A super place having supported my wife with her mother. The manager was so helpful and took personal care of advising and then settling the mother in law in. All staff are lovely and caring. Lots of activities to do. Nice surroundings. We visited 12+ care homes and this was the best. Highly recommended.

My mother aged 95 was due for a spell of respite care in Gracewell of Hove in late August and September, but sustained a minor fall on 4 August in her sheltered flat nearby. Gracewell were extremely responsive to my request for help on 5 August and agreed to take her in as a resident immediately.

I have been so impressed with Gracewell in Hove. I have visited a few care homes and have often found them lacking in things. Gracewell in my eyes is how I would wish all care homes to be like. All the staff seem to really care and there is a bright and loving atmosphere through the building. They go the extra mile.

This is the only nursing home in which I have been a resident but the ones which I have visited, this seems the best. It is attractively furnished with pleasant bedrooms. The nursing staff are excellent, taking trouble to provide that extra help. I could not take much interest in the food but it seemed good and varied with a menu providing main courses and snack as alternatives.

This is an excellent care home with excellent staff, who do a great job in caring. Perhaps more rehabilitation programmes could be introduced otherwise very happy.
