Get directionsThe staff, under their excellent manager, are providing very good care for my husband. I know that he is not always easy, but they treat him with respect and patience and show real concern for his condition.
I find the staff helpful and caring. My dad is happy and well cared for. The food is good and the home comfortable. He receives good medical care and all his needs are met.
A really pleasant home that offers personal and individual care. Staff are always welcoming, kind and helpful.
The manager and her team provided great care for my mother. They were very welcoming and caring making sure my mother was comfortable and happy, my mother is naturally anxious and this was her first time away from her own home. The team ensured she was comfortable and helped her make friends with the other residents. My mother settled in very quickly. The team also upheld the home's standards very well, keeping me informed at all times and taking prompt action when needed. The home itself is clean and bright and a very calm ... read more

Manager and her deputy have been quick to respond to complaints but impossible for them to oversee true picture daily. I have found dirty clothes put ba... read more
Business response:
Thank you for your feedback, we completely understand the frustrations surrounding the lift and we have fed this back to the Maintenance Dept in Head Office to ensure that we have faster response times to emergency situations, should anything occur in the future. Our management has an open-door policy and is always at the end of the phone to address any concerns with staff or care. We appreciate your honest feedback and we will continue to work to provide you with an improved experience.
Lyle House tries to maintain an adequate level of staff, but like all institutions experience shortages at times due to personnel leaving to cut travel times, or earn a little more. This has resulted in difficulties with home managers. The lack of a regular receptionist means others have to cover. This must lead to staff stress. So sometimes I do have difficulty understanding what some staff are saying due to their speech patterns, and my partial deafness.
