Our Reviews

"A truly special place."

From the moment we first visited Old Hastings House, we knew it was the right choice. The staff are so kind and genuinely care about every resident. My mum is happy, well cared for, and enjoys the activities – especially the gardening club! We feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful home.

"Warm, welcoming and respectful."

I’ve visited many care homes through my work, and Old Hastings House stands out for all the right reasons. The atmosphere is positive and the staff treat residents with real dignity. It’s clear that this is more than just a job to them – it’s a vocation. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

"Peace of mind for our whole family."

Moving Dad into residential care wasn’t easy, but the team made the process smooth and reassuring. He settled in quickly thanks to the friendly staff and the thoughtful, well-organised activities. We especially love the newsletters and regular updates – they help us feel involved even when we’re not there.

"Excellent care in a beautiful setting."

Old Hastings House has exceeded all our expectations. The surroundings are lovely, the rooms are spotless, and there’s a genuine sense of community. My aunt enjoys the armchair travel sessions and often tells us how much she likes the food. Thank you to all the team – your dedication shines through.
