Belmore Lodge stepped in to help in a moment of crisis for my elderly cousin, who had had a fall. The management couldn't have been more helpful in accommodating my cousin at short notice. This care and kindness continued while she remained in their care. The members of management were professional
and helpful, and went out of their way to respond promptly to her family's requests. The atmosphere in the Home was calm, warm and encouraging, and the staff were attentive and kind. It was a positive experience all round.

I have nothing but high praise for Belmore Lodge. It is run very well by the manager. All staff are brilliant, so kind and caring and nothing is any trouble. The food, which is so important to me, is a very high quality and enjoyable. I am very happy to be a Resident of Belmore Lodge.

All the staff are friendly, professional and dedicated.
The food is excellent and the all round care and compassion is excellent.

I injured my leg and needed respite care while it healed - it had become infected. I had a wonderful welcome (even a welcome notice in the care park) and was impressed immediately by the reception staff. The comfort and attention, food and whole experience has been wonderful - kind and thoughtful -
I am going home soon, feeling rested + relaxed with my leg healed. A memorable experience. Comfort + decor a1! Thank you Belmore.

My sister was a resident at Belmore Lodge for eleven months, sadly requiring round the clock nursing care for her terminal illness. The nursing care my sister received was exemplary. Every member of staff was always friendly, caring and courteous to both her and myself, nothing was too much
trouble for any of them. My sister mentioned to me frequently during her care, that she had come to regard many of the staff as her new friends! Sadly my sister has now passed on, and on the odd occasion I have visited Belmore Lodge since for whatever reason, the staff are still very friendly and courteous to me.
If one day in the future, sadly I require some form of care, my first enquiry will be placed at Belmore Lodge, I very much doubt I will need to enquire elsewhere!!

May I again thank you for looking after me during my 5 week stay at Belmore Lodge. I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my right knee which caused swelling and lack of flexibility and then I developed a hematoma in the same leg which really reduced my mobility. I was at home by myself (not
married) for a couple of weeks with no appetite and unable to walk without sticks. My right leg felt so weak that I was afraid to go outside in case I fell. I decided that respite care was the only solution as I was barely eating and you were kind enough to allow me to stay in the Lodge with you again. All the staff, again, were first class in assisting my recovery and I left on Tuesday in a much better frame of mind than when I entered the Lodge. I am now looking forward to meals (not as good as your chef's who could easily be given a few Michelin Stars) and am now able to walk short distances (I spent yesterday afternoon tidying up the garden) without sticks thanks to the physio I was given

Professional, kind and attentive staff. Happy atmosphere. Good quality meals, choice of menu. Ensuite bedroom, lovely, beautiful lounge and well-furnished throughout. Activities every day if interested, but no pressure to participate.
Very satisfied with care my husband received and he was much
improved when he came home after 1 months respite care.

On arrival at Belmore Lodge, one is always greeted by the very friendly and welcoming staff at reception. To be fair, all of the staff are welcoming and friendly, and no request, no matter how trivial, ever seems to be a problem for anyone. The home is always spotlessly clean and tidy, the gardens
are beautifully maintained, the food is exceptionally good, and it always has a bright and happy feel. My mother has been a resident there for ten years now, and she is certainly very happy with the care that she receives. She loves the staff and her second floor room overlooking the garden, and despite the fact that she can no longer join in with any of the activities, she always manages to keep herself occupied, positive, and cheerful. If you are considering a care home for yourself or for a loved one, I can highly recommend Belmore Lodge.

My mother recently spent 4 weeks in respite care at Belmore Lodge following an extended stay in hospital. From initial enquiry onwards, everyone and everything at Belmore Lodge was excellent. The professionalism, support, standard of care, attention to detail, personal touch, environment,
friendliness and kindness of every single member of the team, enabled my mother to feel at ease, rest, recuperate and rebuild her strength, to the extent that she has now returned home and, for the time being, is able to enjoy independent life again. Family and visitors were always made to feel extremely welcome throughout. Despite initially feeling a little reticent about going into care for the first time, my mother found the whole experience so superbly positive that she's now very much looking forward to returning for a further respite stay (holiday cover) in a couple of months and I'm sure will be back again. We are very lucky to have such a wonderful facility on our doorstep, thank you all!

My wife was looked after in an exemplary manner for eight months. All her needs were met. So, despite her initial misgivings about being a care home resident had disappeared and she was very happy and contented. The nursing element of her care was well tailored to her needs and handled a few crises
most efficiently. I have nothing but praise for the staff and management.

