Cordelia House Care Home
Discover bespoke residential care from a highly trained care team in our welcoming care home.
Cordelia House Care Home provides a safe and homely environment within a real village community. Situated in the heart of Fareham, a quaint market town 20 minutes away from the historic city of Portsmouth.
We provide high-quality residential, respite and end of life care for older people, including those with dementia, sensory loss or mental health care needs. As your needs change, so does the level and type of care we deliver. Our team are specially trained to provide as little or as much high-quality care you need.
There are several lounges and dining areas throughout the home, plus a large garden and enclosed paved courtyards, with plenty of outdoor furniture to sit out on sunny days with a cup of tea.
As well as caring for you we care about your families too. Our door is always open for a chat, and our residents’ and families’ forum gives you a way to support each other. Plus, your family members are welcome in at any time, for a cuppa, or to join us for a meal.
Social activities
We place great emphasis on social activities and maintaining the type of life you have had at home, whether that is a quiet and relaxed lifestyle or an active lifestyle.
Located just 20 minutes from Portsmouth, the historic naval base is a popular choice amongst our residents for trips out. This is usually followed by fish and chips on Portsmouth harbour.
Animal visits are always popular – goats, pigs, rabbits, ducks – they can be sure of a warm welcome at Cordelia House. We also have a resident cat – Kitty who’s always up for a stroke and a cuddle.
We have fortnightly visits from a local nursery in Fareham and we love joining in with arts and crafts, singing, stories, ‘show and tell’ and garden activities with the children.
Dining
At Cordelia House Care Home you will be served freshly prepared home cooked meals by our team of expert chefs. They ensure all our meals are healthy, nutritionally balanced and, most importantly, locally sourced wherever possible. Meals are served in our superb dining room, but you also have the option for food to be served in your room for a more private dining experience.
Nutrition is an important part of the care we provide. That’s why our catering team take time to get to know your likes and dislikes before putting together a vibrant and varied menu for you to choose from.
Bedrooms
There are 36 comfortable bedrooms for people living at Cordelia House, across the ground floor and the first floor. Most of our rooms have ensuites and the two bedrooms without ensuites have a washbasin in the room and an accessible bathroom nearby. Some of our rooms have stunning views of our garden.
The bedrooms are a blank canvas for you to personalise with your own photos, pictures and furniture to help you feel at home. It also helps our care team understand what’s important to you, help in building a warm relationship.
Gardens
We have a lovely enclosed and secure garden with level walkways around the lawn and flowerbeds.
Our garden is a great spot for activities and eating outside. There’s plenty of space to sit out, and a patio area with extra tables and chairs.

All the staff are so kind, caring and professional both to me and my father. I can’t express what a relief it was to get Mum into care and to now know she is safe and being well looked after; it’s amazing! Mum can be difficult, but the staff instinctively know how to make things better, and she is now thriving in their care and happy environment. Thank you so much!
Sheila T (Daughter of Resident, 2023)
Mum moved into the home in October 2022. She has plenty of activities and people around her to keep her busy if she so wishes. The staff are all brilliant and always greet you with a lovely smile. We are happy that mum is somewhere safe and warm and being looked after 24/7. Thank you.
Robert P (Son of Resident, 2023)
Dad has settled in very well and seems content. We are happy with the care he receives and all the staff are very kind and he is well looked after. His room is always spotless and very well made up every day which is lovely.

Frequently asked questions
We’re located in a nice residential area of Fareham in Hampshire. Our home is within easy reach of Fareham town centre and the M27.
When you move in to our home, you have the option to enjoy mealtimes in the communal areas with other residents, or to enjoy some private time in your room. Our expert chefs prepare a daily menu with nutritious options for you to choose from based on your likes and dislikes. Our chefs will always ask for feedback, and are more than willing to adapt menus. We are so proud that our kitchen team have received a 5* ‘Very Good’ rating from the Food Standards Agency. What’s more, our care teams are always on hand to support and encourage you at mealtimes, ensuring you get the nutrition and hydration needed.
If you would like to view our home then don’t hesitate to give us a call and we would be happy to arrange a no obligation home visit. Alternatively, we have regular coffee mornings where anyone is able to pop in. This is great opportunity to get to know our team and residents.
Once you become a resident at our home, there are no set visiting hours, so your family and friends are free to come and go as much as they want.
Our bespoke care and support is available for a single weekly fee. That includes care, accommodation, laundry, meals, housekeeping, social outings and more.
That means no additional charges or hidden fees, just consistent, all-inclusive support for a weekly fee.
Funding may be available from your local authority. Firstly, they will check how much help and what kind of care you need: this is the needs assessment. Following on from that, the free financial assessment calculates the total cost of care and how much you’ll need to contribute.
If you don’t want a financial assessment you can choose to pay for your care home yourself – this is called self-funding.
Here at Cordelia we offer tailored 24-hour a day respite care that allows you to continue living life your way with as much support you may need from our care team.
This could be a one-off stay, to give a regular family carer a much-needed break, or a regular arrangement to give you variety in your care. Our personalised care can last as long as you need it to and can start within 24-hours.
