About Hollybank Residential Home
Extra help with daily routines and personal care is the focus at Hollybank Residential Home, a small family-run care home for older people. The Victorian house has gardens and off-street parking, with care staff present during the day and night.
Residents can join music sessions, exercise classes, arts and crafts, games or outings, while personal choice is respected when someone prefers not to participate. Hollybank works with local GPs, district nurses and community psychiatric nurses. The manager is available during weekday working hours for consultation and at other times by appointment, giving families a defined route for discussing care and ongoing support.

Questions families ask
Can I arrange a consultation outside weekday working hours?
Yes. The manager is available by appointment outside working hours, while the proprietor and manager are available during working hours from Monday to Friday.
What activities and outings do residents have?
They provide daily activities and entertainment, including embroidery, arts and crafts, music, a monthly disco and outings to places such as Godstone Farm and Fairfield Halls.
Can residents keep their own choice of GP?
Yes. Residents are registered with a local GP practice of their choice, so a doctor can visit when needed.
How much does Hollybank Residential Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Hollybank Residential Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Croydon council paid on average £1,255 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.
