Questions families ask
Does Primrose House offer nursing care as well as residential care?
Yes. Stonehaven provides residential and specialist nursing services across its care homes in the South West.
Can care at Primrose House be funded privately or by Social Services?
Both options are available. Stonehaven care homes support residents funded privately or by Social Services.
How much does Primrose House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Primrose House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Devon council paid on average £1,043 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.
