From the moment we walked through the doors, we were so nervous about putting our dad, Tony, into a nursing home. It’s one of the hardest decisions we’ve ever had to make, but from the very beginning every single member of staff put our minds at ease and reassured us. The love, care and kindness you showed Dad every single day is something we’ll never forget. You treated Tony with so much dignity, respect and compassion. Every single nurse and care assistant worked so incredibly hard, and no matter how busy you all were, you always made time for Dad and for us as a family. We honestly can’t thank you enough. Looking back, choosing this nursing home for Dad was one of the best decisions we ever made. Knowing Tony was surrounded by such genuine, caring people gave us so much comfort and reassurance. It feels strange to say, but we’re really going to miss coming to visit. The home became such a big part of our lives, and you all became part of our family too. Thank you for everything you did for our Dad. We’ll never forget your kindness and the love you showed Tony. You’ll always hold a special place in our hearts.Posted on Google![]()

Dear Marion House Team, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to everyone at Marion House for the exceptional care, kindness, and compassion you showed our beautiful mom Joan room 22 during the final week of her life. From the moment mom arrived, you treated her with dignity, respect, and genuine warmth. Knowing she was surrounded by such caring people brought great comfort to me and my twin sister during an incredibly difficult time. Your support extended beyond Mum’s care—you were there for us too, offering reassurance, kindness, and understanding when we needed it most. Please pass on our sincere gratitude to Jay (James), Becky, Richard, Nicola, and all the staff who cared for Mum in Room 22. You made a lasting difference to our family, and we will never forget the compassion you showed us. Thank you for helping Mum spend her final days in comfort and with dignity. We will always be grateful for everything you did. With heartfelt thanks, Sammie and Andie Mom, we miss you more than words can express. We miss your smile, your voice, your hugs, and your presence. Thank you for everything you did for us and for the love you gave so freely. You will always be our mom, our queen, and now our angel and our greatest blessing. Forever loved. Forever missed. Forever in our hearts. Your daughters.Posted on Google![]()

Both me and my twin only found out 4 weeks ago our mom had cancer. This was a very tough time for us. As soon as my mom was transferred to Marian house we knew we chose the right place, Becky was absolutely amazing from the start and all the way through to the end, and Jay (James) omg my mom loved him and so did we. Not only did we lose our mom but it felt like we were losing the little family we had build in the 1 week she was there. 100% recommend this care/nursing home to any. They didn’t just look after our mom but also us, every staff member was so kind and caring to all of us. Thank you again for keeping our mom safe and out of pain. Andrea and Samantha (Joan room 22) we will be forever grateful. You are all a credit to Marian house and your boss should be proud of every single one of you, cleaners, cooks, office staff, nurses, caregivers everyone at the Walmley residence. Thank you.Posted on Google![]()

This nursing home is outstanding. From entering the front door to leaving it you are greeted with warmth and cheer. Our Dad was given six weeks but lived very happily for six months, this was due to the care he received from the wonderful people here. He was treated with respect, kindness and great humour. Kindness and compassion was also extended to us as a family. Nothing was too much trouble, an extra pillow or blanket or my Dad’s favourite a cup of tea, all done with a smile. I wish I could give more stars but there aren’t enough to express the excellence of this home and the wonderful staff. I would highly recommend this nursing home.Posted on Google![]()

Activities Co-ordinator
I have worked at Marian House now for nearly three years. I actually left to move to Scotland and came back as I missed it so much! Marian House feels like family and that is why I love working here. I feel supported by my colleagues and love making a difference to the residents lives with the activities that we put together. I love the creativity my job role as Activities Co-ordinator offers including the season celebrations that we arrange for the residents and families alike. I have loved the opportunity to raise money for our resident’s activity fund through raffles and events I organise. I recently bought a projector and screen for us to watch films on which the residents enjoy. I am also a yoga and chair exercise instructor and enjoy running sessions as much as possible. Giving back and being of service is what this job offers and I am thankful that I can do this is a happy and well cared for work environment.
