My mum finally decided she needed full time care and decided to move to The Lodge. The process of identifying her needs and settling her in was done with dignity and great care. Sadly, my mum's illness progressed quickly, but the nursing care was outstanding, and it gave me great comfort to know that she was being looked after so well when I went home. Thank you.

Business response:

Thank you and yes I agree, it was a short stay however, it was in the control of your mum who made all the decisions she chose, in the way she wanted. I will miss the family contact too. thank you for your kind words, they are much appreciated.

I cannot praise the care I had at The Lodge highly enough. The care was needed for several weeks of respite after an adverse reaction to hospital treatment, after which I could not care for myself. It was much appreciated that efforts were made to book me in on short notice. The staff were lovely without exception and always had a smile and a few words of encouragement.

Business response:

Hello and thank you for the wonderful recommendation for all of us at The Lodge. We have enjoyed your company and wish you very well with your ongoing recovery. You probably won't require our services again however, if you do, you would be most welcome to return!!

My mother has been a resident for 3 and a half years. From the start mum was looked after and cared for by excellent staff. Mum was liked by many of the staff and had a good rapport with them. She was able to be taken out in her wheelchair to many places, including the garden centre, museum, and Exmouth where she could enjoy fish and chips!! Hairdresser, chiropody, optician and visiting dentist are all available to all residents if needed. The Lodge entertainment is very varied from crafts, Summer Fayre, visits from local or... read more

Our experience with The Lodge they are a very caring team, they work hard, The Lodge is always clean, you would think it is a 5 star hotel. The food is spot on and 5 star care.

The Lodge has been exceptional. The manager has been very supportive from the start and has an open door to residents, their families and staff. The staff are always friendly, caring and go above and beyond to provide outstanding care. The home is always clean and staff are smartly dressed. The food provided is freshly cooked on site and a good menu selection. There are always plenty of activities available and regular visits from entertainers. Would recommend without hesitation.

Business response:

Thank you for this review and I'm delighted that you have found every area to be worthy of such praise. We strive very hard to meet the needs of each and every resident and that includes families and friends as well. We are proud of the standard of service we offer and to hear it from families, is always wonderful. Thank you again.

The Lodge provides excellent care for Mum. The entire team - from care staff and nurses to cleaners, activity coordinators, catering and management - are professional, friendly and attentive. The facility is beautiful, the food is good, and there's a good variety of activities, but the staff's genuine care and attention to residents' needs is what makes this place stand out. I'd highly recommend The Lodge.

Business response:

Thank you very much for a great (and quick) response about your mum's care and your visit to the UK. I really appreciate it and the time you've taken to do it! We look forward to your next visit to The Lodge.

I stayed at The Lodge for about a week following surgery (as I live alone and in a house on multiple levels). The Lodge provided exactly what I needed, especially the first few days when I was so uncomfortable. Everyone was really kind and I appreciated the help I received from the carers and nurses, as well as the hospitality staff and other teams. In addition, I was really reassured to have professional nurses monitoring the medication, especially the heavy-duty painkillers, and to have the personal care support. The Lodge... read more
