  • Stanway Green Lodge, Colchester
Stanway Green Lodge is situated in a quiet and picturesque area of Colchester. The family run home offers a very personal level of care and is an ideal place to stay if individuals are looking for a small, friendly and homely environment.

Please take a moment to visit the website, and in particular, the ‘Events’ page to read about all the latest news and events that have taken place at the home.

Due to the small nature of the home, the staff will truly know each person and understand all their individual needs. Service users are given every opportunity and the encouragement to follow hobbies and share interest in new ones. The comprehensive entertainment program features in-house activities as well as entertainers from outside.

Residents also have the opportunity to participate in organised trips and outings, allowing them to see local sights and visit places of interest.

The home believes strongly in maintaining links with the local community and as a result has contact with religious bodies (All Saints, Kingsland and Colchester Baptist Churches), students at Essex University and the Iceni Academy.

The home has two lounges with pleasant views of the garden as well a large dining room where all meals are served.

The attractive gardens with outside seating makes it ideal for relaxing in the summer months, as well as hosting the homes annual summer garden party.

I am very happy with Mum's care and treatment. She can be a bit demanding sometimes and I feel that the staff cope with this very well. I have found that any queries are dealt with promptly and communication is good.
I find the home to be friendly and they do try to involve Mum with the various activities
but she can find it hard to socialise and does not always want to participate.

My cousin has been cared for at Stanway Green Lodge since August 2014 to the present time. I live away from the Colchester area where my cousin has lived for much of her adult life, and it's comforting to know that she is getting excellent care and nutrition together with a range of activities to take
part in.

My Mother has been a resident at Stanway Green Lodge for over 12 months.
She is incredibly happy there, and that speaks volumes.
The staff are so caring and thoughtful - nothing is too much trouble.
We are so fortunate there was a place available when my Mother needed care.

My mother went to Stanway Green Lodge initially for respite care. It soon became clear that she needed the kind of full time care that the home could provide. The staff could not have been more helpful, friendly and caring over a very difficult period of adjustment for my mother and my family. They
have responded promptly to all her needs and concerns and offered helpful suggestions for improving her quality of life. Nothing is too much trouble. The environment is clean, tidy and very well presented inside and outside. The staff offer a wide range of interesting activities throughout the year. A relaxed and happy atmosphere has been created. It is clear that the home is there for the residents and the residents are 'at home'.

If you are looking for up front frills and a fancy reception area, this is probably not the home for you, but if your priority is excellent care, a clean, well run home, a gentle, respectful attitude to residents, easy access to management and any problems sorted swiftly, then Stanway Green Lodge would
be a good choice.


It took us about 30 minutes during our initial impromptu visit to choose Stanway Green for our mother, after seeing about 8 homes ranging from palatial to quite simply unacceptable and we have never in the three years she has been there regretted our choice. The owner runs a happy home and the girls who work there are caring and kind, they helped to make our mother's transition at an advanced age from her own flat to Stanway Green seamless.

My mother is extremely happy in this residential home. She has been there for 17 months and it has felt like home from home. She has been given as much independence, respect and privacy as possible.
The staff are warm and friendly and the atmosphere is always cheerful. Any requests have been implemented
and nothing is too much trouble. The management are always approachable and make time to listen. New activities are always being introduced and the management are keen to integrate residents into the local community wherever possible.

The one thing about Stanway Green Lodge is no odours meet you at the door as is the case with a lot of care homes. The home is set in nice grounds with ample car parking. The décor is good and well maintained. The residents all look scrupulously clean whatever time of day you visit. The rooms are a
nice size and kept clean.
The staff are always friendly and helpful and nothing is too much trouble. The managers are extremely helpful and are also in evidence throughout the day and they interact well with their residents. They are very approachable and nothing is too much trouble. I have been in many care homes over the last few years and I have to say this would be my No.1 choice when my time comes to enter one!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.917)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.917) out of 10 for Stanway Green Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.917 for Stanway Green Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (122 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.917

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Stanway Green Lodge is based on 11 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6, which has been reached with 11 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
