What others have to say

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

It's a modern building, very clean and well presented… feels more like a hotel than a care home. It's always a warm welcome when you arrive, everyone is very friendly - cleaners, receptionist, care staff - everyone is on the same page. My loved one has become very comfortable with the staff, they really made an effort to get to know her and this helps to make her feel safe, which is very reassuring for me also.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

The way the staff relate with the residents is impressive. They are alert and conscientious to the individual needs of each resident and everyone is treated with the utmost respect. The level of care is very good, they know what's going on with each and every one of the residents, and they always keep me informed about how my loved one is doing... any issues and they are on the phone.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

The staff are very kind and friendly, everyone smiles as you come in. I am there a lot so there is a lot of discussion about my loved one's daily activities, his achievements, his eating... very good communication from everyone involved in his care.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

The care is exceptional, staff are also exceptional. I feel really safe that she's in there.They go above and beyond and I'm always updated about everything 24/7.

Relative of a resident, August 2023

I find the environment to be very pleasing for my mum - she is well looked after. They have a great team of carers at the home who are compassionate and engage with my mum. The hospitality point of view is fantastic, her room and her surroundings are very well looked after and maintained. My mum has had a good experience in the home.
