About Highborder Lodge
Here at Highborder Lodge, we provide residential care for older adults in the heart of Stonehouse, Gloucestershire. We are a care home that genuinely feels like a home, and that matters to us enormously. The people who live here are at the centre of everything we do, and we work hard to make sure each person feels known, respected and comfortable in their surroundings. We support a range of needs, including dementia care, residential care for older people, care for those living with a physical disability, and support for people with visual or hearing impairment. We also offer respite care for those who need a short term stay, whether that is to recover after a hospital admission or to give family members and carers a period of rest. Dementia care is something we approach with real thoughtfulness. We understand that living with dementia affects not just the individual but the whole family, and we aim to provide an environment that feels calm, familiar and reassuring. Our team takes time to understand each person's history, preferences and routines so that care feels personal rather than generic. For those coming to us for respite, we want the experience to feel as settled and unhurried as possible. A short stay should never feel like an interruption to life, and we do our best to make sure people feel genuinely welcome from the moment they arrive. We are proud to be part of the Stonehouse community, and we welcome anyone who would like to come and see us in person. A conversation over a cup of tea is often the best way to get a real sense of who we are and whether Highborder Lodge might be the right fit for you or your loved one.
