Marsh Farm Manor care home is a contemporary residential care home, set in luxurious and comfortable surroundings and benefitting from private landscaped gardens. Our home is ideally located near Jubilee Lake, which is an area of ancient woodlands and flower-rich meadows. We are only minutes from the quaint market town of Royal Wootton Bassett. Royal Wootton Bassett is a town well regarded for its close links with the Royal Air Force, which was until most recently, based at Lyneham.
Marsh Farm Manor offers first class residential and dementia care for up to 66 residents.
Marsh Farm Manor offers a warm, safe and friendly environment, with facilities to make you feel at home in our care. Dedicated carers are recruited and trained to ensure care and support that is tailored to each resident’s needs. They have also been specially selected for their personal qualities, such as being instinctively warm with a natural desire to help others – taking the time to have a friendly chat, reminisce or share a joke.

What is included in care home fees?
Care home fees in England can vary substantially from provider to provider and from location to location. Understanding care home funding and accessing the right type of funding assistance can seem like a daunting task.
It is usual for residents in care homes to contribute to the cost of their own care. Some people have the resources to pay for their care in full, whilst others will make means-tested contributions.
The government sets national limits to determine eligibility for funding assistance. These limits can be subject to change, so it is always advisable to check the figures when choosing a care home.
We can provide you more information on fees, what they cover and how they are charged when you enquire.
Paying for your own care
Those who are able to pay for their own care can contact care homes directly. Once a preferred care home has been identified, the care provider will conduct a needs-based assessment.
How much is a weekly private fee?
Our current private weekly fee at Marsh Farm Manor is from £1,300. This can vary due to resident dependency, size of room and location. Our Home Manager and other colleagues will be happy to discuss fees and any other questions you may have about paying for care.
At Marsh Farm Manor we have a team of caring, well qualified professionals, passionate about what they do and dedicated to ensuring our residents always feel confident that they can rely on a friendly face and helping hand 24-hours a day.
Please do get in touch with any questions you may have about moving to Marsh Farm Manor, our friendly team look forward to talking with you and helping you decide on your new home.
