Court Lodge is a homely, welcoming and friendly care home. My mother was only there for a couple of months at the end of her life, but she was extremely well cared for. Her well-being and dignity were very important to the staff. They took time to discover her likes and dislikes and tried to accommodate them whenever possible. Court Lodge has a lovely garden and my mother found sitting beside the pond and water fountain very peaceful. The clinical staff always kept me informed when her state of health changed, and they appeared to have a very good relationship with the local GP surgery. I can't fault the care and consideration given to my mother, and to me, and I wouldn't have any hesitation in recommending Court Lodge to anyone looking for care for a friend or relative.
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry for your loss and appreciate your thoughtful words about the care your mother received at Court Lodge. It was a privilege to support her and your family during her time with us.

The staff are absolutely amazing - kind, caring, patient and respectful. What really stands out is how well they get to know each individual and tailor their approach to their personality, character and specific needs. Mum is treated as an individual, with genuine warmth and compassion, rather than simply being another resident.
Knowing that she is in such caring and capable hands gives our family great peace of mind, particularly when she is staying for respite. The team go above and beyond to make her feel comfortable, welcomed and valued.
A huge thank you to everyone at Court Lodge for the wonderful care you provide. We are extremely grateful and would wholeheartedly recommend Court Lodge to anyone looking for a caring, welcoming and respectful environment
Thank you for your feedback. We're pleased you are so happy with the care your mum receives at Court Lodge, and we appreciate your thoughtful words about the team's individual, compassionate and reassuring approach.

Thank you for your feedback. We're pleased you value the peaceful environment at Court Lodge and appreciate your recognition of the team's hard work. We're sorry to hear that the dining experience has not always met your expectations, and we will share your comments with the team.

My mother-in-law has been in respite for a several months at Court Lodge and is extremely very well looked after while still being independent . She is treated with kindness by all the staff. She can choose from the great selection of activities that she wants to get involved with. Meal times are always a great opportunity for her to chat with the other residents and enjoy the wonderful food. Knowing she is in a safe and supportive environment has been so reassuring and gives family members peace of mind.
Thank you for your feedback. We're pleased you are so happy with the care your mother-in-law receives at Court Lodge, and we appreciate your words about the team's support, the activities and the reassurance this provides for your family.

I arrived at Court Lodge after spending 2 days in hospital for a hip replacement operation. I was met by a nurse who took me to my room, helping me to settle in. I have spent most of my time doing my exercises, enjoying the lovely food and resting on my bed as instructed by my consultant. I have been aware of the good range of activities but not been able to enjoy many of them. I am now at the end of my 2 weeks of respite and will go home to be met by my daughter & son in law.
Thank you for your kind feedback. We're pleased you were so happy with your respite stay at Court Lodge, and we appreciate your kind words about the care, support and hospitality you received during your recovery. We wish you all the very best for your continued recovery at home."

Father has been a resident for just over a year and all staff worked hard to make him happy. He enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. The red shirts made every effort to include him in activities and walks in the garden. His lack of sight and hearing made this difficult. I cannot fault the care that he receives even now he is on end of life care. He and his room are always clean.
Thank you for your kind feedback. It was a privilege to have cared for your father and we're pleased you are so happy with the level of support your father received at Court Lodge. We appreciate your kind words about the care, companionship and dignity shown to him throughout his time with us.

I can't praise the home manager and her team at the excellent Court Lodge Care Home more highly. After being resistant to the idea of residential care in favour of remaining in her own home, Court Lodge has been a brilliant step forward for my mother. It is a warm and welcoming care home in a lovely setting with bright sunny communal areas and a well cared for garden. There are a huge range of activities to cater for a range of interests both in, and outside, the home that are run by the Companionship Team with thoughtfulness and enthusiasm. The Clinical Team are excellent, they liaise regularly with the local GP's and have kept me informed and updated with any health issues that arise. I have also been involved in meetings to establish the most appropriate longer term care plans for my mother with kindness and respect. I can honestly say my experience of Court Lodge has helped me as a daughter to feel supported and enabled me to enjoy my mother's company far more.
Thank you for your kind feedback. We're pleased Court Lodge has provided such a positive and supportive environment for your mother, and that the team's care, communication and companionship have brought reassurance to you both.

