After a tough decision regarding my parents-in-law, to had to reside with them in a care home. The hard part was making a decision that would be best for them both. Although the dementia had gripped my father-in-law, my mother-in-law's memory is good, she has bad mobility so could not stay at home alone,
and they wanted to be together. We came across Cranswick by accident. We had a meeting with the manager, and met a few staff members, had a look around, and didn't need an appointment for this! They also could take my parents-in-law together. We did a respite period to see how they got on. And made this permanent a few weeks later. After worrying constantly when they lived at home, getting called in the early hours because my father-in-law was having hallucinations and my mother-in-law was scared. My mother-in-law is very opinionated & blunt, but she says she likes the food, the staff, and their room. To be able to visit, and leave, knowing they are safe, looked after, and cared for is priceless.

Cranswick Lodge, what a superb example of how a residential home should be and run. From management to every member of staff who made my dad's last few weeks in care a comfortable caring stay. I couldn't find any faults and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for perfect care for their loved
one. Thank you all.

Cranswick Lodge is how a good care home should be, they genuinely care not only for the resident but for the family. Respect and dignity were shown by everyone we encountered there. I really cannot thank them all enough for the service they provide. Always a friendly smile and the offer of a cuppa in
a clean and safe environment. Cannot rate them highly enough, perfect.

My mother has had a difficult time since July. The staff have been very supportive with both myself and my mum. She has advanced dementia and can be difficult at times but the staff have adapted to her changing needs and moods. The home has changed very much for the better over the past year and now
is homely and welcoming, with lots going on to keep the residents engaged and happy. This is down to the hard work of the manager and deputy manager and the great care staff and support staff.

My father needed residential care urgently on a permanent basis. The manager and deputy manager went above and beyond to make it happen quickly. My dad is extremely happy and content in the home and, most importantly, safe. The staff are all attentive and supportive. Excellent communication. The home
is clean and tidy. Excellent activities and my dad is enjoying regular home-cooked meals! I would have no hesitation in recommending this home.

Since the appointment of the new manager in 2022 at Cranswick Lodge, my mum is looked after to a very high standard. It has been transformed into such a nice place for mum to live. The team care about Mum and always do their very best to meet her needs and make her as comfortable as possible. My mum
is very happy here and sees the staff as her family. I very much appreciate that the manager always has time to discuss any concerns about Mum and she fully explains any changes that happen at the home and keeps me very well informed. I would not hesitate in recommending Cranswick Lodge as a home to anyone who needs care.

Took Dad for respite for two weeks with a view to calling Cranswick Lodge his 'forever home'. The manager and deputy manager, along with all their staff, could not do enough on the days my sister and I visited, and the day we then took dad, to the day he went to stay this month. They went out of their
way with all aspects of his care to make him feel welcome and safe in his environment, which he hadn't felt for a long time. After only the first day, he had settled in well and we felt confident all his needs would be met above and beyond. Thank you.

I visited my mother-in-law on her birthday and was very pleased with how I found her. I ate at Southlands and the food was very good. She seemed to be very well cared for which I was obviously very pleased about. The latest management structure seems to be much better than previously.

Southlands offers a well-managed and extremely caring environment. My lasting impression is that resident welfare is the overriding priority, with residents treated as if they are family members. Due to Mum's condition, I have visited at all times of the day, and the high quality of care is uniform
at all times. Southlands is clean and comfortable with all staff taking pride in their work. I have been very impressed with the amount of one-to-one time devoted to residents. I would highly recommend Southlands.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.745)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.745) out of 10 for Cranswick Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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 4.745 for Cranswick Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (252 Excellents x 5) + (67 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 326 Ratings = 4.745

  • 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 Cranswick Lodge is based on 28 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 48 registered maximum number of service users is 9.6, which has been reached with 28 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.
