Food and catering

There is a growing awareness that the correct diet is critical to health. In fact there is considerable evidence that diet has a prophylactic effect against not only dementia, but heart disease and cancer also, which is fully reflected in our menus. Rest assured, we cater for any specific dietary requirements or likes and dislikes you may have.

But we also think food plays an equally important role in community. So we make our mealtimes into social events and actively encourage our residents to ask their family and friends to join us as guests. To add to the sociability, we not only offer wine, but other alcoholic drinks also.

Don’t just take our word for it

We really do focus everything we do around our clients, but don’t take our word for it. Come and see for yourself and then chat in confidence with our clients’ relatives to find out what we are really like.

What people say

With you and all the kind girls at Nettlestead, Mum passed one of the most contented periods in her whole life and we cannot be grateful enough for everything you did to make her comfortable and welcome.

Tessa Cheek

My Nan had 3 ½ extremely happy years at Nettlestead where she was treated with much love and kindness. I viewed many homes in the surrounding area and got more and more disheartened with each one. Nettlestead was different.

Sandie Archer

Words cannot adequately express my grateful thanks for the way you loved and cared for my mother during the 3½ years she has been at Nettlestead.

Rosemary Daniel

I feel part of the Nettlestead family, it is a wonderful care home and I just want to thank you for having the vision to make it feel like a home from home.

Lizzie Hardy

Many, many thanks to all the staff for the care, patience and attention given to Dad over the past two years.

In Nettlestead Retirement Home and its team we found a jewel that loved, cherished and looked after her to the end, thank you so much.

Mike Temple

On behalf of myself and my family I would like to say a very sincere thank you for all you have done for Pearl during all the years she spent with you. I know she was happy with you. Many thanks to you all.
