Boldshaves Oast is a residential care home in Ashford in Kent, run by Canterbury Oast Trust. It is registered for up to 14 residents and supports older people, younger adults and people with a learning disability or autism.
Its latest CQC rating, published May 2018, is Good overall, and Good in all five key questions. This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner.

CQC decides when to re-inspect based on risk, so this isn't a mark against the home, but it's worth asking what has changed since.
