My mum has been in Horsefair for nearly a year now. I always thought that it would be awful visiting her in a care home, but how could I have been so wrong. From the minute you walk in to the place, it's like walking into a hotel. The receptionist's always greet you with a smile on their faces and all
the staff do an amazing job. When I visit it is like one big happy family and my mum has settled in so well. Thank you for looking after her.

My mother, stayed at Horse Fair Care Home, and I can't thank the staff enough for the wonderful care she received. She was looked after with kindness, patience, and genuine compassion throughout her stay. The team made every effort to support her in ways that helped bring out her old self, which meant
so much to us as a family. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and we always felt reassured that she was in safe and caring hands. I highly recommend Horse Fair Care Home to anyone looking for a place where their loved ones will be treated with dignity and respect.

Mum has been in Horse Fair for 6 months now and in that time all the staff have been so helpful and understanding, not just for Mum but for the family as well. The support they have provided Mum through all of the events and activities have been fantastic. Mum has so many laughs and jokes all day with
us and the staff.
I have stayed for lunch a couple of times and the food, cakes and coffee were amazing.
We are kept informed about Mum's care and any needs that crop up - we have a monthly residents meeting where I have the opportunity to discuss the activities at the home and the good work the staff do.

Reply from Sheryll ., Client Liaison Manager at Horse Fair Care Home - Avery Healthcare

Thank you so much for your kind words! It's wonderful to hear that both your mum and your family feel supported and cared for at Horse Fair. We love seeing her enjoy the activities and sharing laughs with everyone-it truly makes our work so rewarding. It's also great to hear you've enjoyed the food when joining us for lunch! Your feedback means a lot to our team, and we look forward to continuing to provide the best care and experiences for your mum. Thank you again for your support.

The staff at Horse Fair Care Home made it a seamless transition for my mum moving in on Christmas eve.
They could not of made us more welcome and supported all of us through this difficult time.
The rooms are nice and large with en suite facilities and since we added my mum's furniture and pictures
in place it is now a home from home for her.
The activities and entertainment they provide daily is second to none, with staff constantly at hand.
My mum now feels safe and appears to be slot less stressed & seems relaxed than her last few weeks at home and in hospital.
The staff are all friendly and helpful and there is a real family environment, we would recommend Horse Fair to anyone.

This was a very painful experience for us to put Mum into a care home. With Mum suffering from dementia, she couldn't understand why this was happening to her which made this a very traumatic time for us all. The staff were so helpful, supportive and professional throughout the whole process and so
caring and understanding to all of our requests. We cannot thank the staff enough. Such a wonderful support. Many thanks to all.

Needed more hands-on care. Had a rash and don't know how often it was treated. Needed help with getting dressed i.e. the right things to put on. The same with morning and night.
Residents with dementia seemed to be isolated on the top floor. I don't know if they were all allowed down into the garden
in the nice weather. On the plus side, the artwork on his bedroom door, cycling which was his hobby when young. Also, labelling of clothes worth every penny of £25.

Reply from Sheryll Ough, CSM at Horse Fair Care Home - Avery Healthcare

Thank you for sharing your observations regarding our dementia clients and their access to the garden. We truly appreciate your feedback, as it helps us enhance the experiences we provide. Our lovely garden is accessible to all residents and is frequently enjoyed during the warmer months. We love to share many of these wonderful memories on our social media page.

Thank you for inviting my parents along to the afternoon dream tea at Horse Fair last week. It was kind of you to remember them after my dad's respite stay with you last year, following an operation because of the amazing care at Horse Fair he was able to move to a new apartment to live independently
with my mam. Hopefully, they can catch up with you all again soon.

Reply from Lisa, Customer Service Manager at Horse Fair Care Home - Avery Healthcare

It was an absolute delight to have your parents join us for cream tea. It was such a privilege to have dad stay with us after his operation, but even better to have helped towards getting him home to mum. They will always be welcome for a cuppa and cake.

