Very dark and dingy. My husband was here for two weeks respite and will never be going back there! Went in to see him and he was not dressed properly, had no pull ups on only his jeans and was told he dressed himself, do they not check if they have undies on, he had someone else's pyjama top on that was two sizes too small for him. Sitting in the lounge he was kept in the quiet side as they have a quiet side and a lively side. When I asked for him to be taken to the lively side in the day I was told oh they are too busy to have another there! Would never ever recommend this place to anyone.

I was looking for a nursing home for my brother and after visits to other nursing homes, which I didn't like, I was so pleased to have found Summer Fields Care Home. I was immediately struck by the friendly atmosphere and the kindness of the staff, including management. The residents are treated with dignity and there is a calming atmosphere.

When visiting my wife, I found the staff to be consistently attentive and helpful. My wife is always clean and tidy and mainly in good spirits. Her room is always clean and tidy.

My dad has been at Summer Fields for just over a year now. It is the best place that he has been in. The staff are wonderful, my Dad says that the food is good (apparently he often has seconds), and his room is nice. I feel confident that he is being looked after and well cared for.

Mum has been treated with dignity and excellent personal care, encouraged with diet and fluids especially as due to illness she has had a lot of weight loss, staff are very welcoming and caring especially one staff member in particular. Not sure of the names of the other staff yet just getting to know them, thank you for giving myself and family peace of mind knowing she's in good hands.

My mum came to Summer Fields in late November. It has taken her a while to settle, as we expected, but know we couldn't have chosen a better home, she is so well looked after... All the staff are amazing and great with Mum and encourage her so much on a day-to-day basis. She has great fun with them all, and nothing is too much for them. All our family have been made to feel more than welcome. Summer Fields is spotless throughout. Would highly recommend it. The grounds are also lovely. Nice, quiet setting, with lovely outside space for everybody to use. Couldn't be happier. Thanks to all the staff.

Kind, caring and approachable staff at Summerfields. Dad is looked after well. I am very happy with his care. Communication is fantastic too from staff through such a difficult time for all. Very secure, so no worries about his safety.

My beautiful and loving mother has been part of the Summer Fields family for a number of years, and from the moment she arrived, she has been treated with nothing but kindness and love from all of the wonderful and amazing staff. I know that Mum has been happy, and that makes me feel at ease. Nothing seems to be any trouble for the staff in caring for Mum, and I know that she is comfortable at all times, and although her memory has deteriorated, I know in my heart that she loves all the staff, and on her behalf, I thank them all from the bottom of my heart. I have made friends with the staff; I treasure their friendship, and I will hold the love I have for them forever. The staff at Summer Fields are truly exceptional in their calling, and they know exactly what I think of them, as I tell them every time I visit Mum or call.

My mum has been living at Summerfields Care Home since January 2023. The staff have been incredibly caring of Mum and supportive of our family since day one. It was very quickly borne upon me that the home really does care about the people they are looking after. It has also been made very clear to the family that they are there to support us all, too. We are always made welcome. There is a lovely 'family feeling' to the place, which has impressed all of our family when visiting. Thank you to all of the staff for looking after Mum so well and for making our family feel so welcome. The staff go above and beyond on a daily basis, and I suspect they do not grasp how much of a positive impact they have. Thank you.

My lovely mum passed away recently, and I just want to say from the bottom of my hear - thank you to all the wonderful and amazing staff. My mum was so very happy here; they treat everyone, including families, with dignity and respect and are so professional, they really are fabulous, a wonderful group of people where nothing was ever too much trouble, and the care and attention my mum received were second to none, and the support they gave to me and my family was amazing. I would, without hesitation, recommend this care home. You all made my mum and me so happy, I have lost my lovely mum, but have gained some truly lovely friends, and I will never ever forget this; thank you, Summer Fields Care Home, for everything; you truly are beautiful people.

