Questions families ask

From what age can someone live there?

From age 65. They are registered to care for adults aged 65 and over and cannot offer places to younger people.

Does the home provide dementia care?

Yes. Dementia is one of their registered specialisms, and the team supports people living with dementia every day, including through a Dementia Champion.

Does the home offer respite care?

Yes. They offer short residential or dementia care stays, including breaks for carers or an opportunity to try the home first.

Is the home suitable for people living with dementia?

Yes. The environment supports people living with dementia through clear wayfinding, familiar surroundings, safe access to the garden and a calm, unhurried atmosphere.

How much does Little Brook House cost?

The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Little Brook House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Hampshire council paid on average £1,214 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.
