About The Gables
Residential care at The Gables is offered in a characterful period home for older people in Great Yarmouth. The service supports permanent and respite stays, while Healthcare Homes also operates nursing and dementia services elsewhere in its wider care provision.
The Gables is specifically identified as a residential care home, making it relevant for people who need accommodation and ongoing support in a home setting. Its period character distinguishes the environment from purpose-built accommodation. The wider provider also offers specialist care for physical and learning disabilities, although that broader scope should not be assumed to apply at this home. A characterful period care home is the clearest feature of the setting.

Questions families ask
How much does The Gables cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Gables 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.
Who pays for a place in this home?
Ask The Gables whether it takes residents funded by Norfolk 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.
