Review from Lynn W (Sister of Resident) published on 6 May 2026 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My sister was made comfortable after a very late night 12pm arrival home after hospital treatment. Staff and management were helpful and respectful to myself and sister. The physio staff helped my sister and helped regain her mobility. The kitchen chef was to be praised for excellent fresh homemade
cooking. Thank you to all the staff and management.

My Godmother was cared for by the wonderful staff at Orchard House for five weeks over Christmas. We are all so grateful to them for their hard work and care. The team helped Auntie May with her rehabilitation following a hospital stay, she has now returned home. In her words "They saved my life, they
are absolutely fantastic."

I found the staff to be all you would expect in their occupations. My partner has been here twice now, and allowing for the odd occasion, I can find no real fault with the care of my other half.

Used for day care only for my wife so I cannot comment on rooms. She seems to be well looked after.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum is in Orchard House care home and since she has been in there, her mobility has improved and she looks so well. Mum her own room, she has lovely meals and she joins in with activities. The activities are great and they are on every day. It's lovely to see mum and other residents joining in
. The meals smell lovely and they get a choice of meals. The activity staff keep families informed about up and coming events taking place so that we can loin in if we wish to. All the staff at Orchard House are friendly and polite. I am so glad that mum is in Orchard House because I can go home knowing mum is being cared for so well. A***** to all the staff for doing such a good job.
Reply from Kirsty Barnes, Care Manager at Orchard House Care HomeThank you so much for your kind words and lovely review.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I found Orchard House has very friendly staff; they are always happy to help. The accommodation is always clean, my cousin was always well looked after. he is not an easy character due to autism, deafness and sight problems. I found him to always be clean and comfortable. The staff made me feel welcome
with a friendly cup of tea when I visited.

Having got to the point when my wife had to go into full-time care. I had a really good look around the area.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.793)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.793) out of 10 for Orchard House Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 8 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 4.374 for Orchard House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (44 Excellents x 5) + (37 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 91 Ratings = 4.374
  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 4.419 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Orchard House Care Home is based on 8 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 3.65
    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 52 registered maximum number of service users is 10.4. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 10.4 = 0.769
  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.
