Cotleigh has 62 large, en-suite bedrooms, each with a shower. Residents are encouraged to make their rooms feel like home by adding personal touches like photos, ornaments, or a small sofa. The hallways are spacious, and there are plenty of shared areas, all nicely decorated, with ongoing updates.

The dining areas have a personal feel, shaped by residents and staff. There is also a bar where residents can enjoy drinks, games, and singalongs, and families can reserve it for private meals or celebrations. They recently added a games room with a high-tech table, board games, and a reading corner. The tea room hosts monthly afternoon teas, and families can book it for gatherings.

The garden has ample seating, including shaded areas, and features a cocktail bar. They host themed events like a garden party, Alice in Wonderland, and country nights for residents, families, and the community.

Residents enjoy twice-weekly “music to movement” classes, visits from miniature ponies, singers, and outings to places like Yorkshire Wildlife Park, the beach, and local pubs.

There is a hair and beauty salon for hair and nail appointments, with a hairdresser visiting weekly, plus a jacuzzi bath for relaxing. A doctor visits weekly, and they coordinate health services like chiropody and dental care.

Meals are homemade, with residents helping to choose the menu. Favourites include fish and chips, pies, and ginger biscuits. The kitchen team also provide nourishing soups and milkshakes for those needing extra nutrition.

Residents have freedom here—they can move around, eat, and go out as they like. Some stay short-term while their home is being repaired or to experience life in a care home, and many choose to return. SheffCare are proud of the caring, dedicated team at Cotleigh, and their strong reputation with nurses, doctors, and families.

Mum has been at Cotleigh for a few months now and I cannot praise highly enough the care she has been given over that time.
Her having to go into a residential home is something we have tried to avoid for quite a while but we eventually had to come to the painful decision.
Cotleigh is a wonderful
care home. They made Mum and our family feel so welcome from the start. All the staff are friendly, caring and professional and go above and beyond to make my mum feel safe and happy. She is treated with dignity and respect at all time.
Mum’s room is well-furnished, spacious and clean. She has been allowed to bring some of her own things in to personalise it. It overlooks a beautiful garden which we are looking forward to using in the warmer weather.
Whilst still allowing her to control her decisions, there are plenty of activities for her to take part in. She has made friends in the home which is lovely to see.

We're so touched to hear such positive feedback about Mum's experience at Cotleigh. It's heartening to know that she's well-cared for and the decision, though difficult, has been met with a warm and welcoming environment. Thank you for sharing this update, and I'm pleased to hear that Mum is in such capable and caring hands at Cotleigh.

Cotleigh provides a safe and comfortable environment for my mum. She has deteriorating memory loss. Her dignity is always respected, and her needs are cared for. I had tremendous guilt about Mum going into care, but Cotleigh has helped lessen this burden and worry.

Mum has been a resident for a few weeks now. I researched all care homes in Sheffield before deciding on Cotleigh. Upon visiting - the reception was bright and welcoming, with many beautiful Christmas decorations as well as homely Christmas trees/lights and decorations throughout the wings. I could
see that there had been a great effort to achieve this presentation.
My mum has quickly settled into her new home, where the staff are so kind, caring and available to discuss any issues that may arise. All staff are approachable for any concerns and help.
Mum has told me that she feels safe and happy now as the staff are so lovely.
Thank you to everyone.

What a wonderful afternoon the care home gave my mother, it was her birthday and they did a lovely afternoon tea, with a singer who was really good with all the residents who were also there. The staff were fantastic, so caring and thoughtful to everyone, including our family, nothing was too much trouble.
What a lovely way to spend a birthday with such good friends and family. Thank you all so much.

Reply from Amelia Charlesworth, PA to CEO at Cotleigh

I'm delighted to hear that your mother had such a wonderful birthday celebration at the care home! It sounds like the afternoon tea and the talented singer created a delightful atmosphere.
It's heartwarming to know that the staff were caring and considerate, making both your mother and your family feel special. I'm glad to hear everyone had a fantastic time. Wishing your mother continued happiness and many more joyous moments ahead!

