Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 30 good, 3 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. ?
Chacombe Park is one of 104 care homes in West Northamptonshire: a 79-bed nursing home in Banbury, run by Barchester Healthcare Homes Limited. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia, younger adults and people with a physical disability. That is larger than most homes in West Northamptonshire, where the typical home has 22 beds.
Barchester Healthcare Homes Limited runs 210 care homes, and 175 of the 198 rated are Good or Outstanding. Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. 43 other homes in West Northamptonshire share its tier, “Good”.
In October 2025, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. Its rating before that, in June 2022, was the same. The typical rating in West Northamptonshire is about 3 years old, so this one is fairly recent. 3 of its 33 scored standards were below good, including “consent to care and treatment”.
