About Blakelands Lodge
Blakelands Lodge provides residential and dementia care for older people, with support in a residential care-home setting. The home is part of Bridge Oak Care Homes and is presented as a Bedfordshire service for people and families considering long-term care or short-term support.
Its wider provider offer includes respite care and nursing care, although the supplied branch information specifically identifies Blakelands Lodge with residential and dementia care. The wider evidence also lists home features and daily-life facilities associated with the group, while detailed branch-specific accommodation and activities are not set out. Families can therefore focus enquiries on the individual support available for the resident’s needs.

Questions families ask
How is care tailored to each resident?
Care is planned around each resident’s needs, preferences, routines and interests. Support may include personal care, day-to-day assistance and help with dietary requirements.
Do they provide dementia care?
Yes. They provide residential dementia care as well as residential care in Bedfordshire.
How much does Blakelands Lodge cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Blakelands Lodge for its weekly fee. As a guide, Central Bedfordshire council paid on average £993 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.
