The atmosphere in the home is quite nice. The staff are very welcoming and responsive, which is the most important thing for me. The place smells fresh, unlike you can find in some other homes.

Home is always welcoming, I don't get the chance to visit often but I'm made to feel comfortable and at ease when I do visit. No pressure to leave, always welcome - It's just like visiting my Grandmother at her home.

When it became apparent that my nan needed residential care, we looked around several nursing homes local to us and were very disappointed with the standards that we saw. We were told of a vacancy at Tallington Lodge by social services and while this is 45mins from us and at the time the facilities
were not as modern as those we had looked at nearer home, the feeling we got when looking around was one of care and concern for the residents. This has continued during the renovation work and its great to see my nan happy and content with where she is living.


I have been visiting several times when the residents have been dancing or playing bingo and had a great time joining in.

I am very happy at Tallington, I am well cared for and the staff are always there for you no matter how little the problem is. Meals are very good and the home itself is absolutely lovely a good friendly atmosphere throughout. I can't fault anything.

My friend has been at Tallington for a while now. She only came in for respite and now is staying. She is very particular so her deciding to stay must say a lot about her preference for Tallington.

I found the staff very friendly and efficient. The customer relations manager, who helped us navigate the process was very welcoming and helpful. Not having been through the process before, we were a bit at sea but he answered all our questions and made us feel at ease. Dad's diet, being pureed, makes
it difficult to say much about the food. He seemed to like it though and the only thing I would say was that the portions did not look very much but that could be down to it being pureed.

Staff are very kind and caring. They are also understanding which I think is very important. They avoid making my husband feel embarrased, which gives me peace of mind.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.746)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.746) out of 10 for Tallington Lodge Care Home 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 29 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 4.746 for Tallington Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (273 Excellents x 5) + (56 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 343 Ratings = 4.746

  • 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 Tallington Lodge Care Home 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 61 registered maximum number of service users is 12.2, 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.
