St George's Lodge

As a Social Worker of 25-years, I have visited 100’s of care homes and feel very confident that Mum is living in one of the best.

Basically, great staff, great atmosphere, great food, kind and loving staff who really care about the residents.

I spent a few months respite at St George's Lodge; I had a lovely room. The carers were very kind and helped me with my rehab. Nothing was too much trouble for them. I felt safe and was very happy there.

I have had dealings with many care homes over the last few years, and can honestly say that St George's Lodge is exceptional in every respect. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

My sister was a resident of St George's care home for around five years, until her death in October 2019. During this time, the care given to her was consistently good. She was very comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed the lovely meals. Despite her many health and mobility issues, she was treated with patience and care. Ample attention was given to the residents by providing a range of indoor and outdoor activities. It was very reassuring for our family to know that she was in safe and caring hands.

I have attended St George’s Lodge on a few occasions now to help out at events, and we also attended with two therapy ponies. The staff go out of their way to make everyone feel welcome and happy. The care of the residents is exceptionally good. The quality of food is fantastic. A lot of effort seems to go into ensuring the residents to have plenty of things to participate in. The decor is modern and clean.

When I visited my aunt at St Georges care home, I was very impressed by the cleanliness and the staff. All the residents seemed extremely happy.

My mother went into St George's Lodge in May 2019 after a couple of falls meant she was unable to take care of herself. She was met with friendly and attentive staff as well as very involving social care. Everyone at the home was incredibly friendly and attentive and I cannot fault the facilities or the treatment my mother received in any way whatsoever. Mum, unfortunately, died in September, but right up to the end received the best care imaginable. I would not hesitate to recommend St George's to anyone seeking a restful and comfortable home.

Mum was looked after very well during her time at the home. She was treated with kindness and respect and it didn’t take long before she considered it as her ‘home’.

A relaxed welcoming place with friendly, helpful staff. The building is clean, brightly decorated and well maintained with a pleasant garden. Catering offers a varied choice of menu. Residents are encouraged to participate in various activities including a weekly session with a physiotherapist.

Having just received several photographs of my sister taking part and enjoying the various activities provided goes to confirm how well she is looked after and how happy and contented she is in St Georges. She has a pleasant en-suite room, gets on well with the staff, loves the food and recently has been able to enjoy the visiting dogs. Well done St Georges and thank you.

What a find! We have been well supported through a very difficult stage of a life changing situation. Staff could not have been more welcoming and the care could not have been better and as a result our decision to move our loved one to residential care here has been the best we could have made. Thank you!

My daughter and my husband visited several care home before we found St George's Lodge. How glad we are we chose the last on the list. I have been more than satisfied with all aspects of our choice. I would recommend to anyone.

Overall I feel that St Georges is a warm and caring place that not only tries to make its residents feel like it is their home and not just a care home that helps with their care, it also helps make the relatives feel happy knowing that their family members are being looked after.

Nothing but praise for the care and attention she received. Her room was large and newly refurbished and kept clean. She made quite a few friends at St Georges and was happy here. Food good. She enjoyed the entertainment provided.

From day one St Georges Lodge was like a home to my Dad and his family. We instantly felt at home at St Georges and the staff made us feel all part of the family. For my Fathers 100th Birthday, the home held a lovely party with great food, birthday cake and decorations. My Dad was able to celebrate his birthday with his four best friends at the home and friends and family were all invited. Staff even came in on their day off!

St Georges always went above and beyond their duty's. I am partially disabled and find it hard to get out and about. Staff at the home were always happy to get bits of shopping for my Father and run errands that I couldn't manage to do myself.

Sadly Dad passed away last month but the care he received at end of life was excellent. The home agreed to hold his wake at St Georges so all of his friends could attend. We are very grateful that Dad had such a lovely send off!

St George's Lodge is perfect for a homely and family atmosphere with the reassurance they are in the best caring hands.

Very friendly home, staff are great, residents (some over 100 years old) are very friendly and engaging. This home puts on special events for residents, family and friends, the latest being a jazz event in the garden, which was well supported, with great food and drink and a good band. Pity the rain came down to spoil the party, but that's the way it is during a British summer!

My Mum spent seven happy months at St. George's Lodge. I remember the first day she arrived here from the hospital she was so happy and said "I'm Home!" because that is the way she felt. The staff at St. George's have been wonderful and taken care of her every need. My mother has not always been the most patient of people and could, at times, be quite rude to the staff. She didn't mean to be, it was just the way she was and her age. Everyone here has been most kind and treated her with great respect and dignity. I would sincerely recommend St George's to anyone looking to find a care home of this quality.

We chose St George's Lodge as I used to work there and knew how good it is. Mum has settled well and is getting used to life in a care home. Dad visits twice a week who is also in a wheelchair and the staff are great with him. Would recommend to anyone looking for a friendly care home.
