About Cedar Lodge
Cedar Lodge provides specialist residential dementia care in a home designed for people who need structured, individual support. Long-term care, respite stays and palliative care are available, with care plans built around each resident’s history, preferences and changing needs. Short-term respite stays can support recovery after illness or provide a break for a regular carer.
Bedrooms include en-suite options, while shared spaces include lounges, a music room, sensory gardens and a reminiscence courtyard. Activities range from arts and crafts to sensory sessions and outdoor time, helping residents maintain routines, independence and meaningful engagement. Families are welcomed as partners in care and can arrange a visit or discuss individual requirements.

Questions families ask
Can they arrange a respite stay after illness or for a carer’s break?
Yes. Cedar Lodge arranges flexible respite stays for recovery after illness or a regular carer’s break, with access to the same care, activities and gardens as long-term residents.
How is dementia care personalised at Cedar Lodge?
They use visual cues and familiar memorabilia to support orientation, while specialist-trained staff build care around each resident’s history and preferences to help maintain independence.
What support does Cedar Lodge provide for palliative care?
They work alongside GPs and district nurses to deliver personalised palliative care plans that respect each resident’s wishes and prioritise dignity and comfort.
Can families arrange a care home tour before deciding?
Yes. Cedar Lodge welcomes home tours so people can see the setting, meet the team and discuss suitable care options before making a decision.
How many residents can Cedar Lodge support?
Cedar Lodge supports up to 39 residents, working closely with them and their families to provide personalised care.
How much does Cedar Lodge cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Cedar Lodge for its weekly fee. As a guide, Somerset council paid on average £1,135 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.
