CQC hasn't inspected this home for more than 5 years. It re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating doesn't count against a home on this site, but it may not reflect the home today. ?
60 Bullpond Lane is one of 64 care homes in Central Bedfordshire: a 6-bed residential care home in Dunstable, run by Voyage 1 Limited. CQC registers it to look after younger adults and people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Central Bedfordshire, where the typical home has 24 beds.
Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in January 2024. 90% of homes in Central Bedfordshire also score 5. 26 other homes in Central Bedfordshire share its tier, “Good”. Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. 217 of Voyage 1 Limited’s 238 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups).
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in May 2019. That matches its previous rating, from March 2016. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 44% of homes in Central Bedfordshire. Here is how rating age varies by council.
