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. ?
Sandfields is one of 194 care homes in Gloucestershire: a 90-bed nursing home in Cheltenham, run by Care UK Community Partnerships Ltd. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with mental health needs. Most homes in Gloucestershire are smaller: the median there is 25 beds.
Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. Care UK Community Partnerships Ltd runs 106 care homes, and 97 of the 102 rated are Good or Outstanding. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from January 2026. 91% of homes in Gloucestershire also score 5. In Gloucestershire, 87% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%).
