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. ?
G Plane and Miss D Newman runs The Beeches, a residential care home in Luton with room for 12 residents. Its CQC registration covers people with mental health needs.
In January 2018, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. That matches its previous rating, from November 2015. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 44% of ratings in Luton are as old (how rating age varies by council).
None of the 5 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. It is one of 2 homes run by G Plane and Miss D Newman. 2 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. Across Luton, 75% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from February 2026. That is true of 91% of homes in Luton.
