Celebrating 35 years of exceptional care with UK award
We’re thrilled to be kickstarting Somerset Care’s 35th year with a UK care award based on customer reviews.
Established in 1991, the not-for-profit Somerset Care Group has been recognised as a Top 20 Mid-Size Large Care Home Group by Carehome.co.uk.
Top-rated by customers
The 2026 Carehome.co.uk Awards celebrate excellence in care by recognising the Top 20 highest-rated Care Home Groups in the UK, honouring care homes that have received outstanding reviews from residents, service users, and their families and friends.
Feedback from residents and their families
Eve Mitchell, Somerset Care’s Chief Operating Officer, explains what the accolade means to colleagues across the Somerset Care Group:
“To receive an award for the care we provide is wonderful, but to know that this stems from independently-verified reviews from our customers and their families means so much more!
“We are incredibly proud of the high-quality, specialist care which our care home teams provide, and the difference this makes to our residents and their loved ones. This award recognises their dedication to supporting people to live the life they choose.
“I would like to say thank you to every single customer, resident and family member who has shared their valued feedback on carehome.co.uk. This award means so much because it reflects your experiences of the care we provide.”

Wyndham House day care, respite and residential care home, Minehead
“A lovely welcoming home with the most amazing staff. There’s always something going on for the residents. Every one’s happy there.

“The food is excellent and a good choice. Visitors are made so welcome – home from home.”

“The activities provided every day are a real bonus and have played a massive part in settling my Mum in.
