About Compton Lodge
Compton Lodge provides personal, dementia and respite care for older people in Swiss Cottage, London. The home is part of Central & Cecil, a not-for-profit housing and care provider whose teams consider residents’ physical, mental, emotional and spiritual needs.
Its care approach focuses on what residents can do, while the home describes a 5:1 resident-to-staff ratio, long-serving permanent staff and limited use of agency workers. Families may therefore find Compton Lodge relevant when continuity and a more personal care structure matter. The service is based in a historic house with gardens, and the provider also publishes a brochure for the home.

How much does Compton Lodge cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Compton Lodge for its weekly fee. As a guide, Camden council paid on average £1,101 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.
