The first thing that struck me when I began to live in this home was the friendly nature of all the staff. That has continued throughout my stay. Nothing is too much trouble. From the manager to the latest recruit, their sole aim is to please the client. It was not my choice to be a full-time resident
before, circumstances changed that decision and this was definitely the right one.

Scarlet House is a lovely clean care home, bright and airy. The coffee hub is a great asset in getting residents gathering and chatting with visitors. This area nearly always has a great vibe. On the odd occasion it's empty, guess there's been other activities on as there are quite a lot of these. Rooms
are comfortable and adequate Especially with so many places to go. There's a cinema with a bar, quiet rooms, lounges, a garden and clean dining rooms. Overall a great place.

My mother suddenly lost her sight in June 2024 and was admitted into Scarlet House urgently. Her care has been mostly neglectful until my brother and I contacted the CEO and adult social care having complained to manager, deputy manager and care team, with none or little change. It was only after my
mother fell in her bathroom and broke both hips and was hospitalised that things improved and a safe guarding inspection was carried out. I am much happier with her care now but it has been a long fight to improve it.

My mum has been living in the home since March 2024, she has adapted well and she is content and relaxed. Also she has had less medical problems since she has been at the home. We have had a rough year but the staff have supported us as well as taking good care of our mum. The home was hit with a D&V
virus in November and quickly got their system in place to deal with it and with the nursing and care the residences received prevented a lot of them going to hospital. We have enjoyed the events through the year and feel part of the home.

Scarlet House has a nice atmosphere, very welcoming. Staff are always pleasant and keep me informed of changed or concerns with dad. Lots of effort made with activities and all residents being included when they want too. Dad has taken a while to settle in but he has enjoyed the Christmas period here
and is happier.

We first encountered Scarlet House for a respite stay for my husband in 2024. However after a lengthy hospital stay it was not possible to continue to be cared for at home. He was admitted to Scarlet House. This has proved a successful move, he is monitored and cared for and with his developing dementia
is treated with dignity and patience.

My Mum has been a resident in Scarlet House for over 4 years now. We can not praise the staff on the unit and managers enough for the exceptional care that Mum is receiving.
The activities schedule is really good to and residents are encouraged to take part.
I would recommend Scarlet House to anyone
who is looking for care for an elderly relative.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.583)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.583) out of 10 for Scarlet House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 63 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 61 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 4.583 for Scarlet House is calculated as follows: ( (495 Excellents x 5) + (193 Goods x 4) + (40 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 738 Ratings = 4.583

  • 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 Scarlet House is based on 61 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 86 registered maximum number of service users is 17.2, which has been reached with 61 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.

Suzanne Tullet

Job Title: Home Manager

Joined: 2023

Having previously led the team at Winchcombe Place I’m excited and feel privileged to lead a new team and ensure that everyone’s supported, working together and managing a team I’m proud of.


I started my working career after studying for a Pharmacology degree, which led me to work in a community pharmacy and after hearing all the wonderful things about Care UK I wanted to try something new in my career, so I joined Care UK.


Previously at Care UK I was Deputy Manager at Winchcombe Place and have taken part in the Future Home Manager Program to help me develop my skills and understanding of home to be a successful home manager.


Within my role, I believe you need to be knowledgeable in a wide range of key areas, responsible, approachable efficient and understanding which has helped me develop a successful team.


Outside of work, I love to dance and previously I’ve been featured on television in a dance competition.
