It took my father a while to get used to being in this home, but I can honestly say once he had settled in he was treated very well. The staff are very good and although my father never wanted to go into a home, once he had been there for a while he never wanted to go home again. The looked after
him from leaving hospital until he passed away, and although there are a few small things I complained about whilst he was there, I know now that he was in the best place for him and his condition.
I would definitely recommend Lancaster Grange, initially it seems expensive, but when you compare with what else is available and the level of care they offer and they excellent care staff they have then I think there is nowhere better in the area.

Am a resident in this care home. This company has care homes all over. The manager helped me get to my grandson's wedding in Ipswich and organised for me to have this special day by organising for me to go to another Barchester home for a few days. I travelled in the minibus with a driver and carer
and they collected me for returning also. This day was so special to me but they sorted it for me and I had an amazing time. If I had missed this day I would have been very sad but they made it happen and it was a smooth and stress free time.

My husband came here for respite care after an accident left him in a wheelchair and unable to come back to our home until adaptations had been done.
He had a great time at Lancaster Grange and was looked after so well. In fact I don't think he really wanted to come home!
The place is beautiful and
the food is lovely but what stood out for us is the staff. Always smiling and very welcoming.
I saw the way they were with the elderly residents when they don't realise your watching and they have so much love and compassion for everyone. It's like one big family. Thank you for looking after us all the past two months. We will miss you! Xxx

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

This is an outstanding care home. The care home manager and all her team work so hard to make life as good as it can be for my friend and all the residents around. The manager is there long hours sometimes and always visits the residents. The gardens are divine and the walk around the outside is lovely
and it's even safe.
The home is welcoming and as soon as you step in you can feel the warmth and welcome. It's sad when you hear people moan sometimes about things in life but these residents are so well cared for and good amounts of staff are around 7 days a week.
I have had the experience of other care settings but this is the best around this area for sure. Highly recommended and has en-suite shower rooms. There are activities and even when my friend didn't want to attend the crowds, they got a one to one provision from care people or activities. Also the manager is visible and think it's fabulous that's she will help where needed and is many times out in the areas of living.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.813)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.813) out of 10 for Barchester Lancaster Grange Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 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 4.813 for Barchester Lancaster Grange Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (128 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 155 Ratings = 4.813

  • 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 Barchester Lancaster Grange Care Home 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, 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.

Charles Sadler

Job Title: General Manager

Joined: 2018

Hi, my name is Charles, and I am the General Manager here.


I have worked for Barchester since 2018. I have recently relocated from Wokingham with my wife and 3 children. Family and people are important to me and I have worked in healthcare since 1998, initially with the NHS, before moving to roles on a regional level with various learning disability charities, and more recently, other elderly care providers.


I think very highly of Barchester, and I have always admired our robust, organised and well-managed company, and have added Lancaster Grange's and my family feel to make our wonderful home a well-rounded environment.


You will struggle to find a more open and inclusive place for the most important people in all our lives to receive the care they deserve.


I look forward to welcoming you to our home.
