Questions families ask
Can couples share a room at The Limes?

Can residents bring their own belongings to personalise their room?
Yes. They encourage residents to personalise their rooms with their own belongings to help them feel at home.
How much does The Limes cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Limes for its weekly fee. As a guide, East Riding of Yorkshire council paid on average £1,040 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.
