I was a senior carer at Wantsum Lodge from May 2008 until June 2022 when I retired, so this was always going to be my first and only choice as my mum's home when she became unable to care for herself due to worsening dementia. I have always felt that Wantsum was my 2nd home and I'm glad to say that mum soon felt the same. All of the staff are warm and friendly, and the care is second to none. There is always so much going on - music, dancing, singing, art, visits to interesting places. This spring they had baby ducks hatch in the home and mum got to gently hold one. Mum loved the food but best of all she loved the carers. We could visit at any time and were always involved in decisions regarding mum's care. Sadly my mum has just passed away and the Wantsum family have shared in our grief and are supporting us at this very difficult time. I cannot recommend Wantsum Lodge highly enough for their care, support and love, for both their residents and their families. A truly 5 star home.

From the moment Mum was assessed at home before moving to Wantsum, I knew we were in safe hands. On the day we arrived, we were met by staff and we were welcomed into the Wantsum family. Every aspect is exceptional - everywhere is clean and looked after, the food is delicious, the activities are varied and appealing - from bingo, craft, sinagalongs with live music to following duck eggs as they hatch, watching the ducklings grow. There is always a happy, fun atmosphere with residents and visitors included.The staff respect the family's wishes and involved us in decisions about all aspects of Mum's care. Every member of staff goes out of their way to provide the best care - the carers, cleaning, catering, management and maintenance. It is incredible that so wonderful people are assembled in one place. We could not have wished for better care for Mum.

Mum was welcomed into the Wantsum family 2 years ago. She was always treated like a treasured family member and on my visits I was made so welcome. All of the staff were exceptionally caring. I could phone and ask about anything and my requests were always met with "no problem". Living at the other end of the country, it was incredibly reassuring to know that she was being looked after so well and that she was happy.

I feel it's a very warm and friendly home, and my mum is enjoying living with the other residents, and the staff are helpful, and any problems that I feel need addressing you can speak to the manager anytime, her door is always open, also my mum has made some nice friends within the home, which is lovely.

Residents are well looked after, the home is spotlessly clean, the staff are lovely. The manager takes any comments on board and the families of residents are listened to. The residents are entertained. I'm very happy that my mum is in Wantsum Lodge.

My mother has been at Wantsum Lodge now for nearly 5 years. The staff are amazing, the most caring, kind and compassionate people I have ever met. They welcome family and friends of loved ones and nothing is too much trouble. I am happy I can contact them at any time with concerns that may arise. The activities never cease to amaze me, from balloon tennis to Guinea pig petting. Live music, pottery, painting and always a party atmosphere. The food is fantastic with a lovely dining area. I would highly recommend Wantsum Lodge my mother is extremely happy there and I am comforted to know she is receiving the best care.
