It was quite a wrench when I first left my home and moved into Pine Lodge, but from the very first day, all the staff and the other residents have made me feel so welcome and loved. Now this is my home and I am very happy. We are one Kent's finest care homes providing care for the elderly and people with dementia.
In addition to permanent care we also offer respite care for persons suffering from Parkinson's disease. Open to both private and social services funded clients, we have a wide variety of comfortable, clean and secure rooms to suit most financial and personal situations. Carers take great pride in the close relationships that are built by staff with the residents to create an atmosphere of truly being at home.

It is quite normal to be on the waiting list but not yet ready to take up residence. Our Registered Care Manager or Deputy Manager will assess your individual needs and usually encourage people to come to Pine Lodge for a visit and assessment, with an option to stay for lunch or even spend a trial day with us.
Pine Lodge has been carefully designed to provide a warm, safe and happy environment for our residents to enjoy their retirement to the best of their abilities. Fitted out to a very high standard, the facilities at Pine Lodge are some of the finest in Kent, supported by a wonderful reputation for our excellent loving care over the years.
At Pine Lodge, we firmly believe that the body and the mind are very closely linked and that keeping the body active, even for those who are perhaps less mobile than they once were, can also do wonders for their state of mind. As such, we have an Activities Co-Ordinator on the team, whose role it is to run a programme of pastimes to stimulate both body and mind.
