Five Care UK care homes named in top 100 list

The UK’s top 100 care homes for 2025 have been announced by online care finder Lottie, with Care UK proud to have five homes on the list – including one in the top five rankings.

Care UK have also been named as the one of the UK’s Top 10 Large Care Providers as part of the Lottie Awards.

The inaugural Lottie Awards recognise and celebrate care homes across the UK that demonstrate exceptional commitment to residents, families, and colleague support. Lottie’s team conducted a comprehensive, data-driven review of thousands of homes across the UK, assessing them against key criteria that matter most to families when choosing care, including CQC ratings, enquiry response times, digital presence, team wellbeing, and resident feedback.

The Care UK winners include:

Chocolate Works stood out for Care Expert Choice, earning its place among the nation’s best, whilst Edinburgh home Lauder Lodge was named within the top five. 

Andrew Knight, Chief Executive Officer of Care UK, said: “Care UK’s core purpose is to ensure that residents live fulfilling lives. Our teams are dedicated to personalising the care offer for every resident, so that it fits with their individuality and their life story. In addition to this, they support relatives through every step of the care journey. This approach is something that everyone at Care UK is passionate about, and it is wonderful to see colleagues being recognised by Lottie in this way.”   

Will Donnelly, Co-founder and CEO of Lottie, adds: “The launch of the Lottie Awards is about recognising the incredible dedication of care professionals who make a real difference in people’s lives every day. To be named among the Top 100 from over 14,000 care homes nationwide is a huge achievement. These care homes are not just meeting residents’ needs, they’re redefining later living by creating vibrant and supportive communities that deliver exceptional care and experiences.”

Care UK is one of the largest care home providers in the UK, with more Outstanding rated homes than any other provider in England and full compliance in Scotland and Wales. For five years, we’ve been the most awarded care home provider in the country, and we are constantly inspired by the passion and hard work of our teams.
