Residents, family and friends have been rating thousands of care homes all over the UK and have revealed the top residential care settings in the country.

Choosing a care home can be extremely time consuming and tiring and it is a life-changing decision, so getting the views of the actual people living in a care home is invaluable.

The UK’s leading review site for care homes, carehome.co.uk, has compiled over 120,000 reviews and looked at a whole range of categories, including the quality of care, facilities, overall standard, staff, activities and value for money.

She added: "The reviews on carehome.co.uk reveal that many care homes are filled with warmth and laughter, where staff do their utmost to ensure residents continue to live life to the full and are treated with dignity and respect."
