Landona House has a welcoming feel right from walking in the door. When moving Mum in, the staff were great - very helpful, attentive and went out of their way to help me set u Mum's room. I'm always offered refreshments when visiting. Mum is always clean and well-dressed. The manager has been extremely helpful and responds to all my queries. Staff are very busy but I've occasionally had to ask for things for Mum a couple of times before it gets dealt with, but nothing serious. Overall, very happy with Landona House.

My Brother has a form of dementia. My niece is responsible for him. This home is very welcoming, bright, lovely staff, lots of activities with creative personal interaction with the clients. My Brother seems contented and happy here and loves the food!

Since my mum has been staying in Landona House she has been well looked after. Mum seems to be content and happy. The staff are all wonderful and have really helped Mum settle into the home. The staff are very friendly when I visit and answer any of my questions I have regarding my mum's care. I am very happy with the care Mum is receiving from Landona House.

My sister has lived in Landona House for five years. They have looked after her very well. I would not be able to look after her as I am 81 years old and she is very difficult to look after as she is deaf and has dementia. The management and staff manage her very well and seem to be able to get her to do what is required. The food is very good and her room and sitting rooms are kept clean and tidy.

We have found Landona House to be welcoming, friendly, and understanding of dementia. There is always a relaxed atmosphere at the home. Mum settled in very quickly, she has been resident there for just over two years. I feel happy that she is being cared for so well.

Mum has lived at Landona for just over a year. During this time I have developed an admiration and gratitude to all the staff for their patience, kindness and sense of humour. The staff provide individualised care. They take breakfast to her room if she has had a disturbed night, and they are quick to recognise early signs of a UTI and initiate prompt treatment with antibiotics, one member of staff took washing home to allay Mum's anxiety. The staff are always warm, welcoming and available to update and answer any questions. I am very pleased with the care Mum receives in Landona.

My mother came to Landona with quite advanced dementia/Alzheimer’s in summer 2021 aged 90. At first her transition to care was extremely stressful for her but staff were patient and considerate and certainly contributed positively to her acceptance of her new surroundings and even as her condition inevitably deteriorated with age she continued to receive excellent and friendly care from all staff which continued right up to her recent death. The level of care and compassion shown was simply above and beyond.

My husband who was bedbound was treated extremely well with dignity and compassion. His stay was short and I was also treated very well.
12 April 2023
My mother was a resident of Landona House for seven and a half years until her death there in January 2023. She had been lonely living alone in her own home and had become quite thin. When she became unsafe, we were lucky enough to be able to get her into Landona House. Once she got used to living there she was very happy and enjoyed the company of the other residents, the attention of the carers and the fact that there was always something going on. I have never eaten there myself but the food must be good because Mum enjoyed it and put on quite a bit of weight. Mum was treated with kindness and compassion and could not have been better cared for. It was a great comfort to me to know that she was safe, well looked after and happy. Whenever I visited Mum the staff always made me welcome and were very kind, friendly and helpful. I would certainly recommend Landona House.

Mum was looked after with great care and patience. It was always apparent that she was very much treated as an individual and not just as a resident - the staff knew her, knew her idiosyncrasies and the things that gave her pleasure and it was clear that they took great pleasure themselves in seeing her looked after and happy. Landona House Care Home and Mum’s room in it were always kept clean and comfortable. Staff were always friendly and accommodating towards me and I was always made to feel welcome on visits. I’m tremendously grateful that Mum was so well looked after in her last years.

My mother spent the last two years of her life at Landona House and was looked after wonderfully well by the manager and all of the staff. They were so caring, kind and friendly where nothing was too much trouble. There was always a happy and homely atmosphere there. I was always made to feel so welcome every time I visited and able to phone up and speak to mom any time during the day which was a godsend, especially during the Covid lockdowns. The residents have a lot of varied entertainment during the week where they can interact as they require and the food is excellent and varied. The staff seem to have that special bond with the residents which is so important. I cannot recommend Landona house highly enough and think it is a wonderful place.
31 August 2022
The time my mother spent at Landona House was a happy one. The staff were compassionate and caring accommodating her needs whilst endeavouring to maintain her independence. She enjoyed the planned afternoon activities and the food. The home has a relaxed family feel about it, which was beneficial to my mother. In her final few days, the support to myself and the care for my mother was excellent, they could not have done more to ensure the comfort of both of us.
12 August 2022
My husband has been a resident at Landona House for the last five weeks. It is the best care home I've been in. The staff are kind caring and approachable. The food is excellent. The residents have bingo, quizzes and other entertainment most days of the week. I would have no qualms in recommending Landona House.

Thank you, Landona House care staff. You were so kind to my mum during her stay with you. She came to you following a long stay in hospital where she was not well-treated and she arrived traumatised. She was confused, afraid, unhappy, and isolated, afraid of the unknown but, also, ready to give up. Things were not easy but, through your perseverance and concern to see my mum as a precious individual and to learn from her, she began to have hope again. You were always accommodating and happy to discuss aspects of her care and health. You were also compassionate towards her needs and those of her loved ones. These are difficult times when real care is no longer easy to deliver and in increasingly short supply. Thank goodness then that my mum came to you. I just wish there had been more of you so that you weren't all spread so thin.

Mum entered Landona in May this year and after an initial period settling in quickly became happy and aware she was being fully cared for. Unfortunately, her health started to deteriorate after three months, but the care she then received was excellent with compassion not only for her, but her immediate family due to the additional burden placed on everyone due to the impact of the pandemic. Staff were always prepared to listen, cared for Mum's well being at all times in the twilight of her life and the home is very well led by a very engaging and caring Manager. Building itself is a little outdated, but what truly matters is the care given and we wish to express our thanks for that and to all the staff at Landona.

Mum entered the home towards the end of May and remained there until her death in late October. Throughout that period her care was wonderful. The staff were so friendly and caring, taking time and patience to help her complete her daily tasks. They treated her with respect and kindness at all times, making sure her final days were comfortable. It was lovely for her to spend those last couple of months among people she knew rather than being sent to hospital. She was well fed throughout with plenty of drinks available and she enjoyed the company and entertainment while she was able to do so. While the home itself is not in the most modern of buildings the warmth and compassion she was met with far outstripped her physical surroundings and this is what is the most important. As a visitor, I was always warmly welcomed.
