About Argyll House
Argyll House provides residential care and supported living for people with learning disabilities, including support associated with mental health conditions and autism. The service is designed around helping adults live in a place they can call home while receiving support shaped around the life they want to lead.
Choice Care’s model considers the person, the people around them and the type of daily life they want, rather than treating support as a fixed package. Support can be explored alongside therapies and referral guidance, with options intended for people who may want to live more independently, share with others or prefer a quieter setting.

Questions families ask
How much does Argyll House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Argyll House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Swindon council paid on average £999 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.
Who pays for a place in this home?
Ask Argyll House whether it takes residents funded by Swindon council and what it charges people who pay for themselves. In England the council may help after a needs assessment and a financial assessment if savings and assets are below £23,250 (2026 to 2027 rules). People whose needs are mainly health needs may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare, which pays the full fee.
