Lampton House has a Review Score of 8.4 (8.382) out of 10, based on 4 reviews in the last 2 years.
Over all time Lampton House has 21 reviews.
All the staff at Lampton House were very kind and caring during my mum's stay. The food was lovely, and my mum enjoyed the activities that had been organised.
Lovely Victorian property with nice gardens. My dad has been a resident for 1 1/2 years. He seems settled. The staff and carers are friendly and welcoming. Me and my sister had New Years Day Lunch at the home with dad and the other residents which was very nice.
Mum is very well cared for by all the dedicated staff at Lampton House. Mum enjoys the food and likes her room.
Thank you for your positive review.
Caring for your mother continues to be a pleasure.
Lampton House is a small, caring Home with a very pretty garden and various planned activities. Mum was resident at Lampton House for 6 years, until her needs became too complex and she transferred to a Nursing Home. Whilst Mum had minimal physical care needs she had other complex needs. The Manager and staff dealt with these with care and compassion. I cannot thank them enough for the patience and understanding they consistently demonstrated, not just to Mum, but to me and my sister as well. Whilst the Manager, my sister and I thought Mum would spend the remainder of her life at Lampton House, sadly Mum's need's became far too complex. The Manager was key in ensuring that the right Nursing Home was found for Mum for which my sister and I are very grateful. We wholly recommend Lampton House.
Thank you for your kind review. It was a pleasure looking after your mother and getting to know both yourself and your sister. I'm please that by working together we were able to achieve a positive outcome for your mother.
Wishing you and your mother all the very best in the future.
We needed a care home ASAP as my 90-year-old father had declined in health rapidly. I called Lampton House first as it was the closest to my parent's home. The manager was so kind, helpful and reassuring and confirmed they had a room available. Forms were emailed immediately, and I was able to pop them back in person that day. To cut a long story short, we were able to take my father in that same evening. He was very well looked after, and the whole team of staff were so lovely and kind. Sadly, my father passed away just two weeks later, but we as a family were so grateful that he was well cared for by such an excellent team... so thank you so very much for being there at such a sad time.
Thank you for your kind review. It was a pleasure caring for your father in his final days.
There were some frustrations on a practical level. The rooms need to be cleaned more frequently and more thoroughly. Clothing sent to the laundry would sometimes disappear despite being named, and woollens would return shrunken. The lift was often out of order. I would like to emphasise that these were practical problems that by no means reflect upon the superb level of care given by the manager and her team.
Thanks for your kind review. It was a pleasure caring for your mother, and everyone at Lampton House appreciated your family support throughout her time with us. I hope our old lift did not impact on your mother's well-being too much, but I'm pleased to say that a new one is being installed next...
Wonderful care of my mother during the last 3 years. The staff and the Manager in particular could not have done more to make mum healthy and happy. The love of all concerned kept mum at peace and she referred to Lampton as a hotel, full of nice people. Thank you so much.
Thank you for your kind review. It was a pleasure caring for your lovely mother for the last 3 years. Thank you for all your support.
My uncle choose to enter Lampton House more than three years ago. He instantly gelled with the manager and the rest of the care team - enjoying his time there and the excellent care he was given. He loved the food and was so impressed that if he wanted to he could choose an omelette! My uncle felt it was homely and a caring place to be. As a widower, he had become lonely and frail and Lampton House gave him a good chapter in his life for his final days - Having just lost him, we shall be ever grateful to think he was well cared for and excellently looked after, especially in the unprecedented times of the pandemic. Well done all those at Lampton House, you certainly deserve a pat on the back.
Throughout all these years she was well cared for, always comfortable, well fed and confident in her environment.
All the staff have always been welcoming to visitors and it is clear they care for all residents with calm compassion whatever there care needs may be. From the wine at Sunday lunch, the splendid Christmas dinner and homemade birthday cakes with singing every year they provide a very homely welcoming place
I only have good words for all of the staff, they made my mother's last years happy and secure.
