About Longrun House
Longrun House provides residential care and supported living for people with complex needs, particularly profound physical disabilities and learning difficulties. The home supports older people, younger adults and people with physical or learning disabilities, with an emphasis on independence, autonomy and individual aspirations.
Referrals may come from private funders or commissioned care. The referrals team assesses each person’s needs, agrees a care programme with the individual or representatives, and helps identify suitable accommodation. A transition process can be arranged before moving in so relationships and support arrangements are established. Walking distance to the town centre gives the home an urban setting while surrounding green fields and meadows provide a contrasting environment.

Questions families ask
Do they accept privately funded and commissioned care referrals?
Yes. Longrun House welcomes referrals from both privately funded and commissioned care, followed by an assessment to agree the care programme.
What happens before moving into Longrun House?
The referrals and assessment team helps identify suitable accommodation, reviews individual needs and agrees the care programme with the person and their representatives.
Do they provide a transition process before someone moves in?
Yes. They agree a transition process before the move so relationships can be established and the transition is as smooth and comfortable as possible.
How much does Longrun House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Longrun House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Somerset council paid on average £1,135 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.