This is down to a variety of reasons, topmost of which has to be the superb care and attention to detail from the whole team - an amazing group of people who have always had a smile and are happy to talk and listen.
The whole ambience is so unlike other homes - it is friendly , cosy, spotlessly clean... in no way institutional. And the food is amazing! I would strongly urge anyone contemplating choosing a home fo themselves or a loved one to visit and see it for yourselves!
Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We're so pleased to hear the positive difference Court Lodge has made, and that your mother is so happy, supported by the team's attentive care, warm atmosphere and high standards throughout the home.
I feel very fortunate to be in Court Lodge and can't fault it in any way. I'm very happy here. Very good rooms. The staff are excellent. My husband was here before me and the care received was excellent, particularly when knowing the fact that most staff have been here for 20 years speaks for...

My husband was here before me and the care received was excellent, particularly when knowing the fact that most staff have been here for 20 years speaks for itself.

My Mum has been resident at Court Lodge for nearly a year. I now have peace of mind that she is safe, healthy and is being well cared for. I live very close to the home so can pop in whenever I like. What really strikes you when you walk in, is how friendly all the staff are. From walking in the front door to reaching my mums room on the 1st floor, I receive so many warm greetings. It's a very relaxed, homely atmosphere. I'm always offered a cup of tea and if I'm lucky a glass of Prosecco on occasions! From what I witness, the care is very good. The staff are polite and residents are treated with great dignity. One of the outstanding areas is having a team of staff dedicated to providing activities for the residents. My Mum chooses not to join in with much in the home, but staff try to encourage her or they take activities to her room. They even lay on weekly outings. Thank you to all staff for all you do. It's very hard work but you always do it with a smile
Thank you for your kind words. We're delighted to hear your mum feels safe, well cared for, and at home at Court Lodge, and that our team's warmth and dedication have made a positive difference. Your appreciation means a great deal to us.

There are not enough words to say how thankful I am to all the staff and care that Court Lodge showed my mum and me. The dignity, respect and love was everything. My mum became my mum again and I was able to spend everyday with her and our dog too. I will forever be grateful for those 7 months and...

My mother spent the last three years of her life at Court Lodge, and I am deeply grateful for the kindness and care she received there. Over time we got to know so many of the staff, and it was clear how much affection they had for her. The companionship team, carers, nurses and all the staff -...
As a family, we always felt she was safe, comfortable and truly cared for. The compassion shown in her final days meant more to us than we can say. We will always be thankful for the comfort and support they provided.

They have welcomed dad into their community making him feel cared for and safe. He has been a resident now just over a year and has had some challenging moments with his Parkinson's. The staff are always polite and friendly.

My mother moved to Court Lodge to be nearer family and for a better quality of care. She is transformed! She enjoys the activities each day and loves the outings in the mini bus; she is starting to read again and always looks forward to her meals. The warmth, care and encouragement she receives...
Court Lodge is well equipped, well maintained and with sensible but homely furnishings. Touches such as laying the tables for meals make residents feel they are welcome and encourage eating. The gardens are lovely and a calm space for residents to sit out at any time.

Every aspect of my care was attended to. The meals were the highest standard varied and delicious. The activities were fun and interesting and my medical needs were carried out efficiently and expertly. The care workers themselves were so happy and this spilled over onto those being cared for, nothing was too much bother and everything was done with a smile. It is impossible to emphasise how excellent this care home is.

Sheis currently struggling with accepting her own mental and physical deterioration. This means that she has displayed some difficult behaviour but the compassion and understanding of all the staff, particularly under the manager's leadership, is wonderful.
Both my sister and I live a long way from the home so having total confidence that all aspects of our Mum's care is exemplary is very reassuring.
Thank you
Thank you so much for sharing your feedback. We understand how difficult it can be to see a loved one go through changes in their health, and we're really pleased to know that we've been able to offer you and your family reassurance. It's lovely to hear that you feel confident in the care we're providing, especially from afar. Your kind feedback means a great deal to us all, thank you again."
