Welcome to Ferfoot

Ferfoot is a purpose-built care home located in the market town of Chippenham. Our experienced teams offer residential and dementia care on a permanent and respite basis.

The Wiltshire care home is situated in a sympathetically converted period home, built in the 1900s. Residents have access to many recently refurbished facilities including warm, communal areas and a hair salon. Each bedroom is tastefully decorated, most with an en-suite bathroom. Outside residents and their loved ones are welcome to enjoy the secure, enclosed garden

Ferfoot care home is close to Bath and Swindon, and provides an active lifestyle that supports as much independence as possible. Our dedicated activities team organises a wide range of engaging activities, social events, trips and outings in our minibus.

We pride ourselves on the transparency of our care quality and fee information - ensuring you can trust us to care from that very first step.
