A lovely care home where my father is happy & looked after so well with caring & attentive staff in a very homely environment. He has improved so much since moving there in January'26 such a comfort to his family to know he is being looked after well with dignity and kindness. Enjoying wonderful food in a lovely private room looking out to beautiful grounds in a very peaceful setting.

A really friendly atmosphere of an excellent country hotel. The rooms are pleasantly arranged, either looking out over the flowers and garden.

After a few hospital stays, my Mother moved to Merlewood for respite care. All of the staff have been friendly, enthusiastic and welcoming, the food is great - with the welcome option of smaller portions. There's a varied schedule of activities and outings. As a frequent visitor I feel well informed. There are lovely gardens surrounding the building and when the weather is warm enough we often borrow a wheelchair for a trip outside.

Excellent care home with brilliant caring staff. Every member of the team is exceptional. When Mum moved in she quickly settled and after just a short time referred to Merlewood as home. Whenever we visit we too are made to feel welcome and nothing is too much for the staff. Mum has had her ups and downs and the staff have liaised with outside agencies to ensure that her excellent care has continued.

I was at Merlewood for 3 weeks after being in hospital. I found the staff and physio etc very helpful for condition I was in, and was able to return home back on my feet after encouragement and physio.

Having looked at more than 10 care homes, I chose Merlewood for my mother. Best decision I could have made. The accommodation was lovely, clean and more than adequate. All the staff were polite, caring and made my mum feel at home. She was so well looked after, which took a lot of pressure off me. I would highly recommend Merlewood to anyone considering care for their elderly family members, out of ten.

I would like to say how happy we are with the care and support given to mum and us from all the staff. We receive a friendly welcome each visit, and all the different teams are always happy to help. We are very pleased with all aspects of mums care, especially with the transition to nursing care, the staff explained everything and we can see how settled she is. Thank you Merlewood.

From when my mother first went to Merlewood until she passed away, she was looked after very well. The staff were very approachable and helpful, and always kept me up to date with anything to do with my mother, which I was very grateful for. Many thanks to all the staff at Merlewood.
