About The Red House

The Red House is a residential care home in Warwickshire, providing personal care for older people, including those living with dementia. The findings below set out the CQC's most recent assessment of the service.

The Red House is a residential care home providing personal care to 18 people aged 65 and over, with capacity for up to 23 residents, including those living with dementia. The service operates from an adapted residential property spread across two floors, with ground floor accommodation including a communal lounge, dining room and garden access, alongside two further bedrooms on the first floor.
