It’s not easy making the decision that your parent needs to move to a care home but I am so pleased and relieved that we found and chose Tudor Lodge. It took Mum a little while to settle initially, but with the kindness, caring, compassion, patience and encouragement of all the wonderful staff, she
became part of their “family”. It’s always so reassuring to see her face light up when she is with them. Mum loves all the activities - especially the singing sessions! The staff have worked very hard to keep everyone safe, complying with the necessary covid restrictions. At the same time, they have obviously recognised and facilitated the emotional and psychological benefits of family contact whenever and however possible, within the restrictions. Every single member of staff I have come into contact with has been friendly and welcoming. I am very reassured that as things change for Mum, they are adapting her care to meet her needs. I can highly recommend Tudor Lodge.

Reply from Chris Arnold, Manager at Tudor Lodge

We are very grateful for your kind remarks which we shall be sure to share with all those who work here. Your mum is a joy to look after and, as you say, it is a pleasure to see how she responds to music.

Have found all the staff very friendly, helpful and caring. During the difficult covid periods, the home bent over backwards to facilitate visits or FaceTime. The staff have made Mum feel like part of the family with their care and attention. Due to her condition and not the easiest of people to deal
with, they took to her, settled her in and helped her feel at home. Thus giving all our family peace of mind that she safe and well cared for.

My Mum was cared for and looked after by the team at Tudor Lodge for 6 years. During the whole of that time, she was very happy and content there. She had previously lived alone for 4 years since the sad demise of her husband and was ready to be looked after and cosseted as she was by now, 91. She always
enjoyed the many activities carried out at Tudor Lodge and the excursions, including picnics, theatre visits, shows etc. She took part in quizzes, games, painting, crafts and singing - she so enjoyed music and singing of which there was plenty at Tudor Lodge if you wanted it. The food was excellent as was the care and kindness of the staff. She also enjoyed the company of other residents and made new friends. As she became older she also became very forgetful but was still very happy and still very well cared for at Tudor Lodge. Sadly, my Mum passed peacefully away in August but the care and kindness of everyone at Tudor Lodge was exemplary and I could not recommend a better place to be.

Throughout her stay of 3-years, my great aunt had the utmost care and compassion. She was always treated with kindness by all the management and staff. I was unable to visit often, but whenever I phoned or visited, the staff were most helpful with updating me on her welfare, which was appreciated.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Our Dad was a resident at Tudor Lodge for 18 months. When looking at care homes, we felt it had the right feel to it, well-run and homely. Dad quickly settled into life there, enjoying the many and varied activities on offer. He had a lovely room with some of his own furniture making it feel personal
to him. Dad was treated with kindness and compassion by all staff, and we were happy in the knowledge that he was safe, cared for professionally, well-fed and warm. The level of care he received was exemplary, nothing was too much trouble. The atmosphere is a happy one, visiting Dad, we were always welcomed with a friendly smile and the offer of a cuppa. Communication is excellent, and families are kept updated with regular emails and newsletters. They adapted to deal with the pandemic facilitating outside visits and video calls for us to see and speak to Dad. We are glad that we chose Tudor Lodge for Dad, and we would recommend them to families looking for a loving, caring and homely environment.

Our 93-year-old mother was understandably very apprehensive about moving away to a care home, having spent the previous 55-years in her bungalow. After seeing two other homes in our area, we then visited Tudor Lodge and were immediately impressed with the friendly greeting from the owner and his care
manager plus the amenities available. We had no hesitation in choosing it, and Mum settled in much quicker than we had expected thanks to the wonderful staff. Without exception, they were caring, warm and friendly, and nothing was too much trouble; they all showed genuine love and concern for her. Our family were frequent visitors to the home, and we were always warmly welcomed. Tudor Lodge is extremely well run by the friendly, efficient owner and his team, with excellent food and entertainment which is varied daily. Sadly Mum died recently, but we are so grateful that she spent her final 18-months happy and content in a wonderful home. We can not recommend it highly enough.

