Home / Holmer Manor / About us
Welcome to Holmer Manor, sitting in the peaceful Herefordshire countryside, in the village of Holmer. From the moment you arrive, you’ll become part of our “Holmer Manor Family.”
“Mum progress sine she arrived is remarkable. The staff are all extremely kind and caring and take wonderful care of her.”
Rediscover Joy in Everyday Living
Many families tell us their loved ones gain a fresh lease of life when they move in. For the first time in sometimes a very long while, you might begin taking the opportunities we offer to socialise, have fun, pursue hobbies or try new ones, all while great food and drinks are prepared for you and housekeeping burdens are lifted. Your friends and family can visit at any time to suit you, while our expert team provides compassionate care and support with medical and day-to-day personal needs. We focus on your overall health and wellbeing while supporting you to maintain your independence, dignity, and improved quality of life.
Historic Charm, Modern Comfort
All this happens within our wonderful converted Victorian rectory, a beautiful traditional building with thoughtful purpose-built extensions, all fully equipped with modern heating and telecommunications systems. Our accessible, well-maintained garden area is yours to enjoy, and family and friends are welcome to visit at any time of day.
Part of a Trusted Family of Care Homes
Holmer Manor is part of a group of six care homes owned by the Butcher family, who place family values and exceptional care for residents at the heart of everything they do. While you’ll enjoy the warmth of a comfortable home in traditional surroundings, you’ll also benefit from the investment in expertise and state-of-the-art technology that our wider network provides.
Unlike other providers, which are driven by profits from minimising staff costs, we focus on succeeding by delivering the highest quality care. As such, we have some of the highest staff-to-resident ratios and some of the most impressive retention records in the industry.
This means that when you live with us as part of our “Holmer Manor Family,” you receive:
- Highly-personalised care from a loving and compassionate team who know you very well
- An available and involved family management team on hand 24/7
- The latest in care technology supporting every aspect of your care
- Real-time updates for your family via our online Family Portal
- The benefits of some of the highest staffing ratios in the care system
Take a look at our reviews and testimonials to discover the real difference to your life that Holmer Manor will make.
Geoff | Owner
As a family business, we have owned and operated care homes since 1997. Since then, our passion for delivering great care and our zero tolerance for anything else has grown year on year.

Our strapline ‘Because we care’ is very real and, as individuals and a family, we get very upset if we fail to deliver anything less than brilliant care.
I am personally legally and I feel, morally responsible, for each home and its residents. If I am not visiting a home, I am in daily contact with the Registered Managers and their teams. Our systems and processes are all geared to letting me and my directors know when things have not been done, and providing information to enable us to constantly improve.
We never think ‘this is great and it’s good enough’; we always strive to do better.
Hannah | Operations Director
I have been working in the family business for nearly 15 years since XXX.
My job is Operations Director, and I support the Registered Managers and their staff teams to make sure that we maximise the overall wellbeing of each and every resident.

Our job is not just about making sure that there is no poor care: it is about instilling and maintaining a passion for excellence in everything we do. Part of my job is to ensure the smooth running of the homes with exceptionally fast purchasing. So, if a resident needs something, it is in the home within hours, not days or weeks.
I am also responsible for the décor and maintenance of the homes, making sure they are homely and fulfil the wishes and aspirations of each individual resident and their family.
Michael | Finance Director
My role as Finance Director is to ensure the long term financial sustainability of the care home. I am also responsible for Health & Safety, Data Protection and Information Technology.

I regularly work from our care Homes as it’s important to be hands-on, working with our teams to ensure that the necessities of regulation don’t detract from the demanding job of delivering great care.
Unlike many in the care industry, we are investing significantly in IT; we see technology as an effective way of constantly improving the quality of care and to continue to be more responsive to our residents’ and staff’s needs. Our systems tell us in real-time if things have not been done. Care is a 24/7 business and we work every hour necessary to ensure that issues are addressed immediately.
