The team at Briggs Lodge share Sanctuary Care’s vision of Enriching Lives, which is centred around the six senses people need to be happy and fulfilled – a sense of achievement, belonging, continuity, purpose, significance and security. Following their Enriching Lives framework, staff work closely with residents to meet their senses and achieve their goals.
The home has beautiful spaces for the residents to enjoy, with a warm and homely feel. The spacious bedrooms have walk-in wet rooms. Some of the ground floor bedrooms have doors opening out onto the gardens.
There is a vintage tearoom, which has a balcony overlooking the gardens, where residents can enjoy tea and home-baked cakes with loved ones, who are welcome to visit at any time. And the garden room and library are also lovely spaces to enjoy.
The home has a cinema room, for movie nights and a hair and beauty salon, complete with a nail bar, for those who like a spot of pampering!
There are light and airy lounge and dining rooms, where residents can enjoy delicious home-cooked meals, prepared by the chef, as well as afternoon tea, with home-baked cakes served daily.
Outside, the garden is a lovely area to relax in, with wheelchair-friendly pathways and raised beds, for those who enjoy a spot of gardening.
Briggs Lodge is situated in the heart of Wiltshire, in the pretty market town of Devizes, with excellent transport links, it is a short walk from the local shops and a museum.

Ayelisha was a charming lady. To hand your wife over to Sanctury care after 59 years is beyond difficult. Bisi smoothed the way forward for which I thank her.

My dad has been here for just over a month now and he said himself "that we found the right place for him". We as a family thought that too having experienced others for respite stays - this has surpassed our expectations. The level of care is extremely good and it is consistently reviewed and involving us. There are always lots of visible staff who are always helpful. It is clean and comfortable and he loves the food. In previous homes he's refused to eat or come out of his room so it's lovely to see him integrated into the dining room and chatting with fellow residents. They have managed to keep him cool in this weather too. The activities lady, Caroline has been so welcoming and creates such a lovely atmosphere when mum comes to visit him. We put him here with a view to moving him closer to our home (30 mins drive away) but he likes it so much he will not now move. Can wholeheartedly recommend Briggs Lodge.
Thank you for sharing such heartfelt feedback. We're delighted to hear your dad has settled in so well and feels at home with us. It's wonderful to know he's enjoying the food, companionship and activities, and that our team has helped make this such a positive experience for your whole family. Thank you for your recommendation.
Lovely friendly professional staff. Would always recommend. I have always been impressed with them since mum came to Briggs but last night they were amazing especially Sanjay and Sophie. I was deeply touched Very professional and caring. You can be proud.

My mum has been at Briggs since February 2025 and the care she receives is great and she seams happy. Mum has made friends with the staff and also some of the residents. The only thing lacking is the ability to have trips out each month - I believe though a minibus is being sought!

Office staff are excellent and supportive
Some care staff are wonderful at their jobs
Lots of facilities available but rarely see anyone using them.
Gardens could be more colourful and would be nice to see more bird feeders around the property

Overall I have no complaints with Briggs Lodge, all the staff are friendly and attentive. We never had an issues with any aspect of my mother's care and only moved her to bring her nearer to my home, otherwise she would still be in residence.

The care provided for my husband has been very good. The atmosphere in the home is pleasant and everyone seems to be happy in what they do. The food is good and plentiful. As someone else has observed, a weak link seems to be in the relationship with the GP, and depends on the feedback between the home and the surgery. There can be long waits to get or change medication and depends on the Nurse Practitioner who visits once a week normally. Similarly, the HQ efficiency is poor. I still have not received a formal request for any funds three months into my husband's stay! One thing that could easily be changed is the very irritating 'phone system. I don't need all the advertising and would like to be able to talk directly to the home.

Friendly and helpful staff. Always seems to be clean and welcoming. The manager, deputy manager and staff are always helpful. Internal coordination and communication are occasionally not as strong as I would wish, but overall, very good.
