Tucked away in a quiet residential area just half a mile from Fareham town centre, Hartwell Lodge offers a peaceful place to call home. The home provides a full range of care – including residential, dementia, palliative, respite, and day care – all under one roof, with compassion at its core.
Hartwell Lodge is often described as feeling like one big family – a sense of connection that’s reflected in daily life throughout the home.
Each bedroom is individually decorated and features its own en-suite, providing both comfort and privacy. The conservatory dining room is filled with natural light, and two lounge areas offer space to unwind or enjoy time with others – one ideal for quiet relaxation, the other a welcoming hub for games, music, and conversation.
Daily activities are a central part of life at Hartwell Lodge. From tea-tasting afternoons to visits from a local beekeeper, the programme is varied and designed to bring joy and meaning. For those who prefer a quieter pace, one-to-one sessions can be arranged in the privacy of their own room.
Meals are freshly prepared on-site by experienced cooks, with menus tailored to personal preferences and dietary requirements – home-style cooking, made with care.
To arrange a visit or to find out more about the care available at Hartwell Lodge, please get in touch.

Mum arrived at Hartwell Lodge 3 years today and the standard of care has been consistently high throughout her time there. She has always been treated with care and compassion, and I have always been made to feel welcome when visiting. Whenever there has been a reason for me to communicate with the home - outside of visits - my questions have always been answered respectfully and fully. I find it quite amazing that in 3 years I have not had a single reason to complain and I recommend Hartwell Lodge wholeheartedly.

Since February there has been a big staff changes. Sadly, they don't know mum or us, her family and it's not always easy to find someone to have informal chats with. There have been issues but Requests I have made have been addressed.
The home has a different feel now.
We value your review and thank you for taking the time to share your experiences, it has been a pleasure getting to know mum and you during your visits.

We lost him on Sunday and in our time sitting with him we witnessed how much interaction he was getting daily from each and every member of staff. We as a family were supported with empathy and were never made to feel we were in the way.
If you are looking for a care home, look no further. Hartwell is led perfectly and the staff supported by this leadership which then presents unity and love towards all the residents.
Thank you for the love and support since July 2021. We so moved dad into the right place.
Thank you for such beautiful words, it has been a real pleasure. Top support Dad through his journey has menat the world to us. Your kind review will shine the light for other families in need to find us.

We were welcomed by the manager of the home. She showed us round the home and was very friendly and put us at ease straight away. This was one of the hardest decisions we have had to make.
To put a parent into a home is very difficult.
She helped us through this and came to visit dad at his Bungalow.
When we arrived with dad, for him to stay at the home, he was greeted with warmth and compassion.
The care that dad received whilst living at Hartwell lodge, was amazing. Each and every staff member made dad feel so special. They met all of dad's needs, with confidence, kindness and genuine feelings.
All the staff went above and beyond to make dad comfortable. They also made the family welcome and comfortable. Again nothing was too much trouble.
I would highly recommend Hartwell lodge to anyone that is looking for a care home for their loved one.
Thank you for your kind words, our end of life care is something we are very proud of and our reputation proceeds us. It was a pleasure meeting you and caring for your Father.

Our Dad attends day service at Hartwell, it offers a new normal for Dad with new friends and a great place to call on for a short holiday should Dad need. The staff are always so helpful and my Dad has settled so well.

Hartwell is certainly a home-from-home. The staff are wonderful and very caring and always respectful. There is always a lovely atmosphere in the home and nothing is too much trouble. The care is outstanding and the manager very professional and understanding. The other residents are always friendly and the range of activities seems to add to the joy in the home. He has settled in well and we are delighted that he is in such capable hands as looking after him at home had become impossible. We are always made to feel welcome when we visit too. We are all so grateful to everyone at Hartwell Lodge for the care you give him and for knowing that he is safe and well looked after. Thank you all so much.
Thank you for such a lovely review, your loved one is so very important to us and we will always ensure the support we offer is personalized in all aspects. Our loved ones are our most important source of feedback aside from the residents. Thank you

Hartwell Lodge is an outstanding care home, and the staff and management are wonderful. My grandmother spent the last three months of her life there and they treated her with great care, dignity and respect. She had complicated medical conditions but they were always able to support her as required right until the end of her life. There is always a nice atmosphere, with fun and creative activities for residents and relatives alike. We were always offered a warm welcome and cup of tea from the staff whenever we visited, and there are plenty of spaces so we could either get involved in activities or spend some quality time alone. Hartwell Lodge was always immaculately clean and tidy throughout. We always felt like our grandmother was in safe hands and it was such a relief to find Hartwell Lodge. A big thank you to the whole team for your kindness and dedication.
Thank you for your kind review, you are a lovely family a real credit to your late grandmother she is deeply missed
Extremely happy to have my Grandma close and be able to visit her as often as I possibly can. All the staff we have met have been very friendly and welcoming.

We chose Hartwell because of its homely atmosphere. Although Auntie has only been in respite a few weeks and still settling in, all the staff, without exception, have been friendly, kind, caring, polite, and patient. The food looks delicious and Auntie enjoys her meals. The range of activities is both stimulating and fun. We are grateful to the Hartwell Team for their help at this time. Thank you.
Thank you for your kind words, settling into a care facility can be very challenging when you have never visited before. I am glad we have been able to reassure and comfort your Aunt, we will continue to do so.
