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. ?
Willow Court is one of 123 care homes in Kirklees: a 19-bed nursing home in Mirfield, run by Hollybank Trust. CQC registers it to look after younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism and people with a sensory impairment.
Hollybank Trust runs 8 care homes, and 6 of the 8 rated are Good or Outstanding. About 0.0 km away, The Beeches is rated Good. In Kirklees, 78% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in September 2025. 79% of homes in Kirklees also score 5.
In December 2021, CQC gave it Requires improvement overall, and Requires improvement for each of the five key questions too. Before that, in August 2019, it was rated Good.
