My husband and I would like to thank the management team, and the entire team at Butterfly Lodge for the loving care and attention that they all showed my mother who, having been a resident for the last sixteen months, finally passed away recently. Her dementia had got progressively worse over time
and eventually, it caught up with her. The care that she was given and the kindness shown to me, towards the end, whilst I was with her, was exceptional and we can not recommend the home or the staff enough.

Thank you so much for your lovely review. We really miss your lovely mum.

I can't speak highly enough of Butterfly Loge. My mum (age 102 in July) has been a resident there since May 2022 and has always received the highest level of care from every member of the team. I would highly recommend Butterfly for anyone looking for a care home for their loved ones.

After experiencing a number of other care homes, finally, at Butterfly Lodge, we have found staff and an environment that we trust are very well-equipped to take care of our parent's needs. The team understand dementia well and are patient, caring and compassionate, also creative in stimulating and
entertaining the residents. Food also very good! Thank you all.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our mum has been here a few weeks now, having moved from another nursing home, this place is a home in the true sense of the word, warm, welcoming, with wonderful, caring staff and I mean the whole team. Our lives have been enriched from getting to know the staff and them getting to know our mum and
us, we can finally sleep at night, safe in the knowledge that our mum is getting the care we know she needs. Alzheimer's is a dreadful disease and it has impacted the whole family but Butterfly Lodge has finally given us the peace of mind we so desperately needed for our mum. We never worry about asking things and discussing them with the management team who always welcome us warmly, always a smile and a friendly greeting. What a joyful place this is. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The food is fresh and wholesome and always prepared and served with a smile. The nursing staff are well-trained and exceptionally caring. This place is outstanding in every way.

Review from Diane H (Regular Volunteer) published on 23 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am most impressed about the very caring culture of staff in Butterfly Lodge. Their skill at managing difficult behaviour. Everyone, from the cleaners, the laundry workers the handyman etc., has time for the residents. The care staff are very busy but still make time to listen and show interest in
everyone. All of the staff know every resident well, their personalities, their likes and dislikes as well as their backgrounds and previous lives. Which means they are seen as whole persons and not just how they present under the effect of dementia. I work with the activities team who take people out whenever they can and if not, find things to do indoors. Special dates are marked, for example at Valentine's, a meal is arranged for them with their partners and the tables are laid up like a really nice restaurant. Burns night will involve a Scottish piper and haggis for dinner etc.
I love helping out here and really enjoy the time I spend in Butterfly Lodge.

I would like to thank the management and the staff of Butterfly Lodge.
We had to move Mum from a nursing home in 2024.
Since being at Butterfly, Mum is walking on her frame.
Mum is doing and enjoying activities daily with some fantastic staff and volunteers.
Mum is less agitated, less bored and
being cared for.
On my visits to Mum, I find every member of staff so caring and supportive to the residents and the relatives that visit.
The home is kept absolutely spotless.
I absolutely love that the home takes the residents out on the little minibus that is funded by raising money throughout the year.
How fantastic is that?
Thank you all for being there for all residents and families.
I would recommend Butterfly Lodge to any relative that needs to put a loved one into nursing care.

The care/nursing staff are all so very friendly when I visit and treat Mum with a lot of care and compassion. When Mum hasn't been well, I always get a call to inform me and one to update me on how she is doing, I could not have asked for a better care home for Mum to have been placed in, keep up the
good work.

My mum has dementia and has been a resident at Butterfly Lodge since 2024. She has flourished since living here. We were really struggling, as a family, to meet her needs at home but since moving here, Mum has received the absolute best care, round-the-clock care, regular updates from all the staff.
There's always a friendly face when we visit. Highly recommend.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father has received excellent care over the past couple of years. He is treated with patience and kindness by all of the staff at the home, who work hard looking after him. Especially now that he has mobility issues and has to depend totally on the help of the carers. He really enjoys the food and
often tells me that it is very tasty. His room has been kept spotlessly clean and tidy, as are his clothes. Each week there is either entertainment, singalongs, pampering sessions or trips to the memory cafe. I am kept informed of any changes to his health by the excellent nursing staff who are always on hand.

Excellent care and compassion at all times. Dad was so well cared for and us, as a family.

At end-of-life, he was treated with such dignity and respect and we will never forget that.

My wife came with a few health issues when she started living at Butterfly Lodge on the 17th of September 2024. The care she has received since has been outstanding and the health issues are showing signs of improvement every day. All the carers and management staff are so helpful with any questions
that I might seek answers to. The whole building is spotlessly clean and there is a weekly programme of activities in place to stimulate the clients and everyone is well looked after. I cannot think of a single negative issue to highlight, I'm so happy my wife is living there, I can visit at any time and that also applies to friends and family.

All staff are caring and friendly. Always go the extra mile for residents and residents' families. Management is very approachable. Residents are well cared for. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Food extremely good. Outside grounds and garden are tended and well-kept. A slight hiccup with activities
or lack of due to staff shortages recently but overall, residents enjoy off-site activities such as the memory cafe, pub visits and garden centres etc. As well as singalongs, pamper sessions and well-being activities in the home. Visiting singers, visiting animals, baking and Christmas wreath making etc. Overall, an excellent care home.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.891)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.891) out of 10 for Butterfly Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.891 for Butterfly Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (286 Excellents x 5) + (35 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 321 Ratings = 4.891
  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 Butterfly Lodge is based on 27 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 38 registered maximum number of service users is 7.6, which has been reached with 27 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.
