Lovely and well presented facility. Gives off a warm and homely atmosphere compared to many other homes.
This is an outstanding Aged Care Facility. My Nan was a resident there for several years until her passing at 98 years old. Staff were always very caring and genuinely interested in ensuring all residents received the best care as possible. Barrington Lodge is a beautiful building set amongst well maintained gardens.
Visiting a happy friend living here hes very happy there amazing rose garden verry friendly staff excelent chef high class meals and presentation
My dear grand mother spent her last moments here. Staff appeared friendly tho a lot of foreigners and the elder generations dont tollerate things they arent used to too much. And quite often when id visit the toilet was dirty and asking for help to take Nan outside for a walk seemed to be like hard work for the staff. Not my most recommended place
