Standards of care are outstanding and there is a genuine interest from all staff in looking after my mother. She is in the best possible hands and I would recommend Court Lodge to anyone who needs an excellent care programme. The Home Manager is outstanding.

My mother-in-law needed to go into respite care whilst I looked after her daughter. We researched care homes locally and chose Court Lodge. It proved a good decision. The home was welcoming, the staff very friendly and helpful, and she immediately liked being there. The food was good, the activities varied and fun, and she was well looked after.

My mother needed care whilst I recovered from an operation. From the very first visit, I was greatly impressed by the friendliness, the lovely relaxed atmosphere and everyone was smiling. Nothing was too much trouble and mum very quickly settled into her room which overlooked the garden. She really enjoyed her meals, even having cooked breakfasts! Not normally very social she was encouraged and really enjoyed the varied activities. The staff answered any queries in a very helpful and professional manner. I was able to relax and recover knowing she was being well looked after and above all was happy. She will be coming back to stay again.

The staff are all very caring, knowledgeable and friendly.

Dad stayed at Court Lodge for 16 months up to January 2019. He moved only to be closer to family. The level of care provided enabled dad to improve his health and wellbeing - putting on weight and enjoying a varied social programme with staff. The quality of the food, environment and care support was always without fault. Everyone is kind, communicative and has time to stop and chat adding value to every day activity.

Words cannot express our gratitude for the excellent way my father was looked after by the staff and management of Court Lodge. They were so kind, caring, helpful, considerate, sympathetic, and friendly. Just wonderful really. Thank you so much. My mother would like to reinforce all of the above and looks forward to seeing some of you at the funeral.

I visit my mum every 7-10 days and I always get a very warm welcome from staff and residents. Nothing seems too much trouble to help. Mum is given excellent care and encouraged to join in or given choice. Everything is very clean and meals very good. Staff are patient and understanding of mum's needs when she is finding things challenging and keeps me informed.

Review submitted by Lorna B (Respite Resident/Service User) on Wednesday 29 August 2018. Review relates to August 2018.
I have had good care following surgery for bowel cancer. The staff on all levels have been helpful, cheerful and encouraging and always try to meet my own individual needs.
Food is excellent and again effort made to go along with my preferences.
My room is comfortable and well equipped. I have not participated in activities as I need rest but have enjoyed quiet walks in the beautiful garden.
The need for this kind of care is very great but for many of us, it is difficult meeting the cost. Can a way be found to reduce the cost?

I have been a resident for one year, four months. The staff made it easy for me to settle in. The garden here is greatly appreciated, we sit out most days under very good sun umbrellas.
The only query I would have, although the chefs are very good, they do not always have what is printed on the menus, sometimes quite 'basic ingredients'. The last few months the suppers have become too large and heavy for most people to appreciate.

Court Lodge is wonderful; the staff, the ambience, the gardens, the activities and, of course, the care.
My mother in law had a month there (respite) last year and now needs full care and has been welcomed back so nicely that the move was really smooth and she already feels at home.
We are delighted for her.
I want to praise the wonderful range of activities here at Court Lodge - every day there is so much to do and never a dull moment.
They think up a good range of things to entertain and amuse and organise wonderful day trips.
A+++ to the activities team.

I live alone and needed help following hip surgery.
The last 2 weeks have certainly aided my recovery, thank you.
My Aunt has been a resident for 2 plus years and I had witnessed a very caring, friendly, attentive team and have now experienced first hand for myself.
A huge thank you to everyone, no matter what their role they all work as a very happy team supporting and showing care to all residents, much appreciated.

Review submitted by Beatrice W (Wife of Resident/Service User) on Monday 30 April 2018. Review relates to April 2018.
I had no knowledge of the working of a nursing home until my Husband became ill. After nine weeks in hospital we were told to find a nursing home or he could be sent anywhere as I am 92 years young. My Son-in-law looked into things for me. As Court Lodge is the nearest to us he started there and had a chat with the Matron who showed him rooms and facilities and explained the activities. After going in to see my Husband every day for the last seven months he is now very poorly but sitting with him as long I have had the chance to see for myself how great the nurses and carers treat him and also they are lovely to me.

On the whole, I am happy with my mother's day-to-day care, most of the staff are helpful and kind. A couple of night staff could be more supportive (with help to the bathroom).
Food is not too bad, meals sometimes late and wrong meats given quite often. More home type meals would be nice (chips, goujons usually very hard and crispy).
