Thank you for your lovely review. New residents will always receive a warm welcome to Marine View Lodge. We understand it can be a daunting experience moving to new surroundings with new faces and sounds and we will always make the transition as smooth and welcoming as possible. We are so pleased it was a positive experience for your mum and she felt settled so quickly. Our staff always support the family members too so they have peace of mind that their relative is in the best place receiving fantastic care. Our activities team provide a varied program and enjoy celebrating birthdays with parties and a cake made by our chef! Everyone enjoyed celebrating your dad's birthday, he is very much part of the family at Marine View Lodge. Many thanks.