My mum was in Cotleigh for the last year of her life. She could not have been anywhere better. The staff are kind, caring and very attentive to her needs. The team leaders were quick to call the GP and district nurses when needed, who are close by. I am very grateful for the care my mum received and
I felt confident to leave her in Cotleigh. I live nearly three hours away but was always kept informed of any issues.

Reply from Amelia Charlesworth, PA to CEO at Cotleigh

I'm truly sorry for your loss, but I'm glad to hear that your mother received exceptional care during her time at Cotleigh. It's comforting to know that the staff were not only kind and caring but also attentive to her needs; being kept informed, despite the distance, must have provided some peace of mind during a challenging time. Your gratitude speaks volumes about the quality of care provided at Cotleigh. Please accept my heartfelt condolences, and I hope you find solace in the knowledge that your mother was well taken care of in her final days.

I would like to give my heartfelt thanks and gratitude to the staff at Cotleigh for the care my mum has received the last year and especially the last few days before her death on the 7th of March. I had a very hard decision to make whether to send Mum to hospital or for her to spend her final days
at Cotleigh and I’m glad I chose the latter. The carers were angels making sure she was as comfortable as possible and felt loved. They also looked after me and my family for two days and nights and comforted me when the inevitable happened. The care at Cotleigh is second to none. Mum passed with dignity and love and I will always be grateful to them.

I found the carers very professional and good. Also, they were very nice especially good with the residents, cheerful and positive attitudes with them. They provided a very good 90th Birthday for Mum including music for her to dance to. A young helper also one day made me and Mum tea and buns like a
private intimate tea party. When it came to Mum's final few hours alive they helped me and my sister to be by her side and made it as painless as possible for us and Mum. Thanks for all you did for Mum.

Attended Valentine's afternoon tea on the 15th of February, what a fabulous time experienced. I was unsure if Mum would attend as she had been ill in bed with a chest infection the week before but due to the wonderful care she is given she has once again pulled around and was included. The effort and
the detail that staff put into the planned activity are fabulous with the outcome clearly providing a good time for residents and visitors despite their level of dementia.

I have known my friend, a resident at Cotleigh Care Home, for over seventy years and have not been able to see them since the Covid crisis. It was wonderful to see them this last week and I was very impressed, both in the care home itself and the lovely relationship I saw between staff and residents.
Best wishes to you all.

A friendly, caring place to call home. Always clean and decorated to a high standard. Staff are great with guests and visitors. My mum has gained weight and is happy, so meals must be good! Special events are celebrated throughout the year. At this time, Christmas is the theme. The reception is spectacular

My sister and I visited on 26th November to see our mum. We were greeted by 4 elves, mother Christmas and Father Christmas. Needless to say, we were not expecting that! The staff and volunteers here go the extra mile to make the residents comfy, safe and well looked after. This in turn means as relatives
we feel that Cotleigh provides all we would want it to. Special thanks go to the staff and the volunteers who have made the place a magical grotto. Please consider rewarding your staff accordingly.

I visit my best friend of fifty-four years on average twice per week. My own father was a resident here for three years until his death hence I am therefore very familiar with this home. I also have experience over lengthy periods of regularly visiting three other homes in respect of my mother, mother-in-law
and sister-in-law. Of the four homes concerned, this one is, in varying degrees, by far the best. My friend and I have discussed every aspect of the home as listed in the ratings hence the ratings marked. He repeatedly informs me how happy and content he is at the home and continually praises the staff for how well they take care of him.

When she passed away, during her time at Cotleigh, she was happy, enjoyed all the activities, especially singing and dancing, loved by all the staff.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.861)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.861) out of 10 for Cotleigh is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.861 for Cotleigh is calculated as follows: ( (329 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 360 Ratings = 4.861

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cotleigh is based on 29 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 62 registered maximum number of service users is 12.4, which has been reached with 29 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
