About Woodside Lodge

Dementia care for older people is the central focus at Woodside Lodge, a family-run residential home with support for independent living. Its 20 rooms include larger companion rooms, while 12 have en-suite facilities. The home occupies nearly four acres on the edge of the New Forest.

Meals are prepared on site, with special diets catered for and breakfast available in residents’ rooms. Activities support stimulation and social interaction, and the all-inclusive fee covers accommodation, food and social activities. Breakfast can be served in your room for residents who prefer that arrangement or need support at mealtimes.

How much does Woodside Lodge cost?

The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Woodside Lodge for its weekly fee. As a guide, Hampshire council paid on average £1,214 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.
