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 Heathcotes Care Limited, Whitley Farm is a residential care home in Whitley Bridge, North Yorkshire with 9 registered beds. Its CQC registration covers younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. The typical home in North Yorkshire has 29 beds, so this one is on the small side.
In North Yorkshire, 86% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in June 2025. 94% of homes in North Yorkshire also score 5. 45 of Heathcotes Care Limited’s 52 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups). Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
In April 2020, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. That matches its previous rating, from September 2017. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 49% of homes in North Yorkshire. Here is how rating age varies by council.
