A warm welcome
Find out about making an enquiry and how we ensure a warm and friendly welcome to all new residents.
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.
The service at Marsh Farm Manor is performing very well

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 £1,402. 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.

We’ll provide you with full details of the home, along with any other information you’d like, such as sample menus and activity schedules.

If you or your loved one doesn’t live nearby or are unable to visit in person we can provide a virtual show round. Either way, we’re keen to show you what daily life is like here and for you to meet our friendly team.
We hope you decide, following your visit, that you or your loved one would like to move into the home, in which case we’ll organise a pre-assessment to make sure we can meet all your care needs.
Our friendly onsite team will discuss every area of moving-in with you in detail to make sure you and your loved-one know exactly what to expect and feel confident, safe and welcomed when coming to live with us.
