My mother has recently moved to Bradbury House. She has settled in really well thanks to all the wonderful staff. I would not hesitate to recommend Bradbury House. Thank you.

A wonderful afternoon tea with out mum. The staff here are fantastic, so hard working and so caring to all their residents as well as visitors. No problems and if there are any they are immediately solved or put right. A absolute pleasure and our mum love it here. With dementia, she thinks she is in a 'holiday camp' how much happier can this get.

Wonderful staff so kind and caring to our mum and all residents. Everyone is so happy here. They is always so much for everyone to do and to interact with each other. Mum has dementia and is so well cared for and I recommend this home to everyone. Mum being here is the best thing we could of done for her to keep her brain going. She is so happy.

The staff are amazing, also very attentive and helpful. The residents are given so much care and attention, with care and arranged activities. The staff are very caring and patient. They go above and beyond.

Nan has been at Bradbury House for 8 months now and we could not be happier with how she is being looked after. There are activities everyday, you can tell it is like a family here and the residents are loved and looked after. The social media posts also mean I get to see my nan everyday. The staff here go above and beyond and we feel extremely lucky that nan got a place here.

We are so happy with the care my mum is receiving at Bradbury House. Her health has noticeably improved since she has been there and we are relieved that she is receiving such great care. The manager is always working hard every time we see her, the administrator has been a great help with finances and the activities lady is always offering a varied and interesting choice of activities and events. Please pass on my family's thanks to all the staff there.

My mother-in-law moved in December. This care home has a very cosy feel and feels more like a B&B than a care home. That is a compliment as I viewed many care homes and they all felt clinical. Bradbury House has a lovely feeling when you walk in. Every carer is exceptional, including the management and all staff that work here. Chef, cleaner, handyman are all very lovely. I am very happy my mother-in-law is here. I would only say that on some occasions they seem short-staffed but otherwise, very impressed.

I can only congratulate Bradbury House on the wonderful care that they give to my brother. Having attended many of their functions, spoken to many of their residents, I have only seen happy faces and happy people. My brother is a changed person since being in Bradbury House and I cannot praise the wonderful staff enough.

When we first visited Bradbury House, I knew it was where I wanted my mum to live. The place immediately felt homely, and the staff we met were great. The food is lovely, and all the staff are so caring to every resident. They have different activities every day, which is great for my mum as she likes to keep busy. I can visit anytime and always feel welcome. Nothing is too much trouble. Bradbury House is definitely a home-from-home.

My husband has been in Bradbury House for just over nine months. He is happy, relaxed and enjoys the many and varied activities and outings. He says the food is always very good and his 24-hour care is excellent. I have noticed that the staff give every resident their individual time and care with a smile. The manager sets a fine example by being proactive and friendly, which means that the atmosphere of the home is always warm and a joy to visit .

Bradbury House in Braintree has been outstanding in every aspect from our experience. The level of care and effort shown by every member of the staffing team has been beyond our expectation. This is not just for the care provided but the activities, dining and support provided. The overall feeling set in an older style building with a historical connection to Braintree creates more of a family home environment rather than that of a residential home, although every level of support is provided. The freedom to visit at any time and regularly witness life at Bradbury House along with the regular social media updates is so reassuring for the family. In our opinion, Bradbury House is an excellent residential care home. The monthly rate for staying at Bradbury House is exceptionally good value from our experience.

My father has been at Bradbury House for a few months now and has received kind and compassionate care from all the team. He has had a couple of appointments at hospital which have been organised without hassle. I visit unannounced and always find him clean and tidy. The other residents are all happy as well when I visit.

Staff are kind and caring. My mother is immobile with dementia but feels safe at Bradbury House. She is comfortably warm in her room and has enough to eat and drink. My mother prefers to stay in her own room but I think she should be made to join in some activities with the other residents. She did enjoy the Christmas Party and joined in the singing. Thank you.

I have, myself, been a carer for twenty-four years. I have to say, Bradbury House is one of the best I have seen. My sister is the happiest I have seen her for a very long time. I have no concerns, and it makes me happy to see her so well looked after. It also gives all the family peace of mind. Thank you for your time.

My dad has literally settled in so well. He loves his new home and says that everyone is very friendly. He describes Bradbury House as a five-star hotel. My experience is that the home is friendly, welcoming and caring. Seeing Dad so happy for me means that Bradbury House is amazing. I cannot praise this care home enough, it's home from home.

My 90-year-old mum had a fall and went into Bradbury House Care Home for respite, she quickly decided to stay, she has made friends and gone out on trips and has become a firm favourite with the carers. I was very worried when we made this decision but I visit all the time and am made welcome. She has a lovely room and gets brilliant care at all times.

Bradbury House is a place where you can call home immediately. As you walk through the door, the staff are so friendly and helpful. It has a wonderful atmosphere. Even though my mother only stayed for a short period of time, her last days were filled with laughter and companionship. She became animated and interested in talking to new friends. You succeeded in finding my mum, her cheeky self returned, and she was so happy, eating, drinking, talking; she had given up on life until Bradbury House and their lovely staff. My only regret is her time with you was far too short. Thank you from a very grateful daughter.

I have been an ex-NHS volunteer at Bradbury House since last July, having been to a couple of other care homes in the past. I was struck from the beginning at the lovely, homely feeling, being a bit smaller than some of the other care homes I have visited. I can honestly say that I have been so impressed at all the staff from the management team (frequently seen on the floor participating wildly in activities - have never experienced managers outside of their office!) down to the carers and activity staff in the obviously caring way that the home is run. Staff are extremely empathetic and go out of their way to ensure residents' mental wellbeing and stimulation as well as the more everyday tasks. I very much enjoy my weekly visit!
