  • Newland House, Witney
Newland House is an impressive family home that is steeped in tradition both inside and out. Originally home to three generations of blanket industrialists, the prominent Early family, Newland House has been thoughtfully re-designed, incorporating all of its original features to provide a safe, appealing and comfortable home for its residents.

Located in the thriving Cotswold market town of Witney, 12 miles west of the City of Oxford, Newland House can be found tucked away behind an appealing façade of traditional Oxfordshire stone. A fully-trained, compassionate and caring team has created an exceptional residential care home equipped with 28 bedrooms and spaces inside and out to enjoy both companionship and privacy.

Residents benefit from fully inclusive home cooked meals in the dining room, socialising in the communal areas or relaxing in the garden along with daily activities schedule with trips out, access to video calling and all inclusive laundry service.

Newland House is a family home created with three underlying values at its core. These are care, comfort and companionship.

Mum has been a resident at Newland House since October 2015 and since then mum has built up some truly amazing relationships with the team. In the last year, Newland House has really blown my expectations of care and I cannot praise the staff or the manager enough. I would highly recommend Newland House
to anyone and everyone.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Dad has been living in Newland House for two years. Throughout my adult, life care homes received negative press. Newland House has altered my view and proved what a valuable role care homes can play in caring for our loved ones.


The staff are wonderful, always kind, compassionate and respectful

and deal with the daily necessities but much more including organising appointments, administering medication, writing and updating comprehensive care plans, sourcing equipment and engaging him in activities. They all know dad well and can spot when he is out of sorts and liaise with health professionals when required. The care appears seamless but it is obvious that a huge amount of effort is put in behind the scenes.


Newland House Is a well-managed home that is clean, bright, fresh and well maintained.


I would highly recommend Newland House and feel lucky that we found such a warm, safe and homely environment for dad. I am so grateful to the fantastic team who look after dad so well.

A comprehensive care plan which reflects dads needs and capabilities. It demonstrated a knowledge of dads preferences, so time and care had been taken to speak to dad regarding these.

Mum lived at Newland House for almost three years. The staff helped her settle in very quickly. The carers were always kind and patient, even with disruptive residents.
Mum was always dressed carefully. She enjoyed the food and the only frozen food used were peas and ice-cream. Some staffing difficulties
recently were dealt with decisively and wisely.
We felt sure mum was in a safe place and she was happy there. There was a varied programme of activities.

I visited Newland House to see an old friend who I had not seen in several years. Staff made me feel very welcome and I could clearly see that they put their heart and soul into everything that they do. It was so nice to see residents with a smile on their face and staff encouraging residents to get
involved with day to day tasks. Visiting Newlands has really changed my perception of care homes.

Newland House is a safe and caring environment in which my mother is settled and seemingly happy. The staff are kind and caring and very sympathetic to my mother's needs.
The interior is in the process of being redecorated and is looking lovely. My mother eats sparingly but never complains about the
food a good sign.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff at Newland House were attentive of the needs of my Aunt. They were always kind and caring. I was always informed of any changes in her health and the Doctors at the local surgery were called without hesitation if they were concerned. My Aunt was in the home for three years before she passed
away and the same staff were there throughout. This continuation of care meant they knew and understood her needs at all time.

A lovely welcoming home. The staff were very nice and made my mother who has dementia very comfortable. They looked after her very well and she was very happy. My father was reassured that she was being taken care of and this made him happy to leave her for a few days before visiting. Our thanks to
everyone at Newland House.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Visited over the past nine years to see my old neighbour and her sister, who was also in the home from 2013 - 2015. The staff are delightful, willing and able. They appear to love their jobs and really care about the residents, treating them with respect and dignity, but also with affection.
My neighbour
found staff were so kind and she enjoyed joking with them. They provided very individualised care, including shopping and visits to the garden centre before she became too frail. During her last days she was kept comfortable and at peace. Her sister, who died last year received the same high standard of care.
Surroundings are pleasant, bright and clean. They are decorated and re-furnished regularly, making it so homelike for residents.
The staff are always welcoming in spite of a busy workload and work well as a team. Some have been in post all the years I visited. I congratulate them for their excellent care and praise them for their very valuable work.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Newland House is not a "typical" care home. It is a very friendly community where all the residents are treated with dignity, dedication and with utmost respect. The staff are jolly, upbeat in manner, enthusiasm and genuinely interested in all the residents they care for. They also cater for all the
residents individual needs as they present themselves at any given time. The manager herself is extremely open and honest- telling one how things really are- with much insight and understanding.

My mother is well cared for by a lovely team of carers. The manager and deputy are friendly and welcoming, and promote a high standard of care. Mother always looks well groomed, her behaviour can be challenging at times, this is dealt with in a kind and professional manner by all. The home is always
clean, residents are treated as individuals. All the staff including the handyman, cook and cleaners as well as managers and carers threat all residents with respect and care.

A warm welcome with friendly staff. A homely feel with no urine smells. Residents all seem happy too. They do great activities and have great entertainment like a someone playing the piano and singing the old songs back in their day. Great atmosphere in there too.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum, aged 92, moved from Portsmouth to Newland House in October 2014, after family concerns regarding her ability to cope on her own in her flat, due to both memory and mobility problems. Newland House is a welcoming friendly home and not being huge (26 rooms max) has a real family feel to it. We have
been so impressed by the love, care and support both mum, and on some occasions when she was very poorly family, have received from the staff. Mum loves being there, she has put on weight, enjoys taking part in activities and talks enthusiastically about all the staff. We have complete faith in the staff who support her and completely understand her needs. We know she is safe and happy, which is reassuring to her family.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.632)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.632) out of 10 for Newland House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.632 for Newland House is calculated as follows: ( (94 Excellents x 5) + (47 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 144 Ratings = 4.632
  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 Newland House is based on 12 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 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6, which has been reached with 12 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.

I have been part of Newland House for a very long time and worked at Hartford Care for ten years. Newland House is more than a Care Home to my team and me - it’s a place filled with people who love what they do and want to make a difference.
I have a dedicated team of whom I am very proud, a team that cares and who I would have looked after my loved ones in a heartbeat. I pride myself in ensuring our residents have the best lives they possibly can in an environment which is safe, happy and fun. I want to see them live, not exist, and my team make sure of this, which means they have fun too, and it’s this which makes Newland a lovely place to live and work - I wouldn’t have it any other way!
