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. ?
Middlefields House is a 48-bed residential care home in Chippenham, Wiltshire, run by Pilgrims' Friend Society. It is registered to care for older people and people with dementia. That is larger than most homes in Wiltshire, where the typical home has 21 beds.
The nearest home with a higher rating is 79 Malmesbury Road (Outstanding), 1.3 km away. Pilgrims' Friend Society runs 12 care homes, and 10 of the 12 rated are Good or Outstanding. Across Wiltshire, 90% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from January 2026. 89% of homes in Wiltshire also score 5.
Its CQC rating, from December 2022, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in October 2018.
