Review of
Abbey House
from C S (Mother of Resident) published on 3 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Our son has lived at Abbey House for 10 months now. He settled in incredibly quickly and soon established a great relationship with every single member of staff. I feel very comfortable knowing that he is in the safe hands of his wonderful Abbey House family. He absolutely loves the delicious food which

is carefully planned and the wide variety of personalised activities. I feel immensely lucky that our son is living in such a fantastic place with such amazing staff.

When we visited at Easter, my niece seemed to be happy and her speech and responses seemed to be much improved.
Her key worker was extremely helpful and showed a genuine affection toward my niece.

Review of
Sea Breeze
from G S (Mother of Resident) published on 26 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

In the last month our daughter has had some health issues and I can't praise or thank enough the manager & the deputy manager who has cared for our daughter for the whole time she has lived at Seabreeze and all the caring wonderful day/night staff.
They have all given our family peace of mind that

our daughter is in good caring compassionate hands.
It is clear to see that all the staff have the guys who live at Seabreeze their best interest at heart making Seabreeze a happy, fun and safe environment to live in.

Review of
Caroline House
from Michael R (Father of Resident) published on 26 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Good communication, friendly approachable staff.
However not familiar with all staff due to no update on the photo board.or any introduction to new members of staff when they are employed,
My view is the home is restricted as space is at a premium due to to many wheelchairs for the community space

available ,

Review of
Orchard Lodge
from Ray W (Brother of Resident) published on 25 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

The staff always welcome my sister and I to the home and even know exactly how to make my sisters coffee without her having to explain. When we visit our brother, he always looks very smart and wears presentable clothing. If ever we have a question, the staff can give us an answer and they are always

looking to make our brother's life as comfortable as possible. Recently, he has become very sleepy and the staff are in talks with his doctor to slowly reduce his meds to give him a better quality of life. We can see that the staff really do care for our brother and he regularly goes out on trips, which he really enjoys. We know he is looked after and cared for very much which is comforting as we live a fair distance away and so can only get to see him once a week. Orchard Lodge is a lovely home for our brother and we know he is happy living there.

What a lovely place! I was so concerned about Dad going into a nursing home but the staff here have been welcoming and supportive to both Dad and the family, he is settling in well even after only 6 weeks. It is well organised and any queries are answered and followed through. The staff are friendly

and helpful, the food is excellent and it just feels like a lovely place. Thank you for all that you're doing.

Review of
Brendon Lodge
from Patricia G (Mother of Resident) published on 31 May 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

We can't thank the staff of Brendon Lodge enough for their continuing care of our daughter, who unfortunately has been in hospital a few times this year. They arrange staff for night time for us (mum and dad) as we are not spring chickens, being 80 years and 78 years old. We cover the day time and they

provide a carer for nights in hospital as well. The care in the home did not lapse. All was catered for over Easter.

Review of
Orchard Lodge
from Brian S (Relative of Resident) published on 15 October 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

It is always a delight to visit Orchard Lodge and see my relative. The welcome is always warm and accommodating and attention to visitors is very good.
The staff are similarly attentive to the residents and evidently care about those they are responsible for. It is very reassuring for us as a family,

to know that our relation is safe, secure and being genuinely loved and cared for.

Reply from Sandra Burgess, HR Manager at Orchard Lodge

Thank you for your feedback, it's good to know the family are confident their relative is in safe and caring hands.

The staff and management pull together to make good things happen for each individual and for the wider group, home and community. The Makaton sign-a-long was inspirational. My son is valued. My son is supported in all aspects of his life.

Review of
Orchard Lodge
from Ray W (Brother of Resident) published on 25 July 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

The staff have worked extremely well and have developed a good understanding and bond with my brother. They have made him welcome in the short space of time he has had at Orchard Lodge as they do with me and my family during visits. After an unsettled spell, staff have worked out the cause of the problem

and now I see my brother the happiest he has been for many years. My brother is occupied either at the Lodge or on many trips out, which makes him very happy and content.

Orchard Lodge
from Margaret D (Sister of Resident) published on 25 June 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

Whenever I go to visit my brother the staff on duty couldn't be nicer. They are all very professional but at the same time very friendly, nothing is too much trouble and it is like a home from home.
They will sit down with you and answer any questions you have and inform you what he has been doing

and where he has been.
A very lovely home, he seems happier than he has been for a long time.
I couldn't be happier.
