My mother was lovingly looked after by the team at the Lodge for the last few years of her life until she died when 98 years old. Some of the carers treated her as if she was their own mother.
They knew what food she was able to eat and nothing was too much trouble for Jung the cook to serve mum
the food she liked. Many of the staff did all they could to help her with her meal times when eating became difficult for her.
They were very gentle and caring , and she appreciated very much the way Regina cut her finger nails.
The atmosphere in the home was so peaceful, the family were always made welcome whenever we visited and served tea and biscuits .

Mum was a full time resident for around 15 months following a fall and loss of mobility. She had been an occasional resident for several years before. We visited without prior notice once or twice a month and invariably found her well presented, warm and content. The staff were unfailingly
attentive to her, being alert to her declining faculties. The care and genuine affection shown towards her was most reassuring.

We visit one a month roughly as we do not live near. It's a lovely place & my mother-in-law is very happy. The staff appear wonderful with the residents always appearing well cared for and happy. Having worked as a nurse in a care home, I feel I can happily say The Lodge is excellent.

Lovely home and excellent staff can't do enough for mum or any of the family. Nice to know that mum is comfortable and happy where she is and has been for as long as she has been here. Big shout out to the chef as the food is exceptional, I could keep on going but I'm going to keep it short and
sweet - I think that this home must be the best around and has been for a long while.

I was at The Lodge for 2 weeks respite recently. I have to say that I found the experience excellent. The staff were all without exception wonderfully helpful, kind and caring and fun. The building was spotlessly clean and well decorated. My bedroom was very comfortable. Most of the residents
seem to be very happy. The entertainment was good fun and food very nice. I would have no hesitation in recommending The Lodge.

My mother has resided at The Lodge for nearly 2 years. During this time we have always found the level of care to be of a very high level. All of the staff go above and beyond to provide a happy and relaxed environment for both residents and their families and visitors. Cleanliness is always to a
very high standard and the menu choice and quality of food is very impressive. Entertainment and activities provided are varied and imaginative. The staff deserve to be commended for providing a comfortable and caring home.

Mum has lived at The Lodge for 3 years, and during the time she has always been happy and contented. The dedication by staff ensures she always receives the best of care and attention. No effort was spared by staff to give her a lovely Birthday party last month, and it gives me a chance to spend
some precious time with her.
I always know she is in safe and caring hands.
