Review from Trudie J (Daughter of Resident) published on 18 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum was struggling with her short term memory and the semi- independent care home she lived in was no longer suitable. It's early days but her move to Penlee House seems to have been a great decision. The staff are all caring, warm and welcoming and they are very attentive. The food is great and
my mother has settled really well. What a relief!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I would have no hesitation in recommending Penlee to anyone looking for residential care for their loved ones. My mum's stay there was relatively short but it could not have been happier. She was welcomed with warmth and genuine affection, and we felt very supported as her family too. The team are wonderful
and will always go the extra mile to make those in their care feel loved and looked after. We will miss you!

Review from Nick P (Nephew of Resident) published on 28 October 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My uncle moved into Penlee a few years ago, and we remain in regular touch. He's extremely impressed with their care and I think eats better there than he did when he looked after himself. They always seem professional and friendly when I visit, and the room is clean and fresh-smelling. I think we've
been lucky!

My Mother moved into this home in December 2017 and is so happy here. The staff are wonderful, caring and attentive. They have planned activities and regular visits from singers, musicians, school children and others. I cannot fault this home they look after my Mum so well, and myself and my husband
can walk in anytime to visit her.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.483)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.483) out of 10 for Penlee Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.5 out of 5 from 2 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 4.958 for Penlee Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (23 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 4.958
  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 3.525 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Penlee Residential Care Home is based on 2 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 = 3.125
    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. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 5 = 0.4
  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.
