Review from Amanda B (Friend of Resident) published on 23 July 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We were eager to move our relative into Pothaven Care. Our local Porthaven Home location was full and had a waiting list. We had limited time to relocate our relative from his previous care home in Newbury. The nearest Porthaven Care Home with availability was Cotsworld Gate Care Home, just over an
hour's drive away.
Cotsworld Gate is a newly built, modern care home with outstanding facilities and excellent staff. I was thrilled to discover this lovely gem. Upon entering, I was warmly greeted by the receptionist, and from that day, our family felt welcomed, which continued throughout my relative's stay.
This care home felt like a five-star hotel, providing incredible care. As a family, we couldn't ask for more! Sadly, my relative passed away within a week of arriving due to his frailty and treatment from a previous care home. I am grateful he spent his final week receiving the correct care, love, respect, and dignity he deserved.
I highly recommend Cotsworld Gate Care Home. If you are looking for a great care home where both residents and their families are treated with respect and as individuals, please consider Cotswold Gate. You will be amazed, I certainly was!

Cotswold Gate accepted my mum for respite care at really short notice. They were extremely helpful and understanding.
It is a lovely new care home with a warm atmosphere and a light and airy modern decor. All the staff are friendly, kind and caring, and my mum is very well looked after.

I cannot recommend Cotswold Gate enough. They have supported my father and I through an extremely difficult time and made us feel truly welcome. Everyone is so kind and caring and my father wants for nothing. This truly is an exceptional home offering the very best of care.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.481)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.481) out of 10 for Cotswold Gate Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.5 out of 5 from 3 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 5.000 for Cotswold Gate Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (36 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 5
  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 3.481 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cotswold Gate Care Home is based on 3 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 = 3.25
    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 65 registered maximum number of service users is 13. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 13 = 0.231
  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.

Job Title: Home Manager Joined: 2024

Hello, my name is Alison Parry, and I am the Home Manager here at Cotswold Gate Care Home.


I have been in social care since 1993 and have worked as a home manager since 2005, during which year I achieved the Registered Manager Award. I have also held an English Nursing Board qualification in Managing Care for Older People since 2003. Throughout my career, I have maintained a strong relationship with the Care Quality Commission and have had consistently positive outcomes from all previous inspections. I am passionate about providing quality care for senior individuals and feel that everybody should have the opportunity to live a fulfilling life, no matter their care needs.


Outside of work, I enjoy dining out, baking and reading. I have also travelled extensively, usually to visit sites of archaeological interest.
