Field House is an elegant Edwardian care home located in a quiet residential area at the heart of the Harpenden community. Providing high-quality residential care and nursing care in a warm, friendly and homely environment, the home welcomes individuals with a range of care needs, including those living with Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease. Situated in the popular Hertfordshire town of Harpenden, the home is within easy reach of local shops, amenities and transport links, while maintaining strong connections with the surrounding community.

Field House accommodates up to 35 residents and has been providing care in Harpenden for more than 40 years. Our home offers a close-knit and personalised environment where residents quickly feel settled with their surroundings and the people around them. The experienced team takes pride in knowing each resident personally, helping to create meaningful relationships and a strong sense of belonging. Originally a large private residence, the home retains many of its period features, including an oak-panelled lounge, elegant fireplace, and decorative ceilings, while incorporating modern comforts and facilities throughout.

Residents can enjoy beautifully maintained secluded gardens, complete with shaded pergolas that provide pleasant outdoor spaces during warmer months. A dedicated Activities Team organises a varied programme of events and experiences based on residents' interests and preferences. Activities include live entertainment, exercise sessions, arts and crafts, local trips and outings further afield. Residents are encouraged to contribute ideas and help shape the monthly activities calendar, ensuring activities remain engaging and meaningful.

As an active member of the Harpenden community, Field House regularly hosts and participates in local events. Popular initiatives such as the Community Companions Café, along with visits from local schools, entertainers, and community groups, help residents maintain connections with the people and places that are important to them.

Residents receive compassionate, person-centred care that promotes dignity, independence, and wellbeing. The team works closely with residents and their families to create tailored care plans that reflect individual needs, preferences, and life experiences. Support is designed to help residents maintain meaningful relationships, continue lifelong interests and enjoy fulfilling daily lives.

Family and friends are welcome to visit at any time through the home's open-door visiting policy.
