I have had both of my parents residing at Loveday for over a year now. It has been amazing to witness such dedication, care and personal engagement from all of the team towards both parents and their very different needs. The quality of the medical attention is superb and the kindness and humanity
with which they attend to both Mum and Dad, even in the intense moments that can occur, really has touched us as a family.

Reply from Lisa Nichols, Membership Manager at Loveday Abbey Road

Thank you so much for your lovely review. It has been so pleasing to see both parents move in at different times and settle in at their own pace. We understand that this journey is different for everyone and tailor to the individual needs. It is heartwarming to know that this has made a difference to your family. The team are thankful to have been a part of their journey.

The wonderful staff at Loveday Abbey Road looked after my mother with amazing care and attention for the last 3 months of her life. Selecting Abbey Road to look after her was the absolutely the best decision we made. The reassurance of knowing they could provide residential, nursing and end of life
care in one location gave us peace of mind on an uncertain journey.

Reply from Lisa Nichols, Membership Manager at Loveday Abbey Road

Thank you for your lovely review. We were delighted you made the decision to have your mother move to us and provide her with the best possible care. The team will always be grateful to have had your trust and will hold fond memories of the time she was with us. Our very best wishes.

We knew that moving our aunt with dementia into a home was going to be difficult as she was not accepting of the fact that she needed help and didn't understand her situation. We had to make the move in her best interests without her full knowledge.
The staff were brilliant at managing her move into
Loveday. They were able to charm and distract her and even though there were difficult days, they always cared for her impeccably. The general manager, the nurses, the carers, the activity coordinators, the chefs, the reception staff and the domestic staff all took time to get to know and understand her. Loveday is an incredible place for someone with dementia.
She has been there over a year now and is so much more content than when she was struggling on at home. The staff:resident ratio is good and staff retention seems to be excellent. The staff are very dedicated and appear to genuinely enjoy the job. They have time to provide excellent and individualised care. Highly recommended.

Reply from Lisa Nichols, Membership Manager at Loveday Abbey Road

Thank you for your wonderful review. It has been so pleasing to see your aunt settle well with us at Loveday Abbey Road - everyone loves having her with us. Your recognition of our team's commitment is greatly appreciated. We understand that the move-in process is often a difficult one and make every effort to tailor this to each member at Loveday.

I highly recommend Loveday Abbey Road to anyone who is considering a home for a loved one. It really is like a 5-star hotel in my opinion. It is immaculately kept and the staff are kind, friendly and helpful.
I feel confident that my dearest friend is kept safe and looked after to the highest standards
in every way possible.
I cannot imagine anywhere that is more special for somebody who needs special to be in.
I especially would like to mention General Manager who is exceptional and it is so obvious that all her staff respect her and are devoted to her.

Reply from Monika Jankauskaite, Head of Marketing at Loveday Abbey Road

Excellent nursing home. My wife Jackie spent six weeks at Loveday Abbey Road in a garden-facing respite room on the 4th floor Sadly her stay was always going to be short because she was terminally ill with brain cancer. However the nursing and general care she received was excellent even though she
could be quite demanding. The staff were genuinely caring and generally responded to the call button within 5 minutes or so. The food was excellent and as a family we liked the fact that we could eat in with the resident downstairs or in her room or in the members' lounge where there were always complimentary hot and cold drinks. Think of Loveday as a 5 star all-inclusive hotel with friendly attentive staff and activities where every resident is special and you will not begrudge the cost.

I stayed at Loveday Abbey Road for 11 nights after an operation. It was so wonderful there, I didn't want to leave!
All the staff were amazing and so caring. The food was delicious. The facilities were excellent. The activities were fun. I even did karaoke and danced.
I felt relaxed, safe and so well
cared for. It was like being welcomed into a big family.
When I had down moments, the staff listened and talked with me, nobody was ever too busy.
Thank you to every single one of you at Loveday, it was a pleasure to stay with you.

I stayed at Loveday Abbey Road following a surgical procedure for 8 days. The facility is outstanding in all respects, care was first-class throughout my stay. The food was of restaurant standard and delicious, and I was fully accommodated due to intolerances, nothing was too much trouble. The nurses
provided excellent care, and all staff I met were friendly, professional, hard working and efficient. I have no hesitation in recommending Loveday Abbey Road and have nothing negative to say at all. It is an extremely well-run facility. If I need care of any description in the future I would return there.

It was our pleasure to support your recovery post surgery. Wishing you all the best.

Loveday Abbey Road is an outstandingly good care home with beautiful interiors and an exquisite garden. The food is wonderful and great care is given to providing meals which its residents and their visitors value. It has exceptionally dedicated staff and I feel very grateful that my mother, who has
dementia, has been a resident there for the past nine months. I found the process of moving her into residential care emotionally challenging and at every stage I was supported and it was evident that she and our family as a whole, would be treated with great sensitivity and kindness. With the gentle encouragement of all of the staff, she has engaged in the many activities available and is now extremely settled. For me to know that she is safe and is being beautifully looked after is a tremendous comfort. I looked at three other care homes when deciding where my mother might live and Loveday was in a different league. I would not hesitate to recommend it - it is such a special place.

I spent one night at Loveday Abbey Road following a surgical procedure in order to rest and receive post-op nursing care.
Loveday Abbey Road was such a pleasant experience from the moment I was met by one of the lovely carers escorting me safely from the clinic to Abbey Road.
The building itself was
beautiful, set in a lovely quiet location. As soon as I entered the care home I was greeted with smiling faces and I felt very welcomed indeed. I had a tour of the communal areas and a beautiful garden area where I could sit outside if I wanted. My room was exceptional, nicely furnished and very comfortable to relax after my surgery.
I was looked after by very lovely carers and nurses who made me feel so welcomed and cared for me throughout my stay. I only had to ask if I needed anything. I enjoyed lovely food during my stay and a peaceful night's rest.
My experience at Loveday Abbey Road was a very positive one and I highly recommend Abbey Road.

Loveday Abbey Road is a care home of exceptional quality. The interiors and garden are exquisite, and a warm welcome is provided by every member of the team. It's very clear that people love working in this setting and feel proud of the service they provide. Prior to admitting my relative, who had complex
physical needs, a care plan was established with meticulous attention to detail. Priority was given to nursing arrangements and we were introduced to the nursing team who were professional and kind. Regarding lifestyle preferences, every request was met in full.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (10.000)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (10.000) out of 10 for Loveday Abbey Road 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 5.000 for Loveday Abbey Road is calculated as follows: ( (116 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 116 Ratings = 5

  • 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 Loveday Abbey Road is based on 10 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 26 registered maximum number of service users is 5.2, which has been reached with 10 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.
