Our homes

Four homes.Three villages.One team.

Ridgewood operates four specialist homes across East Sussex. Each has its own history and character — a late-Victorian public house, a former convalescence home, and two period Sussex properties on the Crockstead Farm estate — and each is registered individually with the Care Quality Commission.

Woodcote

Cross in Hand Road, Heathfield

Woodcote is on the Cross in Hand Road on the outskirts of Heathfield. The detached late-19th-century property is understood to have once been a convalescence home for Canadian soldiers in the First World War. Its three acres of grounds include formal lawns, a sun terrace, a lake with walkway and footbridge, tennis court and paddock. Inside, there is a lounge, dining room, kitchen, utility room and six bedrooms across two floors — all with en-suites.

Crockstead Farmhouse

Off the A22, Halland

Crockstead Farmhouse is a detached two-storey period Sussex farmhouse set well back from the main road, just off the A22 in Halland. We've retained many features including exposed beams, wall panelling and inglenook fireplaces. Gardens wrap three sides, mainly laid to lawn with trees and shrubs. Inside: a large lounge, sitting room, kitchen, utility room, downstairs toilet and bedroom on the ground floor; five further bedrooms and a sensory room upstairs.

Crockstead Farm Supported Living

Crockstead Farm estate, Halland

Crockstead Farm Supported Living is a converted period Sussex barn on the Crockstead Farm estate. The property is set back from the A22 on a private driveway for privacy and a calm environment. The estate hosts a fully operational equestrian centre, gym and therapeutic centre, with readily available access to 200 acres of farmland for walking and cycling. Animal care provisions — peacocks, chickens, ducks, rabbits, guinea pigs — are available for therapeutic activity. Accommodation spans twelve bedrooms across two floors; six of the first-floor bedrooms are registered as supported living units. The property is uniquely positioned to offer separate but related on-site suites for family visits and placement transitions.
