Alzheimer's so she cannot communicate much verbally. The rooms and corridors are spacious, comfortable and
full of cheerful decoration, some made by staff and residents. The food is excellent. The large garden is well-tended, colourful and used for activities. You cannot help but be impressed by all the inventive things the staff think up to keep residents entertained. Ty Enfys has more activity and engagement with individuals than any other care home I have seen. Also the staff and management are totally on the ball and have handled the pandemic as well as humanly possible, with best hygiene practices strictly observed and good communication to keep families up to date throughout. The Customer Relations Manager was immensely helpful at the time Mum was taken in. All the staff deserves commendations.

My daughter is currently in Ty Enfys and has been for some time. After she went there, I was able to visit her daily, and knew that she was in a very good place!
Difficult to express my gratitude for the kindness and caring that has been given to her. My daughter has been encouraged to engage wherever
possible, particularly walking in the attractive garden and listening to music and singing. Even in the current, difficult times, the sure knowledge that I am informed of any difficulties which may arise with my daughter gives me every confidence. Incidentally, as I am quite old, I do appreciate the kindness shown to me when visits have been possible.

I have been very pleased with the care and attention my Stepmother has received during her time in the Care home. She has been happy and although she likes to stay in her room for much of the time, she has been persuaded to have some meals in the dining room. This contact with others has been invaluable.
This year has been difficult with many restrictions but we have still managed to see her whenever possible.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.870)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.870) out of 10 for Hallmark Ty Enfys is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 54 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 54 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 4.870 for Hallmark Ty Enfys is calculated as follows: ( (559 Excellents x 5) + (73 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 637 Ratings = 4.87

  • 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 Hallmark Ty Enfys is based on 54 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 101 registered maximum number of service users is 20.2, which has been reached with 54 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.
