West Lodge: The Home

The original West Lodge is a large stone built country house with extensive grounds and was originally used for the delivery of care at West Lodge Care home. With the opening of the new house all services are now provided within the purpose built and equipped residence.

Within the new house there are 60 bedrooms with en-suite facilities, electronic profiling beds and flat screen TVs. There are three lounge areas with wonderful views over the surrounding countryside, a large, airy conservatory, a dining room and several well equipped clinical rooms to provide medical assistance. There is also a dedicated hair salon and lift access to all floors.

The landscaped grounds that surround West Lodge are well kept and easily accessible by residents. They include extensive lawns, woodland and patio areas. Facilities in the village of Billy Row include a Post Office, general store, pub and church all centred around the village green. The market town of Crook is less than 2 miles away with regular bus links there and further afield to Bishop Aukland, Weardale, Darlington, Durham and Newcastle.

All in all West Lodge is wonderfully situated and ideally suited to a relaxing and stress free lifestyle.
