I could not recommend Scarborough Court highly enough, all staff have treat my grandma like a family member with so much compassion and care from day one. The care provided is excellent and very efficient, all members of staff are extremely knowledgeable and friendly at all times and always making the
time to answer any questions. The facilities are exceptional with plenty of activities/events provided to cater for all residents and family members to partake and enjoy. I could not ask for a better place for my grandma to call home!

My mam has been in Scarborough Court for a year now. She really didn't want to be there at first but they have gradually won her over. The staff are so kind and patient with her, even when she is being stroppy and rude ! My brother and I couldn't be happier with her care, all the staff are so friendly
with us and nothing is ever a problem to them. I would 100% recommend this home to anyone.

My mam came to live here after suffering a stroke in January. I could really not recommend enough the staff and the care provided by Scarbrough Court. Not only to the care they are providing with my mam, but the love and care for all of us as a family. I really would say they create a home from home,
the cleanliness, the food everything really is 5 star. We appreciate the support of all the staff within the home.

I have recently moved my mother here from another home, I can not praise the home or staff enough. The difference in my mother in the last 2 months is nothing short of remarkable. Several of my mother's visitors have made comment on how lovely it is to visit her and to go to the home because of the
friendly & homely atmosphere that is created by everyone.

My Mum has been at Scarbrough Court for 7 months now and I feel very grateful that she has a place there. My mum went from being an active, independent lady to needing full time nursing care after a significant stroke. During the last few difficult months the Scarbrough court care staff, nurses and
management have all been so kind and supportive. Mum receives excellent care in a clean and pleasant environment. The food seems to be very good and the kitchen staff are accommodating of mum's complex dietary needs. There are also regular enrichment activities organised, which makes for a friendly and inclusive atmosphere.

Reply from Samantha Buxton, Home Manager at Scarbrough Court

Thank you so much for your wonderful comments, after such a significant life changing event not only for Mum but for you as a family, that by Mum moving into Scarbrough Court has given you all, the reassurance that the care that Mum is receiving is excellent care.Thank you again for your lovely words.

Mam came to live in Scarbrough Court in March 2024 until she sadly passed away in November 2025. I can honestly say she had an amazing experience as did all the family. The support, care, friendly and approachable staff (who were more like family) and love from everyone was first class and I would
not hesitate to recommend this care home to anyone!
Thank you for everything xxx

My mam went into Scarborough court following a long stint in hospital 5 years ago. It was a very difficult time as it was right before covid lockdown. The staff helped her settle in and stepped in where I wasn't able to. They kept me up to date with everything and still continue to do so. She's on
nursing and has lots going on medically but she's so well cared for the nursing team are always on the ball. She has her favourite carers who always manage to put a smile on her face when she's feeling upset or agitated. But all the team are so nice and caring I don't worry at all about her as I'm updated or informed when I need to be. The home itself is lovely..rooms are bright and big..nice grounds.. always something going on. Wouldn't have wanted mam anywhere else.
Thankyou team..you are appreciated.

I have unfortunately had to visit three other homes over recent months and I can honestly say this one is by far the best. The staff not only care for my husband but are there for me also. I feel that they are my friends. There are many activities arranged and trips out in the mini bus. A party was
held for my husband's 90th Birthday. I get the feeling when I go on that the staff enjoy their work. I think the 5-star ratings say it all.

Dad has been living at Scarborough Court now for a year & I would just like to thank everyone for everything they do.
Dad is very happy there & is well looked after, cared for and fed well, even liking a little glass of cider now & again.
There is plenty of activities, trips & things for Dad to
do if he feels up for it.
Everyone is approachable if I have any concerns about anything, & strive to do the best for all of the residents.
I would recommend Scarbrough Court 100%

My Mum has been at Scarbrough Court for 6 months and I am very happy with the care she receives. Her needs are quite complex and she receives excellent medical support, I am always kept updated regarding her health issues and any further external practioner support/care required and conducted.
All

I feel confident that my lovely Mum is good hands and well cared for at this time in her life, it's very difficult finding somewhere that ticks all the boxes and I feel like Scarbrough Court was a good choice. Thank you for giving her the kind and considerate care she deserves.

My dad chose Scarborough court as his end of life care unfortunately it came sooner than expected at only 11 days .
My dad received the most professional, caring and outstanding care in his short stay . Staff were attentive and intuitive to my dad's needs . As a daughter I could not have wished for
more . My dad was very happy.. Scarborough court is a beautiful homely and caring environment. Staff are attentive , professional and are clearly there because they care . I couldn't have wished for a more perfect place for my dad to be in his final days and will always be grateful for their care

Dad has only been here for four week now but has settled in very well, thanks to all of the staff here. They are very friendly and attentive. They seem to be prepared go above and beyond to help. The nursing staff have been most helpful with dad's requirements and medication. They also arranged for
the local minister from the nearby church to visit him.
We are delighted that dad is living here and know he is being well looked after. Thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.890)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.890) out of 10 for Scarbrough Court is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 37 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 36 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.890 for Scarbrough Court is calculated as follows: ( (386 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 427 Ratings = 4.89

  • b) 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 Scarbrough Court is based on 36 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 58 registered maximum number of service users is 11.6, which has been reached with 36 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
