Belmont Lodge is a residential care home in a quiet part of Chigwell, Essex, offering residential care, dementia care and respite care for people aged 65 and over. It is a friendly, settled home where team members know every resident well, and where each person chooses how they spend their day.
The home has 40 bedrooms, most with en suite bathrooms, and residents are encouraged to bring their own furniture, photographs and belongings. There are five day rooms, with lounges and a dining room looking out over the gardens, along with a hair and beauty salon, a library and a secure patio garden.
Meals are freshly prepared each day in our own kitchen, with menus developed with residents. There is a full programme of activities and entertainment every week, with regular trips out, and family and friends are welcome to visit and join in with events through the year. We look forward to welcoming you to Belmont Lodge.
Belmont Lodge provides residential care and residential dementia care for long-term and respite stays. Team members are on hand day and night to help with personal care and everyday routines, while supporting each resident to stay as independent as they can. Every resident has a personal care plan, written with them and their family and reviewed as their needs change. The local GP visits regularly, along with a chiropodist, optician and other visiting professionals, and we also offer post-operative care for short stays after time in hospital.
For residents living with dementia, familiar things matter. We keep to the routines people know, and encourage everyone to bring photographs, keepsakes and their own furnishings, so their room feels like theirs. Residents and families get to know the same faces, and the team gets to know them.
Staying active and keeping up with interests is a big part of life here. Our activities team plans a varied programme each week, from art workshops, flower arranging and quizzes to live performances, musical evenings and visiting speakers, and residents decide how much or how little they take part in. The lounges are where people gather to watch a film or sport on the widescreen TV, and the library and quiet reading rooms are there for a restful afternoon.
Alongside activities in the home, there are regular trips out with Myley, visits to the local shops and park, garden parties and barbecues in the summer, and celebrations for birthdays and special occasions, which family and friends are welcome to join
Meals are freshly prepared each day in our own kitchen. Menus are developed with residents, and our kitchen team caters for individual dietary needs, including texture-modified and diabetic diets. Mealtimes are a social part of the day: the dining room looks out over the gardens, and in warmer weather meals and afternoon tea are often served on the patio.

Relocating to a residential care centre can be a complex time. Residents benefit from sensitive support and reassurances that the care, private accommodation, and assistance we offer are the right match for their needs. Our coordinators liaise with every person and family in advance to ensure our facilities and care specialisms meet their requirements, including for prospective residents with ongoing health conditions or dementia, with a structured process to put a personalised care plan in place.
Belmont Lodge has a multidisciplinary care team that focuses on warmth and friendships, ensuring that practical and personal care is delivered with kindness and respect. Residents are encouraged to visit us before their moving-in day with their loved ones to explore our suites and gardens, meet some of the care team, and ask any questions they might have.
Due to demand, we often have a waiting list but do everything possible to accommodate new enquiries. To avoid disappointment, we recommend getting in touch as soon as possible if you anticipate needing a room at Belmont Lodge. In the meantime, our administrator or manager will be happy to arrange a convenient time for an in-person visit and a guided tour so you can see how a typical day might look.
