Ashbury Lodge has been truly amazing. My uncle went for respite in Ashbury for three weeks. After an assessment he was welcomed three days later. I felt completely comfortable leaving my uncle in safe hands. He had a fantastic stay, days filled with music, painting, exercise, group games, all very...

With the problems that my father has encountered the staff has been wonderful at handling everything from simple tasks like complete care to more complicated ones. They are highly reliable and I would recommend Coate water care to anyone that is interested. Gideon does his best to resolve problems and gets the problem sorted as soon as possible he is a wonderful manager and I am able to have my full trust in the staff.
Thank you for taking the time to complete the review. We of course will share your lovely feedback with the team.
When we were looking for a care home for Dad, Ashbury Lodge was one of several we had shortlisted. We decided to visit unannounced on a Saturday afternoon, and from the moment we walked through the door we were struck by the warmth and kindness of the staff. They welcomed us, took the time to show...
What impressed us even more was that by Monday morning our visit had been acknowledged, and arrangements were made to come and meet Dad. He moved into Ashbury Lodge shortly afterwards, and the care he has received ever since has been outstanding. Every member of staff we have met has shown genuine compassion, patience and understanding towards Dad and his individual needs. As a family, this has been incredibly reassuring. Dad had been living independently before unexpectedly suffering a stroke, so his move into residential care was a huge adjustment and emotional shock for us all.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. it means a great deal to our team to know that your dad is receiving such compassionate and outstanding care and support . we are proud of our staff and their commitment to treating every resident with kindness , dignity and respect . Your kind words are truly appreciated and we hope we can do even more.

Positive atmosphere for residents, facilities very clean.
Thank you.
The staff seemed to be interested in the residents, always using their names. From what I saw they seemed to be respectful toward them, and toward their visitors. There always seems to be quite a variation in meals and snacks.

The staff do their best and do work hard, and the range of activities and visits from outside organisations is good, however there does not seem to be enough staff to properly meet residents needs.
We would like to clarify that the concerns formally raised with the Home Manager relate to specific aspects of an individual care plan, which have been acknowledged and responded to promptly. A meeting has been held with the family to review these matters in detail and...

I have always found that the staff of Ashbury Lodge to be hardworking, friendly and caring. They treat all residents with kindness and respect at all times. Sometimes when great patience is required. The home itself is always very clean and tidy, comfortable and with no undesirable smells. There is always a good range of activities happening and residents are encouraged to join in. I am very happy that my husband is there.

I have found the care staff to be genuinely kind, caring, patient and respectful to residents. They all seem to work really hard, in addition, there are a variety of activities organised on a daily basis for the residents. My dad particularly likes the singing and dancing, with guest singers frequently visiting.
The cleaning staff are always friendly and hardworking.Also, Maria, working on the reception and administration team has been a huge help to me. She always has time to help resolve any queries I might have and seems to do an amazing job of coordinating everything while being warm and welcoming.
The fact that it is a fairly small home, I feel is a good thing, because the staff really get to know the residents and family well.
Thank you for the lovely review. It is a pleasure looking after your dad. We will feed back to the wider team. Regards Lisa
Very good, much improved environment. Plenty of interaction with residents, quick to advise on issues. Rooms are good, staff are always chatting with residents.

Mum has been at Ashbury Lodge for two years now and is really happy there. Before she lived there, she was scared, angry, defensive and her life had reduced due to her Alzheimer's but I feel the care is satisfactory and all activities she has at Ashbury have opened up her life again. She is safe and secure, her medical needs are met and she is even trying activities she would never have done before (eg dancing). She had become quite isolated, but I also think the company has done her the world of good. Thank you.
Thank you for taking the time to review our lovely home. I am so pleased that your mum has settled in and enjoying all our activities. I will feed back to the wider team. RegardsLisa

My mum stayed at Ashbury Lodge for approximately a year. All the staff are wonderful and really take care to ensure their residents are safe and feeling content. They go out of their way to encourage residents to take part in the activities they have going on. My mum really enjoyed the chair exercises and the singers that came in to perform. She also made some lovely friends. Unfortunately due to my mum's illness progressing, we had to move her into a Nursing Home (under the same Care Home umbrella). The Care Home Manager was fantastic in supporting us with the move, she really cares about all the residents in the home and will go out of her way to ensure the best outcome. Thank you everyone!

The staff worked very hard and treated my mum with care and dignity. They treated her with love and tried hard to make her happy. Dementia made my mum very difficult and challenging at times but this was dealt with by Ashbury Lodge as well as they could. My only comments are that I felt the staff were under staffed and the continuity of care with some staff members wasn't there. Mananagement were also a bit distant. 95% to the hard working staff members.

Lovely care home, staff always seem attentive, so glad my mum is being looked after, although I would like more updates on my mum, as I live outside the United Kingdom, meals always seem good and satisfying, all in all happy with Ashbury lodge.

My Mum was a self-funding resident of Ashbury Lodge from Dec 2023 until Mar 2025. The care team at Ashbury Lodge are incredible, and they have been very pragmatic and respectful of my Mum's dignity as she came to terms with needing dementia support. At all times, I have felt my Mum was safe, and there was amazing interaction with the NHS practitioners to give my Mum a care package that was constantly adjusted to her developing needs. It has felt like there has been a high staff turnover, but this appears to be normal with care homes/care work, but I firmly believe Ashbury has always provided consistent care. The management team have always listened and reacted to feedback. My Mum has moved to a another Care Nursing home now as her medical needs have escalated, and the support from theAshbury Lodge Manager and her team during this transition has been incredible. I firmly believe that Ashbury Lodge is the best option in Swindon for a person with dementia care needs.

The residents seem to be comfortable and looked after by the staff in this home. What is of concern is the large turnaround of staff at present - every time we visit, there seems to be someone new, this home is currently on its fourth manager in two years. Sometimes there are residents left in the dining/lounge area without any staff to be seen, some of these people are quite vunerable.

I am usually the first face to visitors/ professionals who come to the home. My role is to support one manager and one deputy and deal with all the administration work for both the residents and staff in the home.
I enjoy my job as it's varied but extremely busy, staff are always willing to help out cover shifts when I ask, so the home is run effectively. When I have time, I enjoy getting involved with the residents’ activities and seeing how much they get from what we do for them.
