Wall of Love

It was like a breather of fresh air getting away from constant demands and routine!

We had a lovely time at the hotel, it was beautiful, and we enjoyed having a swim in the pool and using the sauna. What a special treat it was for myself and my cousin who came with me. The hotel itself was beautiful, and we were welcomed so nicely by the reception staff. The room was very clean and well presented, as was the whole of the hotel. It was nice to have breakfast and a real treat for me as I didn’t have to cook. We would happily go to Stratford Manor again.

Being able to have a break away and being able to relax was wonderful, especially as I could take a close relative with me so it was company and we had a good time. I cannot fault the hotel it was brilliant, staff were very attentive and kind, food was lovely. All in all I had a wonderful overnight stay thanks to Carefree, Carers Careline and the Holiday Inn in Lichfield.

I had a lovely time in a beautiful hotel near Kenilworth. The room was large and comfortable with a TV and tea, and coffee-making facilities. The breakfast menu was delicious, ranging from cooked, cereals and toast. It was just great to get away on my own and have no caring responsibilities for a couple of days. The break made me feel that I was cared for too, and I returned home feeling happier. Thank you all so much for your kindness in organising my break.

We had a lovely time, the hotel was lovely, the room was perfect, staff at the desk were really nice. It was also lovely to have breakfast the following morning cooked for us and no washing up to do. Can’t thank all involved enough for some free time to enjoy without worrying.

Truly a relaxing, happy time away. Felt like myself as a person and not a carer. Slept really well and enjoyed the wonderful breakfast. I walked, had coffee in a cafe by the river, and browsed the charity shops. I met and spoke to people along the walk. Simple pleasures meant so much. To be able to switch off for a while with no rushing, skipping meals & having that constant worry. Thank you so much, it meant the world to me.

The break gave me the chance to totally relax with a friend and enjoy time for myself without anyone relying on me. I came home feeling more positive and ready to resume my caring role.

The break was very welcome. I was able to go away with my husband and spend two nights enjoying London. The hotel upgraded us to a newly refurbished room and added breakfast to our stay. The hotel had thought of a lot of little details that added to the ease of the stay. The staff were all very efficient and helpful. I will recommend Carefree to my other friends who are caring for loved ones and would benefit from a break. Thank you.

The hotel was great. Beds comfy and staff welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was lovely. We ate in the hotel one night too which was lovely. Had a free drink on arrival which was unexpected. I could have an alcoholic drink knowing I didn't have caring responsibility during the break!

Superb hotel & facilities. I felt like me again. The real me, not a carer. Wonderful experience. Thoroughly spoilt. Beautiful countryside. Peaceful relaxing & fun. Amazing food. Loved the pool, steam room and heated loungers. I'm very blessed to have had this opportunity.

Quality time with my daughter in quality surroundings was a real treat for both of us, as I've been caring for family most of her 20 years. The location, hotel, breakfast and staff were all faultless. Thank you soo much 💓
