My 2 week respite stay was ideal - I received all the care and help that I needed and asked for. Did not feel that my husband received the close monitoring that I expected in view of his dementia. If he said he had had a wash or was dressed, it was accepted without checking. He wore the same shirt for
his final 3 days at Blakelands!

My husband has just spent 15 days in Blakelands Lodge. He has Alzheimer's and I needed a break. He has come home and although he cannot remember all the things he has done, he says everyone was very kind. He's had a lovely time, the food was good and he wants to go there again. All his clothes came
back nicely laundered so I haven't got any post holiday washing to catch up with. We will definitely use this home again so I can have a holiday.

My sister and I were very thankful to find such a good care home as Blakelands Lodge Care Home for our 93-year-old mother. As Mum needs 24-hour care, we needed somewhere we could leave Mum for two weeks respite care so we could have a break. We had complete peace of mind knowing that she was in a comfortable,
safe and secure place in our absence. We have no hesitation in recommending Blakelands Lodge to others who might have the same anxieties and worries in finding the best care for their loved ones. Mum has been in twice this summer and we will come back here again.

Mum has been at Blakelands Lodge a year now, and they arranged for a private “special wish trip” to feed the elephants at the zoo.
She was accompanied on the day by two carers, who looked after her needs superbly both in the wheelchair taxi and in the grounds of the zoo. Making sure she was comfortable
at all times and no doubt settling her back in at Blakelands Lodge at the end of the day, as to say she was excited would be an understatement!
They also arranged some photos and a radio interview on the day. Absolutely fantastic. Thank you Blakelands. You made her very, very happy.

Ten months on, and things are still going well. Today, my brother and I tagged along to a day trip organised by Blakelands. It was a once-in-a-lifetime trip for our mum to feed Elephants at Whipsnade Zoo. She looked forward to it for weeks and was over the moon today. She thoroughly enjoyed it, and
the staff from Blakelands were superb.

My mother stayed at Blakelands Lodge for a 4-week respite and she could not have been so comfortable and relaxed. When we dropped her off, she looked so nervous but when we picked her up at the end of her stay, she was in tears and so sad to leave. The staff at Blakelands Lodge made her feel so welcome,
accommodated her needs and she simply loved everything about her stay. The flexibility in visiting hours meant my siblings could visit her too and also spoke so well about Blakelands Lodge and its facilities. This has now become her ‘go-to’ respite home and she will be visiting for another stay in a few months. Thank you so much to all the care home staff. Her medication was handled also so well. Thank you all again.

I use Blakelands Lodge Care Home for respite care for a couple of weeks from time to time to give a break for my wife from caring for me (I have Alzhemer's) as well as a break for me!
The staff are absolutely wonderful and nothing is too much trouble. The food, although it might not be my favourite
every time, is always very well prepared and the chef very aproachable regarding the residents' preferences etc.
Overall if you need to go into a care home either temporarily or permanently I couldn't recommend Blakelands Lodge more highly.

Mum has been at Blakelands Lodge since August 2022 and we couldn't have wished for a more caring place for her to reside. The home itself is beautifully decorated, facilities are fantastic including cinema, library, games room, bar etc. The staff are caring and considerate and the atmosphere is of a
happy, friendly home. The activities team go all out to facilitate appropriate, fun things from crafts of all kinds to entertainers coming in regularly, individual time with residents and many more things, they also liaise with the local community to make the residents and the home part of this. Management and the front of house manager are always patient and polite with my queries or requests despite being very busy. I and the family are always made to feel welcome. Mum now has a key worker so we can, as a team, give her the best care possible. The food seems lovely and homemade cakes always on offer to visitors too. Mum is very settled there.

After Mum was recently diagnosed with Alzheimer's my brother arranged a viewing of the home initially as some respite. From the first visit of the home and then with the decision to make this a more permanent move for Mum's best interests we were instantly supported by the staff in the home with this
being a very tough decision to make. The home itself is beautiful with outstanding facilities that can be accessed by both Mum, myself, siblings and other family when visiting. Mum has now settled so well in the home and understands this is now where she lives and is very content in her new way of life and routines. She has also made friends with other residents and always talks about how good the food is and always talks about her favourite staff with glowing reports. Not only have the home supported Mum massively with this transition and meeting her daily needs they also support us as family, taking the time to check in on how we are and have a chat with us when we visit.

