About The Towans Care Home
The Towans Care Home provides residential and respite care for older people in a coastal setting, with 24-hour qualified carers available for residents who need daily support. Short stays can help after a fall or illness, or when a usual family carer is away, while permanent residents have their own rooms and personal space.
Life at the home includes daily activities, weekly entertainment, one-to-one time and larger celebrations. Fresh home-cooked meals are adapted for dietary requirements and preferences, including modified textures, fortified drinks and grazing platters where needed. Many rooms have sea views, and some are large enough for couples. Fresh home-cooked meals are adapted for dietary requirements so food remains part of everyday comfort and routine.

Questions families ask
Does The Towans offer short-term respite care?
Yes. They provide short-term respite stays for people needing extra help, including after a fall or illness or while regular carers are away.
Do rooms at The Towans have en-suite facilities?
Yes. Each resident is offered a personal room with an en-suite toilet and basin, and residents can bring personal belongings if they are safe and in good working order.
Can The Towans cater for special dietary requirements?
Yes. Their catering team adapts meals for dietary restrictions and preferences, including medical requirements, and prepares modified textures such as pureed meals.
How much does The Towans Care Home cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Towans Care Home for its weekly fee. As a guide, Somerset council paid on average £1,135 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.
