The Cedars Care Home in the New Forest

The Cedars is a beautiful and friendly care home in the village of Landford, 10 miles from Salisbury on the edge of the New Forest National Park. Our warm and inviting residence provides the comforts of home with 24-hour residential and nursing support for older people. We also provide specialist dementia care for individuals on different stages of their dementia journey, and respite care is available for those requiring shorter stays.

Residential Care

We welcome residents in to our bespoke, newly refurbished community. New residents can choose between the traditional features of Old Cedars and the more modern style of the new wing for their bedroom. We also have woodlands, ornate gardens and raised beds, which are perfect for fresh air and socialising.

Our activities coordinators plan a wide range of activities for each day of the week, from picnics in the New Forest and pub lunches to dancing and live entertainment. If it’s sunny, staff try and get outside, so everyone can appreciate the best of the day. Residents vote on what they would like to do in monthly activity meetings, and make comments in their satisfaction surveys, so that staff can be sure everyone’s looking forward to something, every day.

Technology has opened up the world for residents here at The Cedars. From meeting a great-grandchild for the first time on Skype to a live virtual tour of an art exhibition in Copenhagen, staff are on hand to guide residents through the wonders of new and exciting technology.

Dementia Care

We provide specialist support for individuals living with dementia in our bespoke Memory Lane Community, where care is focused on independence, dignity and choice, with a person centred approach. We have also invested in a 'Magic Table' for our home, an interactive light projector designed to support people living with dementia through mentally and physically stimulating games.
