Bourne View Celebrates Colten Care’s 10th Year as a Top 20 Care Home Group

25 April 2025

At Bourne View in Poole, we are proud to share in the celebration as Colten Care marks its tenth consecutive year being recognised among the Top 20 large care home groups in the UK.

Thanks to thousands of independent reviews from residents, families, and friends, our group rating remains an exceptional 9.9 out of 10.

We’re especially delighted that Bourne View has also achieved a perfect 10/10 review score on the independent care review site Carehome.co.uk — a reflection of the outstanding care, welcoming environment, and sense of community we are proud to offer every day.

Colten Care operates 21 care homes across Dorset, Hampshire, Wiltshire and West Sussex, with seven rated Outstanding by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) and the rest rated Good.

Among our Dorset homes achieving a perfect 10/10 are Newstone House in Sturminster Newton, Avon Cliff in Bournemouth, and Amberwood House in Ferndown, alongside Bourne View.

Mark Aitchison, Chief Executive of Colten Care, said:

“As a public review site, Carehome.co.uk is there to demonstrate evidence of third party or independent endorsement. Our consistently high group score has now given us ten years at the top. Having ten homes at 10/10 further strengthens our claim to be the UK’s highest-rated care home group for our size.”
