Harrogate Lodge Care Home

I can't explain how in just 200 words how grateful for the care I have received from everyone here during my short stay her after experiencing serious illness with my heart. I came to get physio as I couldn't walk and my goodness I cannot thank Olga and her team for the fantastic work she put into getting me on my feet and walking. I don't think anyone could be better. All of the nurses, day and night were brilliant no issue was too small for them, and the carers what can I say but so kind, going the extra mile with a smile. Care concern, friendship, the housekeeping staff, the chef. It says outside Harrogate Lodge is 'good' it really should be outstanding

We have a much loved, very sprightly, independent 94 year old. A much loved mum, grandma and great grandma who fell and was admitted to hospital. She was then transferred to Harrogate Lodge for intermediate rehabilitation. We weren't sure what to expect, but from the start, each member of staff has been delightful. They are uplifting, patient, attentive and respectful. Affectionate bonds have definitely been made, and this is down to the constant care and attention she's received. Now to the incredible physio team. They are encouraging, rewarding and whilst professional, they've been on this journey with mom and understood her frailty and concerns. With their help and encouragement, she's pushed herself and is delighted with her new physical abilities. The manager, doctors, cleaning staff and everyone else are always ready to help. Mum will miss them all, and we will remember them fondly with gratitude, especially Leesa.

They give the greatest care for my 92 year old father. They are all respectful and professional and tireless in their attention to his many needs. As a family we feel very fortunate that he was able to go to Harrogate Lodge for his care

absolutely good staff and place , impressive care shown and attention to residents' care needs. Staff attended to any questions and assisted liaison with medical staff when needed. The medical team was also very professional.

My Dad is currently a long term resident in the dementia care setting at Harrogate Lodge. He can have unstable mood, but no matter what his behaviour for the day is, he is always met with grace, kindness and care from the staff at Harrogate Lodge. They never fail to meet him on his terms, which is a very dark, dry sense of humour, and use this to help him feel at ease, and support him in his day to day needs. They treat Dad like a real person, and not just a number going through the motions. The transition to care at a relatively early age for him and us as a family has been very hard, but not only do all the team look out for Dad, they also support us as a family too. There's always activities and outings to be involved in, and treats, even with a tipple or two much to Dad's delight! The fact he's been able to keep as much dignity as possible in this journey has been lovely to see. We feel very Lucky to have found Harrogate Lodge.

Absolutely wonderful care home. Every member of staff is welcoming, professional and caring. Lots of activities for the residents to join in. The food is wonderful and the rooms are lovely. I'm so glad Dad got a place here, he loves it and we feel relaxed as he's getting the care he deserves.

I have been extremely impressed with the care I have received at the home. Anything I have requested has been dealt with as promptly as possible. Without using names, the staff have been absolutely brilliant and all done with a smile. I have also found plenty of laughter to lighten your time here.

I wanted to echo the many comments on here praising the care provided by Harrogate Lodge. My father lived at Harrogate Lodge for 18 months before he passed away in November. Throughout his time there, he received excellent medical care from kind and caring staff who genuinely looked after him with compassion and professionalism. What particularly stood out was the one-to-one attention he received, especially when he became very poorly. Staff took the time to help him with feeding and other personal care needs, never rushing and always maintaining his dignity. The attention to detail in every aspect of his care was evident, and it gave us great comfort knowing he was being looked after so well. The support extended to our family too. Staff were always available to answer questions, keep us informed, and help us through what was a very difficult time. The overall atmosphere was one of genuine kindness and care, which made an enormous difference to both my father and to us.

Excellent staff looked after Mum after a stay in hospital. Everyone here goes above and beyond to help not just Mum but Dad and all the family too. Sympathetic and treat you with care, kindness and dignity. All the staff's hard work made it possible for Mum to come home after three weeks. Huge, huge thank you xx

The outpouring of love from the staff for my father and towards the family meant so much for us.

Mum was given rehabilitation care here following a three week stay in Leeds General Infirmary after a fall and breaking her hip in May 2025. I have nothing but the highest praise for all staff and management at Harrogate Lodge. Mum was only in their care for three weeks, but it was excellent throughout. Her room was lovely and homely. The physiotherapy team were so kind and considerate to my Mum and worked really hard with her to encourage her to mobilise and recover. Knowing she was in good hands was a great comfort to me as I lived many miles away. All the staff were never too busy to communicate with me and always listened when I needed to change things slightly as time went by. Sadly, in spite of all the team's efforts, Mum didn't want to engage and was transferred onwards to a nursing home, in which she has since passed away. I cannot thank everyone at Harrogate Lodge enough for all the kindness, and support they gave me and my Mum during a very difficult and worrying time.

The loving care given was second to none. His stay was made so easy. Lindsey, Natalie and team have been great and nothing has been too much trouble.

Thank you for looking after dad.

The staff are great, the cook, the cleaners the nursing and care staff and anyone else I have forgotten. Keep up the good work.

My mother in law has been in this home for a number of years. She has had Alzheimer's for approximately 7 years. Her care at this home has far excelled our expectations. The staff, management, nurses etc are all excellent. They provide activities to keep residents entertained and cared for. The appearance may not be a 5 star hotel but the care is. When her first home said they couldn't meet her needs the manager listened to us, understood what my mother in laws needs were and saw that she was bored. They have continued to be brilliant with the family and her as a resident. I would recommend here for great care. They are walk, clean, well fed and entertained.

Don't be fooled by anywhere that looks like a 5 star hotel. Look beyond and see the care being given, it's what your loved one needs, not the furnishings.

I went to Harrogate Lodge for extra rehabilitation after a hip replacement because my mobility was very limited due to also needing a knee replacement in due course, I was very surprised as to how supportive and interested in my well being most of the staff were, they were a lot of long term staff who really enjoyed their jobs which made a stay here relaxing and made my recovery easier. If I need extra support when I have my knee done, I would hope to return to Harrogate Lodge. Knowing I will be looked after. Thank you so much to all.

My elderly mother spent nearly three weeks at Harrogate Lodge. Unable to walk when she arrived, she was very unhappy and scared; she was very quickly made to feel safe and cared for. Nurses ensured her pain relief and other medication was safely administered and Harrogate Lodge staff worked very well with hospital staff. She received a lot of physio and was soon able to walk again. All staff were kind, helpful and professional, they encouraged her to socialise and regain confidence, they were all delighted with her progress.

Very welcoming, staff are very helpful. Food excellent. Physio care excellent. Highly recommend.

I'm extremely likely to recommend Harrogate Lodge Care Home to anyone who feels they need full time care.

From the first welcoming phone call to our final farewell hugs! I could not have asked for more from every member of staff.
