Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 27 good, 1 exceptional, 5 below good. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
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 Bluecroft Estates Limited, Wrenbury Nursing Home is a nursing home in Nantwich, Cheshire East with 33 registered beds. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia, younger adults and people with a physical disability.
Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in October 2026. 95% of homes in Cheshire East also score 5. Across Cheshire East, 77% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. It is one of 3 homes run by Bluecroft Estates Limited. 3 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. Of the 5 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
Its CQC rating, from June 2026, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in March 2018. The typical rating in Cheshire East is about 4 years old, so this one is fairly recent. Of the 33 standards CQC scored, 5 fell below good.
