I spent a week at Nowton convalescing after a hip replacement. The team was excellent in helping me adjust to life after hospital and went the extra mile to meet my needs to be comfortable. The manager was particularly helpful in sorting out specific needs and transportation. I found food, room, comfort,
and the other residents a relaxing experience that allowed me to concentrate on rehab.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Nowton Court for either long - or short-term stays, as I am sure you will get excellent service and be looked after, in a world where that is in short supply.

Reply from Sam Dacey, House Manager at Nowton Court Village

It was an absolute pleasure having you on board. We look forward to seeing you both for Christmas lunch!

A very enjoyable two weeks were spent at Nowton Court Village. Very good company, comfortable conditions in all rooms. The idea of the stay was to give me an experience of communal living now I am 88 years old. Will most definitely be back.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My mother has been receiving respite care at Nowton Court now for five weeks and I cannot fault any aspect of the care she has received. The rooms are lovely, as is the building, and the setting, on the edge of a local park, could not be better. The staff are so helpful and attentive and clearly very
well supported by the manager, who has many years experience in the job. The care and attention my mother has received have been very much focussed on her particular needs and has enabled her to make good progress with her return to mobility (which was very poor when she arrived there), has ensured that she is eating well again (the food is wonderful!) and she is joining in with activities and socialising, which is lovely to see. I feel it important to stress that the support and assistance have also been very forthcoming to me as I have had many questions, which have always been patiently and very helpfully dealt with. An excellent place.

Reply from Rosemary Lawson, Manager at Nowton Court Village

Thank you for your kind words. It is an absolute pleasure supporting your mother and seeing how far she has improved, since her arrival.

I came to Newton Court for respite, following surgery. The kindness, care and consideration has been exemplary from all staff at every level. Nothing is too much trouble or treated as insignificant. The food is of good quality, varied and so tasty. I have looked forward to every mealtime and never been
disappointed. The country house feeling of the lovely building is retained and is relaxing and conducive to recovery, with activities to take advantage of or not. A wonderful place to be.

My stay at Nowton Court Village for respite care has been a wonderful experience. The kindness and care from all members of staff have been exemplary. Your manager, most especially, even went beyond the call of duty by collecting me from the hospital on her weekend leave. The food is on par with any
first-class restaurant and the accommodation is superb.

Only positive things to say about our experience - all the staff, and particularly the manager, were warm, professional, understanding, tactful and kind. My mother was treated with respect and good humour. It was reassuring to be in the hands of those who have seen it all and who care about each resident
as an individual.

I am nearly at the end of my third stay at Nowton Court since early 2019. Following a fall in which I sustained pulled muscles etc, in a thigh which I fractured last year, as well as a fractured wrist, I needed a period of recuperation. Once again I enjoyed a most beneficial stay, with the opportunity
to have a complete rest being of great benefit to my legs recovery. Despite the extra restrictions imposed by the Covid pandemic (staff face masks, no visitors etc.) the staff were most caring and solicitous - the accommodation very comfortable, the meals varied and plentiful and the overall standards have been maintained at a very high level. I can wholeheartedly recommend Nowton Court to anyone who asks me.

Nowton Court is an impressive and welcoming facility, in beautiful grounds. It can feel like a hotel, with many beautiful public rooms, especially the bright and airy dining room.
Staff are all very good, from the catering to housekeeping, to the concierges, all offer great care and support. The manager
obviously cares genuinely about residents and was always responsive when contacted.
My mother left after 10 months only because she needed more personal care and we found a place where she could have her own small garden.

Very pleasant. All my needs were catered for i.e. toilet raiser, commode, an electric chair to raise me up. Staff were friendly and very helpful. I do not have a good appetite so asked for a lighter lunch and a salad supper which was duly produced. On Sunday the 10th, an afternoon tea was arranged to
celebrate VE day. As I was in isolation I was unable to attend. I was brought up some cakes and prosecco which cheered me up.

My mother was treated with dignity, care and compassion and I was extremely pleased with how quickly small concerns I had were dealt with. This was a great relief to me as I live 3 hours away from Nowton Court.
The staff at all levels were so caring. We would not hesitate to place Mum at Nowton Court
again for respite care.

The management and catering team went above and beyond to ensure Mum's wake was fitting for her. They treated me with compassion and ensured everything from the first planning meeting up to, and including, the day was stress-free. I cannot thank them enough and Mum would've loved the chocolate cupcakes!
This just confirms the wonderful, compassionate support that has always been given to my late Mum and myself.

I really enjoyed my brief stay at Nowton Court, following major foot surgery at BMI. My big room was a pleasure to be in, particularly the view over the beautiful garden. After the hospital bed, yours was a great joy. It was utterly peaceful, only interrupted by the arrival of nice meals. No one bothered
me but I know help was there if I needed it. I am sure my stay has really helped my good recovery. The only negative was the carpet needed cleaning or replacing and also maybe a bigger TV for such a big space.

Very comfortable accommodation with very nice furniture and fittings. Food nicely varied on a daily basis but sometimes portions are too large.
All staff are extremely kind and very helpful. It makes you very willing to return if you have to sometime in the future.
I wish them all the best and look
forward to seeing them all again.
