What others have to say

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

I just wanted to thank you for helping us with Joy and to say how very much it was appreciated. After a couple of days to orientate herself there was absolutely no doubt that she thoroughly enjoyed her time with you and started to make some good friendships. The staff were faultless and could not have been more caring, friendly and thoughtful.

Relative of a resident, October 2024

What a great Home. My father is so happy hear. Every need is taken care of and the staff are so kind, attentive, and supportive.

Loved one of a resident, September 2024

The home is always introducing new activities, and they try to be inclusive of residents with alternative care needs.Some days some residents don't want to participate but the staff are always gently encouraging them to engage and get involved.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

The staff are genuinely very caring! They treat my loved one as an individual and they have learned very quickly what she likes and doesn't like and how to get along with her. They have the patience of saints really.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

I feel like it is my home too. The staff are so kind and welcoming, and they take time for me as well as my relative, which means a lot… they always listen and try their best to help with any situation.
