Abbey View Celebrates Colten Care’s Top 20 Recognition for the 10th Year Running

At Abbey View Care Home in Sherborne, we’re delighted to be part of Colten Care’s continued success, marking ten years recognised among the Top 20 large care home groups in the UK by Carehome.co.uk.
This recognition is based on thousands of independent reviews, and we’re especially proud of the warm feedback we’ve received from those who have experienced our care first-hand. With an Outstanding CQC rating and a 9.9 out of 10 review score, Abbey View is often praised for its responsive nursing team, calm atmosphere, and compassionate support during both short stays and longer-term care.
One recent respite resident shared:
“I was initially reluctant to go into respite care, but I’ve returned home in a much better state. The team were kind, understanding and supportive. They put me back together.”
We’re also privileged to build strong relationships with families. Another reviewer wrote:
“From the first time we visited, we were treated with care, kindness and friendship. You are just a super, super team.”
