“We have no doubt the level of care and compassion they provide is the reason she is with us today. Her quality of life is far better – varied and stimulating and she is very happy to call it “home”. It gives our family great comfort knowing they are providing the best care she needs at this time of her life. We highly recommend Cedar Lodge.”
“Without exception all the staff are wonderful and they are deeply committed to what they do because it comes from the heart and there is a real sense of community amongst them. Nothing is too much trouble for them and they are always proactive in attending to my wife’s needs…Cedar Lodge is without doubt exceptional for what they do and I cannot thank them enough.”
“My mum has been a resident at Cedar Lodge for just over a year and is approaching her 101st birthday. She is very settled and is looked after very well. The staff are so caring and nothing is too much trouble. We visited many homes prior to choosing Cedar Lodge and definitely think we made the best choice. There’s always so much variety in terms of activities and a lovely atmosphere.”

“Mum has been in Cedar Lodge for over a year, and she calls it her home as the team at Cedar Lodge have made it this way for her. The care and thought the team put into the smallest details is outstanding. From the chef checking on meal requirements to the nursing care (which is exceptional) and all the care and activities. As a team together they work to ensure that each person is special in their own home.”
“The decision to move a loved one into a nursing home is not easy. The staff at Cedar Lodge have been sensitive and caring of the whole family during this time of transition. After a visit we leave our loved one knowing they are getting kind, compassionate and attentive care.”
“I want to thank you so much Nenita for arranging the wonderful Mother’s Day yesterday. The afternoon tea was absolutely delightful with all the girls, it was a real treat! I’ve told the staff it was the best Mother’s Day I’ve ever had! We had such a laugh with all the different characters, of whom you have many! It’s a great personality mix, I really love that. You deserve all the accolades you receive; you and your staff work so hard to make Cedar a very special place. I think you should advertise it as a care hotel rather than a care home. Keep up the wonderful work. Your staff are a real credit to you.”
