Thank you for the continued excellent care of my father. I am especially pleased that there is now a Covid-secure heated pod, where visiting can continue to take place despite the current Covid-19 situation. I am very happy with all aspects of my father's care and am lucky that it is not far from where
I live, again making visiting easy.

My mother-in-law stayed here for 3 weeks, she wasn't coping very well during lockdown.
The staff here are amazing and gave 100% during turbulent times, they helped her get on track taking her medication correctly, eating good food, helping her get in a routine of daily life, which she had slipped
out of.
Overall she had a good stay and was well looked after.

All the staff are so professional and caring. Recently moved my dad here after respite care in 2 other homes. The care is 100% better than anywhere he has previously been. I feel lucky to have been able to get my dad here. The staff don't just do a job they actually really care about the residents.

This care home operates at a very high standard!
The home itself gives a feeling of calm and a relaxed atmosphere, whilst being very clean and very homely. The staff from top to toe were all very friendly and caring but above all very professional. I feel confident my husband is receiving a very high

During the four months mum has been at Bamfield Lodge, she has been treated with dignity, kindness and respect by all staff. I have been kept fully informed of mum's changing condition, and every effort has been made to enable me to visit her despite the challenges of Coronavirus. Whenever I speak to
staff, on the telephone or when I am visiting, I never feel rushed and always feel staff are willing to talk to me for as long as I need.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum spent the final eight months of her life at Bamfield, and I shall be forever grateful for the dignity and respect she was shown and the love and care she was given.
The home is clean, bright and cheerful throughout, and the facilities are excellent. The carers are so, so hard-working, yet nothing
is too much trouble for any resident.
Knowing how happy mum was, here, is very comforting.
I would also like to thank the unseen, backroom staff without whom Bamfield could not function - cooks, cleaners etc. And the admin and management staff who are so helpful and patient with us relatives and visitors.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum has been a resident at Bamfield Lodge Whitchurch Bristol for 4 years now she has always had excellent care and compassion shown to her during this time.
However, during the lockdown, I was very worried not being able to see her every day as I had previously done the home manager and all his
team have been absolutely fabulous they have looked after my mum so well they have washed and blow-dried her hair every week as the hairdresser is now unable to come in making sure she has her make up on and her jewellery every day as this is important to her my mum is in the later stages of dementia and her speech is going now but they have all done there best to make sure she's happy I call most days for updates and they always tell me how she is doing I do face time with her and have gone to the window to say hello I can honestly say the care she is getting is first-class I trust them and I am so very thankful for all the love and support they give to my mum I wish you to share this with staff.

We visited several care homes before we chose Bamfield and we knew it was 'the one' the moment we stepped through the door. The lovely welcome we got from the receptionist to the polite, happy fand friendly 'hellos' form other staff, we knew Mum would be happy and well cared for here. We had some early
issues but these were sorted quickly and efficiently by the administrator with a caring and professional approach. Thank you! We would recommend Bamfield Lodge to anyone looking for a care home for a loved one. It is wonderful and you won't be disappointed.

Mum has been looked after extremely well and appears to be very happy there.
Her safety was of the utmost importance to us as a family and this is certainly being catered for.
Maybe a bit more variety of food could be looked at.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.632)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.632) out of 10 for Barchester Bamfield Lodge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 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 25 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 4.632 for Barchester Bamfield Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (231 Excellents x 5) + (57 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (11 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 304 Ratings = 4.632
  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 Bamfield Lodge Care Home is based on 25 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 25 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.
