Terms of use

Last updated 13 October 2026

Who we are

CareHomeUK is run by Burfield Digital Limited, a company registered in England and Wales with company number 05980969. By using the site you agree to these terms.

What the directory is

A free list of the care homes on the public registers in England and Scotland, with what the regulators published about them. A listing is not a recommendation: registration means a home is allowed to operate and is inspected, not that it is right for you. Before you choose, visit, read the regulator’s current report, and get fees and terms in writing. We take no fee from any home for listing it or for sending you to it.

Where the information comes from

Registration details, ratings and grades come from the Care Quality Commission and the Care Inspectorate under the Open Government Licence v3.0, and we do not change what they published. We refresh them weekly, but a register can change between refreshes, so check the regulator’s live record, which every home links to.

Using the site

You may use the site for your own search for care. You may not copy it in bulk, scrape it, or use it to build a competing directory. The register data itself is available from its source on the licence’s own terms.

Our responsibility

We take care to show the registers accurately, but we cannot guarantee they are complete or current, and we are not responsible for decisions made on them or for the care any home provides. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

Complaints and changes

About this site, email hello@besthomecarers.com. About the care itself, raise it with the home first; in England you can then go to the Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman and tell the Care Quality Commission, and in Scotland the Care Inspectorate investigates complaints about registered care services. We may update these terms and will change the date above when we do. They are governed by the law of England and Wales.
