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. ?
Run by Barchester Healthcare Homes Limited, Hilderstone Hall is a nursing home in Nr Stone, Staffordshire with 51 registered beds. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia, younger adults and people with a physical disability. That is larger than most homes in Staffordshire, where the typical home has 28 beds.
The Cottage, 5.2 km away, is the closest home rated Outstanding. It is one of 210 homes run by Barchester Healthcare Homes Limited. 175 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. In Staffordshire, 78% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from April 2026. 85% of homes in Staffordshire also score 5.
