The Wishing Well Experiences to Treasure
Linda
Let's Go Fly a Kite
Linda fondly remembered flying kites with her father as a little girl. Armed with supplies, we took to the skies at Dunstable Down. Linda said: “Although it was almost 70 years since I’d done it, the memories came flooding back and it was so much fun!”

What our Families Say
Independently verified reviews from carehome.co.uk
I can't describe my sense of gratitude that our brother is being cared for with such compassion and diligence. The care home both cares and is a real home. We were served the most delicious lunch and treated as real family members, not tiresome visitors. 5 stars all round!
Sue H
Resident's sister
I am totally blown away by this fantastic care home. The staff are amazing - nothing is ever too much trouble. My father-in-law loves the staff and they appear to love him - you really can't fake this.
David
Resident’s son-in-law
The staff, management and facilities are superb, giving me peace of mind. The team go the extra mile to look after the residents and families. I could not think of a better place for Mum, she really feels safe and happy. I highly recommend.
Peter
Resident's son
We moved my Mother to Water Mill as she had stopped engaging with life at her previous care home. In six weeks this situation has completely turned around. Mum is smiling again, engaging with staff and eating really well. The chefs have bent over backwards to ensure that she has nutritious food that she can enjoy. We are delighted and relieved to see Mum enjoying life again in this calm and caring place.
Suzy
Resident's daughter
Every time I have visited my mother, I have found her to be happy and well cared for. There is always something going on and the staff encourage the residents to be involved. I would recommend the Water Mill House to anyone as they genuinely do care.
Pamela
Resident's daughter
The care home is well decorated, clean and tidy. The staff are very helpful, smiley and kind. Always trying to get the residents involved in numerous activities, including outside of the care home. Very well run.
