About Us

We at Maudes Meadow are proud to offer a warm and welcoming residential care home in the heart of Kendal, providing thoughtful support to older people, younger adults, and those living with dementia across our beautiful corner of Westmorland and Furness.

Nestled within the LA postcode area, our home benefits from the gentle charm of Kendal and the wider North West setting. The town is renowned for its scenic surroundings on the edge of the Lake District, and we feel this peaceful backdrop contributes enormously to the atmosphere of calm and comfort we work hard to nurture within our walls. Residents can enjoy familiar local sights and the reassuring rhythm of community life, whilst families visiting from further afield will find Kendal an accessible and picturesque location.

Our specialisms reflect the breadth of people we are privileged to support. Alongside dedicated older person care and residential care, we provide compassionate dementia care designed to help each resident feel safe, understood, and valued. For those living with physical disability or with visual or hearing impairment, we take the time to understand individual needs so that daily routines, communication, and the environment itself can be adapted to promote independence and dignity. We also welcome younger adults who benefit from residential support, recognising that every stage of life brings its own hopes and challenges.

For families in need of a short break, our respite care offers a trusted place where a loved one can be cared for with the same warmth and professionalism as our permanent residents. Whether respite is arranged following a hospital stay, to support a family carer, or simply to give someone a change of scene, we aim to make the experience settling and restorative from the very first day.

In practice, this range of specialisms means that our team approaches care as something deeply personal. We take time to learn about each resident, their history, their preferences, and the small details that make a house feel like home. Families are always considered part of the wider circle of care, and we believe open, honest communication is one of the most reassuring things we can offer during what is often a difficult decision for relatives.

We are pleased to hold an overall rating of Good from the Care Quality Commission, with Good ratings across each of the five key areas of Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well led at our most recent inspection. For families, this independent assessment offers reassurance that the standards of safety, leadership, and compassion they hope to find are recognised by the regulator. We view this rating not as a destination but as a foundation, and we remain committed to listening, learning, and improving so that every resident continues to feel genuinely cared for.

Choosing a care home is one of the most important decisions a family can make, and we understand the weight of that responsibility. If you are exploring options for a loved one in Kendal or the wider Westmorland and Furness area, we warmly invite you to get in touch with Maudes Meadow. Whether you would like to ask a few gentle questions, discuss a specific need, or arrange a visit to see our home for yourself, we are here to help you take the next step with confidence and reassurance.
