Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Shelburne Lodge is a caring, warm and supportive home. All the staff are kind, respectful and go above and beyond to support you and your loved ones. In the two and a half years that my mum was there, most of the staff still remain, with very few agency staff. The surroundings are beautifully kept,
the garden is tranquil and a little haven. The visitor areas are clean and comfortable, with refreshments provided for free. The communication from staff was very good, and we were always kept up-to-date on mum's wellbeing. It was always a pleasure to visit mum at this lovely home and we are so blessed that mum was surrounded with these lovely, caring people in her last weeks and days, the staff not only made mum as comfortable as possible but supported us through this difficult time.
I would not hesitate to recommend this nursing home anyone. Thank you for everything

Is the £600 taken for extra care never given a scam which I paid £100 extra for extra care for my friend which he never had not even any care. When he fell at 6pm in his room carers put cushion under his feet and left for 3 hours, no-one came in once to see if he was ok. He rang me every hour 7pm 8pm
9pm struggled to get into bed.
Will make a formal complaint to care Quality Commission requesting they do a spot inspection on Shelburne Home as Residents are not getting right care.
Reply from Feedback Team, The Feedback Team at Barchester Shelburne Lodge Care Home

Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. We're sorry to learn of your concerns regarding your friend's time with us at Shelburne Lodge. The fee was discussed and agreed with yourself and your friend before their stay and no additional fees were charged, so we're sorry if there has been any misunderstanding. Sadly, we had to call Emergency Services and their advice was not to move your friend, so staff made them as comfortable as they were able while waiting for an ambulance and stayed with them throughout and completed well-being checks. We understand that yourself and your friend had a great relationship with the home and that you intend to bring your friend back to the home to visit the staff, which they look forward to. Kind regards, Barchester's Customer Feedback Team.

My family and I cannot speak highly enough of **Shelburne Lodge Nursing Home**. From the moment we first visited, it was clear that this facility prioritizes dignity, comfort, and personalized care for its residents.
The carers, nurses, management team go above and beyond to ensure residents feel valued
and safe. They take time to learn individual preferences and treat everyone like family.
The home is impeccably maintained, with bright common areas, cozy rooms, and beautiful outdoor spaces.
The activity coordinator work tirelessly to keep residents mentally and physically stimulated. From arts and crafts to music therapy and gardening, there's always something happening.
The staff keeps families informed about residents' well-being through regular updates.
A special shout-out to one of the Nurses, one of the Care Practitioners, whose dedication and kindness made a world of difference for my mum. They consistently went the extra mile to ensure she felt comfortable and engaged.

OUTSTANDING CARE AND EXCEPTIONAL STAFF. I cannot praise the Shelburne Lodge enough for the outstanding care they provide.
From the moment my mum was placed, the warmth compassion and professionalism of the entire team have been evident. The staff truly go above and beyond, treated my mum as if she
was their own family. The carers and nursing staff both day and night shifts were always attentive, kind and ensured my mums comfort at all times. The Housekeeping team maintain a spotless and welcoming environment. The Head Chef always prepared delicious high quality meals for the residents.
The activities offered were engaging and of a very high standard, keeping the residents entertained and stimulated.
Management was always available and supportive. Myself and my entire family were all extremely grateful and highly recommend
The Shelburne Lodge to anyone seeking a compassionate and professional environment for their loved ones.

I cannot thank Shelburne enough for the incredible compassion and care they provided for my grandmother in her final weeks. From the moment she arrived, the staff treated her with the utmost dignity, kindness, and respect, making sure she was comfortable and well cared for at all times.
The team went
above and beyond-not only attending to her medical needs but also offering emotional support, companionship, and warmth that meant the world to both her and our family. They kept us informed, reassured us when we needed it, and created a truly loving environment that made an incredibly difficult time a little easier.
We will forever be grateful for the kindness and professionalism of everyone at Shelburne. They are not just caregivers; they are angels who provided my grandmother with dignity, comfort, and love in her final days. My grandmother's angels. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a place where their loved one will be treated like family.

We were sold a dream but bought a nightmare too many failings to list the only positive point to come from my mother's brief stay at Shelburne Lodge is that she is now free to pursue her dream elsewhere.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.450)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.450) out of 10 for Barchester Shelburne Lodge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.450 for Barchester Shelburne Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (241 Excellents x 5) + (28 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (31 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 307 Ratings = 4.45
  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 Barchester Shelburne Lodge Care Home is based on 23 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 51 registered maximum number of service users is 10.2, which has been reached with 23 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.
