Lovely home, always clean, and the staff are all very kind and helpful. My Nanna enjoys the activities and enjoys taking part when possible. She enjoys being able to go in the bath and having the hairdresser come to do her hair.

Cannot say enough about Langley House, the staff and management are always on hand and can't do enough for my mam, she is always smiling and never has a bad word to say. She always has plenty of activities to do each day which she loves and her room is the best always clean and tidy and warm for her,
I can honestly say she is thieving in this home and would recommend it to anyone looking for a place where their loved one is happy and well looked after and treated as part on one big family.

Cannot fault the care our mam receives, it is one of the best care homes going and deserves the rating of outstanding. We as a family can go home knowing she is well looked after. They go above and beyond and staff are always friendly and caring. Management, we can't fault in any way, again they go
above and beyond. And always take pride in their job and do anything for the residents, there are always activities going on, and always see smiles on their residents' faces.

Langley House has a great atmosphere with light and airy rooms. Staff are always smiling and nothing is too much trouble if you ask them for anything. My mam has been resident here for a few years and you feel welcome when you visit. Plenty of entertainment for the residents with trips out to various
venues or for ice creams at the seaside. We are very happy with the care provided.

My mum came into this care home two years ago. I have been extremely pleased with most things. I don't think I could have picked a better care home for her.
Most of the staff are extremely helpful, friendly and caring.
The management is extremely approachable and friendly and does a really good job!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.898)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.898) out of 10 for Langley House Care 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 50 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 50 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 4.898 for Langley House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (544 Excellents x 5) + (45 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 596 Ratings = 4.898
  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 Langley House Care Home is based on 50 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 50 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.

Job Title: Registered Home Manager Joined: 2022

I have worked in the care sector since the age of 18. I completed a Health and Social Care course in sixth form and completed a 6-week placement in a care home, and from then I knew working in care was what I wanted to do. I started as a Care Assistant and progressed to Senior Care then Deputy Manager then Manager. I have completed my GNVQ in Health and Social Care, I have my NVQ levels 2, 3, 4 and 5. I started for Ascot Care in 2007 as Senior Carer then Deputy Manager in 2009 till I progressed to Home Manager of Langley House in 2022.


During my 2 years at Langley House, we have gone from “requires improvement” to “Good” in all areas, and we are the first home in the North East to be a Veteran Friendly Accredited Home, which is an achievement.

Job Title: Deputy Manager Joined: 2021

I have worked at Langley House since 2010. I started as a Kitchen Assistant and worked my way up to Carer, Senior Carer and now Deputy Manager. I have my NVQ level 2 and 3 in Health and Social Care and I have my NVQ in Team Leading. When I started as a Kitchen Assistant it was lovely working with the elderly and made me want to progress in the care side, which I have loved over the past 14 years. We are the first home in the North East to be a Veteran Friendly Accredited Home, which is an achievement. I take a great interest in this as I have family in the service, and it has been very rewarding to complete this accreditation.
