Dad was cared for and looked after by the caring, dedicated and professional staff at The Moorings for 4 months. We can't praise them highly enough. He and all the family truly appreciated their friendship and care at the end of his life.

The Moorings is an absolutely amazing home with the kindest, nicest, most compassionate staff. My mother arrived in August 2023 in quite a bad way, but the carers, led by a wonderful lady, managed to settle her well and even got her involved in craft activities which she had never wanted to try in a previous care setting. Sadly, she died in April this year but following her wishes she remained in the care home until the end and I can only say the team were even more wonderful, if that were possible, during her last days. I will be forever grateful for the care, patience, kindness and compassion they showed her and would highly recommend The Moorings as a safe, caring, friendly and all-round fantastic place for a relative or friend. A heartfelt thank you to everyone.

My Mother lived at The Moorings for just over 3 years until she passed away. She always seemed happy, calm and well cared for. The staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. The manager in particular kept us updated on any changes and needs. Mum enjoyed being pushed around the lovely gardens and also watching the rabbits, deer and birds in the fields beyond. Mum was treated with respect and dignity, especially in her last few days. Consequently, she remained calm and peaceful.

As soon as we walked into The Moorings we knew it was the place for Mum. It has the most friendly and welcoming atmosphere and nothing is too much trouble for the staff who take such wonderful care of Mum. (She is taking part in activities which we never thought she would do!). When mum was 90 she was made a lovely cake by the fantastic catering team and all her children and grandchildren were made so welcome for the afternoon. Mum is very happy at The Moorings and thinks of the staff as her friends. I would very much recommend The Moorings to anyone looking for a care home for friends or family.

My mum has been at this care home for several months and I cannot speak highly enough about it. The staff are excellent; very kind and nothing is too much trouble. My mum loves being outside and the secure garden is great. There are always staff around and they are very helpful and supportive. I feel supported too, which is lovely. A superb residential home.

My father and my stepmother went into care at The Moorings together quite a few years back. The staff were excellent in helping them to adjust to their new life and they were able to enjoy several years before my stepmother passed away. The care she received was kind, considered, supportive and allowed them to be together in her end-of-life care. The staff continued to be gently at my dad’s side. Always knowing when he needed a bit more support and allowing him again to make the adjustments to his life. My dad has thrived in the caring, positive and happy atmosphere of The Moorings. He has made lots of friendships and I have never doubted that he is content and safe there. For residents and family it is an enormous step when considering care be it temporary or permanent but I can look back over many years now of my dad’s care at The Moorings and feel that we were fortunate to have found this care home.

From the day we looked around the Moorings when considering where Dad would like to see out his final years, I have nothing but praise for the Moorings. It's a fabulous welcoming and most importantly homely and safe environment. Nothing is too much trouble for any member of staff from the cleaners to the carers. They are like family not only to Dad but to me too. The care and attention they give my dad and everyone in the home is amazing. I genuinely don't know how they do it. They make sure they cater to each resident's individual needs, from the food to the activities so everyone has a chance to eat and do something they enjoy every day. Dad is genuinely so happy and at home here. This is all before you consider the immaculate and beautiful grounds that the care home is situated in. The gardens are kept to a very high standard and are a joy. Also, you can regularly see wildlife wandering in and out of the gardens which is lovely too. We couldn't have found a better care home.

The staff work very hard in making my mum's life comfortable due to difficult circumstances. Always willing to listen and always trying to find ways to make mum's life more comfortable The home has a lovely feel to it in fantastic grounds food freshly cooked daily.

My father has been at the mooring now for a few years. Ever since his arrival, the staff have shown excellent care and handled all of my dad's needs. Since being under the care of the moorings my father has brightened up and his dementia has improved to a level we thought had passed. My mum visits twice weekly and is made to feel so welcome like all of us do. Dad says the food is brilliant and all of the staff from management down to the handyman are always there to help and are so understanding. I have recommended the moorings to others and friends parents also now reside there. Many thanks.

Both my parents went into The Moorings in December 2022. Their care has been excellent. Mum received palliative care and sadly passed away in December 2023. The care and compassion she received was exceptional. Dad being left on his own received love and support from all the staff there after Mum's passing and is still receiving wonderful support. Every time we visit, there is always a friendly atmosphere and nothing is too much trouble.

My husband lived at The Moorings for twenty months and his care, especially in his last days, was exceptional. We are overawed by the kindness and dedication of all his carers, both to him and to ourselves. They looked after us with such love. If you are having a dilemma about arranging care for a loved one, do not hesitate. You will enjoy your visits to their beautiful grounds - as did we. Thank you to everyone.

Prior to her death, my mother was cared for in the most amazing and beautiful facility and spent her last years in the perfect and picturesque surroundings. The management and staff have been fantastic from the very first day to the last, when she passed in her sleep. The attention and care given to her throughout her stay was just exceptional. We could never have found a better place for her to live out the remainder of her life, surrounded by a professional and caring team. Literally, every staff member we came across was simply brilliant. We could not recommend this place highly enough. Our thanks to The Moorings!

The staff cared for my mum with such care, compassion and skill. As a family, we struggled so much with the decision that Mum needed more care and support than we could offer. We visited together and Mum chose The Moorings as a joint decision as a family. Despite finding it hard to settle Mum developed good relationships with people living and working there. As her illness progressed and she experienced difficulties after having had Covid, the staff were always so knowledgeable, supportive and put her needs first. In her last week they enabled us to spend valued and special time together, ensured she was comfortable and enabled her to have a 'good death' for which I will always be so grateful.

My wife was treated with the utmost care and attention, and she died among friends who were her carers. I cannot thank the staff of The Moorings enough, especially the manager who I now regard as my friend. The atmosphere at The Moorings is something that all care homes should aspire to. With grateful thanks.

My sister was a resident of The Moorings from September 2004 to February 2019 (14 half years). She had an excellent relationship with the manager who was in charge and all the staff. They took care of her for fourteen and a half years which is testiment to that. I would be happy to end my days there.
