My mum thought all the staff were wonderful, very helpful and friendly.
Our only criticism would be that the bed linen could be ironed, and the pillows needed replacing. All our family would like to thank all the staff at Hepworth House for looking after Mum so well.

My mother-in-law absolutely loves residing here at Hepworth House. No matter what time of day we come to see her, both she and other residents are well cared for. The activities are great. Staff are always happy which shows how much they enjoy working here. The care given is outstanding. My mother-in-law
expresses how much she loves living here. She has dementia / Alzheimers, so we needed to ensure that where she was going to have to move to, had to be outstanding. We found that at Hepworth House.

My mum came to live here in May 2024, she absolutely loves being here. The care is excellent, staff are wonderful, caring, always smiling, and always welcoming. When we came to view the home we were in awe of what we awe, the residents were all singing and dancing. It was very obvious that Hepworth
house was a wonderful place for my mum. She comments all the time about how wonderful it is to be here. As a family, we know she is always safe and well looked after. My mum has dementia / Alzheimers so this is a great relief for us knowing this.

Mum has been a resident at Hepworth House for 2 years. Hepworth House and staff are very warm, welcoming and always have time to help and support residents and their families on issues that occur. Staff have met mum's needs in a professional, patient and caring manner. When sick, they support her through
it. When requiring transport or escorts for hospital, staff have been there to make the experience less challenging. Management have advised, supported and prepared me for issues presented by social services re mum's next steps. They have encouraged me to step back and keep my mental health strong, allowing carers to take control. I can move forward, meeting mum's needs in the future. Thank you Hepworth!

One of my close friends stayed for respite in November 2024 for a two week stay. She very much enjoyed her stay and has discussed staying again in the future. Myself and my partner visited regularly and found the home very welcoming, warm and a friendly atmosphere. The staff are lovely and nothing is
too much trouble. The home is clean and well looked after. I would certainly consider this home for my elder relatives if the time came.

Mum was very reluctant to move to a care home. She has lived here now at Hepworth House for a year and a half. Mum has blossomed since living here. She has the company of other residents and the care given by all staff has made Mum's new home happy and content. My sister and I are so happy that Mum
lives here and we feel assured that she is well cared for and respected.

Well, all I can say is it's amazing! From the lovely friendly management to the great chef, great carers, lovely cleaning, laundry staff and activity girls. I was only in for respite but if I ever needed more care, this is the place to be! I never expected the experience I've had, I've grown so fond
of the residents and staff and as I only live down the road I'll be popping in to see them if they'll have me.

I spent three comfortable weeks of respite care at Hepworth House. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. There was plenty of choice of activities and I felt my independence was still intact.

My sister is currently staying at Hepworth House for short-term respite. On entering the home it was spacious and clean. There was a lovely friendly welcome on entry. First impressions were positive. We were advised where to go after signing in. The premises were beautifully presented and clean and
the room easy to find. We didn't have chance to look round but did see the library and dining room which both looked beautiful. The room my sister was staying was lovely and had everything needed however it was slightly on the small side and as it was a warm day was a little on the warm side. The windows only opened a small way, obviously for security purposes. Overall the experience was a positive one.

Well maintained, clean, attractive outside entrance with useful informative information. Always welcomed warmly by whoever opens the door. Calm but friendly welcoming environment. Good safety protocols are apparent. All staff have been approachable, responsive and helpful with any query. Staff often
recall my name, making things lovely and personal. A clear person-centred approach to care with my mum and the other residents was observed. Organisation and food/meal times are well structured but flexible for choices of what and where - encouragement for individuals' autonomy is very clear with a good balance of safety and inclusion without any pressure. I cannot tell you how important all these things are to me at this time. The team of staff should be very proud, well done. Thank you.
Keep up the fabulous work!

Reply from Terri Kidd, PR Executive at Hepworth House

Mum has only been here two weeks but is settling in really well. She is being looked after extremely well by all the staff who are very caring, helpful and friendly. She is enjoying all the meals and was pleased to have her hair cut and set in the hair salon which made her feel good.

The staff have been extremely welcoming to my mum despite her initial anxiety of moving into a care home. After two weeks of respite, mum asked to stay. Now Mum is settled, loving the entertainment, joining in with activities and has made friends. Staff have also supported me through the emotional rollercoaster
I have experienced when considering care for mum, they provided assurances and demonstrated their ability to provide safe care while ensuring mum maintained her dignity.


I would recommend Hepworth House to anyone who wishes the best for their parent.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.768)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.768) out of 10 for Hepworth House 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.768 for Hepworth House is calculated as follows: ( (140 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 177 Ratings = 4.768

  • 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 Hepworth House is based on 15 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 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 15 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.
