  • Wimborne Manor, Wimborne Minster
Wimborne Manor is the newest addition to Morar Living. It is a purpose-built care home designed around the people who live here. From the first step inside, the atmosphere feels warm, calm and genuinely welcoming.

Just moments from Wimborne Minster, days can include a gentle stroll through a town full of character—then back to light-filled spaces that feel like home.

This modern 67-bedroom home offers small household-style living, with each household enjoying its own kitchen for familiar routines and shared mealtimes. An in-house cinema creates easy, sociable moments; on-site hairdressers add confidence-boosting self-care. Cosy lounges and landscaped gardens provide comfortable spaces for conversation, fresh air, and quiet time.

Care is person-centred—shaped around individual preferences, daily rhythms, and what matters most to each person. Thoughtful, attentive support aims to reduce worry, lift mood, and make everyday choices feel simple.

Imagine life here: a favourite film in the cinema, a fresh trim at the salon, lunch made just the way it’s liked in a household kitchen, and the charm of Wimborne Minster on the doorstep. It’s a setting designed to feel familiar, dignified, and genuinely enjoyable.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.075)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.075) out of 10 for Wimborne Manor 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 Wimborne Manor is calculated as follows: ( (11 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 11 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 3.075 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Wimborne Manor is based on 1 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 = 3
    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 67 registered maximum number of service users is 13.4. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.4 = 0.075
  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.
