About Penrose Farm
Penrose Farm provides residential support for up to five adults aged 18 to 65 with learning disabilities and autism. The home combines a main farmhouse with spacious accommodation for two people and a self-contained one-bedroom annexe for one person, with en-suite bedrooms or allocated bathrooms.

Support is delivered by a Registered Manager, support workers and positive behaviour specialists, with skills teaching intended to build independence.

How much does Penrose Farm cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Penrose Farm for its weekly fee. As a guide, Cornwall council paid on average £2,062 a week for a residential care place for adults aged 18 to 64 in 2024-2025, against £1,883 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
