We had to find out mum emergency respite due to unforeseen circumstances. Manager Debbie came out the same day to assess and explain what Hollybank had to offer. Mum went in reluctantly but with the support and kindness of the staff she settled well, nothing was too much trouble and as a family we think they are all truly amazing. In the event that long term placement was needed, Hollybank would be our first call.

Our mum is is a resident in Hollybank Residential care Home and we couldn't be any happier and are so glad that we found this home. All care staff are so caring and loving to mum which seems to come naturally to them and means a lot to us knowing she is happy and safe. The owner and all the office staff are very obliging and readily sort out any questions we may have without any hesitation.

We are so happy that we found Hollybank Residential Home for Mum, she is very happy there and loves all of the carers. All her anxiety of living in on her own has gone and everything is so much better now, such a great home.

My Auntie was a resident at Hollybank for 6 years, the care they give is second to none. A caring family run home, I was able to relax knowing that my Auntie was in safe hands.

My mother was a resident at Hollybank for 20 months. During that time my family felt she was well cared for by staff. Everything at the home is quite satisfactory. After viewing other homes in the area I wouldn't fail to recommend the home. The home is split into three houses each with its own individual care priorities. The place is clean and well cared for and doesn't smell unpleasant like some we visited. It offers beautiful surroundings and well cared for gardens which offer a lovely peaceful place to sit in the summer and warm days.

My mother has been a resident at Hollybank Care Home in Shotton for nearly 2 years, she is extremely happy. The management and staff are EXCELLENT. I feel that she is totally safe and well cared for. The carers and management staff are very interactive and if she is unwell they communicate very well and are quick to obtain medical advice when needed. I feel this is an extremely well-run home, with a very homely feel and would highly recommend it.
