About Laxfield House
Laxfield House offers residential care, 24-hour nursing care, respite stays and convalescent support for older people in the Sudbury area. The nursing team works with residents and families to understand personal preferences and create care plans around assessed needs. Personalised 24/7 nursing care is available for residents who need ongoing clinical and personal support.
The home also welcomes people seeking security and companionship while remaining fairly independent, as well as those needing more help. A named nurse key worker supports familiarity, and an activities coordinator maintains a daily programme. Cooks work with residents and nursing staff on balanced menus that reflect nutritional needs and personal enjoyment. Short-term stays can include the same activities and services as longer stays.

Questions families ask
Do they offer short-term respite care?
Yes. They provide short-term respite residential or nursing care, giving residents, families or carers a break from regular daily care duties.
What do respite residents receive during a short stay?
Respite residents are encouraged to enjoy the same activities, entertainment and services as longer-term residents while being made welcome and comfortable.
Is nursing care available around the clock?
Yes. Nursing care provides 24-hour personal care and attention according to the patient’s assessed needs.
How much does Laxfield House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Laxfield House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Suffolk council paid on average £1,058 a week for a nursing care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £1,102 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
