"Amazing place, feels more like a hotel than a home."

"Llys-y-Tywysog has been the home of my mother-in-law since November last year, having moved from a council-run care home for rehabilitation following a stay in the hospital due to a fall, in the hope of her returning home. However, her mobility and risk of falls meant this could not happen. We chose Llys-y-Tywysog because of its high reviews and being so close for us to visit. The transition has not been an easy one due to the changing needs of my mother-in-law, with the result that she is now bedbound and on a pureed diet. The staff have worked consistently hard to manage her difficulties in a very safe and clean environment. My mother-in-law is very nervous about being hoisted but the staff encourage her to leave her room when they feel it's beneficial, to join the dining room for lunch and the concerts that they have. The activities shown on the weekly programme are fantastic for many of the residents. The homes open visiting is extremely advantageous. We celebrated her 95th birthday in the upstairs lounge which was very special and those memories will be held for years to come."

"There is room for improvement in some areas but overall facilities, care, kindness and well-being for residents are acceptable. All members of staff are professional in their approach and understanding of residents' needs. On occasion, they are understaffed and pushed to the limit but still provide a good service. My main opinion for improvement would be more staff on each shift."

"Very good. Came for respite after a hip replacement but have now decided to stay here and sell my flat. Excellent care which I so badly need, day and night. Very good standard of food, plenty of choices. The activities organised are very good, quizzes, music, games and physical activities. Various visits organised, I have been on two in my first three months here."

"Very good service starting from the home visit. Everything was explained in great detail, found the manager very helpful with things relating to outside of the care home. The staff are very pleasant and hardworking. Mam has settled down very well and it's quite nice to know she is in safe hands and the cakes are lovely."

"Very friendly staff, great activities, food is of a high standard and a good choice is always available. Management and staff are always helpful with any queries etc. Residents are always treated with dignity and they have great support from the staff. All residents have a smile on their faces whenever I visit and that tells me it's a very happy place."

"Following 2 major operations and a fall, I decided to go to Llys-y-Twysog for respite care. I loved it so much that I extended my stay by 8 days. The staff are amazing and really go the extra mile to take care of you. The food is excellent and the chef made sure that any dietary requirements were met. If there was something I didn't particularly like, he would offer an alternative."

"It was the first time in respite for my father, he has been very happy and settled in very good and has enjoyed his stay at Barchester Llys-y-Tywysog.

"My sister and brother-in-law have been living here for the past 5 months and I couldn't praise this care home enough. Staff are very caring and any problems can be discussed, no problems. The staff are amazing from the manager to all nursing and care staff. It has been the best decision for both of them and they are very happy living here which gives the rest of the family peace of mind."

"My mother was staying with you for respite care over two weeks in November 2023. She was a little more than unsure of going prior to arrival but due to the reception and warmth of care she received from all the staff at Llys-y-Tywysog and the standards in all areas, she left grieving at the fact she was and has utterly missed you all since and requested to return. Thank you so much for it all!"

"My mum came to Barchester Llys-y-Tywysog for respite care. The care she has received has been outstanding. Mum was taken ill while at the home and all the staff looked after her with dignity and compassion. They also cared for me to and reassured me. I cannot thank the staff enough. Mum's getting better thankfully. Mum was very nervous before she arrived at the home but soon she settled in and made friends. She will definitely be happy to visit again. Thank you."

"During a very trying time, the management and staff of Barchester Llys-y-Tywysog have been amazing. The care and support they have provided to not only my mother but me as well has been exceptional. The facilities have been wonderful and the place is amazing. So, thank you all for the wonderful service you are providing."

"Getting Dad transferred from hospital to the home was not without its issues. All caused by the incompetency of the staff at hospital and their "ignorance" of social and healthcare differences (complaint regarding such ongoing). The management and staff at the home gave excellent support to both Mum (also a resident) and Dad. They also supported me during this time and the transition. Dad has settled well. The care is exceptional. Staff and management are approachable, professional and go above and beyond. The home provides a stimulating range of activities and care. Excellent."

"My mother originally came for some respite care which then changed to possible permanent care. The support from the staff and management team has been excellent. They have supported me in dealing with all healthcare professionals through what has been a very stressful and emotional time. The team always go above and beyond to support my mother and me. I would recommend this home, as it is outstanding."
