Care Home and Retirement Village
Care Home and Retirement Living in Twyford, Berkshire
A manor house life, reimagined for today. There are care homes. And then there is Bridge House of Twyford.
A rich history with a modern purpose
Bridge House of Twyford is a CQC-rated Good care home and retirement estate in Twyford, Berkshire, offering nursing care, dementia care, rehabilitation, respite and palliative care, together with independent retirement living — all within a single riverside estate between Reading and Maidenhead.
Set within landscaped grounds on the banks of the River Loddon, Bridge House has been a place of distinction for generations — first as one of Berkshire’s prestigious manor houses, and today as the county’s most complete retirement and care estate.
Everything that once made Bridge House a coveted private residence now belongs to the people who call it home.
One Estate.
Every level of care and support
Bridge House provides a complete continuum of care: independent and assisted retirement living, 24-hour nursing care, dementia care, inpatient rehabilitation, respite and short stays, and palliative care.
Residents receive as much or as little assistance as they wish, from a qualified, professional team of nurses and carers who are always close at hand but never intrusive. Should your needs change, your care changes — not your address. You have the reassurance to remain in the estate, among familiar faces, in the place you have made your home. For couples whose needs differ, it means staying close to one another. For everyone, it means certainty: whatever the future holds.
From Your Manor to Ours
What makes Bridge House unlike any other provider in the area is this: a complete continuum of care, each have their own dedicated settings within the grounds – distinct yet part of a single community that shares the same values and commitment to quality care and support.
Dementia Care
Dementia care is provided within the original Georgian manor house – one of the most calm and familiar settings for dementia care in Berkshire. For people living with dementia, surroundings are not a backdrop to care – they are part of the care itself. Our approach is genuinely person-centred, so that care is shaped around the person, never the condition.
Nursing Care
Our purpose-built nursing home provides 24-hour nursing care in Twyford, led by registered general and mental health nurses. Every resident’s care begins with a thorough, unhurried assessment and a personal care plan built around them and the life they wish to keep living.
Rehabilitation and Short Stays
As one of the few care homes in Berkshire to offer a dedicated inpatient rehabilitation programme. The programme supports recovery from surgery, stroke, falls and neurological conditions, and welcomes both self-referrals and professional referrals. Respite care and short stays are also available, giving families a trusted place for a loved one to stay well.
Palliative
Care
Our palliative and end-of-life care focuses on comfort, dignity and quality of life for people living with serious or life-limiting illnesses.
Our compassionate approach supports the entire family during this sensitive time.
Pain management and advance care plans are carefully considered to ensure the peace and tranquillity of end-of-life care.
Independent and Assisted Living
For those who want to live life entirely on their own terms, Bridge Park offers eleven beautifully designed private cottages and apartments set within the estate grounds. Your own front door, your own routines, your own style of living — all with the town of Twyford within easy reach.
“No one could have done any more for Mum, from the manager, the friendliest receptionist you could ever meet, the carers, the dining staff – they couldn’t have been nicer.
Bridge Court is home from home and that’s how they like you to treat your stay.”
