Welcome to Ivy Gate Lodge
At Ivy Gate Lodge, our team and residents provide a warm welcome to all who enter the home. In my experience, it is this that makes a true difference. The core value of Ivy Gate Lodge is to encourage all residents to maintain their independence and continue to enjoy their later years with the knowledge that our team is here to offer support as and when required. We have a passion for delivering exceptional, discreet care in relaxing surroundings and pride ourselves on providing comfort and convenience through a variety of luxury facilities and daily activities.
