I cannot state how amazing all of the staff and management have helped my father. When my Dad first went into care he was unable to walk! Now he is up dancing and is integrating in activities. I'm currently house bound with Mental Health issues and the guilt I feel not being able to see my father is helped by the wonderful and numerous photos that are sent on the group they have set up. The photos are amazing and I can just see the happiness on my Dads face. They are active in finding everything each individuals true likes and loves are/where and bring as much of that with their personalised interaction as possible. Thank you so much for all the hard work and effort that you put into caring for my father and everyone's else's beloved family member.
I completely recommend The Lodge, and its wonderful carers. Words struggle to convey how grateful we are that our Mum is so kindly and thoughtfully looked after, meaning that when we visit, we can just focus on saying hello etc, safe in the knowledge that everything is so beautifully organised for her. Her room is bright, fresh and clean, and her treasured possessions are carefully looked after, and she is always fresh and clean and comfortable, whatever curved-balls nature throws at her. Initially both our parents came to The Lodge, and they helped us when Dad got very ill, and kept Mum comfortable when we lost Dad, and were just so kind, thoughtful, and caring. If you're reading this review, you're probably going through what we went through when picking a place for your "next stop"; well we feel this has been a great choice, and the staff are absolutely superb; every single one! If you are thinking of The lodge for yourself or a loved-one(s), I think this place is lovely!
Mum is cared for extremely well on a daily basis. All staff are caring, friendly and helpful. Any concerns are dealt with in a compassionate manner and more importantly Mum is treated with dignity. She recently was moved from her previous room which she loves and is so much happier. Thank you to you all.
My dad has been at The Lodge care home for 3 months now and I can honestly say I have no complaints. The staff are amazing, always there to listen if you have any concerns and act immediately to help you. The home is clean and very welcoming, they have so much going on to make the residents happy and involved to keep their minds working. My dad is so happy here which makes me happy knowing he is well cared for, well fed and safe 24 hours a day. I can't recommend The Lodge Care Home enough, its hard to think of your parent/s going into a care home but at the Lodge you have no worries as it's just an amazing place.
Dad has been at The Lodge for just over a year now. I can't fault the care he receives and the fact that he has a dedicated carer means that his care is personal to him. He is not just another resident. Communication between the carers / management and resident's families is excellent and no reasonable request is too much trouble. The Lodge endeavours to regularly provide stimulating activities for the residents, employing a range of equipment, technologies and providers. Given the age profile of many of the residents, activities are targeted to ensure relevance, for example, the recent VE day celebration which was themed as a street party on the grounds at The Lodge. They also try to maintain a connection between the residents and the community, often involving local schools and, where aporopriate, facilitating trips to places of interest. Placing dad in the excellent care of The Lodge has brought peace of mind to our family, knowing he is safe, appreciated and well cared for.
My mum has been at The Lodge since July 2021. It has always been a really caring place, with excellent staff. Since new management have taken over it has gone from strength to strength. It is comforting to know that my darling mum is looked after by professional but top tier caring staff. Food has always been and continues to be nourishing and varied, with really lovely personal touches like each resident having a cake baked especially for their birthdays. There are always activities and events going on and relatives are welcomed at all times. It's the little things like this that put 'home' into the care home. My family are very happy with the management, staff, facilities, food and accommodation. Lovely happy home.
My Mum has been living in the lodge for 2 years due to suffering from Vascular dementia and health problems. She is cared for with kindness and compassion. All the staff including kitchen ladies, cleaners, carers and management are all genuinely kind and loving towards the residents and I have witnessed exemplary care and nursing skills. The manager and deputy respond immediately to any concerns or requests and do their utmost to help. They always show such knowledge of my Mums needs and problems and they call the Dr/ nurse/ paramedic quickly for any health issues. Visitors are made to feel so welcome and the door is always opened with a smile. Having your loved one in a care home is the hardest and saddest situation but the Lodge gives you peace of mind that they are looked after in your absence.
The home is welcoming and friendly on arrival. There is usually some activity taking place which the residents really enjoy and take part in. Visitors are welcomed and can see their relatives in the lounge or bedroom. Staff very helpful in managing this.
My mother-in-law has been a Resident of The Lodge for nearly 2 years now and my husband and I are so pleased that we chose this residential care home, in preference to any other because of the care, kindness and individual support that she has been given to all her needs in the entire time of her stay. My husband's mother is very happy and content there, she enjoys the company and very much enjoys the food. I personally would recommend this home to anyone looking to have a relative cared for because the staff are so kind and helpful, nothing is too much trouble and their involvement between themselves and us, (as relatives), is continuous to help keep on top of any concerns that we might have. (Nothing is too much trouble). The location of The Lodge is very pleasant, the rooms are very clean and well kept and the food freshly cooked is outstanding. We would definitely both recommend The Lodge as a good home to be considered for your relative!
Considering we called the day before Christmas eve, The Lodge was very accommodating. The staff are all so lovely and kind. The place is lovely and clean but I honestly can't fault how amazing the staff are. Thank you so much for all your help.
This care home is lovely. It's homely and smells so clean and fresh. In a lovely part of town with fields as a view. The manager, and all the staff I met were welcoming, friendly, and genuinely caring about the residents.
Dad took up residence at the start of June, 2024. We've been really impressed the professionalism of the staff and are grateful for their compassion whilst looking after Dad. We would recommend anyone looking for a care home to consider The Lodge.
My mother was sent here for six weeks of respite, and I am hoping it will become permanent. Although the building is in need of updating, the care she receives is excellent. The carers are very attentive, and she is being very well looked after. She is happy there, and I appreciate that the owners are new and it will take a while to implement their changes. The food is lovely.
Friendly staff, my mother is well looked after, good amount of staff involvement with residents and good activities arranged. The home is always clean and tidy when I have visited. Always keep updated by manager and staff.
I've found everyone here from management to the cleaners very good at their jobs, they treat the residents with the respect and dignity that they deserve! The food always smells and looks nice which is a real bonus!
The staff are friendly and always make you feel welcome, nothing is ever too much trouble. It is always clean and tidy. We like that it is a small home and has a nice feel to the place and the staff have time for the residents. There is also good communication between family members and management.
Fantastic care home. They are caring and look after my dad and other residents very well. They are always doing events to make it exciting and fun for the residents. I highly recommend this wonderful care home.
Love the home and staff are very accommodating and not too big so feels like one big family... Dad is very happy there and nothing is too much trouble for the staff... feel very lucky to have found this home for Dad.
I feel that the staff are always welcoming and helpful. The home always smells clean and tidy. I also feel that nothing is too much for all staff. They really go over and above. The manager runs the home very well.
The Lodge is a wonderful and caring environment and we have been really pleased with the support given to my father. Staff are kind and friendly both to residents and family members. They have a good routine and nothing is too much trouble. They liaise well with family and health professionals. They are compassionate and make sure they know what residents like. The manager is approachable and keeps me well-informed. The food seems good and the rooms are clean. Activities are organised for residents with regular visits from others like support dogs and local preschools. Residents can choose what they take part in. I would certainly recommend The Lodge.
