Braeburn Lodge

Braeburn Lodge is always a happy, friendly place. The staff are friendly and helpful and care for the residents brilliantly. I have never been there when there has been a negative feeling. The home is very clean and the residents have plenty of things to do and all look happy.

100% recommend.

I have been very impressed with Braeburn Lodge Care Home each time I've visited my aunt. It seems such a cosy and caring home with a lovely atmosphere of unhurried and kind efficiency. There’s a big kitchen in the centre of the home with a large farmhouse-style table where, I understand, residents gather to share mealtimes. My aunt says she’s very well cared for and she certainly appears happy and settled which is wonderful and a relief for the whole family. Thank you, Braeburn Lodge, for all you do!

I recently visited my Great Aunt at Braeburn Lodge Care Home and was impressed by the home which was clean and lively, the staff and manager were very helpful and friendly. She is well looked after and is very happy there.

I'm very pleased to have my mother in the care home, she is happy and cared for. We can all sleep at night knowing our mother is in excellent care. Staff are friendly and kind and we are grateful for all of the support.

Great staff very welcoming.

My mother has been at Braeburn for five years now since it opened. We have been so pleased to have found this care home. The staff have always been so attentive, friendly and caring. They are always doing things with the residents and keep them entertained. The home is clean, warm and comfortable and the rooms are a good size with good facilities. She always enjoys the food and is as happy there as she would be anywhere. Very grateful for all the care they give to my mother.

Excellent care home. The staff are always helpful and friendly. Mum is always treated with care and respect. The staff go above and beyond our expectations to ensure that Mum is happy, well cared for and can join in with the activities and outings.

Mum-in-law has been a resident at Braeburn Lodge Care Home for a number of years now and we are still delighted with the care that she receives there. The manager and staff are all wonderfully caring and do their utmost to ensure Mum’s happiness and healthcare are a priority. We are kept fully informed as to how she is doing and are fully involved in any decision-making. The quality of food is excellent and the garden is an absolutely delightful asset - small things really but very important to Mum. We still have absolutely no regrets over our decision to choose Braeburn Lodge for her care and enjoy being involved with all of the social occasions too!

This care home is exactly that, a home that cares. My mother has been here since it opened nearly five years ago. The care and love shown by the staff is genuine as is the welcome members of the family are greeted with when arriving for a visit. The home is clean and fresh. Meals are cooked on site and always smell delicious. I am always kept informed of anything going on with regards to my mother and I feel I can raise any problems I might have with the staff. There are a variety of activities laid on for those interested in joining in. Also if I arrive during these activities I am welcome to join them as well. The garden is colourful and the residents are encouraged to sit out on warm days and get involved with the summer planting. This care home in my opinion is second to none and I am delighted with the care my mother is given. I would wholeheartedly recommend going and having a look for yourselves.

We were struggling at home. Thank goodness we found Braeburn Lodge. My mother, now 92 years old, has settled really well into the warm, caring, homely environment, enjoying the activities and crafts. It's all down to the staff who show respect and fondness for the residents and cater for their individual needs, which can be a challenge I'm sure. Led by their excellent manager and senior staff. Well done, keep going and thank you.

Extremely happy we found this home for my grandmother, through word-of-mouth recommendations. I and my family were anxious about putting my grandmother into care. After our first visit, I could see how amazing the staff were. I felt so welcomed and reassured. The staff go above and beyond and always make sure we are comfortable when visiting. The food is fresh and looks delicious. my grandmother is so happy and enjoys all the activities. We enjoy seeing on the social media page, especially when we can't always visit it reassures us she is having a good time and kept busy! Previously working in an elderly care home myself I understand how important communication and quality of care are, I really cannot fault it and I wish all care homes were as good as this one. Thank you for looking after my grandmother Braeburn Lodge!

I am happy with my mother's care at Braeburn, although because of the pandemic, it is difficult to do a detailed review. The management are very helpful, especially the manager. They communicate well. The staff are friendly and caring. Most of all, my mum is settled and happy there.

My mother in law has been in Braeburn Lodge, for 7 weeks now. She is absolutely loving it. She has settled very well. All the staff are lovely and very dedicated to the residents. Care is very good and so are the meals. It certainly is home from home. Residents are being treated with lots of respect. Would certainly recommend this care home.

My mum, who has Alzheimer's, has been living at Braeburn Lodge for over a year now and the care she receives there is wonderful. They always have so many different activities and outings for mum to get involved in. She has made some lovely new friends (both other residents and staff members) and is enjoying day-to-day life. The staff keep myself and my sister updated and involved in mum's care. It was very difficult to come to the decision that we needed to find a care home for mum, but Braeburn Lodge made mum feel so welcome as soon as she arrived. She quickly settled there and now regularly tells us how much she enjoys being there. I feel so reassured that mum is happy, well cared for and safe.

During the last difficult months of Covid, the staff have managed all the ever-changing guidelines and kept the residents safe, whilst supporting families who were unable to visit. Now that visits have started again I am always greeted with a smile. They are all amazing.

We feel so lucky that Mum lives at Braeburn Lodge.

Mum is happily settled at Braeburn Lodge. She loves the food, staff, the ducks in the garden and her comfortable room. The Braeburn staff have been very caring to mum and the wider family. Braeburn Lodge feels more like an upmarket guesthouse than a care home. So clean and fresh, the staff always helpful. It is very reassuring for us to know mum is so well looked after.

Braeburn Lodge is a wonderful care home that feels like a family home. The kind and caring staff couldn't do enough for my Mum, who due to her dementia, could be difficult at times. The home was always spotlessly clean and there was always some sort of entertainment going on when I went to visit.

Braeburn Lodge could not have looked after my father better. He had severe dementia and he was extremely happy to be at Braeburn. I cannot praise the staff highly enough for the way they cared for him, from the day he arrived until his passing, which they dealt with in a professional and sensitive manner. The staff are excellent, caring and compassionate. They go above and beyond to make sure that everyone in the Braeburn family is happy from the residents to their families. Even though this is a small care home plenty of entertainment and activities are provided to engage the residents. They have done a marvelous job during the most testing time that we have all had to endure under the COVID-19 restrictions. They took early action to ensure their residents stayed safe.
