What others have to say

Here are just some of the comments we’ve received from family, friends and residents at Glastonbury Court care home.

My loved one can be a bit of a handful. He's not the cooperative type, but the team members are all unwaveringly patient with him. He's treated with the same respect and kindness as everyone else, and some of the carers can have a joke with him and raise a smile. Personally, I'd like for him to participate more in activities, and they do encourage him, but I understand that he can't be forced. All in all, he actually enjoys living there... not that he would admit that to anyone!

Relative of a resident, July 2025

I've been very impressed with the entire team, from the manager down… everyone is so friendly and helpful. Whenever I've had a question or raised an issue, it's been dealt with immediately! I'm always greeted with a smile and someone will always come to give me an update about my loved one when I visit. She's in good hands; I have no concerns.

Relative of a resident, July 2025

It's a wonderful place! The team is cheerful and they genuinely care about the residents, the food is great, the home is spotlessly clean throughout and there are lots of activities for residents to take part in. It's always a pleasure walking through the door. The atmosphere is just so good, and it makes you want to get involved with things.
