I have visited this facilitiy a few times over the last few months. Each time I have to press the bell to allow a member of staff to let me in and out. My friend always seems very happy and contented. The staff are always so helpful to me and my friend. The food looks so appetising and helathy. Plenty of activities are provided for the residents. The communal room and bedrooms are spotless. I cannot emphasie enough on the ability and caring nature that the staff give to the residents.

My sister stayed at Braeburn Lodge for two weeks respite care, this being her first experience of such a stay. She settled in well as the staff were all very welcoming and understanding. She enjoyed the activities provided especially trips out in the minibus. Thank you to everyone who made her stay so enjoyable and for looking after her so well.

We feel we have landed on our feet with Braeburn Lodge. It's been an emotional time having to put our relative into a care home. The care industry is like the wild west so to find Braeburn Lodge has been a happy accident. All the staff are so caring and the place is clean and welcoming. My step-mum seems really happy and there's always a cup of tea for me when I arrive. It's the true meaning of a "care" "home". It's definitely both.

For the five weeks my aunt stayed at Braeburn Lodge , the service was excellent and the staff were very attentive and helpful. Her health and overall physical condition improved immensely and she thoroughly enjoyed her time there. She and her immediate family can only shower praise upon the very friendly staff and we say a big thankyou to all of them.

Braeburn Lodge is homely and friendly and is most suited to my mother's care needs. The staff are friendly and attentive, the food is excellent and the social activities and outings provided keeps mum busy, engaged socially and entertained. A great home and a great team! Well done.

The team at Braeburn are just BRILLIANT they do a wonderful job of looking after each and every person in the home. It is like a home away from home. My great-grandfather has really settled in and is very happy there. The staff know what he loves and what he dislikes and they take care of all his needs. We know he is in safe hands - given my great-grandfather is 103 years of age it is such a relief to know he is looked after. A big thanks to the team.

All staff are very friendly and already have gone above and beyond in welcoming Mum into their care. In particular, during a recent room swap, a member of staff rearranged the new room upon request (the same day) to provide more space and to also help reduce Mum's anxiety about change. It is still early days but presently I feel very happy with my Mother's care and surroundings.

Went to see my friend's mum on an impromptu Friday in January 2025, what a gem of a find. Fabulous little care home, very friendly and super clean, great gardens too, lovely to see such happy residents.

Wonderful care home. Since my mother became a resident, she has been surrounded by the best care and ultimately, love. Nothing is too much trouble, ideas, plans and needs are often suggested before I ask. Staff are so friendly to the guests, families and visitors. The manager, senior carer, chef, maintenance, housekeepers, everyone is involved with the residents and treat them with dignity and respect but also laugh with them and have fun. Residents are entertained on a daily basis with in-house activities, crafts, baking and a 'theme week' occurs nearly every week of the year! Trips out are a frequent occurrence, treats are encouraged. This is now my mum's safe space, she is happy and content and wants for nothing. A brilliant place, five stars from me!

My grandmother has been a resident at Braeburn Lodge for nearly four years now. The care she receives is exemplary and second to none. The home is small, so it really is like a family home, all the residents dine together round a large dining table which really adds to the family feel. The residents lead such an active lifestyle, going out to various clubs and activities multiple times a week and if they're not on a trip out, there is always something going on in the home to keep them busy. The food is beautiful, homemade every day, including fresh cakes. As relatives, we are really made to feel part of the family and there are several events each year where we all come together as families with staff to spend time together, having a BBQ or other event. My grandmother is so happy and truly loved and exceptionally well cared for. I wouldn't consider anywhere else to look after my loved one.

The care and support my mum has received since moving to Braeburn Lodge has been excellent. The staff and management have gone over and above in taking care of my mum and helping her to adjust to being in residential care. Nothing is too much and I am very happy that my mum is in such a lovely and well-run care home.

My grandma has been at Braeburn Lodge for over six years now, the home has provided her with a homely and safe place to live where she receives all the help and care she needs. I like that it is a small care home, it always feels clean and the staff are always helpful and caring. Also, there are plenty of activities/trips out that Grandma loves to be involved in. I would definitely recommend Braeburn to anyone needing the facilities, care and comfort they offer. P.S. Thank you for all you do for Grandma!

I visited my friend at Christmas and received a warm welcome from staff and some of the residents. Beautiful ambience. Lovely homemade decorations. Always look forward to seeing my friend where she is happy and cared for so well. I would be happy to come as a resident.

A superb care home. Only 12 rooms so plenty of individual attention. Although monthly fee may appear on the high side, note that cost of toiletries, newspapers, all outings on mini bus, coffee and cake at cafes, the occasional meal out and the wonderful meals and snacks are all included. Everyone has a fuss made of them on their birthday and all events big and small are celebrated. Home from home, the best you could want. We are so happy to know mum is so well cared for.

What a beautiful home, very welcoming and warm. The staff are so lovely and helpful. You can tell that the staff always want to have a positive impact on their residents. All the residents my mother included are very happy here.

Braeburn Lodge is a small, homely care home offering the personal touch to Mum. The staff are very caring and loving and they go out of their way to make life happy and safe for Mum. They have many activities and Mum often goes out in the minibus to singing, coffee mornings and the riverside. The food is home-cooked and nutritious. I would highly recommend this home.
