Review from Lisa R (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Brook Lodge has been excellent at looking after my dad who was there over the past 6 months. My dad received wonderful care and was treated with respect and he was relaxed and comfortable there. It gave me so much reassurance that dad was in the best possible hands in his final months. The home was always warm, clean and welcoming. The food was very good. I would like to say a big thank you to Clare and Elliot for all their care and also for their support to me. Thank you.

Reply from Amita Patel, Manager at Brook Lodge

Thank you for your beautiful words. It was a privilege to care for your dad, and we are so pleased that we could provide comfort and support to both him and your family. Your kindness means a great deal to us, and we will be sure to share your thanks with Clare, Elliot, and the team.

Review from Nikki S (Daughter of Resident) published on 26 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My Mother moved into Brook Lodge in Jan 2024 following a fall at home and remained there until she passed away in January this year. Mum was initially reluctant to move into a care home and could display challenging behaviour at times along with her advancing dementia, but all the staff showed incredible understanding and patience with her and really supported her needs . This was particularly important to both myself and my sister that live at a considerable distance but everyday when we phoned to check on Mum we were always greeted with kindness and a wonderful update on how Mum' day had been .
The support also extended to us in the last few days of Mum's life was nothing short of fabulous and as a family , we all felt very cared for.
Jacqui, Clare ,Elliot and all the wonderful staff made Mum's time there very happy, comfortable and safe .

Highly recommend

Review from Darren M (Son of Resident) published on 14 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My father moved into Brook Lodge a number of years ago as a result of dementia. He passed away a week ago.
During his time there I always had full confidence in the care provided by the management & staff at all levels. I always found him clean, well-fed & them knowledgeable & confident about his care needs.
The unit had a jolly atmosphere with varied activities; there always seemed to be something going on.
As is often the case with dementia, my father suffered a challenging end during his last months. The management team, Nicki, Jackie & Elliot, were fantastic in the way they orchestrated his care, constantly adjusting his routine to accommodate his changing needs, while always updating us with appropriate advice.
Knowing your father is about to pass is never going to be easy, but the staff couldn't have been more helpful towards the end. They fed & watered me during the last 30 hours I sat with him, doing their best to make him as comfortable as possible.

Highly recommended!

Reply from Jacqui Jolin, Area Support Manager at Brook Lodge

Overall Experience
My Dad has been a resident in the Lotus unit at Brook Lodge for 3 yrs and I cannot express enough my thanks for the care that he receives. I find all the staff friendly and caring, they treat my Dad with respect and kindness.
The management team keep me updated at all times and are available to talk to me when I visit. I never have to book to speak to management or to visit my Dad, There is always a friendly welcome.

The biggest blessing I have is not having to worry about my Dad as I know he is settled, happy and looked after.

Overall Experience

My dad absolutely loves it here - he calls it home, which says everything. The staff are kind, patient and genuinely care about the residents. They take time to get to know everyone and always make sure Dad feels comfortable and included. The home itself is clean, welcoming and full of warmth. It gives me real peace of mind knowing he's safe, happy and so well looked after. We're really grateful for everything the team do every day.

Reply from Jacqui Jolin, Area Support Manager at Brook Lodge

Thank you for your wonderful review, it is a pleasure and an honour to be able to make a difference to our residents lives. We strive to ensure that the care we provide is person centred, with the needs and choices at the forefront of everything we do each day. Kindest regards Jacqui

Overall Experience

After mum broke her hip she ended up at Brook Lodge. From the first moment we met the team they all were excellent. Mum had some trouble settling in but this was dealt with kindly by the staff. She is now happy and content. Dad is able to visit frequently and as a family we can be assured that Mum is in the best place. I can't praise the professionalism and kindness of the staff enough.

Reply from Amita Patel, Home Manager at Brook Lodge

Dear DesThank you so much for sharing your experience and we are very fortunate to have a very kind and dedicated team who take great pride in caring for your loved one ensuring that they are supported and treated with kindness, dignity and respect.

Review from Emma L (Daughter of Resident) published on 10 December 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My stepdad went to Brook Lodge for a dementia assessment for a total of 12 weeks. The kindness that they showed him and how they looked after him went above and beyond. The support they gave to my mum and myself was so helpful we cannot thank the team enough.
Day one was tough but we slowly got to grips with everything and they were hugely patient. He settled in well and took part in activities that are regularly laid on. He is also a bit fussy with his food but he ate very well and enjoyed his food.
They have extensive knowledge of dementia and Alzheimer's and treat residents with dignity and respect. This is a special skill as I have (especially in hospitals) witnessed carers who get annoyed at the repetitive nature of the illness. No one is made to feel silly and they are just so patient with what is a very stressful and difficult job. We are so grateful.

We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Brook Lodge and when respite is needed will definitely be back.

Overall Experience
Brook Lodge Lotus unit has a family atmosphere "it's a home for the residents, not an institution"

This is reflected by the individual care provided to my mother. Contact with the unit manager has always been positive, going above and beyond to act in my mothers best interest, observing mums likes and dislikes. My mother's safety and happiness are paramount and I am grateful that this is provided.

We have been very pleased with the way our friend has been treated whilst in residence. Have always had rapid responses to enquiries about my friend who is a resident. He is only there awaiting a permanent residence but has always been treated with dignity and respect.

Overall Experience

My stepdad is brilliantly cared for at Brook Lodge: he is happy, content, healthier than he has been for a very long time, and he is very fond of the staff who build personal relationships with him. How good Brook Lodge is was born out again recently when my stepdad had his 80th birthday. The staff arranged a safe and secure room for us to celebrate his special day. This room was beautifully decorated with banners and balloons, there was a lovely afternoon tea and a birthday cake baked! It was wonderful. All staff had spent so much time, alongside regular duties, preparing and then hosting us with the additional safety requirements of the present time. We were overwhelmed, and so was he! We cannot thank Brook Lodge enough for everything they continually do to provide above and beyond care.

Reply from Jacqui Jolin, Operational Lead at Brook Lodge

Overall Experience

I am very impressed with the care and compassion shown to my friend. He has improved more in the last few weeks than previous home. Because of his frustration at needing care after a stroke, he can be very difficult but the carers are very patient with him. Thank you all for helping us to get some of his independence back again.

My mum came to this care home Brook Lodge over two years ago. She loves it here all the carers are good to her nothing is too much trouble. She loves the food, all home-cooked and I would give this home 10/10. They do lots of activities to keep their minds active.

Overall Experience

The staff work hard. Some give that extra bit of dignity as well. The staff are always welcoming and the manager informs as well. Mum loves the activities that are provided on top of the care. I was mums part-time carer and home support but not as well myself and mum worsened. I am happy my mum is in Brook Lodge it's nearby where I live. The laundry mum says gets confused and she worried it goes missing but it's labelled. Mum enjoys the care home and they have helped mum feel less anxious and I am 100% happy.

All the staff we have encountered have been genuinely caring. Mum has improved less anxious due to the excellent quality of care. Mum is able to walk a few steps with a frame, which she wasn't able to. The activities within the home and made friends. Mum has allergies and the staff have gone out of their way to ensure she has a good choice of food.
