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. ?

The current CQC rating is Outstanding, published in September 2019. Responsive and well-led were also Outstanding. CQC rated safe, effective and caring as Good. Its previous rating, in March 2017, was Good, so the home has improved. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 57% of ratings in Oxfordshire are as old (how rating age varies by council).
