Review from Naomi B (Sister of Resident) published on 5 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We are very impressed with Grove Lodge. The care of its staff shines brightly with good ideas to entertain their guests on and off site. My brother has been at the Lodge for many years, through the pandemic when the staff's dedication to looking after their guests did not falter. We feel that my brother
is very well cared for and looked after with affection. Contact with the home is easy and understanding.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My brother has been resident here for many years and throughout this time staff have been consistently caring, responsive and professional in their approach. They deal quickly with any medical concerns .They demonstrate real affection for my brother. I have profound confidence in their abilities .


The

home has been refurbished and this helps to maintain a cheerful atmosphere both inside and in the garden.


I would be happy to see more emphasis on activities for the residents, with entertainment coming into the Home from specialist providers and from communal activities involving residents in a practical way. I have recently raised this issue with the Manager and am hopeful of progress in this regard.

Review from Alastair T (Son of Resident) published on 13 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Grove lodge is an amazing care facility .
My father has been a resident for several years.
The current staff are caring , polite and sincere in everything they do .
I recently reported a concern for one member of staff and this was dealt with very quickly and the staff member no longer works at Grove
Lodge .
My father has Vascular dementia and I am regularly updated regarding any concerns from the staff regarding the ongoing situation with his condition .
I have full support and confidence in all the staff and since one staff member in particular has taken over as manager the place has really improved.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
What an amazing place, the manager and all the staff there are wonderful and treated my husband with respect , changed his food if he didn't like it, talked to him to help his mental health. It's more like a family run hotel than a care home, if your lucky enough to find a bed there you will be happy,
for respite this was what the doctor ordered for us both. Amazing place!!
Reply from Dawn Cocker, Manager at Grove Lodge

As a volunteer with a voluntary service, I have set up a regular visit to the home with my registered therapy dog Maggie, a Golden Retriever. We were warmly received by both staff and residents on our first visit in January and hope to continue regular visits in the future.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.554)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.554) out of 10 for Grove 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 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 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 4.854 for Grove Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (71 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 82 Ratings = 4.854
  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 4.7 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Grove Lodge is based on 7 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 3.7
    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 19 registered maximum number of service users is 3.8, which has been reached with 7 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.
