Overall Experience

The staff at Bescot Lodge overall are friendly, hardworking and caring towards those using the facility. I'm kept updated on any incidents which require them to inform me, I'm also greeted by name by most of the staff which is nice. I feel Bescot would benefit from having additional staff, due to its

capacity I creasing significantly since my father arrived. I would like to give special a mention to 4 members of staff, in particular, and admin Thank you.

Reply from Kiran Pal, Admin at Bescot Lodge

Thank you so much for your kind words. We're delighted to hear that you're happy with the care your father receives at the home. I will certainly pass on your lovely feedback to our staff, it means a great deal to them.

I find Bescot Lodge Care Home to be very good for my aunt, she feels comfortable and cared for. She enjoys her walks to the local park and to the local church coffee morning. She is also taken shopping. The staff treat her kindly and joke with her which she enjoys very much. She is well taken of care

in my opinion. Please note - value for money question - I don't pay the bill, my cousin does, so she'd know better than me about value for money!!

Reply from Kiran Pal, Admin at Bescot Lodge

Thank you for your kind words. We're so happy to hear that your aunt feels comfortable and cared for.

Overall Experience

mom became a resident at bescot Lodge in April, she was moved here from the local hospital on a D2A This was her 2nd care home in 3 months, & due to past experiences in the former home we were feeling apprehensive about her level of care in this one, but almost straight away the difference in mom was

amazing.
The staff at bescot have been wonderful, mom is eating and drinking better, she is using normal cups and cutlery again, she is being engaged with all the time and encouraged to do what she is able to the best of her capabilities, we as a family feel that the care given at bescot is just fantastic, they are onto any health concern from the off & keep you 100% informed and involved,
All the staff are always polite & welcoming & it has a really family atmosphere, they do daily activities & also have a mobile hairdresser available for the residents.
Mom is now a permanent resident and we feel this is the best decision for her and us.

Reply from Kiran Pal, Admin at Bescot Lodge

Thank you for your feedback. We're so pleased to hear that you're happy with the care your mom has received at Bescot Lodge. Our team works hard to promote independence while ensuring each resident feels valued and supported. We're truly glad to have her as part of our Bescot Family.

Today I visited this care home with one of my friends and noticed as soon as I entered how clean and tidy the place is. All staff are very friendly and welcoming and noticed how cheerful they are with the residents too. Staff really take care of their health,, medicines, and food. Very gentle and caring

towards the residents. My friends parents are safe here and I am glad to know this.

Thornton Lodge Care Home
from Janine B (Daughter of Resident) published on 14 April 2025

Overall Experience

My mum has been in Thornton Lodge for 12 months. She suffers from Alzheimers and
the staff are lovely with her. They do their best to get her involved in activities and reassure her when she is feeling anxious.
Whenever we go to visit we are made to feel welcome but are not made to feel bad if

we haven't been for a while.
I love that they are dog friendly so I can take my dogs to see mum as i knew she'd miss them.
There are some amazing carers who appear very invested in the staff - obviously some are better than others. I'm also happy to see that in the year my mum has been there there has not been much of a change of staff providing consistency for the residents and family.
On first glance the home does not look as luxurious as some I have been in but it always seems clean and the murals on the walls are lovely and cheerful.
I would have given the home 5 stars if there was more staff which to allow more 1 to 1 time or activities but I know this is not the fault of the carers.

My mother-in-law was placed in the care of Shite Oak House as she wasn't able to care for herself at home. She had quite a few falls. Shire Oak House have taken care of many (excellent Care). The Shire Oak staff have gone above and beyond in their care of my mother-in-law. The food is fantastic and

has a 5 rating on everything, lovely place, lovely place and the staff are fantastic.

Thornton House

Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Thornton House have gone above and beyond. Despite some of the reviews online and their care inspection report from the past year it really does make you realise to 'never judge a book by it's cover'.
My Mum went to Thornton House for a respite.
This was Mum's first time there. It felt like a home

from home, which is exactly how it should be.
Both Deputy & Manager reassured us prior to the stay. For that, thank you!
The staff assisted Mum according to her needs and without fail you could instantly see that the duty of care was there. I could even sense the extra care during pick up as Mum was in good spirits.
Some staff noticed Mum was leaving including the cook and waved goodbye with a beaming smile. It's these little things that make the biggest difference as throughout our experience it shows that they care.
I cannot thank you all enough and I would recommend your services for future reference!

Reply from Paul Gill, RI at Thornton House

Thank you for your kind words and it is greatly appreciated. The manager and the rest of the staff are working hard to make the home a "home from home" environment. We treat all residents who stay with us for 1 week to their final days as part of our own families. We are privileged to be given trust and affection from extended families to look after their loved ones, so thank you for trusting all at Thornton House to look after your mom. If we can be of any service again, please feel free to contact us. Warmest Regards

I cannot praise the staff, the manager, or her deputy enough.
Despite many behavioural challenges from my sister who has mental health illness they treated her with dignity and patience and did their utmost to seek help/work with professionals and family to support her needs.
Although my sister has

now moved on I appreciate how the home went above and beyond for her.
All the staff greet you with a friendly manner and it is lovely to see them caring for the residents. The food was excellent and the home was always clean. We couldn't have asked for any more from any of the team at Shire Oak. Thank you!
