My mother is 92 years old and has advanced dementia and needs 24-hour nursing care. She became a resident at Angela Grace in February 2016. She is well cared for, the staff are kind and treat mum with dignity and respect. Angela Grace is a fairly new building, with comfortable lounges and dining areas.
Mum's room has an en suite and she is able to have personal items in her room. The food is very good and cooked on site. Activities are provided regularly by excellent activities staff.

I'm happy with the service I'm provided. The staff are great - I like to shower every morning and they always help with that. The food is tasty and I have nothing bad to say, I like my room and the environment.

Been here now for over 18 months. Can't speak highly enough of the home and staff. As a regular visitor, I am treated like one of the family.

The Angela Grace Care Home is a warm, friendly and professional environment for all residents and staff. The place is kept immaculately clean and tidy at all times.


As a family, it is a huge relief to know that my mother is so well cared for and most importantly happy.


Staff take their time to

get to know residents,they are patient and kind. Residents are treated with dignity and respect and their voices matter!


Staff are polite and helpful and if ever an issue arises it is dealt with promptly and professionally.


The communal areas are great for socialising and a wide range of activities keep residents active and engaged.


Physiotherapy session encouraged residents to exercise their muscles even with very limited mobility.


The newsletter is fabulous for keeping residents and their families informed.

Overall, the staff are excellent and show great care at all times, the one concern I have is regarding clothing going missing, for example; three pairs of slacks are missing out of five, weekends having to wait for the door to open with no-one on reception, and please more parking spaces. I am sure
there are cars there not belonging to the home.

My Brother-in -Law entered Angela Grace for a six week assessment period. We visited him on several occasions and found it to be a homely and caring environment. The accommodation is well appointed with pleasant and spacious bedrooms and residents are offered a good range of activities applicable to
the nature of their illness. Staff were always welcoming and courteous which enhanced the overall ambience of the home.

I think it's a very good place, It's very caring and I like the staff very much. They are friendly, attentive and willing to do anything for you which is very unusual. I will miss them when I leave. The food is excellent and well cooked. I am sad to be going home.

I simply cannot speak highly enough of The Angela Grace. Dad spent the last 4 weeks of his life here and the care and kindness he received was wonderful. Likewise, the support and understanding I received at this difficult time was both sincere and empathetic. I would not hesitate to recommend The Angela
Grace to anyone finding themselves requiring this kind of care.

Lovely place with lovely staff who cared for my husband so well. I was able to have a week respite in the knowledge that they looked after him so well. The staff couldn't do enough for my husband. I am so glad that I have been able to find a place that I am perfectly happy for my husband to go to,
thank you to everyone.

Many people who I have mentioned the care home to had never heard of it, as its only been open just over a year and although my mum didn't want to go into a home her needs said otherwise. On looking around I could tell it was a lovely place to stay as the staff and facilities were fantastic. I am only
sad that my mum didn't manage to be in there longer before the illness took over but can't thank everyone enough for the excellent palliative care she received and also the support myself and other family members received.

My mother recently passed away in the Angela Grace Care Home, for me this is a 5 star care home. The palliative care and staff were excellent. For the family to know that she was being cared for so well was very reassuring, all mums wishes were respected.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.944)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.944) out of 10 for The Angela Grace Care Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 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 4.944 for The Angela Grace Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (320 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 337 Ratings = 4.944

  • 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 The Angela Grace Care Centre 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 78 registered maximum number of service users is 15.6, 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.