Mum moved into Tudor Lodge after a very successful respite stay. The staff are warm, caring and welcoming. Mum enjoys getting involved in activities with the other residents as well as having time in her own room which is large and spacious. For the first time in a while, Mum is safe, comfortable and
able to stop worrying about her tablets, meals and personal care. They have activities daily, the one thing that calms mum is being able to go for a walk. Staff have gone out of their way to make sure they have time to take her out. They have worked with the family to understand Mum's complex needs and support her. I enjoy visiting her, as the staff are so friendly and have made an effort to get to know all of us. All aspects of the home are clean and comfortable - the large sitting room and conservatory are very welcoming. Highly recommended for their understanding of the difficulties families and residents go through transitioning into residential care. Thank you all the team.

My mother was shown nothing but kindness and understanding. She was 83 years of age and had always lived in her own home, the last one for the past 40 odd years. So when she decided she couldn't manage on her own, we were tasked with finding her somewhere special. I am not kidding - when we visited
Tudor Lodge we were so impressed with the atmosphere there, almost like a well-loved country hotel. The staff were welcoming and always spent time with Mum, especially when she had a couple of 'wobbles' of not being in her own home. She was able to bring her own furniture and soon had her home in her room. Her dietary requirements were well met, she had company when she wanted it, she felt very special, especially when the staff told her she was a breath of fresh air. That made her day. I would be more than happy to go and live at Tudor Lodge and would recommend them to others.

Over the last three years, Tudor Lodge has excellently cared for my mother up to her death in December 2019 at the age of 94. She was kept clean and tidy by the careers. There is a wide range of activities providing stimulation and entertainment with regular external trips and a very varied menu with
any specific dietary needs taken care of. All the rooms, both individual and communal, are kept very clean. All in all, it has a very homely feeling with all members of staff making you very welcome and I thoroughly recommend it to anyone who has a loved one needing that bit of extra care.

My step mum was a resident of Tudor Lodge for 3 years. It was the happiest she had been since my father passed away. She had a comfortable room and was well looked after by the staff, participating in several activities. My wife and I enjoyed the friendliness of the staff on our regular visits and we
were always made welcome. Such a lovely environment.

During the two years my mother was a resident at Tudor Lodge, my sisters and I visited many times and always found the atmosphere homely and caring, and the food was good. My mother was always treated as an individual, with understanding, dignity and respect. There was an overall feeling of care and
compassion.

My grandmother really enjoys staying at Tudor Lodge. We always receive a warm welcome when we visit. The management and staff are lovely and the activities provided are fabulous. We've visited during arts and crafts, pottery, painting, quiz time, various musical entertainments and even during a visit
from some beautiful owls. The residents are well cared for and happy. I would definitely recommend Tudor Lodge to anyone looking for a care home in the area.

Having cared for my elderly mother at home for a number of years my wife and I were very apprehensive about accepting her decision to move to a care home. We arranged for a few trial visits before deciding that her move to Tudor Lodge would be a good thing. That was 18 months ago and we can honestly
say that it was the best decision we could have made. She is so well cared for that we have no reservations about the care provided by the staff who all appear to be sympathetic and caring people, well managed by proprietors who are obviously fully engaged in the welfare of all of their residents. My mother has definitely improved since her move to Tudor Lodge where she enjoys the activities, the company and the facilities. She is quite simply happier than she has been for years. it would be difficult to suggest any improvement to the standard of care provided, it is such a friendly and inclusive atmosphere where there is always something going on to engage and interest the residents.

In the 14 years that 4 different family members have been cared for by Tudor Lodge, the care has continually been exemplary.
I can honestly say that the whole system works. The care, the food, the cleanliness, the interest in the individual's needs, the interest in family members, the decor. Everything
is thought about. Well Done Tudor Lodge. Not many like you.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.954)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.954) out of 10 for Tudor Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.954 for Tudor Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (147 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 153 Ratings = 4.954

  • 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 Tudor Lodge is based on 13 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 28 registered maximum number of service users is 5.6, which has been reached with 13 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.
