Mum is very content living here, she says it couldn't be bettered. Our family is reassured in the knowledge that mum is being cared for by wonderful staff.
Thank you for your review and positive feedback. We're so pleased that you have chosen our home for Mum, she is a delight to have around and we are equally as thrilled to have her residing with us, a true part of the Merceode Lodge family!
My mother stayed at Merceode Lodge for 2 weeks. All the staff worked very hard to please her and were very friendly. Caroline is an amazing senior carer. The managers were very helpful at all times. Thank you.

Wonderful location with a beautiful garden. The care home itself is immaculate with lovely rooms. The staff are extremely caring and attentive. I visited my father for lunch which was delicious. The facilities are numerous including a hairdresser and chiropodist that come and visit the residents

I cannot recommend Merceode Lodge highly enough. The home is immaculate and provides all the facilities you could possibly wish for your loved ones but more importantly every member of staff is invested in treating the residents with dignity and respect. In the short time my father has been in their care he has shown great improvement in his well being. Nothing is too much trouble and I can sleep soundly in the knowledge that he is receiving excellent care throughout the day and night. I visit daily and have witnessed the efforts that the carers, admin and maintenance staff put in to ensure the residents are happy and settled. The food is excellent and I've frequently seen the chef checking in with residents and guests to make sure they are happy. It is more akin to a five star hotel than a care home. It's a difficult decision to make the move into residential care but I am personally most grateful to all the staff who work so well as a team to meet my father's needs. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your positive feedback! We are delighted Dad has settled in so well.
I was able to have lunch with him and it was a really nice way to spend time with him. I have a food...
The staff I encountered on my visit were friendly and helpful this had contributed to my friend very quickly feeling comfortable and at home in his short stay environment.
Thank you Janet for your positive feedback, it is much appreciated.

We were able to go on holiday and leave mum at Merceode knowing she'd be well cared for. Merceode Lodge exceeded expectations. Mum had a wonderful time in respite care. I would happily recommend Merceode Lodge. The team are excellent - Mum was safe, well cared for, entertained and enjoyed fantastic food. I can't thank the whole team enough- from management, catering, cleaning, to carers - all wonderful. Thank you.
Thank you for your feedback which will be passed onto the team!

Today I visited a friend who is one of the first residents at this absolutely beautiful Care Home. I have visited many times and have always been greeted by superb staff members who immediately make me welcome, offer refreshments and take me to where I always find my friend seated companionably with other residents in one of lovely cosy common areas. Today I had lunch with her which was very good and beautifully served in the dining area - I always observe that the carers show kindness, patience and respect to the residents.
The first time I visited this Care Home I was amazed at the facilities which I can only compare to a five star hotel. My friend's suite is superb, and of course is spotless, and she has the benefit of French doors looking on to a lovely garden. Sadly my friend has dementia and it is such a relief to know that she is safe and is receiving much kindness and excellent care.
Thank you so much Carole for your positive feedback. We are proud of the Merceode Lodge team!
My friend seems happy and the staff were really lovely to everyone. We had lunch and it was really lovely and they did everything to please us. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a care home

My mother is still living independently with carers, but I recently visited Merceode Lodge to be shown round for a potential move for mum when it becomes appropriate. I received a very friendly and professional welcome and was taken round the building. I was extremely impressed by the standard of rooms, facilities available and value for money that the place offers. It has a lovely, spacious and calm atmosphere and I admire the staff a great deal. Thank you.
Thank you Lynda for your kind feedback and we hope we will be able to support Mum when the need arises. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you require any further support.

I cannot rate Merceode Care home highly enough. We had to find urgent respite care for my father in law. The moment we walked in for a look around and were welcomed so warmly by Helen we knew it was the right place. The home is managed with love and compassion by Helen and Conor. They and the whole team are friendly, warm, caring and go out of their way to overcome obstacles and to provide individualized care. The atmosphere is calm, the decor is attractive, the food is amazing. We as a whole family were treated with immense kindness in what was a very difficult time. Our family member passed away there after a short stay. We are so grateful he was there and experienced such wonderful care. I would not hesitate to recommend this exceptional home.
Thank you Ali for your kind words. It was a huge privilege to care for and support Dad and you as a family. You are all welcome back to visit whenever you feel the need.
My mother now having been with you for a month, is very happy with all the facilities and staff. I know not more I need to say, except that putting together 200 words, can not embellish a good facility more.

Mum needed a little bit of extra care and help following a fall, and I was due to go away for a few days. I visited Merceode Lodge, and was very impressed from the moment I walked in. I decided to choose them for mums respite, and I couldn't be happier with everything they have done for her. All the staff are amazing, and can't do enough for mum at all times. The room is perfect, the so is the rest of the home. The food is always fantastic and freshly prepared at each mealtime. I would recommend to anyone.
Thank you Paul, we really appreciate your feedback and are privileged to help support Mum in her recovery!
The staff have been amazing, settling Mum in and caring for her. I cannot thank them enough, from the manager to the laundry staff, everyone has been so kind and helpful. When an ambulance was needed, the staff were quick and efficient whilst still being gentle and soothing.

We moved mum into the home today and I have to be honest I was really worried and anxious about it, but I really needn't of worried at all. We were made so welcome and the staff are amazing and very approachable. The whole place is immaculate. We were invited to join her for lunch as part of the settling process, which was a delight. I know she will be looked after which is a huge weight off of my mind. Thank you.
We appreciate it can be such a worrying time for our families and thank you for putting your trust in us!

I was very lucky to be invited to the Merceode Lodge opening day because I was looking for a dementia care home for my mum. The minute I stepped through the front door I was blown away by the feel and the design, the staff and the facilities. I knew it would be the the perfect place for my mum. It was important that mum would be stimulated to help keep her mind active and the activities on offer certainly have helped. She loves the crafts, singing and making new friends. The Lodge isn't currently full but I think even when it is it will still feel calm and the staff will still have time for the residents. The food is amazing, so I have no worries that mum isn't eating properly the chef came and introduced himself in the first hour of us arriving. Merceode certainly breaks the mould of old fashioned nursing homes. Huge thank you to the team for getting my mum in residence within 2 weeks of my visit.
Thank you Debbie for taking the time and for your positive feedback! We rely on this to continuously improve our service.
