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. ?
Home Close is a 72-bed nursing home in Fulbourn, Cambridgeshire, run by Healthcare Homes Group Limited. It is registered to care for older people and people with dementia. Most homes in Cambridgeshire are smaller: the median there is 35 beds.
Its CQC rating, from February 2020, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. That matches its previous rating, from July 2017. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Cambridgeshire, 64% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
89 other homes in Cambridgeshire share its tier, “Good”. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in June 2026. That is true of 88% of homes in Cambridgeshire.
