White Lodge Residential home was originally a unique single-storey building of character built in the late 1920’s. The property stands in its own landscaped garden and is approximately 200 yards from the sea and the same distance from the local village shopping centre with Post Office and General Store.

It has been modernised and extended and now provides superb facilities and a very happy restful home for people requiring 24 hourly supportive care.

Accommodation is provided in thirty large, self-contained single rooms. All rooms are light, airy and very tastefully and comfortably furnished. All have modern double-glazing, LED TV's and free private direct line telephones, as well as a two way speaking call bell. All bedrooms have their own private en-suite facilities. Some rooms lead directly onto the garden patio while others may have views of the sea.

Communal areas include separate lounges, separate dining rooms and a delightful sun lounge thus enabling residents to meet and socialise. Residents are also encouraged to bring personal possessions, which may help them to feel at home. White Lodge has beautiful south facing sheltered lawned gardens and there is ample car parking.

My uncle had a warm welcome as soon as he set food in White Lodge. From my point of view as his NOK this gives me such peace of mind knowing he is well looked after, safe and his needs are met on a daily basis, by dedicated staff who always have a warm smile on their face.

The first time we walked into a light ,bright,clean White Lodge we were met with a friendly smile and lovely smell of the dinner cooking,
After a tour of the rooms we decided this was the place we wanted our elderley mother to be looked after.The staff soon became friends and it was so reasuring to
know that Mums care was second to none,keeping the family up to date with various medical issues that Mum had.
When she was in good health Mum was pleased to go down to the lounge to enjoy the many activities organised daily. We also remember all the colourful Summer garden parties, Christmas and raffles and the entertaining guest singers who were often brought into the home. Music and sing a longs was a real tonic for residents staff and visitors.
The whole family cannot fault White Lodge and we will be eternally grateful to you all.

I couldn't be happier with the choice we made for mum. Emma and Lou have been brilliant and so supportive with mum's move, they have helped make what could have been a very stressful situation so easy, and both mum and I feel very supported. I can't thank them enough. Mum is being so well looked after
in lovely surroundings with genuinely lovely people.

I can thoroughly recommend White Lodge where my mother was resident for 4 years before moving onto a 'sister home'. Molly room 14, felt like part of the family there and although difficult to deal with my mother the staff were outstanding and maintained a great sense of humour.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 95 year old father came to White Lodge initially for respite care after a spell in hospital. He then stayed as we felt it the best place for him rather than coming home. The care he received was outstanding. Nothing was too much effort and he was treated with dignity and patience and understanding.
Every single member of staff were so kind, both to him and to anyone who visited.


White Lodge is like a home from home. It has a lovely welcoming atmosphere and as far as I could see, all the residents seemed very happy and settled. The food and choice of food is varied and delicious and if there was nothing on the menu my dad fancied he could ask for something different (usually ice cream)! There are daily activities which the residents can choose to take part in or not. They can be as sociable or as private as they wish and their choices are respected. I would recommend White Lodge to anyone who is looking for a friendly, caring, safe place for their loved one.

My mother was a resident at White Lodge for over 6 years until December 2024 when her care needs increased. She has therefore now moved to a nursing home run by the same company. She settled very well at White Lodge. She knew all the staff and they knew her and she had a good bond with them all. All
the staff are friendly and respectful and go above and beyond to look after the residents. My mother much enjoyed the food and was able to have her favourite dishes. White Lodge have a very good range of activities. The manager and head of care are both very approachable and caring and do their best to make White Lodge a welcoming environment. I would recommend White Lodge.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I moved into White Lodge 18 months ago for a planned 6 week respite following a hospital stay. I opted to stay on a permanent basis having realised I was becoming incapable of living independently in my own home, a big step. White Lodge meet my needs for a smaller space property which made it made it
feel more of a family home. Recognising my transition from living at home, I felt the whole team provided all of the necessary support and care to help me adjust. The food provided was far nicer to what I had been having. I would certainly recommend White Lodge to anybody looking for a new home.

My mother had been in White Lodge and I had witnessed the exceptional care that she received, so I had no hesitation in recommending it for my mother-in-law when she needed care. I visit my mother-in-law nearly every day and I only ever see kindness and gentle care from the staff. The staff really get
to know the residents and they know what each resident likes and dislikes.

My father-in-law has resided at White Lodge since June 2023 and has settled in very nicely and seems happy. My husband and I were recommended White Lodge and we haven't been disappointed in our choice.
We have found White Lodge welcoming, homely and very clean. The staff are always pleasant, helpful
and nothing seems too much. The food is excellent and always looks appetising. There are plenty of activities for him to join in with, but no pressure if you don't want to.
We feel more than happy that he is living in a safe happy environment.

My mother went into the care home in May 2022. Since that time she has been extremely content there. She loves the stuff you have made her feel welcome and very much part of the family. Everyone we deal with puts Mum's wishes first and she is never compelled to do anything. Communication is to a very
high standard and myself and my brother are kept fully informed of any issues. The food is wonderful and the home is always clean. The entertainment is amazing the two staff members in particular who do this are excellent.

Our mum has been at White Lodge for just over a year. It's in a lovely, quiet location with a pretty garden to sit in or take part in fair-weather activities. The home is not too big, therefore has a very homely feel. We always receive a warm, friendly welcome from all the staff, who are always approachable
and helpful, no matter how busy they are. Mum really enjoys the activities and her meal times. It's such a comfort knowing that she is safe, happy and well looked after. Thank you White Lodge.

My mother was a resident at White Lodge for 18 months. She was very happy with the care and attention she was given over that time. Mum felt very lucky to have been there. She was always treated with respect as well as an individual. The garden as well as the location suited Mum very well. The staff
were always kind and attentive to her needs, they liaised with the doctor or medical people when needed. The staff worked well together and supported each other with their workloads. I could not have managed Mum on my own and have been very grateful for all the care she received over the time she was at White Lodge. Well done to all for a well-run, clean, and homely residential home. Thank you.

Our brother had incurable cancer and moved to White Lodge when he could no longer care for himself. In White Lodge he was very comfortable, he enjoyed the large garden especially and he liked all the staff. He was treated with great kindness, wonderful care, patience and good humour. Even though very
busy, the staff were always available, never rushed the care they gave and often did something extra, for example, they sat with him through the night just before he died so he wouldn't be alone. We are very grateful to them all.

My wife stayed at White Lodge for four weeks in May and June 2022. This was her second stay at White Lodge and she was very happy here. Cleanliness is excellent, facilities excellent, her personal care and safety were well managed, staff welcoming and friendly. My wife says the meals were great... which
possibly reflects the standard of my home cooking! The whole place has a warm and welcoming vibe and we will certainly have no hesitation in using White Lodge again for respite care. Thank you to the whole team.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our aunt has been a resident at White Lodge for a number of years and, at 95 years old, we are convinced that she could not be happier or more comfortable. As visiting has been difficult lately for obvious reasons when we call we always speak with staff members who are caring, fully informed and who
seem emotionally engaged; this is very touching, and it's comforting to know that our aunt is surrounded by a well trained, close-knit, and wholly engaged team.
The location and environment of White Lodge is delightful and the home itself is big enough to have built a sense of community but is small enough to feel intimate and family-focused.
There are few institutions left where so many humane values are as well preserved.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.691)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.691) out of 10 for White 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 10 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 4.941 for White Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (112 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 119 Ratings = 4.941
  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 4.75 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for White Lodge is based on 10 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 3.75
    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 29 registered maximum number of service users is 5.8, which has been reached with 10 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
