About Abbotsfield Residential Care Home
Abbotsfield Residential Care Home supports people aged 65 and over who no longer wish or feel able to live alone, and can also accept younger adults needing care and support. The home is equipped for physically frail people and those living with dementia or EMI needs.
Residents receive 24-hour support, home-cooked meals, furnished bedrooms and a varied activities programme shaped by their choices. Before admission, a member of the management team visits the person at home to assess care needs and determine whether Abbotsfield can meet the required support.

How much does Abbotsfield Residential Care Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Abbotsfield Residential Care Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Westmorland and Furness council paid on average £1,203 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
