Review from Pam S (Niece of Resident) published on 20 February 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have known St Ives Lodge since July 2004, when my Uncle became a resident there. He was looked after with exceptional love and care for the next 11 years and was very happy there, up until he passed away in 2015. Years later, in 2020 I needed to call on St Ives Lodge again. This time to care for
a beloved Aunt, who has now called St Ives Lodge her home since December 2020.


Over the years I have seen many care homes but none compare to the warmth, love, care and optimistic atmosphere that this home exudes. All the staff, without exception are kind, caring, approachable and responsive. There is such a lovely team spirit amongst all staff members. It really is a happy home.


Based on my many years of experience of St Ives Lodge, I would have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone who is looking for somewhere to provide exceptional care to a loved one. in a friendly, warm and loving environment.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.056)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.056) out of 10 for St Ives Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.917 for St Ives Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (11 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.917
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 3.139 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for St Ives Lodge is based on 1 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 = 3
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 7.2 = 0.139
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