The care, respect and credibleness from all staff at Horse Fair was outstanding towards my mom as she spent what was to be the last 4 months of her life. Unfortunately, not long after moving to Horse Fair, she was diagnosed with a terminal illness. Mom really enjoyed being at Horse Fair before her illness
and during the darker times before her passing, the compassion, love and friendliness was out of this world. We wish Mom had moved there many months before.

We cannot thank Horse Fair enough for all the help they have given us over the past 6 years with my stepmother. They are so caring and every member of staff knows her and cares about her welfare. Recently she had a fall and the team was so supportive and caring keeping me updated every step of the way
as I live long-distance. They called the paramedics and kept my stepmother calm and happy throughout. They kindly escorted her to hospital to get checked out as we have no living relatives or friends nearby. They always go over and above the call of duty, one of the staff stayed with her all day, and even when they hadn't received ambulance transport back to the care home past 8 pm at night! We cannot thank you all enough for all you do for us and our stepmother. There have been many examples of this sort of care over the years and we are so very grateful. We are so glad we found the best possible care home for her. Thank you all.

Reply from Lisa, Customer Service Manager at Horse Fair Care Home - Avery Healthcare

Thank you for your kind words, they really do mean a lot to us, and have been passed on to the team. We know how hard it is for relatives when they live a long distance, and we are delighted to hear that you were kept updated throughout your stepmother's recent trip to hospital. You are right when you write, every member of staff knows her and cares about her welfare, she is very much part of the Horse Fair Family. Thank you for taking the time to write a review.

When viewing care homes for Mum in February, we had no idea what to expect. Walking through the door into Horse Fair was very comforting to see a lovely, clean, welcoming reception area and greeted by a staff member, was given refreshments and shown around. We were impressed with the bedrooms and spacious
ensuite wet rooms and the lovely dining rooms. Mum went in on a 6 week respite agreement and after 3 weeks signed up as a permanent resident. She's made friends, loves the food and the staff are like her new family. We feel we could not have chosen anywhere better for her and it's only 5 minutes by care from her previous home.

Horse Fair, thank you so much. As a family we had to make the hardest decision of our lives, sleepless nights worrying over the heartbreaking decision that Dad at 90 was no longer able to give Mom the care she required and we were unable to be with her 24/7. Mom has Alzheimer's. Mom was offered a choice
of 3 available care homes. We are so pleased that Horse Fair was one of them. As a family we are made to feel part of their family, the staff are so friendly and passionate. We can not believe how quickly Mom is settling in better than we ever imagined, she has made friends and complying with tasks we said she wouldn't allow. Food is very plentiful and residents all seemingly enjoy it. The staff are amazing truthful and reassuring. The overall feeling when you enter is this could be a hotel with a clean friendly atmosphere. We are so happy we found Horse Fare. We look forward to attending and supporting all activities in the future. You are all amazing caring people.

My wife was admitted into the care home as a respite resident in May 2023 but then became a permanent resident in September 2023. Since her initial admittance, she has received excellent care in all respects from a friendly and dedicated staff throughout the care home and this is reflected in my excellent
rating in all options. As a regular visitor to the home, I see the dedication and professional care that is in place. We all know that there is no cure or going back for dementia so it is good to know that my wife is being given the dignity, respect, empathy and loving care that she deserves. God bless all of the staff and residents in this care home.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.793)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.793) out of 10 for Horse Fair Care Home - Avery Healthcare 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 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 34 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 4.793 for Horse Fair Care Home - Avery Healthcare is calculated as follows: ( (325 Excellents x 5) + (69 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 401 Ratings = 4.793

  • 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 Horse Fair Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on 34 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 72 registered maximum number of service users is 14.4, which has been reached with 34 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.

Hello, my name is Kirsty, and I have the privilege to be the Deputy Manager at Horse Fair Care Home.


I started my journey in health care when I joined Horse Fair in 2012. I hold an NVQ level 3 in Health and Social care and currently working towards a Level 5 Diploma in Leadership in Health and Social care.
