Lavender Fields offers modern en-suite rooms, landscaped gardens, terraces, and peaceful views across the Kent countryside in a calm, purpose-built care home.
Greensleeves Care’s Home for Life funding assurance means that if a resident’s personal funds are ever depleted, they will be supported to stay in the place they call home. This helps residents remain in their chosen care home, surrounded by the people and spaces they know, and gives families peace of mind.
We provide day and night support with everyday living, from getting dressed and taking medication to enjoying meals and activities. Each resident has a personalised care plan shaped around their needs, routines, and preferences, helping them keep as much independence as possible. Our person-centred approach means we take time to know each person properly, so they feel comfortable, respected, and supported as they settle into daily life with us.
At Lavender Fields we support people living with dementia in a safe, calm, and supportive environment. We have a specialist dementia care floor designed around their needs and run by a dedicated Care Unit Manager. Our trained team uses familiar routines, meaningful activities, and gentle reassurance to help residents feel secure, understood, and valued. We also work closely with families, keeping them involved and informed, so every person receives care that protects their dignity, comfort, and sense of self.
We offer short-term respite care for older people who need extra support after an illness, hospital stay, or operation, or when a carer needs time to rest. A respite stay can also work as a gentle trial stay before making longer-term decisions. During their time with us, residents receive personalised care, freshly prepared meals, activities, and friendly support, giving families peace of mind.
We provide end-of-life care with compassion, dignity, and sensitivity, supporting residents and families through an emotional time. Our team focuses on comfort, reassurance, and personal wishes, while working closely with families and healthcare professionals where needed. We respect each resident’s routines, beliefs, and preferences, helping them feel calm, cared for, and surrounded by kindness in familiar, supportive surroundings.
Our accommodation has been designed to feel bright, calm, and easy to settle into. We offer 75 ample single bedrooms, with most including their own en-suite wetroom for privacy and comfort. Residents are welcome to bring familiar furniture or personal touches, helping their room feel more individual. Many spaces enjoy natural light, with terraces and garden access creating a gentle connection to the outdoors. Practical features such as lift access, wheelchair access, phone points, television points, and internet access help daily life feel simple and supported.
The setting is a real part of daily life, with landscaped gardens, terraces on each floor, and peaceful views across the Kent countryside. Residents can spend time outdoors when they wish, enjoy fresh air with family, or simply watch the seasons change. Inside, there are welcoming lounges, dining rooms, a library, an activity room, a cinema, a bar, and a hair salon. These shared spaces give residents choice, whether they want quiet time, company, a pamper session or somewhere comfortable to enjoy a cup of tea.
Food is part of feeling cared for, so meals are freshly prepared to be nourishing, enjoyable and suited to individual needs. Lavender Fields was among the first UK care homes to gain RaisingNutrition accreditation, recognising its commitment to fresh, nutritious, whole-food meals that are balanced, flavourful, and visually appealing. Residents can look forward to a variety of dishes, friendly dining rooms, and the chance to eat with others in a relaxed, social setting. Preferences, routines and dietary requirements are catered for, helping every mealtime feel comfortable.
Activities are planned to support wellbeing, confidence, and connection, not simply to fill the day. Residents can enjoy a varied programme shaped around their interests, abilities and routines, from gentle exercise and music to creative sessions, films, games and time in the garden. The activity room, cinema, library, and shared lounges all help create opportunities for both group moments and quieter one-to-one support. Seasonal events, trips into Seal and beyond and everyday conversations also bring families, residents, and the wider community together.
At Lavender Fields, our fees are comprehensive and tailored to each resident’s needs. They cover fully personalised care around the clock, accommodation and furnishings, all meals and utilities, activities, and more. And, as we have no shareholders, every penny goes back into care and enhancing our residents’ lives.
We accommodate a range of funding options, including self-funding, local authority support and NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC). We guide individuals and families through the funding process and support residents in remaining in care if their private funds are depleted.

Yes, we offer short-term respite care and a no-obligation trial of up to six weeks with all permanent stays. This can be helpful after an illness, hospital stay or operation, or when a carer needs time to rest. It also gives your loved one the chance to experience daily life with us before making a longer-term decision.

We focus on helping each resident maintain their sense of self, dignity and comfort as their needs change. Families are kept involved, so care feels joined up, personal and consistent.
We know moving into a care home can feel emotional for both residents and families, so we take time to make the process feel as gentle as possible. Before moving in, we get to know your loved one’s needs, preferences, routines and background. This helps us create a personalised care plan from the start. Families are encouraged to stay involved, and our team offers settling-in support so residents feel welcomed, understood and reassured.
