  • Holmleigh, Lincoln
Holmleigh is a high-quality care home with deceptively modern facilities. It is in a rural location just outside Navenby with glorious far-reaching views of the surrounding countryside from many of the well-appointed rooms, all of them being en-suite.

Originally a substantial detached property in a large garden, Holmleigh has been considerably extended with three additional single storey wings at the rear. There are several lounges, two spacious dining rooms and a lift to the upper floor in the main house.

The home is maintained to a high standard inside and out, with all the facilities one would expect for comfortable and relaxing older people's living. Extensive visitor parking is available on-site.

From the moment you step into Holmleigh you can feel the friendly and homely atmosphere. The staff aim to provide the finest quality of care and understanding for your loved ones. They go out of their way to provide the support that residents need to help them live a fulfilled and active life according to each person's individual needs. Residents from all walks of life are catered for.

The home manager has been running Holmleigh for almost 20 years now and together with the deputy, and all the other staff, they make the home into what it is today - the best choice of care in the area with a genuine family feel.

Review from B T (Son of Resident) published on 5 December 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The care home had a welcoming environment was clear the staff were attentive and friendly. Food was excellent and the activities were stimulating. My mother felt safe and enjoyed her time at the care home, so much so that she said Holmleigh would be her care home of choice if she ever had to move to
one on a permanent basis.
Reply from Hazel Carelton, Manager at HolmleighMany thanks for your kind words. We look forward to seeing her when the time is right.

My mother moved to Holmleigh for palliative care. The whole team were sensitive and caring in meeting her needs. There was an attention to detail and standards that gave my mother confidence in her health and care needs being met to a high standard.

The manager and staff at Holmleigh Care Home have provided excellent care and support whilst my dad was at the care home. Even up to the time of his passing, they were absolutely amazing including the night duty manager whom I only met twice had all been very supportive, informative and simply very
caring up to the end. I would happily recommend this care home.

My mother was only in Holmleigh for three months, but during that time, her care was excellent. All the staff were friendly and caring.

My mother was only resident at Holmleigh for a few weeks, but in that time she was cared for very well by both staff and management.

Review from Paul K (Son of Resident) published on 1 January 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 90-year-old Mother was finding it increasingly difficult living alone in the home she had been in for 53 years. She moved to Holmleigh and was initially very homesick. That was 5 weeks ago. Now she wouldn't want to be anywhere else. It's impossible to single out any member of staff to commend as
they are all wonderful. Mum can't fault the way she is being cared for and neither can we. Not all care homes feel like home. Not all care homes care. Holmleigh scores on both. Mum has made new friends of both the staff and residents and is constantly telling us how well she is being looked after and that nothing is too much trouble. The way that any minor issues are communicated to me by the staff give me complete peace of mind that Mum is OK. If you are reading this you probably have some difficult decisions to make. Choosing Holmleigh will be the right answer to one of them.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother is very happy at Holmleigh and often says that if she needs to be in a care home she is happy to be in Holmleigh.
The care is excellent and all her immediate and long-term needs are attended to.
She does say that her room is small but it is adequate.
The main issue is that she is safe
and feels well looked after.

The care given and the friendliness show to my mother by the staff and management at Holmleigh is very reassuring to me and my family.
Nothing is ever too much trouble for them.

My mother in law has been in the home for 2 years. The experience I have had has been fantastic. From the manager down to the odd job man, nothing is too much trouble. When she's been unwell, they go above and beyond their duties. It is well clean, the food choice is excellent with plenty of choice.

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.310)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.310) out of 10 for Holmleigh 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 3.4 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 Holmleigh 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 3.352 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Holmleigh 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 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 = 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 44 registered maximum number of service users is 8.8. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.8 = 0.227
  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.
