  • Holbrook Hall, Belper
Holbrook Hall is a highly regarded care home in Holbrook, Belper. It is a splendid William and Mary period country house set in 4 acres of beautiful, well-stocked gardens.

In 1985 it was converted to a residential care home for the elderly containing 35 fine individual bedrooms, the majority with en-suite facilities/wet rooms and superb views across the adjacent gardens and beautiful countryside.

Holbrook Hall has had the pleasure to care for many people, from short-term respite care and daytime care to full-time residents.

Keeping their residents happy is of prime concern and as their Facebook page will vouch; they are forever thinking of different ways to entertain their guests.

The home has a well-earned reputation for conforming to the highest standards of care, safety, comfort and cuisine and has the testimonials to prove it!

It's a joy to respond to the care staff who are both cheerful and helpful, accepting both my deafness and my poor memory. The one improvement I would like would be to have more written information about what is, or is about to be, happening; telling we residents how we are to respond. Also, what has
been cancelled.
Reply from Morag Vaughan, Director at Holbrook HallThank you so very much for your valuable feedback and we are delighted that you are so happy with us. We will take on board your comments re written information and will ascertain exactly what information, in addition to the daily activities and entertainment schedule, would be of use.

As a retired care manager, I cannot rate Holbrook Hall highly enough. My mother can be a difficult person to deal with, very critical and determined to have her own way. She herself says "it's very nice here" and "the food is lovely". That is praise from her! The carers are patient and tolerant and
treat each resident with the dignity they should have. Individual care needs are addressed and provided for.
Reply from Morag Vaughan, Director at Holbrook HallIt is always good to get feedback from 'care professionals', and we are delighted to have received such a glowing review.

My aunt has received excellent care since becoming a resident at Holbrook. The management and staff go above and beyond to make her feel she is at home with their warmth and caring attitudes. The facilities are amazing and she joins in as much of the entertainment as possible. I often catch her participating
in the crafts on the excellent, witty, social media feeds. She especially enjoys sitting out in the garden and pottering in the sunshine, which she always enjoyed at home.
This is a beautiful home with exceptional grounds and I am always made to feel so welcome when I visit.
Thank you for all you do for my aunt; it is much appreciated.
Reply from Morag Vaughan, Director at Holbrook HallWe love having your wonderful aunt at Holbrook Hall. She settled in quickly and is really enjoying the company along with all the activities and entertainment provided. Thank you for taking the time to provide such a positive review.

I was a regular visitor to Holbrook Hall whilst my friend was being cared for. I cannot speak highly enough of all levels of staff. The care and attention given to all the residents and the activities laid on are second to none.
I will have no hesitation in moving my mum into Holbrook Hall when the
time is right, it really is home from home. The management team is excellent and I feel this shows in all areas. Throughout Covid the staff only ever put the residents first, keeping the residents safe was upmost priority.
Holbrook Hall is a family-run home and this shines through in all aspects of care.
The home is friendly, welcoming and clean with fabulous grounds and superb rooms.

Holbrook Hall has been a centre of excellence for my mother, who moved there nearly 7-years ago.

For the past 2 and a half years my auntie has been a resident at Holbrook Hall where she has the utmost care from professional staff on all levels. I might also add the wonderful way in which they acted all through the Covid lockdown last year by keeping our loved ones safe. So I would like to say a

Holbrook Hall is excellent! Staff are always happy and extremely helpful. My friend settled into the routine and absolutely loves the great food provided. Its gardens are very well cared for and residents and visitors, like myself, love being sat outside. Management are always hands-on in the home and
work hard to make sure everything is perfect! It's like a five-star hotel! Well done!

Holbrook Hall is wonderful! I could not recommend this place enough. The care and attention that the staff gives to my mum has been brilliant. Also, in light of everything that’s going on at the moment, the home has taken some excellent preventive measures to keep the home Coronavirus free, which has
really taken a weight off of my mind. Thank you for all the hard work and dedication you all put in, it’s very much appreciated.

I have written before about how fantastic I think Holbrook Hall is but I want to add now how impressed I am by the way the team is handling the current situation we are experiencing in the UK.
As well as closing the home to non-essential visitors very early, the manager has communicated with us really
well and outlined all the protocols in place to keep the residents safe and well. On phone calls with my aunt she tells me how wonderful the team are and how well looked-after she feels.
Auntie often chooses not to take part in the many activities on offer but she was gently persuaded to join in with the VE Day afternoon tea in the garden recently and she obviously had a great time because she can't stop talking about it! Well done to all there for involving her - when I looked at the pictures and video and saw her smiling and laughing it made me cry very happy tears!
I have visited a lot of care homes in my time and can honestly say that Holbrook Hall is the absolute best.

My wife's aunt has lived at Holbrook Hall for nearly a year now and she loves absolutely loves it. The owner, manager and the whole team are so warm, friendly and caring and she really couldn't be in better hands. The home is lovely and welcoming, the shared areas are delightful, the bedrooms are super
and the gardens are stunning. There are a wide range of activities on offer to promote social engagement and well-being and the residents and team members are such a delight to chat to. The food looks delicious and auntie always tells us she thoroughly enjoys her meals and snacks.
We have been most impressed with the way the home has managed the current situation with the Covid-19 outbreak in the UK. They stopped all non-essential visits in plenty of time (very sensibly before the 'official' lockdown) and there has been excellent communication throughout including arranging video calls for residents and their families. Thank you to all at Holbrook, we think you are truly wonderful.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.813)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.813) out of 10 for Holbrook Hall is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 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 4.813 for Holbrook Hall is calculated as follows: ( (332 Excellents x 5) + (56 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 395 Ratings = 4.813
  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 Holbrook Hall is based on 33 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2, which has been reached with 33 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.

Ann

Ann Henshaw

Job Title: Registered Manager Joined: 2025

I have worked in adult social care for over 38 years, beginning my career as a Night Care Assistant. I developed skills both through life experiences and academic studies in health and social care which enabled me to progress to the role of a Deputy Manager and onto a Registered Manager, which I have been for over 8 years.


I believe that the key to managing a great care home is sound leaderships skills, excellent communication and candour and that anything is possible with risk management. I have bult solid professional relationships with residents and their families and external professional services.


Working in adult care is wonderful and I feel it is a privilege and honour that the residents at Holbrook Hall have allowed me into their lives. I work closely with staff and the residents so that their goals and milestones are achievable and help them to make magical memories they thought would be impossible, possible.

I have worked in the care sector for seven years, and during that time I’ve developed a deep passion for delivering compassionate, person-centred care. As Deputy Manager at Holbrook Hall, I’m committed to creating a warm, supportive environment where residents feel truly valued and understood.


I’m known for my positive outlook on life, and I bring that energy into my work every day.

Job Title: Team Leader Joined: 2024

I am a dedicated Team Leader at Holbrook Hall, driven by a genuine passion for supporting and enriching the lives of older adults. While completing my full-time doctoral research in Chemistry, I worked as a part-time carer in the UK, gaining valuable experience across adult education, research, teaching, and the care sector. These combined experiences, together with my health and social care qualifications, have strengthened my professional practice and helped me build strong, trusting relationships with residents, families, professionals, and my care team.


My PhD research focused on developing neurosensors for brain-tumour detection and targeted drug delivery. Although my academic background is highly scientific, I find the greatest fulfilment in delivering compassionate, person-centred care.


Supporting elderly individuals who rely on our help brings me deep purpose and joy, and continues to inspire my commitment to adult care.
