Reviews for Tixover House Care Home

"I live in America and needed somewhere I could trust to look after my mother as I can only visit once every 3 months. Every time I visit she tells me how happy she is to be living there and how I and the staff are. The staff often make her laugh and cheer her up. When I am there she checked on at least once an hour and often more. The staff are very good about keeping me up to date on her medical health by email and the results of all GP visits which is reassuring."

"This is only the second time I have visited the home to visit my friend. We were made very welcome by the staff. The atmosphere of the home is peaceful and friendly. Home from home. Refreshments which were excellent provided as well."

"I have lived in one of the assisted living bungalows at Tixover Grange for 10 and a half years. During this time I have had a very good relationship with the care home, where I have been made welcome at events, also helping when I could with the residents: baking, card making and chatting with them. You always get a friendly reception and a cuppa with biscuits or cake!"

"A faultless experience from start to finish, my mother had a week of respite here. Her first time. The appraisal at home was fantastic and I left Mum with absolutely no qualms. I had been wary of embarking on this journey but I was reassured at every stage and Mum left the care home saying she had had a lovely stay and she thought it had done her good. Thank you to everyone involved. You are brilliant."

"My dad has been a resident since Dec 2022, his needs have changed since he moved into Tixover. The management and team have supported us all and explained perfectly the additional care our dad needs. More recently they have been extra supportive and patient which has been a comfort. He's doing well and we know he is cared for and looked after day and night. He continues to be involved in activities and feels part of the Tixover family."

"Our dear friend came to Tixover House straight from the hospital for his final months. Being completely aware, our friend was able to acknowledge and appreciate the kindness and care shown to him. He often stated how safe and comfortable he felt and could not be anywhere better. From our point of view visiting Tixover numerous times, its genuine, welcoming, professional, understanding, experienced staff and management are outstanding in the care, welfare and happiness of a loved one. It is the quality of staff and leadership that makes success."

"Invited to King Charles III celebration held at Tixover House Care Home. Wonderful event of afternoon tea with residents and staff and planting of a tree in their glorious surroundings. Listened to a fabulous singer while partaking in a substantial quality spread of sandwiches, savouries and a wide variety of cakes with copious amounts of tea. Thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon as I am sure the residents did. The staff were superb with making us most welcome while looking after all. They obviously care very much for their residents. Just like to thank all the staff there for a wonderful afternoon and for making us most welcome."

"My mum moved to Tixover House a week or so ago.. my family and I are so very happy. The staff are all amazing they genuinely care for the residents. Staff even come in to see the residents on their days off. The care home is set in wonderful country side and everyone is made to feel welcome. It feels like one big happy family. It is spotlessly clean thanks to the house care assistants. The food is exceptional. There are daily activities and you can sit and have a chat with the residents in the main lounge."

"We are finding Tixover House Care Home an ideal place for my aunt. She is being looked after very well, clean, looking tidy, her room is always looked after, and her laundry done and put away. The staff pop in and ask if she's comfortable and we love that we can make ourselves a cup of tea and help ourselves to a scone or cake. The management and staff are all very approachable and helpful. Everything is done with a smile."

"Excellent care provided with absolute detail. My mother has dementia and is always unsettled with strangers. However, the professionalism, empathy, experience and understanding of the staff made Mum feel very settled. Not once did they have to contact me for help. Very friendly place located in a beautiful, rural surrounding. I feel so comfortable that it was almost like an extension of our home."

"My sister was a resident at Barchester Tixover Care Home for 6 years before she passed away in July and lived in both residential and Memory Lane. Her care under the manager, and her team of nurses and carers was exceptional. The home is set in beautiful grounds overlooking fields with sheep making it a lovely area for walking/sitting and a peaceful atmosphere. There is also good parking and easy access. Unlike many care homes I looked at, Memory Lane is full of colour, activities, sensory aids and positivity from the carers. Great attention is paid to assessing and supplying what is best for each individual resident, whether they are in residential or Memory Lane. There is genuine care, compassion and respect by both carers and nursing staff. I was kept up to date with any changes or requirements by excellent communication from the home and always felt 100% confident my sister was in the best hands. It is definitely a home where you know your loved one comes first."

"I had been looking after my husband for the last 2 years. He had mobility problems and memory loss. Recently he was diagnosed with vascular dementia. He had begun to fall so needed 24-hour care. One morning after a sleepless night I realised I could not cope. My plan was a break for me. The manager at Tixover House came to assess him and he went in that day. The staff were wonderful and always made him smile, even up to his final days."

"From my first visit, to see if Barchester Tixover House Care Home was suitable for Mum, I was impressed. Apart from the luxurious "home from home" furnishings, it was the staff who impressed me. I'm greeted by name when I visit which is impressive but more importantly, find that my mum is clean, well looked after and her needs are met. I never wanted to have to put my mum in a home - it's heartbreaking but feel I have found the right one."

"The care home provided exceptional support for my mother with Lewy body dementia. The staff were compassionate, understanding and provided personalised care, ensuring her comfort and well-being. They supported her appropriately for three and half years, during this time, her health deteriorated and they adjusted her care accordingly. Highly recommended."
