Overall Experience

The kindness and attention given to my husband when he was resting in the Lodge for 3 weeks were excellent and very caring. Also when he passed away on 15/01/23 the courtesy and patience shown were second to none, not only to my husband but me and my nephew. The home was very clean and welcoming when

we entered at all times, the biggest praise I should give was to all the staff, and incredible people, thank you. I would highly recommend this home to anyone.

I visited a 97-year-old friend today. We had a warm welcome from the staff. My friend said he felt safe and comfortable and that the meals were good!

Overall Experience

Having stayed here on some respite care, the staff are exceptional and very polite. Nothing is a bother, and they go out of their way to accommodate. The room is spacious, very comfortable and warm. The food is great and all home-cooked.

Overall Experience

My Father-in-law has just spent 3 nights in emergency respite. We are so grateful for the respect and dignity he was treated with by the staff. They were so helpful and professional from admittance through to discharge.
Finding somewhere for a loved one who needs help is incredibly difficult, so I

sincerely hope this review not only shows our appreciation of the care he was given but also helps give others the confidence to use this facility.
Thank you again.

Overall Experience

My father went into Barrington Lodge Care Home last year as he was wandering, neglecting himself and not washing. Now he is like a different man; he's always spotlessly clean; he said it's a fabulous hotel, the food is amazing, and he loves it. The staff are all amazing; he really gets on with two members

of staff. I couldn't ask for a better team to look after him; the relief I feel knowing he is safe, and most of all, happy is priceless.

My friend has been staying here for the last 7 months and during the coronavirus pandemic the staff have been very accommodating in assisting with FaceTime calls with him. He has settled very well and says they treat him like a king and is continually praising the staff for their hard work.

Overall Experience

I think that the staff have been very good during the Coronavirus.
We have been able to call and FaceTime our relative whenever we have needed to.
The Facebook page also keeps us updated too.
We can see our relative is very happy and that makes us very happy. We just wish we could see him in person

and give him a hug.
Hopefully not much longer to wait.

Overall Experience

My Dad has been in Barrington Lodge for over a year. He settled in very well. The staff are very friendly and caring and always on hand if I need to talk to them. Dad's health is always monitored as he suffers from COPD and Alzheimers. They are aware of changes and if he needs medical attention it is

dealt with promptly. He enjoys his meals too. On the negative side, I found the rooms could be kept cleaner, with more hoovering and wiping of surfaces. The toilet sometimes needs a good clean and in general, the furnishings look a bit tired. In general, I would say I feel happy with my Dad being in there. He is safe and looked after by lovely people.
