A Harrogate care home has been named among the UK's top 100 care homes in a new national ranking.
Vida Court has been recognised by elderly care finder Lottie, making it the only care home in Harrogate to feature in the 2026 index.
Located near RHS Harlow Carr Gardens, Vida Court provides specialist care for people living with dementia and Huntington's Disease.
The home is made up of eight individual houses and can accommodate up to 100 residents.
The national ranking assessed care homes across the UK using more than seven criteria, including regulator ratings, facilities, activities, enquiry handling and media information.
Each home received a score out of 10 based on the combined results.
Vida Court was also named among the UK's top 10 care homes for wellbeing.
Will Donnelly, Co-Founder of Lottie, said:
"The launch of Lottie’s Top 100 Care Homes is about recognising the incredible dedication of care professionals who make a real difference in people’s lives every day.
"Choosing a care home can be one of the most challenging decisions families face.
"That’s why our Top 100 Care Homes is based on robust data, reviewing key criteria such as regulator ratings, facilities, and how well enquiries are handled, to give families trustworthy insight into homes that deliver exceptional care in their area."
He added:
"To be named among the Top 100 from every care home Lottie partners with nationwide is a huge achievement.
"These care homes aren't just meeting residents' needs; they're redefining later living by creating vibrant, supportive communities that deliver exceptional care and experiences.
"Congratulations to the team at Vida Court Care Home for their well-deserved national recognition in Lottie’s Top 100 Care Homes, including being named in the Top 10 for Wellbeing."
According to Lottie, average care costs in Harrogate are £1,217 per week, with the new index designed to help families compare care homes using transparent and reliable information.
The full list of Lottie's Top 100 Care Homes will be published on Monday 13th July.
