From the 1st time of visiting this care home, we found the staff very caring, welcoming, helpful and friendly and over the past weeks, we've found them all the same. They treat residents with respect and understanding, helping where they can. Although busy when we call they do still have time for a quick chat, which is so lovely. Easy parking, bright and airy inside helps make this a lovely care home.

I spent 2 weeks in this home. The nursing/carers were kind and welcoming but they had no time to do their job - "to care". Some were good. Some needed more training in how to speak to people, how to behave and needed help with hygiene. My room was disgusting. The carpet was filthy, with huge black...
On a bright note, the independent team were excellent. I could write a book about it. The medication dispensing erratic and not always recorded.
I was very impressed by the care and attention given to patients by everyone. It was so clean and tidy I have never known my brother so content, as I have been so worried about him.
I myself have always had a dread of going into a care home (not anymore) and I would most certainly choose...

I found my experience at Barrington Lodge very good. All staff so very helpful and friendly. The facilities were excellent as were the rooms. The food and menu was also extremely good. Would recommend this rehab facility, giving me confidence for when I go home.

My mother was a resident at Barrington Lodge for just over two years. We were very happy with the quality of care she received. Staff were always pleasant, caring, sympathetic and considerate. Highly recommended.
