It broke my heart having to put Mum in a care home, then it broke all over again when I had to move her to a different one because she wasn't happy in the first. Finding Dawson Lodge, however, has been a saviour for both of us and knowing she is now happy and well looked after is a huge...

I have been a resident here for two and a half years and have always found the staff friendly and caring. We are always encouraged to be independent and lead our own lives as we would wish to at home, without there being any restrictions.

They are already more mobile and articulate. Staff work with me to help provide the best level of care and are prompt to respond to concerns raised. The costs are extremely reasonable and administration of additional small costings are very efficient. Highly recommend.

Dad has been at Dawson Lodge nearly 2 months. It is a vast improvement over his previous care home which we quickly realised did not meet Dad’s needs. The fantastic receptionist showed us around. Her enthusiasm was typical amongst the staff and we knew within minutes this was the place for Dad....
Dad has been at Dawson Lodge nearly 2 months. It is a vast improvement over his previous care home which we quickly realised did not meet Dad’s needs. The fantastic receptionist showed us around. Her enthusiasm was typical amongst the staff and we knew within minutes this was the place for Dad. The home is purpose-built with light and airy ‘public’ rooms whilst the bedrooms are en-suite and have a mini-kitchenette. We also noted many ‘little’ things that made a difference such as tablecloths and menus at mealtimes and individually decorated bedroom doors with addresses familiar to the resident. The comprehensive admissions process identified Dad’s needs. The food is great and there is a daily programme of activities for those who want to take part. I must mention the handyman who involves male residents in some light DIY and some ‘man time’. I would strongly recommend a visit to Dawson Lodge when contemplating a care home if only to see how good the others should be!
The dining room is sometimes noisy with staff chatter and "background music".

I brought my husband to Dawson Lodge from another home. I find Dawson Lodge and its staff friendly, helpful and caring. They have worked hard to welcome him and three weeks in, he seems settled.

Everyone at the care home are fantastic. My mum is so happy and well looked after. I can sleep knowing she is well cared for. Great fun environment.

Lovely gardens, lovely staff/carers a great place to be when you need to be in residential care. Highly recommended.
A very secure home, well decorated and from the reception to all the staff, very friendly and helpful and nothing seems to be too much trouble. The only problem is at times there is a bit of a difficulty to park at times, but not often.
