Ayton House is a special place. Being brand new and purpose built, the facilities are of course excellent, but it is the qualities of the special people there that elvates it. Not just my father but our whole family have been embraced and cared for with professionalism, courtesy, respect and extreme kindness. We were so supported in navigating the practical and emotional course of Dad's changing needs during his stay. We were always kept informed and given so much helpful information. We were also enabled to relinquish the roles of carers to spend precious time just as family, enjoying the day to day life and activities. Because of the exceptional tender loving care Dad was receiving, we could come away each day with confidence, as were leaving him with those who became extended family. Our experience has been that Ayton House is full of people who care about why they are there, who go above and beyond the call of duty, with every department contributing. The result is excellence and we are very grateful.

Ayton House is a lovely home. All of the décor is to a high standard and tastefully and thoughtfully done. The corridors are like an art gallery with pictures that would be of interest and stimulate memories for residents. There are many social areas which provide spaces to be enjoyed privately with visitors, or communally. The staff are professional, friendly, caring and respectful. We have been very impressed with Ayton and are glad that Father-in-law is able to be safe, comfortable and happy in his new home.

My 99 year old father has recently moved into Ayton house after looking after himself at home. It is a very stressful time to move into a care home. All the staff at Ayton house have been so welcoming and kind to my father. As a result he is settling in very well. I can thoroughly recommend Ayton house. On top of that the restaurant is fantastic with a very high quality menu.

My elderly father decided to move into Ayton House to recover from the flu, which had required hospitalisation. Initially meant as a trial, he has remained in Aython House as he recognises that although he could manage at home with support, having all his meals prepared, and all his laundry done for him was a relief. Now we know he is always safe, as staff check on him hourly, as before Ayton, we had to contact him daily. He is enjoying his room, especially the patio outside his room, which he can sit in every sunny morning to read his newspapers, which are delivered daily. He is still able to enjoy watching cycling and skiing via his Skybox. His twice daily ritual of walking to the cafe to get an espresso coffee and the weekly group exercises is giving him a new lease of life by rebuilding his strength and fitness. The facilities at Ayton House are impressive, with multiple smaller dining rooms and lounges in each section and large common areas for group activities.

My father has been at Ayton House for 2 1/2 months now and was one of the first residents. It was a big change for him and we were nervous how he would settle in but overall we're happy that he's settled in well. The main thing is that he's well looked after and is happy and at Ayton House, he is.

Can't praise Ayton House enough. Facilities, staff, atmosphere, level of care and attention to detail are all exemplary. My mother was not so keen on going into a care home but Ayton House went out of their way to facilitate this difficult move and Mum is now well settled and very happy.

Excellent facility more like a luxury hotel than a care home. Have nothing but praise for the staff, all of whom are friendly, caring and professional. Mum has settled down, made friends and feels safe and sound there. Would highly recommend Ayton House to anyone looking for a care home.

In our search for a care home for my mother, we looked for a place that would provide her with a safe, comfortable and secure environment, where she would be treated with dignity and respect and where the level of care and support was of a high standard. In all these respects, Ayton House easily meets with our criteria. In addition, the cleanliness of her new home and the quality of food are of a very high standard and many activities are provided to keep all the residents engaged and entertained. Finally, we have found the staff and management to be very understanding and supportive of many of the areas where we needed advice. To sum up, we are very happy for my mother to be a resident of Ayton House because we believe that she is receiving the best care possible. Well done to all.

I live a long way away from my aunt and wouldn't have felt able to leave her if we hadn't found Ayton House with it's excellent care and lovely environment when she suddenly needed it. The atmosphere is more like that of a hotel, there are even fabric napkins in the dining room! The facilities are well thought through and the activities are well planned and varied. The personal care has been amazing and my aunt is gaining in strength and confidence all the time thanks to the devoted staff. The communication is excellent. We can see what my aunt has been doing by checking the app and Ayton House calls me with any concerns.

27/02/2025 We have had a fabulous afternoon at Ayton House Care Home this afternoon for their Grand Opening. As always the staff have been amazing and put on a wonderful show. I cannot recommend this home enough. My mother has been here for 2 months and is receiving the best of care. Thank you so much

Dad has been made very welcome by the friendly staff. The facilities are tastefully designed, it's like a 5-star hotel. He likes that he is able to have his meals at times that suit him if he's not feeling hungry at their usual mealtimes.

The first week is overwhelming with questions, questions, questions! Necessary but too many all at once. The wash basin in the shower room is ridiculously small. Security is excellent but feels more like a prison. Overall atmosphere is warm, welcoming and caring. The food is excellent, made to suit individual tastes and needs.

Mum has become a new woman since moving into Ayton House, happy, smiling, giggling even. She loves it, especially the way the staff include her in daily chores which makes her feel useful. We are very impressed with the number and range of activities Mum gets involved with and with the level of care and attention paid to her. It is early days as we try to convert 'Respite' into a permanent residency but we could not have found a nicer place for her to go at short notice and we hope she is able to stay for a long time.

We have been nothing short of completely impressed with everything and everyone at Ayton House, it is such a warm and friendly home, with such hospitality and kindness. It is always a hard decision to move a family member into a care home but this transition has been so easy. Well done to all.

Everyone has been very kind and helpful. The overall ambience of Ayton House is warm and welcoming. The decor, facilities and outdoor spaces have been thought through. Mum seems to be settling in well and enjoying the daily activities.

My mother moved to Ayton House as it opened. We chose it for its position, facilities and positive feedback on meeting the staff. We have not been disappointed. The rooms and facilities are excellent. Great food - my mother is not easy to please and she has had a personalised menu. Most importantly there is a widespread feeling of professionalism with very friendly staff. My Mother has already perked up with the attention she has received and the social/contact events that she has attended and she is obviously already stimulated. A great start to her new home where she feels safe.
