Questions families ask
Does Clifftop Care Home provide 24-hour care?
Yes. Clifftop provides care around the clock, with support available when residents require it.
Do Clifftop Care Home rooms have en-suite facilities?
Yes. All rooms are en-suite, and many have full views across Swanage Bay.
How much does Clifftop Care Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Clifftop Care Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Dorset council paid on average £1,254 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.
