Questions families ask

Do they offer activities every day?

Yes. Burleigh House runs a full activities programme every day of the week, including social, physical and creative activities.

Can residents bring their own furniture and belongings?

Yes. Residents are encouraged to personalise their rooms with familiar furniture, photographs and belongings to help make the home feel familiar.

Can someone try Burleigh House before moving in permanently?

Yes. They offer flexible respite stays, which families can use as a trial before deciding on a permanent move.

What happens before someone moves into Burleigh House?

A care needs assessment confirms the required level of care, then Burleigh House completes its own assessment, helps select a room and provides a clear written fee before admission.

How much does Burleigh House cost?

The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Burleigh House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Hertfordshire council paid on average £922 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.
