My father had an assisted living apartment in the village for several years where he was able to lead an active, semi-independent life with the support provided by the wonderful staff. Recently he had to make the move to the 24-hour nursing care unit and the transition was eased by everyone including
the old cleaners who came to visit him in his new location as did the social events staff. The level of care provided in both settings has been exemplary, not just professional but warm and personal with a smile no matter what the support needed. As a regular visitor, I also appreciate the friendly welcome from the reception desk onwards and the feeling of the community reaching out to include me.

Having had a fantastic time maintaining his independence in one of the village suites, it came time a few weeks ago for my father to move into its Sycamore Care Home. The local doctor was so helpful in telling us when that time had arrived. The transition went like a dream. My father just caught the
lift up one floor and he was home. He immediately perked up! He was clearly relieved to be there and the welcome was warm. He lives in a community - the care home staff spoil him; his cleaner from his suite pops in to say hello; the entertainment staff make his day when they pop by to say hello or have organised an event and of course, he already knows one or two of the other residents.
I can't recommend Richmond Letcombe Regis enough.

My mother died today (11th August) and I can't compliment the whole staff enough. Laundry, admin, nurses, doctors, and the most wonderful carers. Some very young and old devoted to respect, care professionalism and empathy, and many cups of coffee. I do truly wish they were paid more and not under such
pressure from the shortage of staff, what a truly wonderful service it would be! The staff cope admirably but during COVID this has been so very hard.

Thank you for your kind words. Your mother was very much a part of our community and is sadly missed. It was a real privilege to support you all at such a personal time. We will be sure to pass on your comments to the team.

My aunt, aged 94, had lived at Richmond Letcombe for three years and during February 2020 went through end-of-life. The staff on Sycamore were extremely caring and supportive and during the final period offered 24-hour attendance for my aunt. The latter was welcomed by my aunt and of great assistance
to the family. Staff were communicative to the family and adapted their support and care to the specific needs of my aunt which meant that it was not necessary to transfer her to a hospice. We would offer a full recommendation on behalf of Richmond Letcombe for the professionalism of their teams who provided caring and facilities.

Reply from Paul Welch, Deputy Village Manager at Richmond Villages Letcombe Regis

Thank you for the positive review of the care we provided for your Aunt during her 3-years with us. Being able to support residents through end-of-life care in familiar surroundings, rather than transferring to hospital or hospice, is really important to those individuals and their families. We are proud of the caring environment we provide and greatly appreciate your comments.

My mother was a resident of Richmond Village for 7 years. She was on Sycamore ward for 5 1/2. I live in America and visited every 2/3 months for 5 years.
In this time I never had any worries at all as I left after each trip, that my Mum was not receiving the best of the best in care and support from
the team at Letcombe Regis. This is a beautiful facility and staffed by the most amazing people. Sadly we said goodbye to the village in December as I lost my Mum then. Really sad in so many ways to say goodbye to Richmond Village. This is a first-class team.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

With my mother's increasing dementia, living in their own home became very difficult for both my parents. They moved to an assisted living apartment in 2015. As my mother worsened, she moved into the dementia unit, around the corner from their apartment. My father was able to be with her every day and
take her for meals. She died in 2017. The quality of the care she received during her stay and in her final days was of a very high standard with genuine warmth and affection, combined with excellent nursing care. She was always treated with respect and gentleness. My father's own condition worsened and in 2019, he moved into the 24-hour nursing care unit as the support provided by the domiciliary carers was no longer enough. In the unit, he is looked after with genuine affection, warmth and with a great deal of respect. He is not fitted into a system, but the system is tailored to his needs and wishes as much as possible.

All the staff are helpful and cheerful. Should be paid sick pay. More carers would help to take the pressure off the already overworked staff. It's unacceptable that patients should have to wait to be taken to the toilet. Glad to see from this month patients from Sycamore and Maple are being taken out
on little trips.
More carers for the bedtime period needed one carer in the lounge area when patients in there. Think about strips between carpet/lino patient got stuck there and fell over trying to get her walker over it.

Our mother, lived in the Maple Dementia Unit at Richmond Letcombe Regis for seven years before she passed away peacefully aged 95. We visited her regularly and, over all this time, the carers were consistently patient and helpful to all the residents in Maple, however challenging the situation. We admire
them all greatly and are deeply thankful for the long hours they put in caring for people with dementia - no easy job. All the staff on Maple - carers, cleaners, nurses, those serving tea and coffee etc - were invariably friendly and caring to both residents and their families. We so appreciate the gentle and loving care all the staff gave our mother daily. From the outset we were made to feel welcome and we could see our mother felt safe and loved throughout her years in Maple, and could not have been happier or more peaceful during the last years of her life. With many thanks.

