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. ?
Hobbs Field is one of 333 care homes in West Sussex: a 15-bed residential care home in Horsham, run by West Sussex County Council. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a learning disability or autism and people with a sensory impairment. That is smaller than most homes in West Sussex, where the typical home has 27 beds.
In January 2019, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. That matches its previous rating, from July 2016. The rating is more than 5 years old. In West Sussex, 32% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in January 2026. That is true of 92% of homes in West Sussex. 209 other homes in West Sussex share its tier, “Good”. None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. West Sussex County Council runs 5 care homes, and 4 of the 5 rated are Good or Outstanding.
