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. ?
The home changed owner in March 2026. Its rating dates from before the change. ?
This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. ?
Tanners is one of 246 care homes in Hertfordshire: a 7-bed residential care home in Abbots Langley, run by Royal Mencap Society. CQC registers it to look after younger adults and people with a learning disability or autism. It is a small home for Hertfordshire, where the median is 30 beds.
Across Hertfordshire, 76% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Its kitchen was rated 4 for food hygiene in February 2026. In Hertfordshire, 92% of homes score 5. Royal Mencap Society has run the home since March 2026, when it changed owner. It is one of 26 homes run by Royal Mencap Society. 25 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. The nearest home with a higher rating is Arden House Nursing Home (Outstanding), 1.7 km away.
In October 2023, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. The rating was carried over from a previous registration, which usually happens when a home changes owner. That is more recent than most ratings in Hertfordshire, where the typical rating is about 5 years old.
