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. ?
Fairholme Nursing Home is one of 198 care homes in Cornwall: a 60-bed nursing home in Camborne, run by Fairholme (NH) Ltd. CQC registers it to look after older people, younger adults and people with a physical disability. That is larger than most homes in Cornwall, where the typical home has 22 beds.
130 other homes in Cornwall share its tier, “Good”. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in July 2026. 87% of homes in Cornwall also score 5. Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
In November 2021, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in February 2018.
