I highly recommend Heath Lodge. My father was admitted in April 2023 and we were apprehensive but we needn't of worried from the first day we were put at ease. His care was exceptional we were treated wonderfully by all staff. Nothing was too much trouble. Every member of staff from management carers cleaners laundry and catering were amazing. The last week of his life we spent very long days with him. The staff cared for us as much as him. Thank you for everything.
Thank you for your kind words and for entrusting us with the care of your father. We hope that we brought you some comfort at such a difficult time. Warmest wishes, Mihaela

I can't thank all the staff at Heath Lodge enough for the outstanding care they show my Mother. Her room is like a home away from home and the care the staff from the top down give her is second to none. She is so content and smiles all the time now and I wouldn't like to see her anywhere else....
Thank you all.
Thank you so much for your kind words. It is our privilege to care for your mother. Warm wishes.

I would recommend this home (5 stars) to anyone to whom it may concern. About four weeks ago, my husband was transferred from hospital to a home providing palliative care. Heath Lodge was recommended to me and on visiting the accommodation, its facilities and its staff in all areas, including the kitchen, I was pleasantly surprised at the calmness and cleanliness. Today I'm so grateful my husband is here.
