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. ?
The Fremantle Trust runs Lewin House, a nursing home in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire with room for 70 residents. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia and people with a learning disability or autism. Most homes in Buckinghamshire are smaller: the median there is 30 beds.
Its CQC rating, from September 2018, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. Its rating before that, in September 2016, was the same. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 54% of ratings in Buckinghamshire are as old (how rating age varies by council).
11 of The Fremantle Trust’s 14 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups). None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. Across Buckinghamshire, 73% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in December 2025. That is true of 90% of homes in Buckinghamshire.
