Meet The Manager

Agnieszka McDonald is Home Manager at Haughgate House Nursing Home.

Haughgate House is a beautiful home with a passionate team of carers. My residents are always my priority, and I always try to give them what I would want from a care home.

Agnieszka McDonald

Haughgate House Care Home in Woodbridge, Suffolk, provides nursing care for up to 43 residents.

Originally built in the 1920s as a family home for the local Cobbold family, the property was converted into a nursing home in the 1980s and has recently undergone a major refurbishment. This has provided a new range of facilities in keeping with the 1920s home while providing modern and comfortable rooms for residents and staff. Alongside the 12-bedroom extension, works have included a completely new kitchen, laundry, and staff room facilities and two new communal day rooms for residents to enjoy. 


The home is set in a peaceful and tranquil setting in the heart of Woodbridge, a beautiful, historic town with the iconic Tide Mill on the quayside and peaceful views across the harbour.

With shops, cafes, pubs, and places of entertainment such as the Riverside Cinema, there is always something to do to occupy yourself and enjoy whatever the British weather delivers. Walking around the harbour and into the countryside is also popular with our residents due to the outstanding beauty of the town’s surroundings.

Connectivity for resident testing, monitoring & communications
