About Montana Residential Home
Montana Residential Home offers residential support for older people with physical disabilities or sensory impairment. The home is run by the Grace and Compassion Benedictine Sisters, whose care approach is rooted in a Christian community setting and includes pastoral life within the home.
Residents can access daily Mass from Monday to Friday, a Saturday communion service and Sunday Mass. The home also provides advocacy information for residents and relatives who need help discussing care or future needs. Montana’s practical appeal lies in combining residential care with daily Mass at 8.15am and a setting shaped by the Benedictine community’s emphasis on balance, serenity and wholeness.

Questions families ask
How much does Montana Residential Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Montana Residential Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Suffolk council paid on average £1,080 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.
Who pays for a place in this home?
Ask Montana Residential Home whether it takes residents funded by Suffolk council and what it charges people who pay for themselves. In England the council may help after a needs assessment and a financial assessment if savings and assets are below £23,250 (2026 to 2027 rules). People whose needs are mainly health needs may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare, which pays the full fee.
