Questions families ask
Is respite care available at The Hollies?
Yes, when there is space. The Hollies does not keep a dedicated respite room, so availability depends on the room situation.
Are meals freshly prepared at The Hollies?
Yes. Meals are prepared on site by the home's cooks using quality ingredients, with seasonal menus, variety, choice and home-cooked favourites.
Can The Hollies cater for allergies and specialist diets?
Yes. They cater for allergies, intolerances and specialist diets, offer a choice at every sitting and provide alternatives where possible.
How much does The Hollies Residential Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Hollies Residential Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Kent council paid on average £1,096 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.
