If all care homes were like this the world would be a much better place. Everything has been better than I could believe possible. The staff and management have, without exception, been friendly, caring and professional and have always gone the extra mile to do the best for my mother-in-law and her visitors.

I cannot express our thanks and gratefulness to each and every member of MHA The Homestead, Carterton. The most professional, caring, hardworking team who prioritise the health and happiness of every resident. Mum's carers treat her with respect and love and we are so lucky to have had Mum accepted here as a resident. The team leaders and the general manager are always approachable, knowledgeable, welcoming and kind. The catering staff have been wonderful. The facility is always spotless, and the ambience is magical. Thank you to everyone at The Homestead.

The care for my mum has been exceptional. Outstanding in every respect. All staff have been superb without exception, too many to mention, but all so important to us.

Every single moment spent in The Homestead has been just magical. There is no task too big or too small for the staff to ensure my grandmother's stay. Simply the best care home with world-class management and staff. I will forever be grateful for all they have done for my nan and her family.

The staff have been completely supportive and helpful throughout, I would say 'outstanding'. A very caring and understanding approach to the family during this difficult time.

I moved my brother 3 years ago, it was the best thing I ever did. He has put on weight and can now hold a conversation. I cannot express how grateful I am for the care and attention that all the staff give. I'm always contacted if there is anything they are concerned about. We can visit at any time and are allowed to take him out on days out. All the staff are friendly and very approachable. There is always something going on for the residents whether it be days out or other social events. I can definitely recommend this home.

The Homestead is an excellent care home, the staff are outstanding and it is spotless. It is run in a fantastic manner like a cruise ship. One staff member in particular has the skills to work at Buckingham Palace, it is so sparkling thank you, it gives me comfort to know it is so clean. All the staff get a 5 star from me, they support both my parents and myself. The manager is alert and thorough, all his staff are switched on. The food is made freshly every day, it is nutritional. It is a happy place, all the staff are friendly l thank you so much for taking care of my beloved parents.

My mother is very happy at the Homestead and the staff are amazing. They go above and beyond. Recently my mother had her 90th birthday and the staff made sure she and the family had a wonderful day. She is well looked after and the communication between the Homestead and myself, her son, is excellent.

The Homestead is a wonderful place for my Father to live out his last few years. They are caring, and respectful and work so hard to keep him stimulated by laying on all sorts of activities. He is warm, well-fed fed, and well-looked after with regular visits from doctors and other medical support people. A particular staff member is incredible and a great leader and I have never had a single issue in over 2 years. Keep up the good work guys.

Great care for all residents. You can speak to the staff easily about any concerns and they keep in touch to tell us about any issues with Dad. Excellent care. Very pleased with how Dad has settled into this care home because they interact with him so well that he's very happy too.

My mother has been at The Homestead since September 2019 and has received excellent care there. The staff constantly engages with residents, there are many activities, and they demonstrate kindness and understanding.

My Grandmas had a lovely festive and birthday period with one member of staff painting her nails and cutting her hair ready to look glam for Christmas. It's always a lovely warm welcome and they even did her a cake again for her birthday this year. Thank you to the team!

I always get a warm welcome whenever I come to visit my granny, she is always clean and happy when i see her. She always says how nice and helpful everyone that works there is to her. I couldn't be more happy with the standards they have for not only my granny but for us visiting too! Can't thank everyone there enough for the work they put in.

My mum has been at The Homestead since February 2024 where she has gone from bedbound at home, refusing to eat, drink and interact, to someone who is sitting with the other residents, eating, drinking and interacting. What a transformation and all down to the wonderful staff, from the top down at The Homestead. Thank you so very much.

I have found this home to be exceptional and all visitors to see my mother have been impressed with this establishment and more importantly the staff. The staff are particularly caring and can only think that the recruitment and retention is high on the management agenda to maintain these standards. Well done, an example to many. Great location for my mother and father-in-law.

Mum has been a resident since March 2023 and I can only be impressed by the care and attention Mum has received, which I know isn't always the case in care home environments. The staff have been excellent, caring and patient with Mum and us family members. 10/10. Thank you.

The welcome at The Homestead was excellent. The team have made us feel most welcome. We feel we can ask anything at any time and the answer given is complete and considerate. Understanding each individual's circumstances is important to the care team and they have taken the time to meet, enquire and understand my father.

Mum has been in residency at The Homestead since 2019. I have always been satisfied with her care with no concerns. I am always notified with information and updates around Mum's health and well-being. I am happy with the relationships I have with management and staff members. My family members are more than happy with Mum's care. I am very sure that Mum is comfortable and happy in her residency. Thank you to all.

The whole time my husband has been in Homestead the experience has been wonderful. The staff are all so helpful, not only to him but to me and the family as well. His care could not be better really and they go out of their way to make his life the best it can be. Any difficulties that occur seem to be dealt with quickly and efficiently. We are all happy with his care.
