My husband was a resident of Beckfield House from January 2021 until February 2024 and in that time I and my family were more than happy at the care he received during those years. We took him out for meals during that time and he was always happy to return. I have nothing but praise for the staff that took care of him. During his last few days the staff were amazing. They took such care of my husband and were so supportive to our family. We couldn't have found a better place for him to spend his final years.

My relative is very happy and settled in the care home. They comment that the food is very good and the staff are "very kind" and look after them well.

Just received a lovely phone call from Mum telling me all about the lunchtime activities Beckfield House Residential Home has hosted this week. Greek day yesterday with traditional Greek food which Mum referred to as being "absolutely delicious". 10/10 to the chef. The best moussaka ever! And todays lunchtime theme was 'pirates'. Mum said the staff's attention to detail dressing the dining tables was just brilliant. Thank you to all the staff, it's so nice to hear Mum upbeat. Days can be long when you are in care. Losing independence after a long spell in hospital has taken it's toll but phone calls like today's give us all hope. Thanks, once again, to all the staff involved.

Always so impressed by the level of care and compassion shown to all of the residents. I would recommend the home every time. Thank you for being such a great asset to Lincoln. Keep up the good work.

Beckfield House feels like a family home where all staff work to provide the residents with the individual care and comfort they need to feel safe and welcome. Residents are encouraged to maintain as much independence as they can. A wide and varied range of activities are on offer. For those who cannot or will not take part, the activities team ensure they have quality one-to-one attention. I'm impressed with the way all staff adopt to meet Mum's ever-changing needs who ranges from being incapable to do anything one day to being fully mobile a few days later. It is a comfort to know that, if I am unable to visit for a period of time, Mum is well cared for and will be to the end of her days.

No serious concerns over wife's care. I have unlimited access to her and I believe she is as happy as can be expected under the present circumstances. Carers/staff do as much as possible to ensure her well-being, even though they may be short-staffed at times. All in all, satisfactory.

My mum has been a resident at Beckfield for almost two years. She went to live at Beckfield after a long stay in hospital. Prior to that she had lived with her family locally. It was a difficult decision to make, but I'm more than happy with the care that Mum receives. The staff are caring and kind and seem to truly love the residents. The activities that they're encouraged to participate in are brilliant; baking, crafts, music, exercise and the relationships with the local community are good with local children's groups visiting. They have even had animals visiting, the picture of my mum with a chicken on her knee was a delight. I have only had to raise a concern on one occasion in the time that my mum has been there and it was dealt with immediately. Communication is open and honest with any concerns that the staff may have being communicated with me straight away.

All staff are very good at what they do. Rooms are very basic, could do with a bit of colour. You are allowed to personalise the rooms for your loved ones. They get everyone to join in and socialise, including my mum and she has always been a loner, so I'm really chuffed with that. She has made friends in there and does have a laugh now. It's a hard thing to put someone into a home, but I know she is in safe hands now. I did it for as long as was safe to do so, but there comes a time when you have to think of their safety. Activities are great they get them doing so much. Baking, knitting, games, gardening, people go in to sing to them, they cater for everyone who wants to join in. I didn't want to take this road with Mum, but it's been good for her, no regrets now.

Beckfield House is an older building which has been converted to meet its current purpose and as a result, compromises had to be made to resident accommodation (the bedroom I occupied, for example, lacked en suite facilities and I had to walk the length of a landing - about 7 or 8 yards - to the bathroom/WC. Strangely, this lacked a means by which the door could be locked to ensure privacy. My room also lacked a TV but the house's WiFi signal was strong enough to enable TV (and the likes of internet sites etc.) to be viewed without difficulty on my personal smartphone. Breakfast (08:30), lunch (12:30) and tea (17:30) were catered with a choice of 2 main and 2 dessert courses normally offered for lunch. Additionally, soup or sandwiches were offered to those not wanting a full meal. Strangely, it did not appear a full-time cook was employed throughout my 6-week stay (although the various cooks who provided meals certainly did more than just 'fill in').

Large rooms and staff are very helpful and caring. The downside is I think they are short-staffed as some of the help buzzers seem to be switched on for a long time without being answered. Also, the patio at the rear is covered in bird droppings and looks neglected.

We have nothing but good things to say about Beckfield Care Home, it’s staff and the care they provide for my mum. My mum is safe, happy and very well looked after.
