I have lived there for over 2 years and I'm telling you is all right now there's nothing like the photos online photos of somewhere else backers being closed down and it's just suddenly going under government funding think what you want but I wouldn't give it a star
My mother was very happy with her 3 week respite stay. The staff were extremely welcoming, friendly and attentive. Lots of interactive options and entertainment. The rooms are comfortable & spacious. Thank you to the whole team 😊

Could not fault the love and care provided to my husband while he was resident, and especially when he was dying. The staff were wonderful.

Mum was there for 2 years before passing. She grew to love the place. When you walk in, no stink! Very clean, very kind and helpful staff. She especially liked to be taken out to sit in the garden. The rooms are very nice, she could even open a window and see a tree when she was confined to bed. For an outdoors person, it really suited her
There was a warmth and kindness emanating throughout the lodge despite staff shortages. Activities, meals, cleanliness, and due diligence were reassuring.
