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. ?
Porthaven Care Homes Limited runs Haddon Hall Care Home, a nursing home in Buxton, Derbyshire with room for 75 residents. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia and younger adults. Most homes in Derbyshire are smaller: the median there is 30 beds.
In May 2024, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. Its previous rating, in September 2023, was Inadequate, so the home has improved. Of the 33 standards CQC scored, 4 fell below good. The lowest was “workforce wellbeing and enablement” (significant shortfalls).
Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in November 2025. That is true of 93% of homes in Derbyshire. In Derbyshire, 81% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). None of the 4 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. 3 of Porthaven Care Homes Limited’s 3 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups).
