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.

I just wanted to let you know how totally overwhelmed and impressed I’ve been with the care and kindness my mum received in the four and a bit months she was a resident at Mildenhall lodge, especially the staff in Miller Suite. Everyone has been so amazing and kind.

Relative of a resident, January 2024

Anything that goes on with my mum I'm fully informed and very happy with the care she receives.

Relative of a resident, August 2023

We are satisfied with everything! We are happy with my mum's total care and how happy she is. They do lots of activities and take photos which they put on Facebook so you have the contact when you are not there.

Relative of a resident, August 2023

The team give excellent care. Staff are very caring and they go above and beyond.

Relative of a resident, August 2023

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.
