Mildenhall Lodge

Welcome to Mildenhall Lodge

Mildenhall Lodge is a ‘good’ rated care home that delivers personalised care for older people. Everything about Mildenhall Lodge is focused on enabling residents to get the most out of every day, whatever their needs and abilities.

Our purpose-built care home is located close to the heart of the ancient town of Mildenhall in Suffolk. The home has been designed to give residents maximum space, choice and luxury. Each of the 60 bedrooms is spacious and has its own en-suite facilities plus quality furnishings and fittings. The home has its own bar, as well as a cinema, hair salon and café.

We even have our own pet dog – a lovely lurcher called Sinbad. Residents decided they’d like a home pet, so we made it happen - he’s become the star of Mildenhall Lodge.

We pride ourselves on the transparency of our care quality and fee information - ensuring you can trust us to care from that very first step.

What others have to say

Here are just some of the comments we’ve received from family, friends and residents at Mildenhall Lodge care home.

My first impressions of Mildenhall Lodge is its very welcoming as you go into the home, several people on reception and well organised. It is an extremely clean home, the care is excellent, and my sister-in-law is looked after extremely well.

Relative of a resident, April 2023

The staff on her ward are good, can't fault the caring, they're brilliant. I give my hats off to the girls, most of them treat her like she is their mum. 

Relative of a resident, April 2023

It's like walking into your home, they make everybody feel welcome. The staff get everybody to join in and get everyone up and for a walk-about, they want everyone involved. 

Relative of a resident, April 2023

They have given my husband absolutely superb care. They keep me informed constantly.

Relative of a resident, April 2021

They always keep in touch to let you know what is going on and I can phone them anytime. I can ring and they will get my mum and I can have a little chat with her. They have done exceptionally well. Different residents have different issues to mum and I do not know how they do it. I am grateful there are people like them.
