Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 29 good, 4 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. ?
Clare Hall Nursing Home is a 57-bed nursing home in Radstock, Somerset, run by Cherry Garden Properties Limited. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia and younger adults. The typical home in Somerset has 25 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
In Somerset, 89% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 4 out of 5 in May 2026. In Somerset, 94% of homes score 5. Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. Cherry Garden Properties Limited runs 3 care homes, and all 3 rated are Good or Outstanding.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in October 2026. Its previous rating, in June 2023, was Requires improvement, so the home has improved. That is more recent than most ratings in Somerset, where the typical rating is about 4 years old. Of the 33 standards CQC scored, 4 fell below good. The lowest was “workforce wellbeing and enablement” (some shortfalls).
