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. ?
CQC's register shows no registered manager for this home. Every care home must have one. The home may be recruiting, or a new manager may be applying to CQC. ?
Seymour House is one of 485 care homes in Kent: a 6-bed residential care home in Herne Bay, run by Achieve Together Limited. It is registered to care for people with a learning disability or autism. It is a small home for Kent, where the median is 24 beds.
Across Kent, 79% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in February 2025. 90% of homes in Kent also score 5. There is no registered manager on CQC's register right now. It is one of 139 homes run by Achieve Together Limited. 115 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
In January 2019, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. That matches its previous rating, from July 2016. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Kent, 45% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
