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. ?
Holmwood Care Home is a 21-bed residential care home in Salisbury, Wiltshire, run by Wessex Care Limited. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia, people with a physical disability, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment.
In September 2023, 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 May 2020.
None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. It is one of 5 homes run by Wessex Care Limited. 5 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. Across Wiltshire, 90% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in September 2025. That is true of 89% of homes in Wiltshire.
