My beautiful sister became a resident at Cedar Mews about 7 months ago now. She hated the thought of care and so did the family, however, frailty sadly took hold and all other options just didn't feel safe and enabling. The loving care, attention and friendships she has made are beyond our wildest expectations.
My sister is living well again after slowly but surely fading in her own home. We, as a formidable family cannot praise the whole staff team enough for all the selfless care they give, not only to my sister but to all our extended family and friends. We are truly blessed to have found this home. Bless you all.

Mum moved to Cedar Mews in September last year. Within a couple of weeks, she looked her usual self - hair and nails done, wearing clothes which were beautifully laundered and was having fun joining in the activities. Just after Christmas Mum had a few, unexplained, falls resulting in a 2 week stay
in hospital with a fractured pelvis. Mum was discharged in a weak and confused state. Again the wonderful care given has meant that Mum is able to join her friends in the lounge. The care, support and kindness provided by all the staff is truly excellent and I cannot thank each member of Cedar Mews team enough.

My Aunty stayed in Cedar Mews for a year. In that time she had fantastic care and was well looked after. All the staff are caring and promote dignity and are empathetic.


When you walk into the home you are greeted with a warm welcome. The home delivers a high standard of care to all their residents.


When my Aunty passed away, even the undertaker could not get over how the staff stood in respect when she left. Well done.

After looking around several homes for my father, this was by far the nicest place we had seen. It has the look of a hotel than a care home.
My father had a physical disability and needed a high level of support to meet his everyday care needs. The care team are excellent and always mindful of dignity.
My dad could feel frustrated at times due to his disability but the staff did their best to accommodate his needs. The entertainment team are great, my dad was not the most social of people but the activities coordinator always tried to coax him to the different activities going on and even brought in films he thought he’d enjoy so he could watch them in his room. We also attended a few of the bar nights with dad which were always fun. In all my dealings with management, administration, care, entertainment, catering and housekeeping staff, I can honestly say everyone just seems like they want to help and do their best for both residents and their families.

I have just arranged for my father to have his third stay at Cedar Mews for respite care. We are very pleased with the care dad has received. The staff are very friendly and professional and dad is very settled when he stays at Cedar Mews. When he comes home he is more engaged and he benefits from the
company of the other residents.


The home itself is fitted out to a very high standard and it is always a pleasure to spend time there when I visit.
It’s a real home from home and my mum really benefits from the break in caring for my dad knowing that he is settled, happy and very well cared for.

Words cannot say how please I am that my friend has chosen Cedar Mews.
Always a warm welcome and lots of activities going on throughout the day and the food WOW, it's more like eating in a fine dining restaurant.
The care is excellent always someone to hand to help if needed and only a buzzer away
and my friend still has her independence without the home chores we all have to endure.

This was my first time as a respite resident for 10 days in Cedar Mews.
My first experience was very good. The members of the management were extremely helpful in every way and always on hand to help you. The care workers were excellent, very experienced and understanding of my needs. The food was
very good. I would recommend this place to anyone.

My wife entered Cedar Mews for 1 week to give me some respite. This is a 5 star facility with staff to match. In fact, it is probably the best care home in the country (in my opinion).
It is a brand new facility. The care and compassion shown to my wife was second to none, in fact, she has been back
on a day basis which gives me a rest and the peace of mind to know she is being properly cared for.
The quality and choice of food is exceptional. I would urge anyone looking for a top class care home to go and visit, you will be amazed.

From day one and the initial meeting with staff members, I had an extremely good feeling about the whole being of the place.
The welcome was warm and genuine not only to my sister but myself too.
Nothing is too much effort for any staff member.
They show a keen interest in all things connected to
the folk for whom they care.
I can only envisage it going from strength to strength and wish them well.

My friend has been in Cedar Mews for the last month or so and wow what a difference I can see in him. That atmosphere and care delivered are so good that he has gained weight and confidence and is enjoying being social again. I cannot thank the staff at Cedar Mews enough or praise the care levels enough

While my dad was at Cedar Mews, he was treated like a king. He had previous trust issues with carers but at Cedar Mews they took this on board worked with him and he overcame this. The care he got at Cedar Mews was outstanding. Nothing was ever too much trouble for any staff member. I am so thankful
to everyone there for looking after dad so well.

My Partner looks forward to his day at Cedar Mews each week, and he returns full of praise for the welcoming friendly care received in most comfortable surroundings, the company of friends, and the excellent food served.
This is so reassuring to know for me as his carer, and enables me to enjoy my
day off, knowing how very well he is cared for.

Mum said she would never go into a care home. We searched for a long time and then brought mum to see Cedar Mews. Mum's whole attitude changed from the first visit, they asked about mums requirements and they also asked questions about how mum felt about going into the home and put her at ease. The
way she has been treated is marvellous, no one could ask for more, everyone there genuinely cares for the residents. It is more like a big happy family. The warm friendly atmosphere captures you when you arrive. Mum is extremely well looked after and is doing more now than she was when she lived in her own home. They fully understand mums needs and medications, and always help with any queries or concerns I may have. I have told so many people about that outstanding care and facilities. I know my mum is proud to call Cedar Mews her home

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.840)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.840) out of 10 for Cedar Mews 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.840 for Cedar Mews Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (180 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 213 Ratings = 4.84

  • 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 Cedar Mews Care Home is based on 18 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 73 registered maximum number of service users is 14.6, which has been reached with 18 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.
