Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 25 good, 8 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. ?
An independent residential care home in Bristol, South Gloucestershire, Edgemont House is run by an organisation of the same name. It has 14 beds. CQC registers it to look after older people and younger adults.
Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in March 2026. 86% of homes in South Gloucestershire also score 5. In South Gloucestershire, 96% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%).
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in June 2025. Its previous rating, in June 2023, was Requires improvement, so the home has improved. That is more recent than most ratings in South Gloucestershire, where the typical rating is about 4 years old. 8 of its 33 scored standards were below good, including “workforce wellbeing and enablement”.
