About The Old Vicarage

Long-term residential care, dementia care and day care are available at The Old Vicarage for older people living with frailty, confusion or changing support needs. Its small, family-owned setting is designed around one-to-one attention and care plans shaped by residents’ routines.

Day care provides daytime support, companionship and activities, with meals and personal care available when required. People considering residential care can use a one-month occupancy trial, allowing the resident and family to assess the arrangement and develop an agreed care plan.

Questions families ask

Can they arrange a trial stay before moving in?

Yes. They offer a one-month occupancy trial agreement so the person and their family can decide whether the home suits their needs.

Is laundry included in the care plan?

Yes. Clothing is laundered daily in the home’s onsite laundry.

What happens during the care home assessment?

They first gather information by telephone about the person’s mental and physical state, circumstances, reasons for care and lifestyle. If suitable, they send an information pack and invite the person and their loved one to visit.

How much does The Old Vicarage cost?

The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Old Vicarage for its weekly fee. As a guide, Westmorland and Furness council paid on average £1,203 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.
