The team at the home have provided fantastic care and support. Communication with the family has been excellent, and staff are always welcoming, attentive, and respectful. It brings real peace of mind knowing my parent is in such a safe, clean, and caring environment

My sister really enjoys the karaoke activities they do there, really lifts her mood. The place seems well run with a good variety of food... and always a great cuppa!

We are also pleased that your husband's mood improved during his time with us and that he appeared to appreciate the care and support he received. Our team works hard to recognise and respond to changing needs, and we are grateful that you appreciated the support provided to both your husband and you during what was undoubtedly a difficult time.
Your kind comments about our staff, atmosphere and food are greatly appreciated and will be shared with the team. We were pleased to have been able to support you both during his stay. We aim to provide person-centred activities and we are always happy to receive feedback.
I visited a friend while on a short stay the staff were always helpful and kind. Although he did not want to go for respite he enjoyed his stay the staff got to know him the short time he was there and for that made his stay that little bit easier for him

The staff are friendly, helpful and professional. They can't do enough to facilitate our requests for my mother in laws care. They are open, honest and easily accessible if there is anything we need to discuss with them. Overall, my impression of this home is excellent, and even though it is not the easiest place to get to for any of our family, we will not move her because we feel she is well cared for and looked after there, only second to being with family.
Wellington Lodge is friendly, clean and lots to do. The staff are really lovely nothing is too much trouble. My sister really liked it. I live 6 doors from a care home which would have been easy for me. It took me 3 buses to get there but was worth it. She didn't want to move anywhere else, only at...

Myself and my mum are really happy with Wellington Lodge. The manager and all the staff are really kind and caring, always there to help when needed. My mum's been so happy with all her meals, eating really well, she has made friends with some of their residents, and I am so pleased that the home smells lovely and is spotlessly clean. A few of the carers are extra special to us, and we will never forget them. Thank you.
My mum has been a resident at Wellington Lodge for tow years, she has been cared for and looked after very well and I have had no issues with the care. Staff are welcoming and helpful at all times and I would recommend this care home.

My Mother moved to Wellington Lodge in May 2024 and since this time the staff have gone above and beyond to meet her sometimes challenging support needs. Every effort was made to ensure my Mother was treated with dignity and respect and staff had a real understanding of what worked best for her. Sadly my Mother's dementia needs became as such that she was unable to remain at Wellington Lodge but regardless the effort to try and support her and keep her in the surroundings and routines she was familiar with will always be remembered. Wellington Lodge is a well managed care home with a staff team that clearly enjoy their jobs and who always great you with a smile. Highly recommended.

My mum's recovery was speedy and I put this in part with the way she was looked after by all staff. If I have any comments to make the care home is slightly dated and could benefit from a redecoration/refresh.
My aunt has always been happy living at Wellington Lodge. She loves all the care staff, who treat her with love and respect. She enjoys the food and drinks, all the common areas are clean and tidy. Unfortunately there are times when the bed and bathroom could do with a good clean.

She used to love all the activities when she was more active but unfortunately isn't able to take part as much now but the carers do all they can to include her and keep her engaged and happy. Thank you to them all.
I have been visiting an old friend for the past two years. I have found the care staff very helpful and efficient. The food looks good and selective.