Our dear friend passed away this morning peacefully and was surrounded by loving and caring staff. How blessed that he was at Summer Fields. The staff were professional with a collective huge caring heart. He was treated with love and respect even after he passed. The staff are so much more than nurses and carers; they are angels quietly going about caring for our most vulnerable people. As visitors, we were treated as family, sharing our grief together. My friend was loved by all. The staff went above and beyond to make sure he was loved and respected. For that, I will always be grateful. God bless the staff at Summer Fields. I will always remember you with fondness and appreciation for loving him the way we did. They were diligent in keeping him safe and protected.

My mum had to be admitted to a care home during the 2nd lockdown in 2020. Because of Covid, I couldn’t go and visit any home due to the restrictions, so went on the recommendation of a friend whose mum had been in Summerfield. It has turned out to be the perfect choice for my mum. She is so happy, well looked after and I couldn’t ask any more from the staff who look after her. The staff are fantastic and so kind to her and always keep me informed of any issues, and if I have had any concerns, they have been dealt with promptly. They keep the residents entertained with lots of activities and karaoke that my mum seems to really enjoy. Thank you for looking after her so well. I couldn’t be more pleased I chose Summerfield for my mum.

My mother has been looked after here for over three years and treated with respect and dignity and like a member of the family. I looked at several places before we decided on Summerfields and definitely chose the best option for the care she has received.

Fantastic home. My mum is well cared for all the time, and the staff are so caring - they do so much for the residents. The home does so much to stimulate the residents with the various activities; they love it when the singer comes in, and they can have a dance and a singalong. They have pamper days where they get their hair and nails done, nostalgia and reminiscent days and arts and crafts. My mum is so happy and has lots of friends. The last few years have been hard for the residents and families, but the staff were brilliant as always. The rooms are clean and comfortable, as is the home itself. I'm so glad we chose Summer Fields as my mum's home; she has been living there for a good few years now and has always had the best care, and her needs are taken care of every day. Well done to all the staff at Summer Fields - you are all amazing.

Staff are professional and treat Mum with dignity and respect. A pleasure to see Mum content and happy. Happy environment, always clean and very welcoming. I cannot fault them. Keep us the fantastic work you do. Lovely place with happy residents and a safe environment.

The staff were always lovely, and, unprompted, they provided us, as a family, with a picnic in the gardens on my Dad’s 90th birthday! Mum really enjoyed seeing us all together. The picnic was lovely and a really kind thought. The manager was always nothing but accommodating, and called me when I had emailed him with a list of questions that I needed answering, just the usual sort of anxious questions that anyone would have in their first experience of having a relative in a care home. He addressed all my concerns and was reassuring and professional. When mum left Summerfields in October, a vase (not valuable, but precious to me, as was my grandmother’s) had gone astray in the move. A staff member on mum’s floor went above and beyond, weeks after Mum had moved out, to locate the vase – which she did! – and she took the time and trouble to keep in contact with my Dad. Such a kind thing to do, and very much appreciated by us. I commend Summerfields for the care that they provided

Our mum passed away today in this wonderful caring place. I’ll be forever thankful that the staff in this brilliant home were there in her final hours, where we couldn’t be. Thank you all - you deserve a medal.

The care my dad is receiving is fantastic. The staff are lovely and all seem to treat residents as part of their family. During the COVID lockdown staff have cared for protected residents brilliantly. Thank you all.

I would like to say a huge thank you to all the staff for making mum feel so welcome. She joined Summer Fields Care Home in June during the coronavirus and although we could not see inside the care home you could tell how much care they provide. We have always been kept up-to-date. I met up with mum in their new pod after not being able to see her for a few weeks and it was emotional and lovely. Thank you so much to everyone at Summer Fields.

I would like to say a massive thank you to all the staff at Summerfield Care Home. Mum was transferred there 2 weeks ago from the hospital. It has been hard during this Coronavirus lockdown as I couldn't view it nor enter. Mum seems to have settled in really well. The staff have been amazing and have kept me updated about mum. I visited mum in the pod yesterday and am so grateful to have seen her. She looked so well and cared for and the carers are so accomodating. From the bottom of my heart thank you for caring for her, it's amazing to know she is in safe hands.