When my mother was given a terminal diagnosis she made the decision to leave her home and move to a care/nursing home knowing that she would need nursing care at some point in the not to distant future. Having been recommended Belmore Lodge by a friend I made an appointment to visit. It was the only
care home I visited, which says everything. I and subsequently my sister and our families were welcomed into Belmore and treated with kindness, respect and compassion. The end of life care my mother received was all we could have hoped for in such difficult circumstances. Losing her independence was her biggest challenge and staff approached her with sensitivity and genuine care, always listening to what she wanted and being led by her. Belmore Lodge is a professionally run and very well led care home with old fashioned values and a sense of pride in what they do. We as a family could never have imagined our mother in a care home and we consider ourselves very lucky to have found Belmore.

My friend was a resident for eighteen months. She decided she needed more care than she was able to give herself while living on her own.
She was a bright, intelligent lady and found the activities offered by the care home to be entertaining, varied and stimulating/
The grounds are beautiful to
sit in and enjoy nature and beautifully maintained.
All of the staff are friendly, welcoming and caring to both residents and visitors alike and the nursing care and food are exemplary.

My mother passed away at the age of 96 after staying at Belmore Lodge for almost thirteen years. Throughout that time, the care she received was outstanding and the staff were unfailingly efficient, friendly and supportive. Over that time, the staff became her extended family and it was a great
comfort to us knowing she was so well looked after.
After her passing, the management and staff were very supportive in making all necessary arrangements and even arranged a commemorative tea for her after the funeral service. We were so touched to see how upset some of the staff were at her loss and a number of them came to the funeral or made a point of coming to pay their respects.
We would unreservedly recommend Belmore Lodge and its dedicated staff and thank them for making my mother's later years comfortable, enjoyable and safe.

We have found the staff very supportive when our aunt moved into the home earlier this year. It was not an easy transition and since then she has settled down well. Without exception, staff are friendly and always willing to help. The home has a wide range of varied activities every day and from my
aunt’s comments, food is of a high standard. The nurses keep us well-informed and always respond to calls promptly. I highly recommend this home.

The welcome that you receive when you walk in the door reflects the warmth and professionalism of Belmore Lodge. The staff are friendly, kind and professional. The care that my dad received was exceptional. He could not speak highly enough of Belmore Lodge. The decision to move to a care home was a
difficult one but after arriving at Belmore Lodge, it was clear that it had been absolutely the right one.

Mum was treated with dignity and respect. She had the best of care from carers and nursing staff alike, who kept her comfortable during her illness. If I had any concerns regarding Mum, they were heard and dealt with. I was given support by the staff during this very difficult time which was much
appreciated.

I have been a resident of Belmore Lodge for six months and everything is as excellent as the day I arrived. It is very well run and organised. It has a lovely atmosphere and is very friendly. The staff in all departments are brilliant and nothing is too much trouble. The food is excellent and a good
choice is there. I am pleased I chose Belmore Lodge and am very happy here.

My dad arrived in Belmore Lodge Care Home in March 2023! We were all nervous and sad as Dad had suffered a stroke and would need 24/7 care.
Belmore became my second home, I’d visit my dad every single day. Most days I’d bring my 5-year-old daughter with me. We were always greeted and made so
welcome. Dad's care was impeccable for the seven months he was there, nurses checking in on him and his personal care every 2 hours too.
Dad sadly passed away during October this year. During his last days, the home looked after my brother and I just as much as they did our father. They truly made our last days and hours with Dad peaceful. They were so caring towards us and we were able to stay with him which was so wonderful so he knew we were with him.
I drive past often and feel sad he is not there anymore but also, I miss going in and seeing all the staff who were very friendly to us all. Thank you Belmore.
20 November 2023
I am so grateful for the exceptional care provided by Belmore Lodge Care Home in Lymington. My dad's experience at this nursing home was nothing short of first-class.
From the outset, the team at Belmore Lodge demonstrated a commitment to creating a supportive and friendly environment for my dad
and the family. The professionalism and genuine care exhibited by every staff member, from the nurses and care staff to the admin personnel, have set a standard that truly distinguishes Belmore Lodge. The team are led by the manager who checked in with us on every visit to make sure we were happy.
Belmore Lodge is an excellent choice for anyone seeking a nursing home where their loved ones will be treated with the utmost respect, dignity and unparalleled care. I wholeheartedly recommend Belmore Lodge to anyone looking for a nursing home or care home for a loved one. Thank you.

My mum spent four weeks in respite care in Belmore Lodge following an emergency admission this summer. With this review, I would like to thank all the staff who took care of my mum so compassionately and professionally. From the first point of contact, everyone worked together to allow a quick and
efficient admittance. The residents, as well as the staff, also supported Mum with her recovery by both talking and listening and by sharing their stories and experiences. Mum soon showed improvements and then enjoyed joining the activities on offer as well as the food. Thank you to all the team - I cannot recommend you highly enough.
