Review from Peter A (Husband of Resident) published on 25 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife became a resident at Bucklers Lodge in February. For me to loose the love of my life to the care of professionals was a huge decision. I had been her carer for 3 years and it was beginning to take its toll on my own well being.
From the moment of her taking up residence
the relief at knowing
she was in such better hands than mine in her care and stability.
I have nothing but praise for all the staff for their understanding and patience with all the residents.
Above all my life has begun to return to a level of normality, mainly because of the knowledge that I have been usurped as main carer. Safe in the knowledge that my sweetheart is in the best of hands.
Thank you all the carers at BL.

My wife has been a resident at Bucklers Lodge for just over a year, it wasn't an easy decision for me to place her in care, but after caring for her for 6 years at home I realised I wasn't best person to provide all her needs, my wife is on the second floor, she has a lovely room with a pleasant outlook,
she is safe, warm and well cared for, she always looks well groomed and happy, everyone knows her and she is well looked after by all the staff, they all know her name and escort her to the various activities she takes part in, when I visit her she is very cheerful, one of the things she always says is "I like coming here, because everyone is so friendly, or it is very peaceful"
All in all it is probably the best decision I have ever made and I would like to thank all the staff at Bucklers Lodge for making my wife's life a little happier

Review from Sam D (Daughter of Resident) published on 31 March 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The most caring , clean environment for my mum who has Dementia. The ladies on reception are so welcoming which makes it easier for us on tough days .
My mum loves every single carer , as she has been there a while now they know how to manage her and keep her as stress free and happy as possible .
She genuinely is happy and the hallucinations that she was having at her own home stopped the day she moved into Buckler's .
I can ask all sorts of questions and nobody ever minds .
Everyone has made a really tough time a lot easier and I never have to worry about mum .
We cannot recommend Bucklers lodge enough . Genuinely kind people who look after their residents and families . Which makes it easier to chat to other families who are going through the same thing . What could've been a very lonely and frightening time has been made easier by these professionals who care and we will always been very grateful for so many happy memories at a very sad time .

My Mum has been a resident in Bucklers Lodge Since early Summer 2024 and we are very happy with the home.
My Mother is well looked after. The staff are always on hand with a smile and doing a great job.
Bucklers Lodge feels like a home from home.
The manager and her team do a great job at Bucklers

Have just completed the six-week trial period and have absolutely nothing but praise for the treatment, care and brilliant organisation we have met at Bucklers Lodge. The lodge itself is not only very comfortable, it has been decorated and furnished in a well-thought-out way, in the most excellent taste.
Our warmest congratulations to all concerned.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother went into respite for two weeks. I was very anxious as I had looked at a home for this purpose a few months ago and came away very uneasy and didn’t go through with it. From the moment I made contact to the moment I brought her back home has been made so easy for both of us. All the staff
are very welcoming, it has a lovely, calm atmosphere with good facilities. But most importantly, every single member of staff has treated my mother with nothing but kindness. Nothing is too much trouble, a cup of tea, a hug and a chat. Mum is inclined to get anxious and upset easily but there was always someone to sit with her and calm her. The care is exceptional and I feel very relieved that I know she will be safe, loved and looked after. Since she came home, she hasn’t stopped praising every aspect of the home. I will definitely be taking her there again. Thank you all.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I spent a long while researching and visiting various care homes in the area, and Bucklers Lodge came out way ahead of the others. It is modern, spacious, light and vibrant - not a word you would expect to relate to a care home. The management are effective and efficient, the care staff are diligent
and approachable. They take time to get to know the people they care for, and this shows in the way the whole place feels whenever I have visited. The amenities are first rate, the rooms clean and regularly tidied, and the whole place has a real buzz. This is mostly shown on the faces of the those who call Bucklers Lodge “home”. I try and make a point of speaking to as many other residents as I can when I visit, and the overwhelming feedback is very positive.

I came out of hospital knowing I was unable to care for myself. My son made arrangements and I came to Bucklers Lodge the following day. I was made very welcome and although my stable is only for two weeks my care has been good. The staff caring and fun. Entertainment enjoyable. Rooms pleasant furnished
and large. I arrived mere shadow of myself and left feeling almost normal. Thank you Bucklers Lodge .

Offers a warm, confident and competent welcome to new residents in a great environment. Care and support are excellent, and recognition of the emotional transition needs of a client, sacrificing their past to live in a new community, is compassionate. Care, activities and team are hard-working and thoughtful!

My nanny has been living at Bucklers Lodge since 2022. She was very apprehensive about moving into a care home, but she has been very happy at Bicklers Lodge and now thinks of it as home.
The home has lovely facilities, great outdoor space and fantastic views.
The staff are friendly, caring and welcoming.
We would definitely recommend Bucklers Lodge to other families.

My mother has settled into Bucklers Lodge very well, having been very resistant to a move into a care home. The staff have all been fantastic in helping her to settle and feel welcome. The facilities are great, with a cafe and cinema along with an arts and crafts room and library. My mother is usually
a fussy eater, but is enjoying the food which is plentiful. I would definitely recommend Bucklers Lodge.

I live in the northeast and visited my brother for two days in October. I am pleased my brother seems content in the care home and the staff have been very friendly and polite. My brother feels reassured this his safety is addressed and that he is given his medication. My brother is happy with support
of the staff, he has some hearing difficulties and so he values nice, clear speech. He recognises that he needs assistance for food sometimes to be cut up for him, This can be difficult for him. I am delighted that he seems so happy in this care home.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.504)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.504) out of 10 for Bucklers Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 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 4.754 for Bucklers Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (112 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 142 Ratings = 4.754
  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 4.75 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bucklers Lodge is based on 12 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 80 registered maximum number of service users is 16. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.75
  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.
