Fabulous care home. Very friendly staff and very happy residents. Our auntie has settled in beautifully, she continues to gain weight because she enjoys the lovely food, especially the puddings. In our view - one of the best care homes in the area; can highly recommend, always a happy atmosphere.

My mum has been in Fairway View for about five years now. The care she has received from day one has been excellent. The last two years she has been bedridden due to ill health. All the staff at the care home look after her so well. When I leave after a visit to see her, I know I don't have to worry
about her. I can't praise the staff enough.

Reply from Rebecca Selkirk, PR Executive at Fairway View

The staff at Fairway View are very helpful, friendly and caring. We recently had Mum's birthday party and the staff were very helpful with holding the party at the home. We felt welcome and photographs of the event were also provided afterwards.
Thank you.

Fairway View is an outstanding care home. Staff are very helpful. Residents are very well looked after, residents look busy with activities. My father joined Fairway View early September and it was the hardest thing I ever had to do. Two months on my dad looks well, is eating very well and has gained
three and a half kilos in weight.

Fairway View Care Home is the best I have seen, very welcoming. Staff are very friendly, nice lounge/dining area, good choice of meals, very clean, doesn't have a smell. Wide passageways to bedrooms. Bedrooms are a very good size with fitted wardrobe, dressing table, chest of drawers, TV and fridge.
There is a good size bathroom with shower. They have activities twice a day if they want to join in. Good outdoor area. Guests are allowed to stay and have a meal with their relatives (must book before you arrive). The hairdresser comes every week, this is included in the price.

Fairway View care home is excellent compared to other homes I've visited. The surroundings and decor are very clean and tidy, the home is well looked after, big windows upstairs give it a very airy feeling, meals are good and the choice is varied, tea served during the day with biscuits and cake, you
can even make yourself a cup of tea. They have activities daily and trips out for residents. The management and staff are lovely, nothing is too much trouble, any problem the staff will sort it out and report back to you as soon as possible. Thank you so much for the care you give mum.

My friend of more than 60 years became a resident at Fairway View just after Christmas 2017. Since then, I have visited her every week. I have been very impressed with the friendly, helpful, thoughtful staff and the variety of weekly activities. My friend has dementia so conversation can be limited
and sometimes very confused, but she is mobile and likes to be active. She has always been very good at flower arranging which is encouraged by the staff and she is given opportunities to do this. She has always been good with young children and recently has been taken, with others, to a local nursery. According to the staff, my friend is a star at reading to and with the children and both enjoy it. I have joined in some of the exercise sessions and the monthly Holy Communication, both of which she enjoys, especially the hymn singing. Staff encourage each resident to do and enjoy as much as possible within their limits. It is good to see so many enjoying the provided entertainment and singing, even getting up to dance. Given her mental impairment, my friend could not be in a better place for her physical, spiritual and leisure needs.

Reply from Samantha Blair, Customer Care Advisor at Fairway View

It is great to hear your positive feedback. All the staff team agree that it is an honour to have your friend living here at Fairway View as she is a lovely, caring lady who always goes out of her way to help others. We have lots of positive comments about your friend’s beautiful flower arrangements and we know how much she enjoys creating them. Thank you very much for taking the time to review our home as feedback is extremely important to us and we will be sure to pass your comments onto the whole staff team.

My relative (Godmother) has lived at Fairway View for nearly a year and is very settled which is entirely due to the care she receives. The staff treat all the residents with such kindness and humour and frequently take the time (difficult at times) just to be with them and chat.
The welcome, we as
family and friends get is lovely and has made what could have been a very difficult time a positive experience. Thank you.

Mum's fear of leaving home was soon put at rest on meeting the staff at Fairway View. She loved every day of her ten days. She talks about her pampering day with a big smile and having her hair washed, thoroughly enjoyed her bath as opposed to a shower. Her fear of falling out of a single bed rapidly
disappeared because a bed rail was provided and she was overall happy with everything else.

Reply from Kristyna Hunt, Communications Executive at Fairway View

Thank you so much for your kind words about Fairway View. Our staff work hard to make a real difference for our residents, so they will be so pleased to hear that they were able to make your mum's stay comfortable and enjoyable and that her fears were put to rest. How wonderful that she took part in the pamper day and remembers it fondly, and that she was able to take advantage of the bathing facilities. We will ensure that your comments are passed to everyone at Fairway View.

The management team and staff treated my husband with respect and dignity and love from the moment he joined Fairway View.
The room was kept clean and tidy at all times and the food was very good.
I joined my husband for Sunday Lunch during his time there and it was delicious.
Each and every member
of staff also treated me with respect during what was a very difficult time, they were all very kind and extremely helpful.

My grandmother had dementia and was loved and cared for at this delightful home. I use the word home very carefully as that is what it was. We searched for the right place for my grandmother and struck lucky with Fairway View. The building is warm, cosy and welcoming, as are the rooms. Care is genuine,
kind and compassionate. The food is all home cooked, plentiful, varied and of a good quality. Likes and dislikes are noticed and catered for. Even the kitchen staff join in celebrations and know the residents personally. Visitors are welcomed and are frequent because of this. Fairview is a God send and I would highly recommend it for your loved ones. This is what care should look like!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.753)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.753) out of 10 for Fairway View 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 37 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 36 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 4.753 for Fairway View is calculated as follows: ( (367 Excellents x 5) + (59 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (10 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 441 Ratings = 4.753

  • 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 Fairway View is based on 36 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 41 registered maximum number of service users is 8.2, which has been reached with 36 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.
