About Ashdown Lodge
Ashdown Lodge provides residential and specialist dementia care for people aged 65 and over, including permanent placements and short-term respite stays. With 13 rooms, the home offers a smaller setting where individual care plans are designed to encourage independence and provide as much or as little support as each resident needs. Rooms have lift access, and residents can personalise them with their own belongings. A rear garden includes seating areas, while low window heights allow people seated or in bed to see outside. The home welcomes family visits at any time of day and offers care on hand throughout respite stays.

How much does Ashdown Lodge cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Ashdown Lodge for its weekly fee. As a guide, West Sussex council paid on average £1,046 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
