Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 12 good, 21 below good. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
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. ?
CQC's register shows no registered manager for this home. Every care home must have one. The home may be recruiting, or a new manager may be applying to CQC. ?

Bells Piece - Care Home Learning Disabilities in brief
Leonard Cheshire Disability runs Bells Piece - Care Home Learning Disabilities, a residential care home in Farnham, Surrey with room for 13 residents. It is registered to care for older people, younger adults and people with a learning disability or autism. The typical home in Surrey has 30 beds, so this one is on the small side.
CQC last rated the home in March 2026, giving it Requires improvement overall. Safe, effective and well-led were also Requires improvement. For caring and responsive, the rating was Good. That is down from Good in June 2018. The typical rating in Surrey is about 4 years old, so this one is fairly recent. Of the 33 standards CQC scored, 21 fell below good. The lowest was “independence, choice and control” (some shortfalls).
