Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Dad has been at Weald Heights since November 2024. Over the past nine months the staff have worked hard to get to understand my Dad's needs and interests, and to tailor their care accordingly. They communicate clearly and regularly with me and other family members so we know how Dad is getting on
between our visits. It is to the staff's credit that they remember each of our names and are welcoming when we visit. The coffee bar and outside space is very well stocked and maintained and gives me and other family members an ideal venue to meet with Dad when we visit. In summary, my Dad is very settled at Weald Heights and me and my family appreciate all the care and support he is receiving from the Weald Staff team.

We are delighted with the care Mum is receiving at Weald Heights. We moved her from another home in the area a few months ago, and every effort was made to ensure the transfer was as quick and as smooth as possible. Since then, she has put on some much-needed weight and is doing well. The home has a
positive, happy feel and all the staff we have met are very kind and professional. We do not live locally and have appreciated the regular phone and email communication. Mum has Alzheimer's and has been sensitively cared for since she arrived. We cannot comment on activities as Mum isn't able to participate fully. If you are considering a home in Sevenoaks for a family member, we would highly recommend Weald Heights.

What a wonderful home! Mum has been at Weald Heights since October. She started on the ground floor but it was clear after a few weeks that she needed more help and after Christmas she moved upstairs to a fabulous room with a lovely view. She is very happy and the staff are gently encouraging her to
join in the various events on offer. The staff are brilliant and so caring. They are very welcoming when I visit and I am always surprised that everyone seems to know my name. I am able to make mum a cup of tea or coffee when I visit. Mum says the food is delicious and has put on weight, she was obviously not feeding herself properly. I can't recommend this home enough and I am so glad that mum is safe and happy. The staff call me to inform if mum needs a GP visit or is going on an outing. I would like to thank Weald Heights for all the wonderful care that they give mum.

All my interactions with Weald Heights have been excellent, and a recent review meeting to discuss my mother's care was no exception. The staff in attendance were attentive and reactive, and they clearly summarised our agreed action points. The staff gave me and my sister (who also attended the meeting)
plenty of time to discuss my mother's care requirements and her overall wellbeing. My mother has been a resident of Weald Heights since mid-May 2025, and to date every member of staff at the home has been extremely kind and helpful. Thank you all.

We were really delighted to hear that Weald Heights has been awarded 'Outstanding' by the CQC. We know what goes on behind the scenes to achieve this fantastic result, having both been subject to either CQC or Ofsted inspections at various stages in our careers. It totally reflects our experience with
the dedication of your staff in caring for my father and the visible improvements in his health and wellbeing since being at Weald Heights over the last couple of months. Please would you pass on our best wishes to all the staff particularly those wonderful people on the 2nd Floor.

My father has dementia & has been a resident at Weald Heights since December 2024. We have found everyone to be kind, friendly & welcoming to Dad & all our family. He has received excellent care & all the staff have worked very hard to find ways to engage him & keep him occupied. The activity programme
is amazing & offers something for everyone. Dad has paritucally enjoyed the wonderful singers & musicians. The food is excellent & we all enjoy the delicious cakes in the cafe when we visit Dad. We feel Dad is extremely well looked after & treated with dignity at all times. Thank you to everyone at Weald Heights.

My husband has been a resident of Weald Heights since late December 2024. During this time, he has been treated with dignity and kindness by all the staff, and although he does not want to join all the activities, he does enjoy the musical afternoons and namaste sessions. He enjoys visits to the cafe
and short walks in the garden. I am very pleased with he care he is receiving and I enjoy my visits to see him as I am met with a welcoming smile and happy greeting from all the staff.

Review from Gill K (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Following a health scare my father chose to move to Weald Heights having seen the tremendous care my mother received when she was there. He knew he would be safe and happy and well looked after.
At Weald Heights he really felt at home. He loved the staff and the feeling of companionship he gained
from all those around him. He loved the reception room where he could read his papers and see the world by.
But when his health took a downturn that was when we were simply in awe of the care that was provided. My father was so well looked after 24 hours a day, he was very old school and the respect with which he was treated was wonderful. He might have been physically frail but mentally he was switched on throughout and he would always tell me how well he was being cared for.
Losing my father was incredibly sad but thanks to everyone at Weald Heights it was never distressing and we knew that my father passed with love and dignity. We could not have wished for anything more.

My mother was a resident a few years ago and her experience was so good that when it came time for my father to consider assisted living, there was never a question about where he wanted to live. The home is in a fantastic location with excellent facilities, all fantastically well maintained, but it's
the staff that make it so special. Incredibly high standards, all exceptional professional, kind and thoughtful which creates a wonderful atmosphere for residents and visitors alike. Truly outstanding !

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After a week in hospital, Dad moved into Weald Heights 3 months ago. He has mixed dementia and doesn't know where he is, but is happy there and very comfortable. The care is outstanding and very professional. Every staff member is so kind, caring and welcoming. They have gone to great lengths to get
to know Dad and us, and to find out what makes him tick and what might keep him engaged and occupied. They have even set up an 'office' for him in a corridor, where he can 'go to work'. The food and facilities are excellent. Dad likes going with us to the café and chatting to whoever is there, and has recently enjoyed coffee outside on the patio. The daily entertainments programme is fantastic, with one-to-one chats and garden walks, crafts, physical exercises, hand massage, amazing singers and musicians, and escorted minibus outings. We feel that Dad is being superbly looked after with dignity. We have no hesitation in recommending Weald Heights. A big thank you to all the wonderful staff.

Great experience from the initial phone call to ask for respite for 2 weeks in 1 week's time. The positive response from a particular member of staff organised very efficiently. Lovely warm reception on our arrival. Reception staff, carers catering staff, and nurses are very caring, responsive, and
kind. My father felt well looked after and it aided his recovery after a hip operation. The food was excellent, he loved talking about what he'd eaten. The cafe is a lovely place for us all. Thanks. Great experience, would recommend it to all.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.817)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.817) out of 10 for Weald Heights 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 61 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 60 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 4.817 for Weald Heights is calculated as follows: ( (609 Excellents x 5) + (92 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 717 Ratings = 4.817
  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 Weald Heights is based on 60 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 80 registered maximum number of service users is 16, which has been reached with 60 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.

Maria Covington

Job Title: Home Manager Joined: 2016

I’m a registered nurse by training and have worked in older people’s care for 25 years. Before joining Weald Heights in 2016, I had managed a large care home for ten years. I’ve been at Weald Heights since before it opened its doors. I’m delighted at the way my team and I have made it a home with a first-class reputation.


I believe in setting the standard, rather than following, and we take an innovative, personalised approach to resident care. When residents said they fancied learning a new language, we set up Spanish lessons and joined with a local parent and toddler group so that the generations could learn together. And when a gentleman, who is a keen musician, wanted to visit the Royal Albert Hall for his 90th birthday, we worked with his family to make it happen and to give him an unforgettable day.


I was delighted with our ‘good’ rating from the CQC, which we gained in September 2018. I’m now looking forward to continuing to work with my skilled and passionate team to go one better. Our aim now is to become an ‘outstanding’ provider of great care for older people in Sevenoaks, and across Kent and the South East of England.
