My wife has been a resident at Cosham Court for 2 years now. She is very well looked after and cared for. The nursing care and everything the staff do for her is of the highest standard. I and our 2 daughters are really appreciative of everything that is done for her. She couldn't be in a better place
to be looked after. We are so pleased all is working so well. Its a great weight off our minds - we have no worries about her - things are working so well. Many many thanks to all at Cosham Court.

My sisters and I were very pleased with the care given to our father in his final weeks. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming and I was kept informed of any concerns regarding Dad's wellbeing. His wishes were listened to and acted on as were mine. The home was kept very clean. I would like
to thank everyone again for the help and support we received during Dad's stay and following his passing.

Review from Christine M (Wife of Resident) published on 11 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My partner came home after many weeks in hospital, and I cannot praise the care she is receiving enough. From the moment she arrived, she was treated with respect, dignity, and genuine kindness. Every member of staff-nurses, carers, cleaners, kitchen staff-goes above and beyond to make sure she is well
looked after. A special thank you to 4 staff members who remain patient, reassuring, and compassionate even in difficult moments.


The home is very clean and has a warm, caring atmosphere. I visit regularly and am always greeted with kindness and smiles. It is lovely to hear laughter and singing from residents and staff. There are always activities in the lounge, and even watching films feels like a little cinema experience.


Finally, none of this would be possible without the Manager and Administrator, whose professionalism and genuine care create such a safe, homely environment at Cosham Court.

I cannot thank Cosham Court House Nursing Home enough for the incredible care they gave my mum during the last two months of her life. From the moment she arrived, she was treated with compassion, dignity, and genuine kindness. Not only did they look after her so lovingly, but they also supported me
and my family through one of the hardest times of our lives.
Every member of staff went above and beyond, making sure Mum was comfortable, respected, and surrounded by warmth. The home itself has such a caring atmosphere, and you can truly feel how much the team care about their residents.
A extra special thank you to 6 members of staff - your compassion, patience, and gentleness meant the world to us. You made Mum's final days so much brighter and gave us comfort knowing she was in the best hands possible.
We will always be grateful to Cosham Court House for the love and care you gave. You are all angels in our eyes.
Best wishes

What a happy environment!
From the first visit of the home to our last, everyone on the team were friendly, helpful and always smiling.
Choosing a home for a family member is one of the hardest things you have to do but choosing this one, is easy.
My Nan had a short stay here, 9 days in total but
every day she heard laughter, she was cared for to the highest standard. She was kept clean, her dignity was respected highly, her room was cleaned daily and every carer and nurse wore a smile. They checked her frequently and were very attentive to all her needs, kept her as comfortable as she could be.
My Nan said herself that the care she received was EXCELLENT (and she really emphasised that). She said she felt safe and that she felt as though she really mattered - and that to us is everything!
I can't express the high standard of care that i saw whilst visiting daily, there is a lot to compliment! My sincere gratitude will always be held high for all the staff.

The gentleman I visited and was his contact for his stay in Cosham Court was well cared for during his 18 months stay. His personal needs were addressed and he was treated with kindness and dignity, even when he was difficult. Whenever there were concerns about his well-being, I was always contacted
and when necessary he was visited by a doctor. I always received a warm welcome following a 100 mile journey to visit. Overall I know he was given good care and died peacefully. A huge thank you to Cosham Court staff.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my father (2020-1) and my mother (April-Nov 2024) have been residents under the long-term care of Cosham Court Nursing Home. So I write this review on the basis of consistent observations across those years. I could never lavish enough praise upon, nor commend more highly, the diligent staff and
excellent quality of care I have seen. One senses that the happiness and well-being of residents truly matters to the nursing staff for whom care is no doubt a vocation and not merely a job. In the course of our regular visits, we came to know some of the nursing staff well, and had no doubt of their dedication to their work as carers nor any doubt that the quality of care for both my parent was of the highest order. Finally, but not least, I must commend the manager and administrator under whose excellent management such a consistent culture of quality care and diligence has been enabled. The kindest, friendliest, and sincerest people one could hope to manage a nursing home.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.793)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.793) out of 10 for Cosham Court 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 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.793 for Cosham Court is calculated as follows: ( (275 Excellents x 5) + (41 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 328 Ratings = 4.793
  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 Cosham Court is based on 27 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, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.05 Points for the next five 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 47 registered maximum number of service users is 9.4, which has been reached with 27 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.
