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. ?
Run by Colleycare Limited, St Matthews Care Home is a residential care home in Redbourn, Hertfordshire with 79 registered beds. Its CQC registration covers older people and people with dementia. The typical home in Hertfordshire has 30 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in February 2019. Its rating before that, in May 2016, was the same. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 53% of homes in Hertfordshire. Here is how rating age varies by council.
Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in March 2026. That is true of 92% of homes in Hertfordshire. 121 other homes in Hertfordshire share its tier, “Good”. 14 of Colleycare Limited’s 19 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups). None of the 5 nearest rated homes has a higher rating.
