Mum has been there since August 2023, she settled in very well and made friends quickly. The staff is very good and if I have a question or query about Mum they are always helpful and reassuring. I am very happy with Mum there and the level of care given to her.

My father has had 2 weeks of respite care in your care home at Bamfield Lodge, it's wonderful like a 4-star hotel. Clean, fresh and a positive supportive atmosphere. The care staff are very professional, caring and attentive. I would recommend any family if in need of this kind of home full-time or
for repsite. My father was taken care of very well, he loved the food and all the staff.

I find the staff friendly and always willing to help with any concerns I have. Mum is happy most of the time but thinks the staff are sometimes too busy, and they need more help. Overall we are happy with the current support to come up the only thing that is of concern is that car parking is very limited,
and we find it difficult to park some days.

Reply from Elena-Luminita Porancea, General Manager at Barchester Bamfield Lodge Care Home

The care team always go above and beyond for my nan!
The kitchen team are always asking residents to help plan the meals and menus.
Activities put in lots of effort to make the activities person-centred.
Management is keen to act on any worries brought to her and to put actions in place quickly.

Nice enough looking care home. The room facilities are very good. The garden could be better. Food is not the greatest. Some very lovely staff individually. However, the greatest problem here is that there is dreadful communication. Lots of different staff covering various shift patterns and the Manager
is always in a meeting, never seen her in 6 weeks of my Father being here. Yesterday my Father ordered his tea/supper. After 45 minutes of waiting, nothing arrived. They had forgotten him and he would have not eaten if we had not been there. Really is not the best value for money care home out there. I would not recommend it.

I immediately felt at ease when I dropped my husband off for respite care.
Spotlessly clean. Light and airy. Wonderful kind and friendly staff who listened to me.
Huge room with private shower room. Had TV and access to the garden
It was like a 5 star hotel
When I picked my husband up he said
he'd had a lovely week. Great food. Entertainment.
Not like any residential home I'd ever been in for sure!

I cannot fault the care and attention given to my brother in law when he was admitted into Barchester Bamfield Lodge Care Home in June 2022. He wouldn't walk, he didn't want to eat or drink - he was on end of life care. The carers really looked after him, spent time feeding him and getting him to drink.
They talked to him and gradually he became confident with them. I would recommend this nursing home to anyone, absolutely superb.

My mum has recently gone to Bamfield, I was nervous to put her in care but Bamfield has taken my nerves away, it is comfy and cosy with good staff who really care. I like her room and she has settled in nicely and made friends with the other ladies. I highly recommend it here. We watched the singers

On initial encounter, I felt some issues needed addressing, as I witnessed some rather alarming aspects to Mother's care. After informing the management, it was quickly nipped in the bud. After this everything ran smoothly with exceptional care/work from four carers in particular (x2 night, x2 day).
I felt that my mum was treated with dignity and would like to thank the staff, especially 'the 4', for their assistance in Mum's final days. Thank you.

I cannot praise or recommend this home highly enough. Mum has been at the home for over 12 months and is happy and contented this is due to the facilities, all the staff and the activities provided which mum so enjoys.

The staff and especially the nursing staff are excellent. They are caring and extremely compassionate. The father recently passed and the care he received was excellent. We were informed of any changes they always answered our questions. The compassion they showed was outstanding. There is nothing negative
about Bamfield Lodge I would strongly recommend it, it is high class.
My mother is also a resident there and the staff have been so caring towards her. They are all so calm, the way they talk to her is with the utmost dignity. They are caring towards family members and nothing is too much trouble. I know my mum is having the best care.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.611)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.611) out of 10 for Barchester Bamfield Lodge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.611 for Barchester Bamfield Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (210 Excellents x 5) + (54 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (11 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 280 Ratings = 4.611

  • b) 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 Bamfield 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:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 23 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
