After her health deteriorated and dementia set in, I took the difficult decision that my aunt needed to go into a home.
From my first contact with the manager, it was all very positive, and my aunt settled in well and was lovingly cared for. The staff were kind and friendly to my aunt as well as myself
- nothing was too much trouble for them.
During her final days in January, she was cared for with great compassion and dignity, which was a great comfort to me.
Thank you all.

As a family we made a difficult decision that would help mum get the best positive care for her dementia needs. After a viewing of Cilymaenllwyd Care Home the manager showed us what the care home could offer. She took mum under her wing and introduced her to the other residents. Mum settled well and
the staff treated her just like their own family. We had a link to their private social media page and could see Mum enjoying activities the care home offered, singing, skittles bingo, arts and crafts, and outings in the minibus to name a few. The hairdresser was lovely as Mum always wanted her hair to look nice. During my visits to take Mum out she would talk of the lovely food she had eaten. Overall I feel with the kind caring and helpful encouragement from all the staff Mum was part of the family. During Mum's final days, all the staff gave us as a family a warm caring courteous and dignified approach. Our thanks go out to the manager and all her wonderful staff.

Since my mother's diagnosis of mixed dementia four years ago it has been sad to see her physical and mental deterioration over the last year. It was a hard decision to make to place my mother in a care home. However, I was so lucky and fortunate to find Cilymaenllwyd Care Home, from the time she moved
in there all the staff have been so supportive, kind, caring and compassionate.
My mum has never lost any of her dignity and is treated with respect and kindness at all times. Whenever I visit my mother the carers are always happy, hard-working and respectful not only of my mother but the other residents as well. When my mother was able to she would often go out for lunch with some other residents which I know she absolutely loved. My mum is treated like royalty and so are the other residents. Cilymaenllwyd has been nothing short of amazing and I know my mum is receiving the highest standard of care.
From the time my mum arrived at Cilymaenllwyd, I could not have asked for better care.

After a tough few years, in March 2022 we made the decision to move my mum from where she lived to this beautiful care home. Mum’s dementia was deteriorating, however, the move to Cilymaenllwyd was the best decision as a family we ever made. From the time Mum arrived, I couldn’t have asked for any better
care. This care home has a hands-on manager who leads by example. The staff at Cilymaenllwyd are nothing short of amazing. Mum never lost any of her dignity and settled well and this is down to how the staff made her feel and how they looked after her.
Watching your mother slipping away in front of your eyes is heartbreaking but knowing she is getting the best care is comforting.
I would highly recommend this care home.

Mum moved into this care home 18 months ago. The staff were very attentive to her needs. She enjoyed the entertainment and trips out in the home's minibus. Mum had dementia and the staff were always available to help and encourage her in every way. The home is a beautiful building with fabulous views
over farmland and the estuary. During Mum's final days, the staff were respectful and dignified.
Thank you to the manager and the staff.

I have a relative who is very happy at this care home and has now been there for several years. My personal observation when visiting is that staff are kind and caring to the residents. My relative’s health has improved in the last year or so as staff have arranged for her medical needs to be attended
to. She praises the quality of the food, activities and entertainment provided. She particularly enjoys the weekly minibus days out. Her room is of a high standard with excellent views of the sea. My relative thinks highly of the care home manager who has been very positive, professional and approachable whenever I have contacted her for advice. Arranging a visit to see my relative is straightforward and every effort is made to bring her to the phone when I ring the care home. This review is based on my personal observations when visiting and what I have been told by my relative.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.184)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.184) out of 10 for Cilymaenllwyd Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 out of 5 from 6 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 4.972 for Cilymaenllwyd Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (69 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 71 Ratings = 4.972

  • 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 4.212 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cilymaenllwyd Care Home is based on 6 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 = 3.6

    • 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 49 registered maximum number of service users is 9.8. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.8 = 0.612

  • 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.