My mother moved to Blakelands Lodge a few months ago. The staff have been exceptional in every respect, caring for Mum, who has dementia. Staff are kind, caring and dedicated, and nothing is too much trouble. As a visitor, the warmth and friendliness of the home are immediately apparent. On top of this,
the icing on the cake is the first-class hotel-like facilities. Exceptional rooms, cinema, garden walkways, great food. Truly excellent in every respect.

We moved my mum to Blakelands Lodge in May 2022 just before her 91st birthday. She was the first permanent resident and it was by far the best decision we have made for her care.
We cannot fault the care that she has received. All the staff and carers have made my mother and our family so welcome.
When visiting we are always welcomed with a smile and everyone seems genuinely pleased to see us!
The facilities are fantastic and the decor is beautiful. As well as lovely ensuite bedrooms there are so many extra bits that can be accessed throughout the home for us to spend time with my mum in such nice surroundings.
As a family please can we take this opportunity to thank everyone at Blakelands for taking such good care of my mother. It is such peace of mind to know that she is being so well looked after in such a beautiful home.

From the first phone call to enquire about respite, we have received excellent advice and guidance. Now that care is being provided, we are amazed at the level of genuine warmth and affection staff have shown towards Mum. She has settled well, and we have peace of mind, knowing she is looked after 24
hours a day and every aspect of her care is considered. Staff have taken the time to get to know her as an individual and adapt to her personal preferences, giving her privacy or a friendly ear; whichever is needed on any given day.

From the day if my first visit to the Open Day I was totally bowled over by the care and attention to detail at Blakelands. The home has the feel of an expensive hotel or cruise ship which is so good for the morale of the residents.
Most impressive is the level of care and understanding displayed

Add to that the enormous sense of fun exhibited by the manager and you have the perfect recipe for success. Thank you.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother needed respite care for two weeks. From the initial contact by phone, Blakelands Lodge came over as friendly, caring and supportive.
The initial checks of weight and any bruising or bed sores etc came as a surprise but showed they wanted to care for Mum and make sure she was well looked after
during her stay. It gave me peace of mind. She was checked every hour, and they could tell me the time she got up, went to bed, what she had to drink and eat and when. Amazing.
Mum stayed in her room much of the time, her choice. She has dementia, is disabled and is deaf. Mixing with others is exhausting for her, so she avoids it. However, the room she had was lovely - like walking into a hotel room rather than a care home, but with all the benefits of the care home.
The staff, led by the manager, all care. They were lovely to Mum and very supportive of me, always having time to talk with me about mum. A very happy, lively and caring team.

Your immediate reaction is the wow factor, everywhere is so clean and welcoming. However, it is not the building but the staff that make this an exceptional care home.
Mum moved in May 2022 and settled in really well. I cannot speak highly enough of all the staff who show dedication, professionalism
and respect when dealing with residents and their families. I visit mum on numerous occasions each week and am always made to feel welcome and nothing is too much trouble. I constantly find mum happy and it is obvious that she has developed a trusting relationship with all those who work and care for her at the home. The home is well led and provides a stimulating environment in which mum is made to feel valued and loved.
Having cared for mum for the last five years I was very apprehensive about being able to find a suitable care home for her. I needn’t have worried, as after having done a lot of research into local care homes I can confidently say I found a real “gem” in Blakelands

My auntie stayed here for some respite. I only visited a couple of times, but on both occasions, I was made very welcome and felt my auntie was being well looked after! I was shown around the care home and was so impressed with the facilities, cinema, library, tea room with outside balcony, hair salon,
sweet shop, and cocktail bar, everything has been thought of to make the residents feel at home. All the rooms have different coloured pastel shade doors with numbers so they look like a front door off a wide corridor. There is no clinical look at all. All staff are very caring and give time to sit and talk with the residents genuinely interested in talking to them about their family and lives. I was able to have lunch there with my cousin and auntie which felt like we were in a restaurant! Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. The manager even took a photo for us and later came back with an A4 size print of it to give to my auntie for her room. I highly recommend Blakelands Lodge.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.924)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.924) out of 10 for Blakelands Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.924 for Blakelands Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (244 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 263 Ratings = 4.924
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Blakelands Lodge is based on 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 22 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
