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.

The level of care and kindess demonstrated by your team has been remarkable. From the moment she arrived at Glastonbury Court, we were consistently impressed by the personalised attention and genuine warmth shown to her.

Relative of a resident, July 2024

It’s always clean, always bright, never any unpleasant smells. It feels warm and friendly, and information boards and pictures are updated frequently so visitors can see what has been going on. And my loved one keeps telling me how good the food is… there is a good variety, always well-presented... she's putting on weight.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

Our loved one has made excellent progress in terms of her physical health and general wellbeing since moving into the home... they have been able to respond to all of our concerns and they’ve dealt with it quickly and professionally. Things are in place for our loved one's safety and they support her to spend quality time with her husband. They have adapted their style of communication to suit her personality and they always treat her with the utmost respect and dignity.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

The staff are very helpful and friendly, I'm always made to feel welcome when I visit… they are always happy to have a chat and let me know what is going on with my loved one. They cater for his every need really, I have no concerns at all about the care he receives.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

To all the staff at Glastonbury Court, thank you for the loving care and affection you gave to my husband and I during his short stay with you. Everyone helped me to ensure his journey for us both was as comfortable and peaceful as possible.
