It was a hard decision to commit my dear mum's care to a nursing home but I couldn't have chosen better. The comfort and support that both she and my family have received from both management and staff has been superb. The surroundings are bright and cheerful and visitors are always made so welcome. Mum is so well cared for and the standard of food and activities is second to none. The staff are all so patient and kind - the atmosphere is just so warm and friendly. I now have peace of mind and no longer worry about her having a fall or forgetting her medication. Well done Avalon for providing such a lovely caring place.

My mum was admitted in April 2024 with advanced Alzheimer's. The care she receives at Avalon Nursing Home is exemplary and far beyond our expectations. There is genuine love and affection for all residents and a determination to ensure that they are treated as individuals at all times and respected as such. I can't recommend Avalon highly enough and the staff team are just amazing.

We cannot speak highly enough of the team at Avalon Nursing Home, from the management to the cleaning staff. For what is an extremely difficult time for our family, their care and kindness towards my mum and dad is outstanding. The home is always a happy place with lots going on for everyone.

My husband has settled in here really well. The staff are friendly and always happy to talk with me if needed.

My mum was in this home for a very short period of time before she passed away. All the staff went above and beyond to make my mum's last few days comfortable and contented. Even after my mum passed the support I am receiving from the management staff is absolutely unbelievable. Such kindhearted caring people without a doubt the best care home in its area.

My mum was a resident here until she died on the 3rd of April. All I can say is that every single one of the staff is incredible. They are so caring, happy and amazing. They not only looked after my mum well, they looked after me and my family well. Each resident is treated as an individual in one big happy family. I couldn't have got anywhere better to care for my mum. My thanks go out to every single member of staff, not just care staff but the ladies on reception and cooks, cleaners and the ladies that do the washing. Thank you, you're all brilliant.

Absolutely amazing care home, bright, colourful decor, staff are friendly and welcoming, lots of activities for the residents. Happy smiley residents may I add. Would definitely recommend it to anyone. Very welcoming to visitors from groups, singers, and dancers. Lovely large garden area for the residents. Music playing in some areas. Very clean and a beautiful mural in the dining room.

I can't thank Avalon enough for the care they are giving my mother-in-law. She has advanced Alzheimer's and is quite a handful in many ways. All of the staff are kind, thoughtful and patient with her. She can't communicate her needs or understand either but everything necessary for her daily care is done with a smile. As relatives we feel totally at ease leaving her in Avalon's care and are always kept informed of everything that happens with her. The carers go above and beyond to make her happy even taking her out in a wheelchair for a change of scenery. Thank you Avalon for giving us peace of mind.

My husband, unfortunately, only spent nine weeks at Avalon Nursing Home before he passed away unexpectedly in July. I cannot praise the staff at Avalon highly enough for the care and love they showed to him, to me and to my family. Nothing was too much for them. It meant those last nine weeks I was able to spend quality time with him as his wife and not his carer. These carers do not get enough praise for the fantastic service they give.

We moved my mother to Avalon as her care needs were increasing. The managers and staff were excellent throughout from assessing her needs prior to entry through to supporting her passing with care and dignity. Toward the end Mum's behaviour became very challenging and this was mitigated by the trusted relationships that her carers had built with her. When first arriving at Avalon it was evident that the building and location were less attractive than the many other care homes we visited. However, from the point at which when we entered the building, we witnessed the genuine care and attention provided to patients and, as proved correct, it was a great choice for Mum. I would have no hesitation in recommending Avalon Care Home.

The home is a very happy place, the staff are excellent and always greet you with a smile. The reception staff are always ready to help you whether you're going in the home or going home. Nothing is too much trouble. Keep up the good work. Love to you all.

I cannot praise the staff enough, they are all so caring and compassionate to my mother who is bed bound.

My partner has been at Avalon for two months. During this time, the staff have shown nothing but love and support for her, The food is good, her room is adequate and kept clean. The activities regime is great with a lot of thought going into keeping everybody happy. The nursing staff are very good.

Dad has been a resident of this care home since July 2022. We have received such care and compassion from all the staff, nursing, caring and office staff. So helpful, nothing is too much trouble.

Mum is very well cared for. Her room, albeit relatively small, is clean and warm with a TV and private bathroom. The staff are very loving and caring.
08 September 2022
My husband was welcomed warmly and lots of staff introduced themselves to us explaining their roles. My husband's needs were quickly assessed and he was asked about his likes and dislikes relating to food activities and interests. Carers are kind and helpful. The nurses really know their stuff and the Admin staff are very efficient and a key point of contact for getting 'Housekeeping' issues sorted out. I am happy that my husband is in safe hands and will be properly cared for.

Very happy with my 94-year-old father's level of care at Avalon, his well-being is very happy and content here. He enjoys the company of all the staff who are very professional and have a personal touch and we can see how content he is at Avalon, thank you very much to all the staff.

Avalon Nursing Home has been my mum's home for several years now. She has been looked after by the staff who are extremely caring and patient and attend to all her needs to ensure she is healthy and happy. The staff have always been very friendly and helpful to support the family when needed and have always kept the family up to date with what is happening. The family are very grateful to all the staff for keeping Mum safe and happy when we weren't able to see her due to Covid.
