Overall Experience

I cannot express enough the peace of mind and trust we as a family have in Court Lodge for looking after Mum when she comes for respite care. Not only do they care for their client, but they also care and respect their client's loved ones, always accommodating requests, excellent care, communication and reassurance. Above all, it's the staff's exemplary standard of care and approach to clients that stands out, ensuring whilst Mum can't communicate well, she is always included and respected. Mum is greeted like a family member, and there is a warm, inviting and caring atmosphere. Thank you to all the staff who make our visits to Court Lodge feel safe, cared for and respected.

Reply from Rebecca Hannam, Home Manager at Court Lodge

Thank you for your review of Court Lodge. It's wonderful to hear that you and your family find peace of mind when your mum stays with us. We are committed to ensuring that both our residents and their loved ones feel valued and involved in every aspect of care. And it means a great deal to know...

Overall Experience
Thanks for looking after my Dad so well in the last month of his life. He was happy there and felt very well looked after. The Manager was a Godsend to me. Her professionalism and warmth on a personal level, made it all much easier.
From my point of you, having cared for him myself for over a year, it took the pressure off me completely and in fact, the nurses reminded me to take some time now for myself.
I didn't have to worry about shopping, making meals, all the doctor appointments ( as the brilliant Dr came into the home), cleaning, washing, changing beds - anything - it was priceless.
I got to be Dad's daughter again for the end of his life and Court Lodge took over everything brilliantly, stress-free, and very dignified. A special thanks to the Nurse who always kept me updated on Dad's health.
Very central to Lymington and sea.
It is decorated beautifully, stunning garden, and is one of the nicest homes I have seen.

Thanks for everything you did for my Dad.

Reply from Rebecca Hannam, Home Manager at Court Lodge

Thank you for sharing your touching feedback about your experiences at Court Lodge. We are deeply honoured to have been able to care for your dad during the last month of his life, and we are glad he felt happy and well looked after in our home.

Review from Janie P (Daughter of Resident) published on 18 June 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
It was a hard decision to move my mum into a care home, she was very nervous about it and unsure that she wanted to go however, the minute she walked into Court Lodge, she has been made so welcome.
Mum absolutely loves every aspect of living here, it is so homely and friendly, she tells everyone she speaks to how lucky she is.
I am totally reassured by the regular updates from the whole team from how she has enjoyed the many activities provided to the lovely meals, she has actually put on weight since living there.
The nursing team are very proactive with regular care reviews and suggestions to keep her safe and well.
The home manager is very involved with the residents and always makes time to catch up with visitors.
One member of staff in particular, from the companion team ensures a wide range of events and activities which are inclusive for all, Mum particularly loves the minibus trips around the national park which bring back many happy memories.

Thank you to all for keeping Mum well and happy.

The staff are wonderful - patient, caring and kind. It was very reassuring to know that Dad was in such good hands. Nothing was too much and he couldn't have been in a better place in the last stages of his life. When he passed away a difficult situation was made much easier than it might have been by the professionalism and genuine concern shown. Thank you very much.

Overall Experience
Court Lodge is a lovely, friendly and warm home. All the staff are smiling and happy and nothing that I ask for is too much trouble.
Everyone, from the home manager, ably assisted her senior team, are very hands-on with what residents needs and cares are. The nursing staff are very good at keeping in touch with relatives and regularly reviewing a resident’s care and medical needs.
The facilities are very good and they can even accommodate special requests, such as a large room with garden access to celebrate my father’s 100th birthday last September, including a wonderful tea party and catering.
My father had tried another care home but this one is, without doubt, the best for his needs. Me, as his only child, feels very much that a great weight was lifted from my shoulders when he became a resident at Court Lodge almost a year ago.

Well done team Court Lodge and team Colten!

Overall Experience

My mother was a resident at Court Lodge for just over 2 years and in that time I can honestly say we never had a single concern regarding her care. All the staff were caring and competent and always willing to answer any questions we had. My mother passed away in the home in September and again I cannot fault the end of life care she received, we were always kept informed of her condition and nothing was too much trouble when we visited. I would have no hesitation in recommending Court Lodge.

Review from K N (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 June 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
After complications with heart surgery, a long stay in hospital and ongoing complex medical and physical needs, my 78-year-old father stayed at Court Lodge on two separate occasions in 2022 and 2023.
From our initial contact onwards, the team were understanding, responsive and very flexible. At a time of uncertainty with my father’s first hospital discharge, Court Lodge was able to provide a level of comfort and support so that when the move was finally possible, they were ready to welcome him.
Having access to a safe and comfortable environment, with qualified medical support on-site, was critical for us. Although well enough to leave the hospital, his severely depleted state meant that specialist care was needed that we were not qualified to give. Court Lodge offered us the optimal ‘bridge’ to get him better placed to return home.

At such a challenging time, the CL team were ever-present with a smile and kind word, going above and beyond to help us at such a difficult time.

Overall Experience
My father is a resident of Court Lodge in Lymington and in March he was 99.
The staff helped us to organise a special surprise tea, they provided all the food and cake, decorated the room and kept it all secret.
Dad doesn’t have many friends who are still alive so having a lovely group of special people to make such a fuss of him was really appreciated. It doesn’t feel like this is just a job for the staff. They really want to do everything they can for their residents.

