About Laurel Care Home
Laurel Care Home provides residential, nursing, respite and palliative care in the New Forest and Southampton area. The family-run home accommodates up to 60 residents in individual en-suite rooms and assesses each prospective resident before admission.
Care levels are tailored to individual needs, routines and preferences, with families involved in understanding what matters to the person moving in. The home also works with visiting health professionals, including speech therapists, dieticians and specialist services, when required. A weekly GP round takes place through the home’s relationship with Testvale Surgery, adding regular medical input alongside the nursing team.

Questions families ask
Do they accept residential and respite care?
Yes. They accept both residential and respite care, with care levels tailored to each resident’s individual needs.
Do they accept residents with dementia?
Yes, for milder forms of dementia. They are not a secure unit, so they cannot accept some residents with a history of leaving their homes.
Can someone visit before deciding on nursing care?
Yes. They can arrange an informal visit that may include lunch and an activity session, helping families decide whether nursing care is suitable.
Can residents choose when they get up and go to bed?
Yes. Residents can choose when their day starts, when they go to bed and how they spend the time in between.
How much does Laurel Care Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Laurel Care Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Hampshire council paid on average £1,359 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.
