My brother who has constant falls, as he had when at home. He is aware of his situation. Staff can only do their best by keeping him under observation when possible and encourage him to be involved in activities. My brother is a loner, living as a single person for many years.

I have looked after a neighbour for 2 1/2 years. She now is in need of 24 hour care. She is 93. I found Windmill Manor who were also willing to take her small beloved dog - Mal. Everyone has helped her settle in. They have also been extremely kind to my husband and I. I would recommend this home to
anyone.

The genuine desire to provide care is strongly evident in Windmill. My experience over 18 months of caring for my mother was, there seemed to be a core of very good carers who you could always rely on to provide the 'best'. But there were carers who didn't exhibit to the same level, some more recently
recruited, which is why I have marked 'good' overall rather than excellent. I would have liked a bit more interaction during the day with residents but it was sometimes evident staff shortages meant this couldn't happen as much. My mother's end of life' care was superb.

It can be very daunting for residents and their families when a loved one moves into a care home. We took time to look at our options and found that Windmill Manor offered the best care and environment for Mum. The care team were very understanding, and although it took Mum time to settle she is happy
and safe.

My Mum is well cared for. The interaction between staff and residents is always caring. The staff are very understanding and helpful and deal with any distressed behaviour from residents in a kind and compassionate way. My sister and I are very happy with how my Mum is cared for and we now don't have
to worry about our Mum as she is safe.

My wife, a dementia sufferer has received efficient and loving care since entering the home.


The staff, particularly the carers, are always considerate but maintaining this standard is made difficult by the high turn-over.

Carers are wonderful! Mum often does not want to get up in the mornings or shower, but they always manage to do more than I ever would ever be able to do with my own mother! Mum was quite thin and not remembering to eat when she first came, but now she is looking like her old self again. Our thanks.

My friend was admitted as an end of life approach resident. I promised her I would not let her enter a care home - that I would nurse her at home (which I did for 2 years) but her condition worsened to such an extent that I had no other option. Among other things, my friend has vascular dementia so
was not wholly aware of her circumstances. I could not have chosen a more caring home for her.

The home specialises in dementia care. The atmosphere is lovely and staff are supportive and friendly.


Nursing care is of a good standard and other care offered is good and professional.


Relatives are well supported, both by staff and other relatives and included in many activities.


Food is

very good. My husband has now put on too much weight! On admission, he was very thin!

I believe our Mother is well cared for at Windmill Manor. She always looks clean and fresh and her health appears good. The staff are always very friendly, despite being busy, and they appear to include residents as much as they are able. However, I am not too sure how much staff time allows for 'one
to one' interaction. Being able to drop by to see our mother at any time during the day is very helpful, and I also see the home as it runs on a daily basis. It is especially nice to be able to take Mum out into the coffee lounge/reception.

Mum is very well looked after by the staff at Windmill Manor, all of whom seem very caring and treat her with real affection and respect. The food is good and despite having a very small appetite she enjoys her meals. They make an effort to provide Mum with high-calorie supplements, to counteract her
falling weight, and always let the family know if there are concerns about her health.

My family and I are very happy that my mother settled into the care home without any difficulty. The admission procedures were smooth, and she soon adapted to the daily routine. She is well-fed and well cared for, and seems as happy as her dementia seems to allow her to be.

My father came to Windmill Manor from another home, where he was extremely unhappy and would constantly pace. That stopped almost immediately. The home feels relaxed and comfortable. The staff are totally dedicated to the care of the residents and despite my father's issues, they are nothing but caring
and supportive to him.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.815)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.815) out of 10 for Barchester Windmill Manor 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 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.815 for Barchester Windmill Manor Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (289 Excellents x 5) + (50 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 346 Ratings = 4.815

  • 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 Barchester Windmill Manor Care Home is based on 29 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 29 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.
