Questions families ask
Do they offer day care for older people?
Yes. They offer weekday day care for residents aged 65 or over, from 10am to 2pm, with activities, lunch, a small contribution towards costs and a safety pre-assessment.
Can they arrange a trial or respite stay?
Yes. They provide short-term respite care and flexible trial stays. These include personalised care, meals, activities, accommodation and day-to-day support.
What happens if personal care funds run out?
Residents can remain there if their personal funds run out, provided their care needs can still be safely met at the home under the Home For Life funding assurance.
How much does Rose Cottage cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Rose Cottage for its weekly fee. As a guide, Cambridgeshire council paid on average £993 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.
