When my father-in-law needed full-time care, we wanted to find somewhere that felt right a place where he'd be comfortable and well looked after. From the moment we visited Castor Lodge, we were really impressed. The home itself is lovely, clean and well-kept, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. What really stood out, though, was the staff. Everyone has been so friendly and caring, making sure he's happy and looked after. A special shoutout to the manager she's been absolutely fantastic. We've had such a positive experience with Castor Lodge. It's given us real peace of mind knowing he's in good hands.

100% recommend castor lodge. My dad was in respite for 8 weeks, I can honestly say that the home is so welcoming and friendly. Nothing was to much trouble from any of the staff. They are all so caring about the residents and even the families aswell. We as a family would not hesitate in putting dad back into castor if needed. Once again thankyou all for caring!!

We visited many care homes to try to find the perfect place for our Mum including Caster Lodge. Along with its impressive appearance and beautiful rooms, more importantly we found staff interacting positively with residents. Many activities were being carried out and everyone looked so happy and content. We spoke to several residents along with their family members and no one had a negative word to say about the care given. On this basis we decided that we had eventually found the home that Mum would hopefully be happy in. Mums mood has drastically improved since moving into her ''new home'' she has made many friends including members of staff. She will often say '"I want to stay here for ever'' I think her comments speak for themselves.

I recently underwent major surgery and as I am sole carer for my wife, I booked a weeks respite care for myself for the period after leaving hospital and two weeks covering that time and my stay in hospital for my wife. This turned out to be an excellent decision. The care that I received was first class and I was secure in the knowledge that my wife was similarly being looked after. All of the staff were so friendly and helpful and I would recommend the home to anyone who is in need of care.

My father in law was in Castor Lodge and enjoyed his stay but it seems that personal belongings go missing and nobody seems bothered about it as when he passed they had lost his gold wedding ring and wallet but they are not bothered about investigating it as we were always told the items were in the safe but apparently it was a lie. So it seems that sticky fingers are about.

For a year, my friend lived in Castor Lodge Care Home and I visited him every 3 weeks or so when someone would drive me there as I am 92. I think it would not be possible to find a better care home in the whole country. The building is spacious, very well kept and is very welcoming. Very nice meals are provided each room cleaned daily, and lots of activities to join if residents choose. Totally first class.

I came for two weeks of respite care to give my family and myself a break. I found all the residents and staff were very welcoming and Castor Lodge came to be a real home from home. The care from all the staff was excellent and the food was first-class. There were lots of inclusive activities to suit all as well as quiet places to sit. You never feel alone here. Friends and family are always welcome. I look forward to visiting again soon. I did have an unexpected health problem whilst I was here which was dealt with promptly and professionally to the relief of my family. Thank you.

The care provided by everyone at Castor Lodge is excellent. My dad is content and the most relaxed I have seen him in a long time. There is always someone around who is happy to answer any questions I may have. I would happily recommend the care home to anyone.

My respite stay at Castor Lodge was excellent in all areas. New things can be very daunting when you are unwell, but the friendly and warm atmosphere was coupled with the obvious intention of every member of staff to make my stay enjoyable and relaxing. My thanks to all.

The care and professionalism shown to my relative have been superb. All staff are caring and loving, they go above and beyond to ensure residents feel special at what is a very difficult transition. Activities are amazing and much effort is put into obtaining views from residents and relatives. Medical updates and communication are very good. All queries have been promptly dealt with and resolved. My relative is safe, enriched and thriving at Castor Lodge Care Home.

The care home was comfortable and clean, the food was good, the staff were very kind, helpful and cheerful. I quite enjoyed my stay there while my daughter was on holiday and would recommend the whole service to friends.

I enquired about a stay at Castor Lodge Care Home to follow knee replacement surgery. I felt I needed somewhere for a short period to recover from surgery before going home. We live in a house with steep stairs and an upstairs loo! From my initial enquiry, I was dealt with nothing but kindness, efficiency and care. At the last minute, my surgery was brought forward by a few days, traumatic enough in itself but I wasn't to feel I'd be anything other than welcomed when I arrived even though it was a bank holiday. From the moment I arrived, somewhat bruised, battered and a little shocked, nothing was too much trouble. I had all the attention I needed at the touch of a button, was always dealt with kindly and the catering was wonderful, served every mealtime in my room with a smile. I can only thank everyone for making a traumatic experience much easier to bear. I only wish I'd been mobile enough to experience everything they had to offer. Thank you to everyone there!

My mother has settled remarkably well into Castor Lodge Care Home which is a great achievement for all concerned. The staff are attentive. All her needs are met and despite her being very adept at complaining, she is complimentary about the place. I am pleased that she has finally settled into a home where she is content and enjoying life to the best of her ability.

My husband went into Castor Lodge Care Home in March after four weeks in hospital. He was very weak and frail but has made very good progress with the excellent care at Castor Lodge. Castor Lodge has all the equipment needed for his care. As an owner of a care home and nursing home in the 70s, I know what I am talking about when I say there is nothing to complain about at Castor Lodge. All staff are kind and the home has a lovely atmosphere and is a pleasure to visit on a daily basis.

I felt very confident about Castor Lodge Care Home from the moment I first arrived to look around. The physical environment is fabulous with the home located on the edge of a lovely village with views out over the countryside. Residents have a lot of personal space and good facilities in their individual rooms and there are many smart and comfortable communal areas for activities and socialising, including well-kept gardens. The staff are amazing, caring, encouraging and supportive of residents and their families alike. There is always someone on hand to help and communication with the home is very easy. I have complete peace of mind that my parents are safe and cared for and their physical and emotional needs are being looked after very well.

The staff at the care home are always very welcoming, there is always a lovely, warm atmosphere. The range of activities varies from week to week which accommodates most people and the quality of the care given is done with empathy and compassion. Each resident is treated with respect and as an individual.

My mother moved here in August. It was a huge thing for her so close to her 102nd birthday. From the very first moment, she was made welcome and to feel safe and at home. She loves Castor Court, has made friends and looks so well now. Sprucely turned out, treated with respect and dignity. Our relief is palpable.
