What others have to say

Here are just some of the comments we’ve received from family, friends and residents at Harrier Lodge care home.

The people working there are so welcoming and the place is spotless and very well presented… nice lighting, nice decor, nice furniture in the rooms for residents... not at all dull like other homes I have been to. As soon as you enter, you know the residents are the most important people in the building.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

All the staff know who I am and who I am there to see. When I walk by, they will smile and chat with me... lovely people. They involve us as a family in our loved one's care, they keep us informed of his progress and let us know if he is not eating well or feeling a bit down in the dumps. We are made to feel involved and part of the team. 

Relative of a resident, March 2024

It is a happy and friendly environment and our loved one is very happy there. It is the friendliness of the staff, they genuinely care for him. They seem to go over and above to care for him… really look after him as a person, not just a resident.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

I always find the staff very happy people, which means a lot in the environment where the people are confused as it is a dementia home. It is very clean, and everyone is engaging.

Relative of a resident, August 2023

The care and attention is excellent and very professional.
