Mum has been at Buckingham Lodge for approximately 3 years, doesn't time fly when your having fun!! She has been looked after with care and affection over that entire period. Not an easy lady to deal with either. Dementia is a horrid disease taking Mum away from us slowly but surely. The team have
coped with all sorts of issues over that time but always managed these situations with proffessionalism. I can fully recommend the home for your loved one.

I recently visited my friend and was so pleased to see how happy and settled they are. The staff and management show genuine compassion and kindness toward the residents. This is a care home I would be very happy to choose if I ever needed one.

We visited our friend and once again it was good to see how happy and well looked after she is at Buckingham Lodge. This Care Home is excellent, it is always very clean and has a welcoming ambience. The Staff are so friendly and certainly very caring. We always read the menu and it certainly appears
well balanced and tempting. There are many activities organised by the staff for the residents and by looking at the photos these are well attended and enjoyed. We would, and do, recommend this Care Home.

My husband had been taken cared of by all staff members and we are happy the way they treated him.
The facilities in the care home is very good and my husband is happy to call his home.
The food is freshly cooked by the lovely chef.

My mother has been staying at Buckingham Lodge since February and my family and I are very happy with the care she receives. All the staff are really friendly and supportive, and her room and en-suite are always immaculate. Although Mum has advanced dementia, the staff still find ways to help her
engage, and are very respectful of her. We are so grateful for everything they do.

Mum came into Buckingham Lodge on the 2 nd June of this year. She has a beautiful room with an en-suite bathroom which is always kept very clean at all times. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and it is always a pleasure to come in and chat to them. There is always a varied menu on offer
and some lovely sweet treats as well. If ever mum needs to see a doctor, this is dealt with very promptly. The staff always phone me if they have any concerns regarding mums health which puts my mind at rest totally. Mum sees more people in a day than she ever did living on her own. She is safe and very well cared for by the wonderful caring team.
I am so happy that I chose Buckingham Lodge.

High standard care delivered with kindness, compassion and respect. My mum has been a resident for a number of years and they have sensitively adapted to her deteriorating condition which has helped not only her transition but ours as a family.
Unfortunately mum does not join in the activities we
see happening with us residents but they seem to be having as much fun as she used to and it is a joy to see.
Thank you from us all.

Buckingham Lodge is a very caring home. They have really helped my Dad settle. They have provided a personalised welcome pack. They have also taken him to church which is really important to Dad. They are also taking him to his favourite cafe. I feel he is respected and loved. Thankyou.

My husband has been a resident of Buckingham Lodge for nearly two years now.
He is so well looked after by wonderful caring staff. My husband is very happy, comfortable and very contented.
His room is always clean and bathroom spotless.
The care home is run by a the excellent Manager who has
worked so hard to achieve the results he has. This is all possible by the great staff who work there. They are always helpful very supportive and friendly.
I have absolutely no concerns about the wonderful care my husband receives.
It's always a pleasure to visit Buckingham Lodge. It's like visiting family, always a lovely happy atmosphere.
We struck gold when we found Buckingham Lodge.

I am really happy with this care home. There is a genuine feeling of care from everyone within the home. We have been here for over two years now and wouldn't want Mum to be anywhere else. Everyone here shows care and compassion and kindness to each and every person including families. Communication
is exceptional which for me is so important.

Mum has been a resident at Buckingham Lodge for several years. It is such a friendly, caring home where Mum is safe and happy.
There are lots of activities for the residents and lovely meals too.
Highly recommend Buckingham Lodge.

Mum is in her 4th year as a resident of Buckingham Lodge & the level of care has not faltered, we are still very happy with the level of care she is receiving.
The excellent caring rapport between residents & staff continues to be very obvious by their behaviours & actions. There is a family
atmosphere between staff, residents & their relatives.
The dementia journey is very much a rollercoaster of behaviours & emotions, we have worked closely with the staff at every step of journey, through the highs & lows feeling very supported. The staff are caring & professional which gives us peace of mind whilst leaving Mum in their care 24-7

It was with much sadness that my darling wife of 61 years was diagnosed with advanced alzheimers and taken into care at Buckingham Lodge. This was last August 2024. Over the subsequent months I have observed frst hand how professional and loving the carers are under the direction of the homes
brilliant manager. I can sleep well at night knowing she is excellently cared for. Also, I can see how happy she is. Thank you all at Buckingham Lodge.

Since mum moved into Buckingham Lodge she has been so well cared for by the staff there. Nothing is too much trouble for them , whether it be a cup of tea and a biscuit or help with showering and personal care . She loves the food and has even gained a little bit of weight . It is always a source
of comfort to me that she has someone with her 24 hours a day .
19 May 2025
The care my Mother receives is second to none she is cared for round the clock by a team of professionals who go the extra mile to make her smile, she has been at the home for 6 years and I couldn't recommend this place more highly, their dementia care is very good and I feel that all the team
leaders and Management work together to make the home a happy and safe place for residents.

My father who is 93 moved into Buckingham Lodge care home in March 2025 after a long stay in hospital. He left hospital extremely under weight, physically weak, and in a pretty much constant state of confusion.
A lady came to assess my father while in hospital and told us how lovely Buckingham
Lodge care home was and how caring the staff were and if I'm honest, I was sceptical, I had had previous experiences with other relatives going into other care homes and it was not good.
On arrival at Buckingham Lodge we really were given a warm welcome! The staff could not have been more helpful!
My father was given a lovely en-suite room which was very clean and beautifully decorated, he has a television, desk with a chair and a comfortable chair for relaxing. He also has a small fridge.
My father has settled really well, is happy, gained weight, a lot less confused! The staff are always helpful, dad says the food is great!
Lots of entertainment!
Couldn't be happier with his care!

I cannot thank the staff and management enough for the care they show with my aunt since she came to Buckingham Lodge. At 98, it was a huge change for her and she has adapted so well and is happy that is down to the staff. I've seen a side of her that I didn't know existed, making gingerbread
biscuits, stroking snakes and snails, arm dancing to music all with a big smile. Thank you

This year it is our 62nd Wedding anniversary. I woke up on 8/9/2024 really sad that my husband wasn't by side. I went to visit him with his card and present and was amazed to be greeted by one of the carers with a heart. When I arrived upstairs the area was beautifully decorated with hearts and
balloons and the table was set with a lovely roast dinner and a bottle of wine. I was bowled over with the kindness shown and then to round it of a beautiful cake was presented. I was so surprised and happy that a day which I thought was going to be sad turned out to be so special. The staff are special at Buckingham Lodge always cheerful doing a difficult job. Thank you all.

Carers always say hello to my dad and I. Carers are all so friendly. I was there the other day and the residents were singing away amongst themselves around the table, so overall, they all seem happy. I love seeing the various videos that are posted showing my dad having a good time. That makes me
very reassured.

My father became a permanent resident at Buckingham Lodge back in April of this year. I decided to wait for a few months before submitting a review. Yesterday, I visited him on his 94th birthday at Buckingham Lodge and my wife and I were blown away at the fuss that the care home staff bestowed on my
father. Firstly, the chef and his colleague produced a surprise birthday cake that looked amazing and tasted delicious. Secondly, the carer that was on duty made us feel very welcome too.
After tea and cake, we wandered around the first floor which is modern, smart, clean and very spacious. Importantly, my father tells me that he feels safe and secure at Buckingham Lodge. He enjoys the food that is provided and he showed me the menu for this week which looks varied and healthy. The staff that I have met over the last few months have all been courteous and helpful.
Overall, four months down the line, I feel that we made the correct choice for my father to stay at Buckingham Lodge.
