About The Corner House

The Corner House is a small residential care home located on Welbeck Street in Whitwell, near Worksop. It provides care for three residents and is run by Walton Lodge Limited. The home supports people with learning disabilities, older people, and younger adults, offering personalised care within an intimate setting.

Its most recent CQC inspection in October 2023 resulted in a Good rating. The home's size means residents receive care in a domestic environment rather than a larger institutional setting, which some families find beneficial for building consistent relationships with care staff. The Worksop area offers reasonable access to local amenities and healthcare services in the East Midlands region.
