My dear friend received excellent care during the last few years of her life. She was treated with great dignity during her stay there. The staff are all very helpful and became family to us all. I have no hesitation in recommending Coloma Court.

My mum had a sudden decline in November 2024 and went to hospital, she was unable to recover to be well enough to go home. She is currently in respite care at Coloma Court. They have been so welcoming to her, they really made her feel settled and at home and put our minds at rest. My mum is beautifully tended to; she is clean and well dressed, her skin is creamed and looked after, she is loving the food and activities and they try their best to encourage her (no easy task) to join in everything she can. Thank you for your care and love for mum.

Overall we are pleased with care my mother received over the past few weeks, however we provided complan because she eats so little. Normally she would go through one box a week, she went through one box in 3 weeks despite frequent requests to give the complan. All staff were very friendly and caring towards my mother.

Coloma Court is a safe and welcoming space for mum. Staff are caring and professional. I can visit at any time, no appointment needed which gives me confidence that mum is being cared for at all times. She can be a handful but staff soon got to know her ways and carry out all aspects of her care with efficiency and professionalism. Thank you Coloma.

Mum has been at Coloma Court for near a year. We have been very happy with her care. The staff are excellent and attend to mum's needs with care and understanding. Mum is always clean and smells good as is her room and bathroom. I would recommend Coloma Court to without any hesitation.

We both found the staff very friendly and helpful. My dad said he enjoyed the stay but he felt the food was not exciting but just acceptable and there was not enough choice on some occasions. The only extra improvement would be for quick staff responsiveness when needing the toilet. He would use the home again if needed.

I was very concerned how my friend would accept residential care. I am very pleased with the care and attention that the staff provide to their residents. They understand the problems and do everything to help people adjust. More to the point they also understand how this affects spouses, family and friends. I cannot fault their efforts and level of care provided. The rooms are kept clean and tidy and there is always enough staff on hand to provide more personal attention when required. The atmosphere is loving and positive with the residents treated with care and dignity.

My Mum has lived here for 2 years. I couldn’t ask for better care. All the staff are very attentive, very kind, and put my mum’s best interests first. She is very frail with many medical needs but always looks immaculately clean and comfortable. The rooms and building are spotlessly clean, and Mum has a lovely rural view from her large window. Whenever I have spoken to reception, care staff, or administration I have always found them to be very helpful, understanding, and courteous. This is a lovely care home.

Mum is content and very well looked after. The staff are caring and supportive and always cheerful. The overall atmosphere is positive with residents treated as individuals with their separate needs, likes, and dislikes.

My husband has been a resident here for 1 year and 4 weeks and in that time he has improved mentally and can converse logically although he was very confused on admission. All his needs are met by the staff and they have infinite patience. The food is excellent and the staff are endlessly patient and kind.

This is an excellent care home. My dad lived here for 15 months until the end of his life, we could not have asked for better care. All the staff are attentive, friendly and kind, and really put residents’ best interests at the centre of their work. Staff retention is very good, so my Dad got to know the carers looking after him, which is so important. He was frail with many medical needs, but always immaculately clean and comfortable. End-of-life care for him was exemplary, we are so grateful. The home is very well run, and management organise regular relatives meetings. For residents who wish to take part, there are varied activities and entertainment. The rooms and building are large, light and airy in an attractive semi-rural setting.

My father's needs are well provided for and the staff are always available to help and offer advice to me when I need it.

My mum became a resident at Coloma Court for a very short time only. All I can say is that I truly wish I had taken steps to move her there long before I did. As soon as she was settled she became at peace and sadly died 2 days later. The staff were exemplary and treated her with so much care and compassion. I truly recommend Coloma to everyone.

My sister and I are very happy with the level of care our mum receives at Coloma Court. The care staff are caring and compassionate and are always willing to reassure us about our mum. The nursing staff are excellent and will always update us on our mum's medical needs. It is great to have the digital care system in place as an added reassurance. The management are doing all that they can to make Coloma Court a 'home-from-home' for the residents. They are honest and innovative and it is great to have regular relatives meetings. We are also impressed with the number of activities that happen each week and the freedom that is given to the residents to attend if they wish. Our Mum's assessment of Coloma Court - 'I love it here'.

Coloma continues to provide a high standard of care and any day-to-day problems are dealt with immediately. During the last year there have been notable improvements in communication with relatives via the video call meetings, entertainment, menus and how meals are served in the dining rooms. Seeing management out and about on the floors has the benefit of them seeing what actually goes on. I also appreciate how much time they spend on staffing to select and train new recruits, it definitely pays off. Congratulations to all the staff on their hard work to maintain these standards.

Mum was a resident at Coloma for nearly two years and was very happy there. Mum especially loved the variety and quality of the food; the activities and all the friendly residents and staff. Her care was exemplary during her time there.

The whole team at Coloma Court are dedicated to making the resident’s time safe and happy. The carers are well trained, professional, respectful and loving. The availability of online care notes is so reassuring.

My mum has now been in Coloma Court for 16 months, the home has continued to look after my mum in a caring way and can only say that her care has continued to be first-class. She is very happy and this takes worry from me because I know that she is safe and having good food.
