My mum has recently spent 2/52 in Grasmere as a respite resident. I have to say the care they give is truly amazing. I would certainly recommend to others, and we will use them again.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Broke elbow in December 2017 - 6 weeks in hospital - last 2 for plastic surgery - not mobile enough to return home. 4 weeks in Grasmere Rest Home. Good friendly, lively atmosphere, excellent facilities, only occasional arrangements out of normal timing. Had good body washing - night commode care - help
with dressing, carrying bags, papers etc between rooms as unable to hold. Good time and care for arrangements to hospital check up and to hospital. 4 weeks helped me to settle back home. Lounge and dayrooms just completing a bright and up-to-date refurbishment.

Review from Colin G (Son of Resident) published on 5 March 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I have been going to Grasmere Rest Home for about 4 years. My dad was a resident before he passed away, now my mum is resident at the home. I have found all staff caring and helpful to both mum and dad and always polite. Always greet me with a smile and ask if I would like a tea or coffee. If there
are any problems they phone and let me know immediately, nearly all residents seem to get on well. I feel lucky to have found Grasmere for mum and dad.

Our Mum has been a resident at Grasmere for nearly 3 years now and we are very pleased with the care and support she receives. Mum can be very difficult with her many medical problems as well as mental issues, and the home looks after her very well and attends to her needs. The atmosphere is very homely,
the food is good with plenty of choice and the staff are excellent with her care.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.923)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.923) out of 10 for Grasmere Rest Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.923 for Grasmere Rest Home is calculated as follows: ( (265 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 286 Ratings = 4.923
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Grasmere Rest Home is based on 24 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 25 registered maximum number of service users is 5, which has been reached with 24 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Antonina Gont

Job Title: Registered Care Home Manager Joined: 2022

I started working in the care sector as a temporary care assistant in a nursing home in Ashtead. I fell in love with the work and the residents and remained there for three and a half years. I am a very organised person and value honesty and punctuality. I like to treat everyone the way I would like to be treated. I would like to think that I am making a difference in people’s lives, trying my best to give them the best years of their life, while keeping them safe. Grasmere has such a warm atmosphere that really turns the building into a loving home for all of us.


Southcare Homes Group is more than a business, it is a family that continues to improve. I hope to do this at Grasmere, not just by maintaining our Outstanding CQC rating for ‘Caring’, but also by working to improve the other four key lines of enquiry. I hope I will manage to do that as soon as possible to ensure that we have recognition for the services that we offer.
