Cottee Lodge was established in a former convent, run by German nuns, which had 18 rooms and had formerly been a children's home. The Wesley Central Mission was able to fund its purchase after receiving a large donation from Mrs Lois Cottee, in honour of her husband Harold Spencer Cottee.
Gordon Moyes states this home opened in the 1980s, but the Wesley Mission bicentenary site states that it opened in 1991. Moyes states that it was still open in 2007.
