I can't thank the manager and his staff enough for their support. My mother suffers from Dementia and the home she was in could not manage. Willett Lodge has a life saving dementia crisis bed. Mother moved in on same day and within 48 hours she was a totally different person. Happy and settled. The home is not a 5 star hotel but they know their care better than the 5 star care home she was in, who were not able to manage her.

Report
A fantastic care home for the elderly with dementia. My mother was at willett lodge for 3 weeks respite. When she left she was a totally different person. She had gained weight and was able to stand unaided. The staff are lovely and very approachable. The manager is great and really cares. So glad my mother was at willett.
