Since my mum has been in Tamarix Lodge for respite cste after major surgery she has come on leaps and bounds as she gets the best care possible from the whole team of staff. They are all very kind and caring . Mum gets along with all of them and the other residents. She loves the food and has an activity
daily . Her room is always spotlessly clean and tidy. The home always smells fresh and staff are very welcoming

My father-in-law went into tamarix in April I have seen a Hugh difference in him he was a man who just looked out of his window counting tractors every day. Since going into tamarix he has come out of his shell plays bingo,bowls,and other activities even baking. This is all thanks to the manager and
all the staff who do a fabulous job under difficult circumstances sometimes. Can't praise them enough would recommend them to anyone. There are not enough stars and five is not good enough.

I cannot praise Tamarix Lodge highly enough for the care and attention given to my mother in law since she went to live there 18 months ago, she is very happy living there and this is due to the constant care she receives by the manager and her team. I can highly recommend Tamarix to anyone thinking
about their family member moving in there, and feel lucky that there was a place available at a time when we needed it.

My mother has been in Tamarix Lodge for almost two years now and from day one has been made to feel welcome and included, as have my family and I. All along the staff have been very respectful and friendly to the residents and have always been considerate to mum's and the other residents' needs.
The Manager is very friendly, approachable and very much 'hands on' and always seen and available around the home which is something that is very important to me.


There are always plenty of varied activities to keep the residents involved and stimulated along with regular trips out for those who want to go and the way the staff go the extra mile when there is a special birthday or other celebration is second to none which is really lovely for all the residents. I am more than happy with mum being a resident of Tamarix Lodge and have no issues at all in recommending this lovely care home.

Reply from Ruth Mountain, Home Manager at Tamarix Lodge - Care Home

Love this home my dad was in this care home for 3 years and was well looked after in everyway. The staff cant do enough for the residents and its very personal. It is run by excellent management and carers. The home is very homely, clean and all residents seem well looked after and happy. The dad died
in 2023 during the night and made his last years very comforted. On this note my mum is now in Tamarix has she was well known to all the staff felt very at home to go into this care home. The management holds regular meeting with the families to make sure that they are happy with everything from food, hairdressers and personal rooms.

My Granny moved into Tamarix at the beginning of the year, it was a difficult decision and we didn't know what to expect but ever since she moved in, the care and support provided by all staff members has been exceptional. The management are fantastic and any issues are sorted promptly, they have not
only been supportive to my granny but to our family as well. The manager is a fantastic manager and she's got to know my granny really well, it put us all at ease with how kind and approachable she is, it's lovely to go in and have a chat with everyone. Special mention to another member of staff who goes above and beyond and has even helped my grandad out with things too! They've all got to know my granny very well and knowing how safe and well cared for she is, is heartwarming. All the activities are brilliant and the activity coordinators get everybody involved, it's lovely to see.

My dad is has been in Tamarix Lodge since April. He is a changed man since going in. Has had 2 hospital admissions since going in and the help and support from all the staff has been wonderful. Even we as a family have had such good care given. It's like he has a whole new family which is brilliant.

Cannot praise this home enough. Mam was in Tamarix for respite so was expecting to stay for a couple of weeks but ended up staying permanently calling it her forever home. She was very much against care homes so what a shock when she said she didn't want to go back to her own place but to stay where
she was. She very quickly settled in and got to know the staff as they did her. She said Tamarix was her home and that she felt safe there which meant a lot to us. The staff were friendly and caring and nothing was too much trouble for mam. She got her wish to die in her bed in her very homely room and we will be eternally grateful for all the love and care she received whilst in there. Would highly recommend Tamarix for a loved one.
Reply from Ruth Mountain, Home Manager at Tamarix Lodge - Care Home

Thank you so much for your kind review. It's incredibly meaningful to know that what began as a short respite stay became something so much more for your mam. For someone who was initially hesitant about care homes to come to see Tamarix as her forever home is a powerful reflection of the warmth and compassion shown by our team. We're so glad she felt safe, valued, and truly at home with us-it's exactly what we hope for every person we support. Knowing she found comfort, connection, and peace here, especially in her final days, is something we'll always treasure. Your kind recommendation means a great deal to us all. It was a privilege to care for your mam and we send our heartfelt thanks for your trust.

My mum was sent to Tamarix Lodge back in September 2024. After years of her telling us to never put her in a home, after a couple of weeks mum was saying she wanted to stay as she felt safe and had 24 hour care. My mum was a formidable character but each and every member of staff, from cleaners to management,
had so much patience and admiration for her and they seemed to love her like a member of their own families. And, more importantly, Mum loved them. Unfortunately Mum has now passed away and she was back in the home after spending some time in the hospital. It's where she wanted to be, asking to die there because it was "her home".
Reply from Ruth Mountain, Home Manager at Tamarix Lodge - Care Home

Thank you so much for your heartfelt words. We are truly honoured that your mam chose Tamarix as her forever home, especially knowing how uncertain she initially felt about the idea of residential care. It means the world to us that she found comfort, safety and a real sense of belonging here. Our team will be deeply moved to hear that their care and compassion made such a difference, not only to your mam but to your whole family. It was a privilege to support her and ensure she felt truly at home in her final chapter. Thank you again for your trust and recommendation its something we never take for granted.

Mum had a really bad fall and went into the care of Tamarix Lodge - Her care from the minute she arrived to the day she died was exceptional.
The team were caring, compassionate and thoughtful - the lodge itself was spotless, the food excellent and Mum always looked cared for and well presented - right
till the end.
The manager went the extra mile for everything and nothing was too much trouble.
Thank you for helping make her final months as comfortable as she could be.
Highly recommend.

Exceptional care, she was welcomed to Tamarix Lodge to a glass of whisky and her favourite soup. Sadly, Mum passed away after a matter of weeks. The manager was happy for her to remain at the home during the end-of-life journey and the team leaders were incredible making sure she got the care she needed.
The staff were knowledgeable and caring and treated Mum with dignity and respect. When we visited, she was comfortable, clean bed, and fresh clothing and watching her favourite TV. They went above and beyond to get to know her. The team and managers put us at ease and we were confident she was safe and receiving the best care. We are extremely proud of the work they do and everyone was so friendly and helpful. The staff are dedicated and caring people. They listened, they were responsive and nothing was too much trouble. Mum was lucky to be in a care home that demonstrated compassion with great leadership and teamwork. From the bottom of our hearts ‘thank you’ for everything.

I cannot fault either the care home or the staff. My mum has been a resident since August, and I can honestly say she is well cared for and is treated with dignity. All the staff are lovely and very caring. Her room is lovely and caters for all her needs. I feel very happy, as I know my mum is happy
living there.

My mother is 96 years old and has been a resident of Tamarix Lodge for 30 months, throughout this time she has enjoyed the best of care in all areas that come under the umbrella of the word care.
The staff are, at all times, caring, attentive and professional. Management has created a warm and welcoming
atmosphere that encourages the taking part in the many activities provided for the residents.
My mother often remarks positively about the meals provided and the choices available.
Congratulations to all and thank you.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.981)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.981) out of 10 for Tamarix Lodge - Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.981 for Tamarix Lodge - Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (153 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.981
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Tamarix Lodge - Care Home is based on 13 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 37 registered maximum number of service users is 7.4, which has been reached with 13 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.
