Richmond Villages Bede is a vibrant and integrated retirement community designed to enhance the health, happiness, and wellbeing of its residents. With a wealth of services and facilities available on-site, the village offers a lifestyle that promotes independence, comfort, and connection.

Richmond Villages Bede is an award-winning retirement village set in established grounds located on the outskirts of Coventry, a cathedral city in the heart of the West Midlands.

At the heart of the vibrant retirement village is the care home, with 47 en-suite bedrooms (9 of which are newly refurbished residential dementia rooms), providing first-class residential dementia, nursing, respite and convalescent care and care for the young and physically disabled.

The retirement village features excellent on-site facilities that include a restaurant with a terrace, a number of relaxing sitting rooms, hair and nail salon, free Wi-Fi, activities areas, plus landscaped gardens and an orchard.

All rooms are tastefully decorated by a team of specialist interior designers and feature electric profiling beds, a range of furniture, TV, telephone, en-suite shower room and Wi-Fi access.

The village is run by a village manager and a dedicated team of employees who are trained to deliver only the best possible care to the residents.

Unlike traditional care homes, Richmond Villages Bede uses its carers and nurses solely for the purpose of caring and supporting residents, whilst fully trained hospitality and housekeeping staff look after meal preparation and cleaning.

To further enhance the well-being and enjoyment of residents, the village also has a dedicated activities team. The team provides a daily activities programme that includes day trips where transport is provided by Richmond Villages Bede's own vehicles and dedicated drivers. The village also offers independent and assisted living properties.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Very sadly mum passed away in April of this year. Up until April, she had received unbelievable care from every member of the team at Bede Villiage, from the cleaning staff, restaurant and caring staff you could not have wished for better. Since her passing everyone at Bede has been quite wonderfully
supportive to me. In trying to sell mums apartment the 2 members involved have been so helpful and caring. All my thanks to everyone who has helped me and of course my lovely mum.

Following an operation and then a fall at home, I decided that I needed some care in order to restore my appetite and strength. I spent 5 weeks at Bede Village and quickly restored my independence.

We visit our friends here and are always impressed by the cleanliness, friendly smiling staff, general atmosphere, care provided, opportunities to participate in stimulating activities for residents. The building a beautifully furnished environment, always attractive, modern, well decorated. It is welcoming
and looks efficient and well managed. Only one suggestion/ comment - maybe there could be more time spent chatting/engaging residents in conversation? Then - perfect!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The care of our daughter has been excellent.
Good nursing practices alongside a caring GP practice has prevented her from frequent hospital admissions.
The Nursing Home has a happy, friendly atmosphere and staff listen to patients acknowledging and providing for their needs.
They also listen to relatives
and friends - empathy is part of their care.

I cannot think of a better place to stay. The cleanliness captured by the attention of myself and my wife (since deceased).
The atmosphere is pleasant.
A bit pricey; may be hard to justify. Not enough professional entertainment.

I could not ask for better care. The staff are magnificent. Everybody goes out of their way to say hello and have a little chat with me. I enjoy the facilities and look forward to my weekly hair appointments. The activities are varied and interesting and are the highlight of y day. I enjoy singing along
with the choir, particularly at Christmas. I appreciate the warm welcome Bede village affords my sisters, each time they visit from Ireland.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I don't need to use care or support. I am disabled with spinal arthritis and also arthritis in my hands (as you will see from my writing). I don't use the activities because of my condition. The only activity I use is Holy Communion, once a month. This I can manage because I don't have to sit for long
or stand at all. Also, I am a Christian, I want to partake.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay there. I found it very relaxing, everyone was very cheerful and helpful, nothing was too much trouble, the food was excellent. I was disappointed that the activities were not attended very well, perhaps a little encouragement would help. The gardens were beautiful.

I am very pleased with living here. I am very independent so don't always need to use all of the services provided but the ones I have used have been great. The day trips set up for the home are a great way to interact with others and get out to see different places and the food in the restaurant is
always great, as are the staff around the village.

Management and staff very efficient and friendly. Mum does not always want to join in activities, but when she does, seems to enjoy them. Seems to enjoy the food but sometimes does not eat much. Her appetite is a bit up and down. Mum seems to be settled OK at Richmond Bede.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.562)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.562) out of 10 for Richmond Bede Village 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.562 for Richmond Bede Village is calculated as follows: ( (133 Excellents x 5) + (30 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 178 Ratings = 4.562
  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 Richmond Bede Village is based on 14 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 51 registered maximum number of service users is 10.2, which has been reached with 14 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 joined Bede in 2007 as a Registered Nurse, in 2012 I had the fantastic opportunity to take on the role of Care Home Manager. In 2022, I was successful in becoming the Deputy Village Manager alongside my current role and I now support the Village Manager with the day to day running of Bede.

I also thrive to bring the best out of my staff to ensure that we all work to the highest standard possible.

Job Title: Domiciliary Care Manager Joined: 2014

I joined Richmond Bede Village in August 2014, as the Domiciliary Care Manager.


Following university, my working career started with people with learning disabilities for Coventry City Council, as a Day Centre Officer and a Residential Social Worker.


This was proceeded by 15 years of working in Children’s Services within the Youth Justice System. As a Head of Care, I became accustomed to working within the constraints of the CQC, Ofsted and other similar regulatory frameworks.


Seeking a new challenge, yet wanting to remain in people services I have sought a diversified career in working with a more mature population – hence my application to Richmond Bede Village.


I am looking forward to new experiences and the challenges ahead.

Carol Mcdyre

Job Title: Senior Village Advisor Joined: 2022

I have worked at Richmond Village Bede for 2 years, but it felt like home after 2 weeks.


Having spent 25 years working in the property sector, combining property with retirement and care seemed like a natural progression.


Working in a village environment gives me the opportunity to advise on different types of accommodation to suite different lifestyles and care needs.


It’s a unique place to both work and live.
