What Families Are Saying

“We certainly never saw that level of care in any of the other homes we visited and that’s what makes Foxhunters the special place it is.”

When Rachel and Mike Berry discussed getting married, Rachel insisted this would only ever happen if her mum Ruth Ogden could be present to witness it.

As Ruth is sadly living with Alzheimer’s disease, it would have been impossible for her to attend the registry office to see the couple tie the knot, so Rachel and Mike decided to bring the wedding to her.

What Families Are Saying

★★★★★
"Foxhunters is an outstanding home. The staff are so kind and obliging and the whole place is absolutely lovely. The residents are very well cared for and treated with the utmost respect and dignity. My aunt is very happy at Foxhunters and my husband and I could not contemplate there being a more caring and considerate place to spend her remaining years."

Niece of Resident

Are you really all inclusive are there any extras?

At our homes, everything is included for complete peace of mind. From freshly prepared meals, drinks at the bar and your morning paper to a full programme of activities, entertainment and trips out to local attractions, it’s all part of one fixed, all-inclusive cost. With no surprise bills or added extras, residents can simply relax and enjoy a worry-free lifestyle filled with comfort, companionship and choice.

What happens if my family member's health deteriorates?

Our homes are designed to be a true home for life , so if care needs change, there’s no need to move. Residents can seamlessly transition from residential to nursing care, with dedicated dementia care and highly skilled, compassionate staff providing continuity, comfort and complete peace of mind.

Is the food fresh and is there choice?

Our award-winning in-house chefs prepare fresh, home-cooked meals every day, with a new menu daily to keep dining exciting and varied. For added choice, our Something Different menu is always available and we cater for all tastes and dietary requirements, ensuring every meal is delicious, nutritious and made with care.

How is care personalised for each individual?

Every new lady or gentleman undergoes a thorough assessment by our experienced care team to understand their physical, emotional and social needs. From this, a bespoke care plan is created in consultation with them and their family. Care plans are regularly reviewed and adapted to ensure our ladies and gentlemen receive the most appropriate support as their needs change.

What activities are there?

Our homes offer a vibrant and varied activities programme, with two engaging activities every day to suit all interests: from flower arranging, arts and crafts, quizzes and games to guided tours and live entertainment. Residents also enjoy regular trips out in our minibus to explore the local area, as well as special annual events like our much-loved Virtual Cruise Week. We’re always creating new experiences too, this year, our residents even published a book celebrating their favourite songs, reflecting the creativity and community spirit at the heart of our homes.
