About Diamond House

Diamond House provides residential and dementia care in purpose-built en-suite accommodation, with palliative and respite care also available. The home shares a site with Sapphire, and together the buildings offer 74 furnished bedrooms with en-suite facilities. Residents can bring photographs, soft furnishings and other personal items, provided they pass a fire safety assessment.

Care is shaped around individual needs, with activities coordinators offering meaningful mental and physical stimulation. The wider setting includes shared living spaces and enclosed gardens, while residents may continue seeing their own GP if the practice lies within the catchment area. Diamond House is a purpose-built care home in Leicester and forms part of Minster Care Group, a family-owned and operated provider established in 2005.

Questions families ask

How do they decide what care someone needs?

The home carries out a full assessment to determine which type of care is best suited to the person or their loved one.

Can residents keep their own GP at Diamond House?

Yes, residents can continue seeing their own GP if the doctor is within the home's catchment area. The home can recommend a suitable local GP otherwise.

Can residents personalise their bedroom?

Yes. Residents can bring soft furnishings, photographs and other personal possessions, provided the items pass a fire safety risk assessment carried out by home staff.

What activities are available at Diamond House?

Diamond House has an activities coordinator who organises meaningful activities to stimulate residents mentally and physically. Activities are tailored so residents can take part if they choose.

How much does Diamond House cost?

The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Diamond House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Leicester council paid on average £1,062 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.
