Windmill Lodge was home to my mum for the last 3 years of her life. I want to say the staff were amazing. They were far more than just employees they really cared for my mum and her two sons. By the end, they were like new members of her and our family. This was made even more obvious as the staff have remained so consistent during my mums stay, that you really got to know them as people. Mum bonded with the residents around here as she entered the twilight of her years, and I will be forever grateful for that. Please pass on my thanks.

I don't really have anything to compare with, so I'm not sure how useful this will be. My mother seems happy there. She gets fed regularly and seems to like it there, which is, of course, important. There is one resident who calls out a lot that she needs help and seems to be ignored. Probably because she is always calling out.

We were dreading our good friend leaving hospital and going into a care home but Windmill has exceeded our expectations. You can see the staff really care and they are always polite and professional. Our friend who is now resident has difficulty speaking but you can see he has no fear in his eyes. He has acclimatised to the home and you can see he is safe and contented. In particular, thank you to 5 members of staff and the rest of the staff on the 2nd floor.