Kind regards
Annie and the team at Lampton House
My mother was a resident of Lampton House care home for 9+ years until her death in March 2021. During this time she received excellent care from a dedicated care team under the excellent leadership of their manager. The home provides a good range of daily activities which my mother never missed, especially the quizzes and music. Mum suffered from acute anxiety following the death of her husband of 60 years prior to becoming a resident at Lampton House. The staff at Lampton House managed mum's anxiety very well and enabled her to have a meaningful and fulfilling life. It was very difficult not being able to visit mum during the Covid Lockdowns, although daily phone calls to mums room, video calls and regular updates from the manager maintained contact and provided reassurance. The end of life care mum received was exemplary nursing care as well as the respect and dignity shown towards her and our family especially during her last week when we were able to be at her bedside.
My mother resided at Lampton House for 9 years. She was very happy and always felt safe. The level of care given by the manager and her team was excellent. All staff shows residents respect, care, and patience. The days are well structured which really suited mum. Mealtimes were good, tasty, and healthy food was served, always an important part of her day. A wide range of daily activities were always enjoyed, especially the quizzes.
It was a pleasure caring for your mother for 9 years. She was a big personality in our Lampton House family and we all miss her.
Kindest regards,
David, Annie and the Team
Unlike many care homes, Lampton House is a characterful place with a homely, family feel. My mother had a lovely room looking onto the garden which soon became her favourite place, especially as the weather was so good this year. My mother also enjoyed some of the many activities which are organised by the staff. I loved getting the newsletter and seeing photos of my mother enjoying herself.
The manager and staff work as a wonderful team which has been tested to the full this year. At no point did I feel the level of care had dropped. If you are considering a care home for a relative, I recommend Lampton House without any reservations. Pay a visit - meet the manager - I am sure you will be impressed.
Thank you for your kind review. The Manager and her team appreciate your support.
The management and staff have gone above and beyond in the care and time they have given to mum.
Since the COVID lockdown, the video calls have been amazing to me and my family.
The staff are caring, helpful and have a positive attitude towards residents.
Mum is very happy at Lampton House.
Thank you for your very kind review.
The manager and staff at Lampton are always cheerful and understanding when we are worried about Mum, as just now, with the Covid-19 situation. They are such a jolly, kind and helpful team who seem to be handling the difficulties efficiently and well, which is very reassuring and for which we are extremely grateful. We feel lucky that my mother is living there and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
My mother moved here for a period of convalescence when she was discharged prematurely from hospital immediately before Christmas; our family was very grateful to the manager for accepting her at very short notice. She regained her physical health quickly under the care she received here; her relatively complex medications were handled well by the Lampton House team and the local medical practice who seem to work well together. She is now able to move on to an alternative care arrangement with a lower level of support but we would certainly suggest a return to Lampton House in the future if she needs it.
Anyone thinking of moving here long-term should be aware that cognitive decline often accompanies physical decline and although the activities on offer are appropriate to the majority of residents, some might find them insufficiently stimulating.
We were very lucky to get my mum a place here during my dad's final illness. The staff go out of their way to be kind and helpful to residents and visitors alike. Unfortunately, but understandably, my mum reacted badly to her husband's death and had to be moved to a more appropriate hospital. During this very difficult time, the staff and manager of Lampton House went out of their way to be supportive to mum and us, her children, we are very grateful. This is a very well managed and caring home and I would recommend it to all.
We were lucky to find a respite bed at Lampton House for my 92-year-old Mum who was recovering from a fall. The staff, without fail, were kind and caring and took very good care of her. She was only just beginning to take part in the activities when she returned, but I was impressed with the range and quality that was on offer. We would have no hesitation in returning to Lampton House again if the need were to arise.
Thank you. It was pleasure looking after your mum.
The manager is very caring and this reflects throughout the whole home. Carers are friendly and cheerful. There are lots of activities each day to choose from. Mum has had excellent care here during a respite visit. Many thanks.
Thank you. It was a pleasure looking after your mum.
The care my mother received was second-to-none. Caring staff went out of their way to make her last days comfortable and she was never left alone in her room. There was always a carer there for her last days.
David Gillespie, Lampton House.
Thank you all so much. This has been a difficult time and the staff at Lampton House have made what I thought was going to be an awful experience actually a very positive one. I would highly recommend to anyone.
