About Barking Hall Nursing Home
Barking Hall Nursing Home supports older people through residential, nursing, respite and palliative care. Couples can share a double room where required, allowing partners to remain together while receiving care within the home.
Residents can join gardening, arts and crafts, quizzes or outings, with the timetable shaped alongside residents and one-to-one activities arranged around individual interests. Catering considers allergies, special diets, preferred portions and mealtimes, using local suppliers for fresh homemade dishes. Couples can therefore ask about a double room where required when considering the home.

How much does Barking Hall Nursing Home cost?

As a guide, Suffolk council paid on average £1,058 a week for a nursing care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £1,102 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