They made the day quite unforgettable.

Overall Experience
Our 93-year-old mother went into Court Lodge to recuperate after hospitalisation following a fall in August 2022. Mum enjoyed it so much she decided to stay!
The manager heads Court Lodge along with others in Reception, administration, and the member of staff leading the red coats with a varied weekly programme of activities. Plus the happy team of nurses, carers, ancillary staff and catering team, and also the gentleman busy and cheerful in the lovely gardens.

All work very hard to support one another to ensure the best possible standard of care for the residents. It is a truly uplifting and dedicated environment with all colleagues working together to excel and perform above expectations.

Overall Experience

My mother who had oesophageal cancer came into Court Lodge Care Home for palliative care on 25/01/2022. It was then apparent to me that I had taken too much on looking after her in her own home. The feeling I had knowing that she was safe and well looked after was overwhelming. Mum was not a mixer, loved to chat to the staff who came to her. She was an interesting lady. Never moaned and always said thank you. Mum, despite just being on lemon water/sugar, kept defying the odds. She started to deteriorate after her 93rd birthday (17/06). The end-of-life care from then on was exceptional. She was never in pain, her anxiety issues were well managed. I, as a relative, was made to feel as part of her care team which was wonderful. Mum died peacefully on 07/07/2022. Thank you to the manager and to all the staff who work so well as a team.

Reply from Rebecca Hannam, Home Manager at Court Lodge

Thank you for your kind review. We are all really touched to hear that you considered your mum’s end of life care ‘exceptional’ and we miss you both! Do keep in touch.

Review from Julie R (Sister of Resident) published on 27 May 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I found the home to be well-run, the staff efficient, helpful, and kind, and the overall atmosphere seemed very positive. There were plenty of activities for those who wished to participate, including trips out. There’s a lovely garden, giving residents the opportunity to get outside. An advantage of the home is that it can accommodate those who need a rest home, and also those who need nursing care, giving the opportunity for residents to be able to stay there if their circumstances change.

I couldn’t be more happy with the quality of service and care given to my mother since she has been at Court Lodge Care Home. Her needs are met at every turn - from the food she needs to the thoughts ahead to end of life. As family members, we are well looked after and cared for at this difficult time too. A true five-star rating.

Review from Kate M (Daughter of Resident) published on 27 December 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mother joined Court Lodge Care Home a year ago.
This was a difficult decision to make.
Having said that, in the last year she has been so well cared for and has company 24-hours a day.
The actual care is excellent - from reception who are always helpful and smiley.
Nurses and health care assistants who are kind and professional.
Kitchen staff and waiting staff who provide wholesome food with encouragement and a friendly cuppa and a treat in my mum's room.
My mum's room is always immaculate and the laundry beautifully washed and ironed.
The grounds are well kept and residents encouraged to plant and water small areas and walk.
The entertainment staff are great, always enthusiastic.

Good communication from management which is vital.

Review from Sally B (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 September 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The team at Court Lodge Care Home could not have done more to settle in and care for my mother, who is 95 years old. She was a reluctant resident and it took a while for her to settle. Now she is very well cared for, has far fewer "crises" than previously, has made new friends and is enjoying the various activities on offer. She particularly enjoys the singing and the minibus trips out around the New Forest. The recent community singing by the bandstand was a lovely event and extremely well organised.
The staff are always professional and caring and keep a good eye on medication, hydration and diet - as well as general health. They are easy to communicate with and respond quickly to any worries. The Covid precautions have been sensible and pragmatic.

The gardens are a delight and are appreciated by both residents and their visitors. I do not think we could have made a better choice of care home.

Reply from Rebecca Hannam, Home Manager at Court Lodge

Thank you for your kind words about Court Lodge. We're all so glad you feel you've made the right decision for your mum, she really is a different person to three months ago and we're so pleased all the work we've put in to help her settle has paid off. Thank you.

Overall Experience

The manager and her team at Court Lodge really are outstanding. There is such a lovely atmosphere throughout the building and the care my mother-in-law receives is excellent. From the moment we phoned up to enquire about respite care, to this month when she has taken up a place as a full-term resident, the staff have been kind, caring and highly professional. The food is wonderful and there are lots of activities for the residents to take part in. My mother-in-law is extremely happy here. I would encourage anyone looking for a care home in Lymington for their relative or friend to make sure Court Lodge is on their list of homes to consider.

From the first call I made to Court Lodge, I was assured I was taking the right steps for my mother after a long stay in hospital. This has proved to be exactly the case and I have already recommended Court Lodge to a colleague.
The level of care, attention to detail and desire of the entire team to deliver dignity, warmth and compassion is extraordinary with laughter ringing out from the coffee room, dining room and garden on a sunny day.
My mother has enjoyed trips around the magnificent grounds in her wheelchair, having her hair washed, her nails trimmed and looks so pretty in her clean, freshly ironed clothes. The companions are full of joy, the nursing team is sincere and competent.

The menu is exceptional and all the food I have seen is fresh and enticing!
