Our Home
Wantsum Lodge is a friendly, welcoming care home in Ramsgate where residents are supported to live life on their own terms. Whether your loved one needs residential care, dementia support or a short respite stay, our team takes time to get to know them — their routines, their preferences, and what makes them feel at home.
Set in the heart of Ramsgate, close to the harbour, local shops and cafés, the home makes it easy for families to visit and for residents to stay connected to the community they know. It’s a place where life still feels relaxed, sociable and full of choice.
Every new resident is introduced to a dedicated team member who becomes their main point of contact. This is the person who helps with day-to-day things, listens when something’s on their mind, and keeps you updated on how they’re settling in. It’s a simple approach, but families tell us it makes the move into care feel much less daunting.
We’d love to welcome you for a visit. Come and see the home, meet the team, and find out if Wantsum Lodge is the right fit for your family.

Our dedicated team at Wantsum Lodge Care Home
Our team takes time to learn what makes each resident tick, from daily habits to the stories they love telling. That understanding shapes everything we do, whether it's personal care, planning activities, or simply having a chat. Staff are trained to support residential, dementia, and respite needs, always with warmth and respect. Families tell us they feel part of things from the very first visit, and that's how it should be. If you're passionate about care and looking for a rewarding career, we'd love to hear from you.
