About Springfield Lodge Care Home
Nestled in the quiet village of West Rainton in County Durham, Springfield Lodge Care Home offers a peaceful retreat and a welcoming community where compassion meets comfort.
Our well-appointed and spacious rooms provide a homely private environment, while communal spaces are designed to foster a sense of community and belonging and encourage social interaction.
The Home has close bonds with the local community, with many neighbours being Dementia Friends and Champions.
Whether it’s having a cup of tea in the lounge, or enjoying the sun in one of the courtyards, Springfield Lodge feels like family.
