Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 29 good, 4 below good. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
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. ?
Madeira House is one of 279 care homes in Lincolnshire: a 51-bed residential care home in Louth, run by Madeira Care Home Limited. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a sensory impairment. Most homes in Lincolnshire are smaller: the median there is 30 beds.
Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in August 2025. 95% of homes in Lincolnshire also score 5. In Lincolnshire, 76% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
Its CQC rating, from April 2026, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. That matches its previous rating, from March 2019. That is more recent than most ratings in Lincolnshire, where the typical rating is about 4 years old. 4 of its 33 scored standards were below good, including “infection prevention and control”.
