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.

It's a different life that I have been used to as I was living in my own flat and I have found it difficult to mix with everyone, but I have to and am doing so as I can't go back. I must look forward. All the staff are great and look in often as I am inclined to stay in my room.

Very hard to grasp as people came and went and soon found out no males to talk to, so I just had to push myself in with the ladies and even took exercises when no activity lady here, the ladies liked it.

When I dealt with the paper work for my dear mother in January I was treated very well, everyone that I met were very friendly. I am very happy with the care that my dear mother is receiving at all levels and to this day my feelings have not changed. When visiting you are greeted at the main door by a very pleasant young lady and you are given a Covid test before you may enter, if your test is negative then you are escorted to your selected resident. Briggs Lodge Residential and Nursing Home is a home to be proud of.

My relative took up residence just before the first lockdown so we cannot say too much about the running of the home as we have not been able to visit for much of the time. We have been in regular contact and have been impressed by the information, support and assistance the staff at Briggs Lodge have provided to the family as well as the care and attention they have given to our loved one.
I couldn’t ask for a kinder, more caring nursing home for my aunt. The interaction with myself is excellent and the staff go out of their way to help at all times. My relative is extremely comfortable and happy here.

All of the family is delighted with the care of our relative at Briggs Lodge Residential and Nursing Home. During the 18 months she has lived there, she has been treated with kindness and respect. The care, catering, laundry, and cleaning services are of an exceptionally high standard. My mother often says how lovely the staff are and is very happy. Briggs Lodge has worked hard, during the pandemic, to ensure contact with family is maintained by offering a range of visiting and virtual visiting options. We are very grateful that the care home has worked hard to keep us in touch. Finally, the accommodation and facilities are wonderful and have provided Mum with a lovely environment.
Thank you for taking the time to review Briggs Lodge and for your kind words. It is wonderful to hear how delighted you are with the care provided to your mother - it really is appreciated by our team. Best wishes, Fae.
After one year I decided her first home was not the right place. Searching, I came across Briggs Lodge,...
Mum passed away in her 100th year. If you are like us and having to make a hard decision – we recommend Briggs Lodge, Devizes.
Thank you for taking the time to write such a heart-warming review - your feedback and kind words are endlessly appreciated by our team. Thank you again.
I don't believe any care home will be as we first imagine - there are so many criteria to meet and satisfy, not least those of family members. Care and safety are for me the primary concern - if they are good, then my mind is at rest and my family member will be happy and as content as they can be...
I don't believe any care home will be as we first imagine - there are so many criteria to meet and satisfy, not least those of family members. Care and safety are for me the primary concern - if they are good, then my mind is at rest and my family member will be happy and as content as they can be in the home. Briggs achieve this with excellent staff and a listening approach. With so many individual needs to meet, I think they do extremely well, albeit it is difficult to measure during COVID when one is unable to visit inside the home.
Thank you for taking the time to review our home and for your kind words - they are truly invaluable to our team. Best wishes, Fae.
More space around bed would be appreciated. Footstools in the lounge too high...
Overall very pleased.
Thank you for your kind words about our home and team. As a new home, we are always eager to hear your feedback and I will most definitely pass this onto Graham and the team. Many thanks, Fae.
Staff excellent but constantly under pressure due to shortage.

Thank you for your kind words about our team - Graham is aware that there were a couple of days recently when the wheelchairs were being serviced/repaired but wants to thank you for bringing it to his attention further and for your feedback. Best wishes, Fae.
Staff excellent and extremely caring. Nothing too much trouble, polite and helpful. Food seems to be excellent. Room airy and light, with a lovely view of the gardens and surrounding trees. Briggs Lodge is a very nice residential home, but with insufficient parking for such a rural area.
