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. ?
Hale Place Care Homes Limited runs Hale Place Farmhouse, a residential care home in Tonbridge, Kent with room for 13 residents. CQC registers it to look after older people and people with dementia. The typical home in Kent has 24 beds, so this one is on the small side.
16 other homes in Kent share its tier, “Outstanding”. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from December 2025. 90% of homes in Kent also score 5. It is the only Outstanding home among the 7 closest.
The current CQC rating is Outstanding, published in November 2017. Caring, responsive and well-led were also Outstanding. For safe and effective, the rating was Good. That matches its previous rating, from May 2015. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Kent, 45% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
