The facilities, staff and activities are outstanding. I am simply in awe of the constant professionalism and care given by the staff.
The drive for happiness and dignity of the residents is unparalleled for a care home. I am delighted and assured by the care given to my mother.

This home is so inviting and you are welcomed as soon as you ring the bell. The staff are so caring and there are no favourite residents all are treated the same. Everyone is so happy. Frequent entertainment is always on the agenda. I cannot find one wrong word to say about this home.
If there is a
problem one word to the manageress and it's sorted. I would give this home 5 stars.

My Grandma has been at Freckleton Lodge for about 8 months and I am simply amazed at the level of care continuously demonstrated. The aesthetics of the interior is bright, clean and fresh with lots of stimuli – and different rooms for the residents to rest in or enjoy activities. The activities arranged
are fantastic with regular music, dancing and live entertainment. But above all – and the icing on the cake – are the staff. Not just one or two - all of them are the most wonderful caring, happy people you could ever wish for looking after your relatives. They are utterly professional, always showing dignity to the residents but at the same time are fun and seem to love their jobs.


I can only hope - that if I ever need to be placed in a care home - I am put here – with the same staff, care and stimulus as is available today.

My mother has been a resident since January 2016, she was admitted from hospital and had been very poorly. The care she received from Freckleton Lodge meant that she improved from day one. She is very happy and settled. From my point of view it feels like a home from home when I visit, the staff are
always friendly and nothing is too much trouble. I would recommend to anyone.

My mother is very happy here and we (myself and my sister) are happy that she is here too. Every time we visit, you can feel the love and the care the staff give to everyone. Everything is done to make sure no one is left out, and feeling lonely.
The management and staff are wonderful.

My mum describes Freckleton Lodge as a " marvellous place" . She is extremely happy here. From the moment you enter you get a warm friendly, caring vibe. The staff are excellent and really care, adding little touches like putting a Christmas tree and advent calendar in everyone's room . They provide
a wide selection of activities . It's such a relief to know my mum is so well cared for.

The care home is by far the best I have come across. Staff are warm and caring and have helped my mum to recover significantly over a few weeks. The rooms are ideal with small en-suite, the overall persona is friendly and welcoming. There are plenty of planned fun social events which aids recovery.
My mum loves being there and the family are glad she has settled in so smoothly. It should be used as an example to many other care homes to bring up the standards that are sadly lacking in the vast majority.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

First visit to visit my sister and on arrival we were met with friendly staff who did not know we were visiting. There were five members of the family visiting at the same time. We all were offered refreshments and taken to a beautiful garden, other residents were sat out with sun hats provided for
the older people.
Amazingly decorated communal facilities, bedroom tastefully furnished, had a warm welcoming chat with staff re my sisters health and needs. The home was spotless and very tidy. Good choice of food for residents.


Many thanks and well done to all the staff.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (9.025)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (9.025) out of 10 for Freckleton 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 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 4 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 4.936 for Freckleton Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (44 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 47 Ratings = 4.936

  • 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 4.089 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Freckleton Lodge is based on 4 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 = 3.375

    • 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. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 5.6 = 0.714

  • 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.
