Oaken Holt Nursing and Residential Home is a truly special place. From the moment you walk through the door, you can feel the warmth and genuine care that the staff bring to their work every day. They treat residents with such kindness, patience, and respect, and it’s clear that they take the time to understand each person as an individual. The atmosphere is calm, welcoming, and full of small thoughtful touches that make it feel like home. Knowing that loved ones are surrounded by people who truly care brings enormous peace of mind. I’m deeply grateful for everything the team at Oaken Holt does.

While it is, of course, disappointing to see a rating that goes against the high standards we expect at our home, we are always happy to accept feedback and would welcome any further detail on what prompted your score.

As a Private Client Solicitor I spend a lot of time travelling to various care homes. This is one of the best I have come across. The buildings and rooms are all smart and well kept, the staff are friendly, there seems to be a plethora of fun activities each day and the setting of the care home is majestic. Definitely worth contemplating for any types of elderly care.

You can feel the warmth and the generosity of care for all visitors and residents as soon as you enter the impressive, yet still homely, Oaken Holt. Oh, and the shortbread is excellent as well.

Somehow I don’t think Harvey Bains manages this beautiful place. My great uncle lived here right after the last series of Waiting For God.

Such a lovely and charming home. I visit often to see my friend. One lives at Oaken Holt and the other at Wytham House. Everyone is so kind and accommodating. The manager is a kind man and always has time to listen. This home will always hold a special place in my heart.
