Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
When we arrived four or five staff greeted my husband and said "Welcome Back" (his second stay). He was well looked after and a carer helped with his morning showers. I had lunch with him on the day he arrived and on the day after I returned from a short holiday and enjoyed an excellent well presented
lunch on each occasion. I appreciate his chance of a break in such attractive surroundings as caring can be tiring when one is 86.

I have found the care and attention that we have received for my mum as excellent. All the staff are caring and compassionate. Beautiful outdoor space and a coffee shop for relatives to use and this has been wonderful. Also giving us lunch and nothing is too much trouble. If you need to go into a care
home, this is going to be the best you are going to get! Only one thing that the toilet is not working in the bedroom and there is horrible limescale in the toilet.

Review from Donia C (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 September 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father moved into Blenheim House in May and passed away mid-August. His stay was much shorter than I anticipated but it was long enough for me to form a very positive impression of the care centre. It has beautiful gardens, delicious food, light and airy rooms and varied activities, but it is the
attitude of the staff that so impressed me. Dad had a room on Clover Street, the Dementia floor, and was very frail and vulnerable; the staff were wonderful with him, showing such compassion and understanding and he had settled well. During the last week of his life he was receiving end of life care which was very distressing for the whole family, but once again the staff were wonderful; Mum was able to sit with him and they extended their support and understanding to her during that sad time. It is impossible to fully express my gratitude, thank you all so much; you are exceptional people and it has been my privilege to meet you all and watch you doing such wonderful work.
Reply from Angela Boxall, Head of Operations at Blenheim House Care Home

Review from Trish S (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 14 August 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
My father-in-law would often be left unclean, unwashed and in old clothes. They didn't accommodate to his personal needs and he was often left with no one to talk to. There were a few incidences where staff shouted and upset my father-in-law. They lost his false teeth, TV remote, clothes, and other
things. When we questioned the staff about him they were rude, unaccommodating and acted as though all the issues either weren't a problem or as though it wasn't their fault.
They shrunk his designer jumper and when questioned about it, pretended it was in the wash for months hoping we would forget about it when in actual fact they didn't want to tell us they had ruined it. We took all our issues up with the manager who was awful and patronising. We moved our father-in-law to another home where he was much happier and the staff were wonderful.
Reply from Angela Boxall, Head of Operations at Blenheim House Care Home

Thank you to the family for taking the time to provide feedback, which we always truly value.


I accept that back at the time to which the comments relate, February 2016, there were shortcomings in this gentleman’s care and in the way that the family’s concerns were initially handled. As with any concerns raised, we take these very seriously and seek to improve by listening and reflecting on all feedback provided. I subsequently investigated this matter myself, met with the family and provided a formal response.


As part of the continued development of the home, a new manager was appointed and we are confident that the care and hospitality services being delivered to our residents have been enhanced.


I am pleased to announce that the progress achieved by Blenheim House has been recognised by the CQC and we have received an overall ‘Good’ rating relating to their recent inspection.


We are always pleased to welcome visitors to Blenheim House and are confident that you will find an approachable and motivated team with happy residents.

When the time comes for a parent to go into a care home, it's not an easy time. Finding somewhere like Blenheim House has made that transition the best for mum that it could possibly have been.
Aesthetically beautiful, bright and airy. It's not what you normally think of when using the words "care
home". However, it's the staff and quality of care that makes Blenheim absolutely fantastic. Always smiling, always going the extra mile to make mum as settled and safe as she could be. I am so grateful mum is in such a great home.

Mum was very poorly when she came to Blenheim House after having a nasty fall in August. The staff were wonderful. Very caring and attentive to her every need. Unfortunately, she was bedridden and couldn't use her hands. I can't fault any of the staff. We always had a lovely welcome and were treated
as friends. Wonderful food and great facilities. Would highly recommend Blenheim House.

I cannot thank all the staff for their love and care for my father, especially during the last few days of his life and I could not have wished him to be in a better place. They not only cared for him as they would have done for their own family, but the level of care shown for myself and the rest of

My wife spent her last few weeks at this centre. She had serious physical problems and her mental capacity was severely affected by her medical drugs. At all times the centre staff did their best to maintain her dignity and comfort level. They exhibited a high level of personal involvement and concern.
At all times I and other visitors were given as much help as possible and always made very welcome to her bedside.
I thank all the care and nursing staff for their determined effort to my wife's last days as peaceful and as dignified as possible.

Review from Sandra F (Sister of Resident) published on 28 December 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We, as a family, moved our loved one into this nursing home to be closer to us all and from the moment we stepped in, without prior appointment, through the doors we were welcomed warmly and shown around the premises. We met staff and residents who were all very relaxed and friendly. The rooms are
all spacious en-suite and adorned with resident's own personal effects. The carers are all very professional and help each other when needed. Great efforts are made to preserve dignity at all times for residents. Dietary requirements are an important requirement. Medication is strictly adhered to and monitored by qualified nurses on each floor 24/7. This is more like a retirement village than a nursing home. a lost of thought has gone into providing a beautiful home for the whole family. Even a cinema where visiting children can view a movie/library/hairdressing salon etc is available. Beautiful gardens overlooking farmland lend to a peaceful environment. Activities and trips out locally are enjoyed, weather permitting, for those who are able to join in. Management always available to help. This is indeed a gem of a find and we are delighted with all aspects of care.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.645)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.645) out of 10 for Blenheim House Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.645 for Blenheim House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (244 Excellents x 5) + (53 Goods x 4) + (15 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 321 Ratings = 4.645
  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 Blenheim House Care Home is based on 26 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 85 registered maximum number of service users is 17, which has been reached with 26 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.

I am motivated to see our residents and staff being engaged, happy and living a quality of life that is meaningful to them. Supporting our staff team and helping them achieve their personal goals is something I am passionate about.
