A Warm Welcome to Bishopsmead Lodge Care Home in Bristol

You’ll find Bishopsmead Lodge Care Home situated in a pleasant residential area overlooking Kings Head Lane Park and the local bowling club.

Bishopsmead Lodge Care Home in Bristol is around the corner from the bus stop, making us easily accessible for visitors to pop-in for a chat.

A family member recently said “Mum is so well looked after by all the carers, the food is amazing – she, herself, is very happy here. The staff, from the manager, admin, cleaners, laundry, activities, cooks and all the carers are lovely. I leave and know Mum is in good hands.”

We believe just because someone moves into a care home, that doesn’t mean they should stop doing the things they love. That’s why we provide an ever-changing activities programme inspired by residents’ interests and needs. There’s something for everyone including:

  • Access to the bowling club,
  • Great community links to schools and services
  • Playing with our two pet rabbits (Sooty and Sweep)

Key Information

We provide care for those who are publicly funded as well as those paying for their own care.

It’s important to get professional advice on the best way to fund the cost of care and we suggest that you take advice from a care fees expert to make sure that you have explored all the options available to you.

In order to make life easier we have contacted a national care fees planning specialist, Symponia who are dedicated to the financial issues of later life, in particular the payment of care fees. Through Symponia’s network of carefully selected and qualified financial advisers they offer you and/or your family member empathic, bespoke advice on the best way to fund weekly care fees. This approach ensures that not only are all our residents and their families aware of the legislation and how it works but they are able to explore all the financial options available to them.

It should be noted that Four Seasons Health Care and Symponia operate completely independently with no commission or financial benefit to Four Seasons Health Care as a result of your conversation or contract.
