I have visited a friend at Selwood several times now and it's obvious that she is very well looked after . It's a beautiful home and the staff are so friendly and helpful . She enjoys all the activity days whether they are at the home or out and about . I will definitely be recommending Selwood in the future

Absolute gem of a find. Mother is happy, content and we'll cared for, all her needs have been met. All the staff seem very friendly and helpful. Although mother does not join in activities she hears them going on in the background and it's uplifting for her. So pleased we can leave mother in safe hands.

The most important thing is that my wife (with dementia) has settled in well, is content, as happy as can be hoped for, and is well looked after. Selwood is modern, well laid-out, clean, food appears good. The staff are welcoming, caring, and interested in the residents. A possible thing that could be improved is the activities for dementia residents - an additional activities coordinator would be beneficial. It's more expensive than some, but I guess you get what you pay for. Overall, I'm very happy with Selwood.

We had been looking for a suitable home for respite and possible long-term care for my mother following some recent health issues. She has been a resident there for four weeks now, and we now expect her to remain there indefinitely. Selwood is truly wonderful - I am always truly bowled over each time I visit. The standards of accommodation, food, care and general vibe to the place are all first class - I always leave with a smile on my face. I wanted to find somewhere really nice for my mum to recover and settle into a new r... read more

My husband has been a Dementia/Parkinson's resident for approximately 16 weeks. He settled quite well and at the moment seems quite happy. The staff are all so lovely and the care given is very good. The food is nice, but I think a bit more plain cooking would be beneficial, especially for the older generation. Sometimes the food is on top of other food, perhaps if it was put on the plate so the resident could see what it is might be better. I can only speak for my hubby, he would like to see what he is eating. It's only on ... read more

From arrival the reception area is very welcoming, the rooms are comfortably equipped, and overall the facilities are more than adequate, including a Spar and hairdresser, in fact, all fittings, and furnishings throughout are in excellent condition. More importantly, the staff are all friendly and helpful and more than capable. Couldn't wish for a more reassuring and professional home for my loved one. Kind regards.

The staff are extremely helpful and diligent to my Father's needs. They are very patient and professional when dealing with him and also my elderly Mother when I bring her to visit Dad. The room is always very clean and my Dad whilst suffering from dementia does say that when a member of staff comes into the room they are very nice. A very good care home and I know they will look after Dad. It gives Mum and I peace of mind.

Fantastic home. A particular member of staff helped us secure a place here for Mum. We thought it was like a 5-star hotel. All the staff are so friendly and helpful and Mum is gradually settling in. The staff member who does the activities is great and helps encourage Mum on the trips. Other staff do a fantastic job on her hair and nails. So glad we chose Welwood House Care Home.

Since her arrival, my mother, who suffers from mid-stage Alzheimer's, has received nothing but excellent care from the wonderful staff at Selwood House. They are incredibly kind, cheerful, endlessly patient and thoroughly professional. The environment is very comfortable and well-designed, with beautiful gardens. My mother enjoys regular access to these gardens and daily stimulating, fun activities are organised and thoughtfully tailored to the abilities of the group. My mother particularly enjoys the quizzes and singing ses... read more
