About The Aylsham Manor
Residential and respite care for older people takes place at The Aylsham Manor, a seventeenth-century Grade II listed building adapted for up to 30 residents. Its position in an ancient market town, three acres of grounds and period setting give the home a distinctive character.
Care plans are developed after staff learn each resident’s likes, dislikes and needs, then shared with the care team through a secure digital system. Activities include quizzes, reminiscence and arts and crafts, alongside outings and visiting entertainers. A Grade II listed building provides the setting for care that combines historic surroundings with adapted accommodation and practical support.

Questions families ask
Does the care home offer day care or respite stays?
Yes. They offer day care and have one room for short-term respite care. Respite bookings must be made in advance and depend on availability.
How is care tailored after moving into the home?
They learn each resident’s likes, dislikes and needs during the first few days, then create a personalised care plan shared with staff through a secure digital planning system.
How many residents can the care home accommodate?
They can accommodate up to 30 residents in 29 rooms. Every room is different, and availability is subject to change.
What activities are available for residents?
A dedicated activities coordinator organises supervised activities throughout the week, including quizzes, reminiscence, arts and crafts and board games.
How much does The Aylsham Manor cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Aylsham Manor for its weekly fee. As a guide, Norfolk council paid on average £1,129 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.