The care provided by the team in Sycamore is fantastic. I cannot thank them enough for the care they give to my father. He is probably not the easiest resident with his increasing dementia, but the patience and genuine kindness shown by the staff is amazing. They treat him with dignity and respect at
all times. I am so grateful to them for everything they do.

I have had lunch in this home a number of times during the past year, as a guest of one of the residents. The food is very disappointing and dull. The starter menu is repetitive with mediocre soups. The main courses appear to have been kept warm for some time so are often dry and unappetising, the vegetable
portions are small and very repetitive. The pudding menu often consists of tinned fruit salad and bought in puddings. I feel this home is taking advantage of its residents, many of whom are too elderly to complain.

My husband is sometimes lying on his bed looking very uncomfortable with legs on the floor when I arrive in the afternoon (and other friends have found him like this). Otherwise, he will be in his chair - sometimes with his bell out of his reach and unable to reach a drink. Today I found him wearing
pyjama bottoms and the last of his polo shirts - previously he has been wearing a shirt with spills all down the front. Today I found he had no spare clothes. After much enquiry, a carer brought back at least 5 shirts and 3 trousers and clean pyjamas from the laundry - some had been away for at least 5 days or more.

I am sorry to hear of your concerns for your husband and his experience in the Care Home. We welcome the opportunity to improve our standards of Care and I will address these issues with the team to see how they have arisen.

We have been looking for a care home for a number of months as mum has dementia and needs support with her day to day living. Having researched a number of homes in the area, we decided to trial Richmond Village for an initial 2 weeks. 7 weeks later and we have agreed a permanent place for mum. All
the staff, without exception, have been fantastic - moving mum with dementia has not been easy, however, the support staff, care workers and nurses have all gone out of their way to ensure she has settled. They have always made time for us when we have visited with any questions and were very supportive in coming up with different options to try to support mum.


The home itself is excellent with on-site facilities such as a café and restaurant and Mum has been involved in a number of the social activities that are run for the residents such as crafts, music and supper evenings. Making the decision to use a care home is never easy, however, we are very happy with the care that she is receiving - thank you.

My wife has lived in the "Maple" dementia ward since February 2015. The care home is in a low population density area which makes recruitment of suitable care assistants difficult. The problem is clearly exacerbated by financial constraints and the mental condition of the residents. Supervision is variable
in quality. The overall experience is barely satisfactory.

Reply from N Kelaher, Care Home Manager at Richmond Villages Letcombe Regis

Many thanks for your feedback and comments on our Care Floor. We welcome reflection and look for commentary to help us improve. We retain a very committed and genuinely caring team and over this past six months have recruited 8 new staff. We are providing a robust in-house training schedule, with an aim to improve the skill level of our carers and the overall quality of our care. I hope you will see these improvements and please let us know that we are making progress. Once again, many thanks.

We needed to move our friend (for whom I have Power of Attorney) into a care facility very quickly. Thankfully there was a room available at Richmond Letcombe Regis. From the start, the attention to detail and the dedicated manner in which our friend was treated was so very reassuring. The culture shock
of being taken away from home made the transition very difficult and our friend took out her frustration on the staff. Never did I hear or see any adverse reaction from the staff who have worked tirelessly to help her settle. She has been at Richmond Letcombe Regis getting on for 6 months and I would like to publicly thank all the staff on Sycamore for their unstinting and conscientious work.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.577)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.577) out of 10 for Richmond Villages Letcombe Regis is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.577 for Richmond Villages Letcombe Regis is calculated as follows: ( (237 Excellents x 5) + (83 Goods x 4) + (25 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 350 Ratings = 4.577

  • 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 Richmond Villages Letcombe Regis is based on 27 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 53 registered maximum number of service users is 10.6, which has been reached with 27 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.

I was moved over to Richmond Villages Letcombe in the early build stage to help commission the Hospitality, Housekeeping and Laundry areas and after a few years was promoted to Deputy Village Manager.


I really enjoy the role and meeting our residents, working alongside and supporting our fantastic staff, every day brings something different.

Job Title: Head of Activities

Hi, my name is Carol, and I am the activities and wellbeing manager at Richmond Villages Letcombe Regis.


I have been in this industry for around 18 years now. Started by caring for my nan for three years then Dom care, carer in care home, to what I am doing now. I have three children, two dogs and two cats. I love walking, cooking, and reading a book. Making a difference to those that live with us is a passion not a job. It can be very challenging at time but, so rewarding.
