Bournville House Extra Care in short
Bournville House Extra Care is an extra care housing scheme in Lightmoor Village, run by Bournville Village Trust for older residents [1]. The Trust pages name the scheme and its independent-living rented flats, and the organisation traces back to a 1900 foundation [1] [2]. The Trust site carries contact and support routes for prospective residents [1]. This review treats it as housing with support rather than registered care.
Google reviews are the weakest in this set at the headline level, at 2.5 from 15 ratings [4]. No current care registration was found for the scheme; the register holds only an archived entry [3]. No rents or insurance details are published either [1]. Together that keeps Bournville House Extra Care outside our ranked ten.
Our verdict
Our judgement: Bournville House suits you if you want extra care rented housing in Lightmoor from a long-standing trust [1] [2]. The Google score of 2.5 and the absence of a current care registration count against it [4] [3]. Costs and insurance are not stated, which sits as a gap [1].

Questions about Bournville House Extra Care
Is Bournville House Extra Care any good?
On our evidence, hard to recommend for care: researched for our Telford round but left outside the ranked ten, with the weakest headline customer feedback in the set and no current care registration [4] [3]. It may suit an older renter wanting a Trust flat in Lightmoor. Read the full review and visit before deciding anything.
Is Bournville House Extra Care CQC registered?
No current registration was found: a CQC page for the scheme exists only as an archived 2016 entry, so industry qualifications cannot be sourced [3]. That fits a landlord scheme offering no registered personal care. Check the live register yourself by the scheme name before deciding anything.
What does Bournville House Extra Care charge?
No rents, fees or fee scale are published on the pages checked [1]. Ask the Trust for the weekly rent, the service charges and what each covers. Get every figure in writing before you agree anything. Check what the rent includes before comparing with other schemes.
Where is Bournville House Extra Care?
The scheme sits on Furnace Avenue in Lightmoor, Telford [1]. Contact the Trust through its extra-care page to arrange a visit and confirm suitability. Walk the scheme and speak to residents before deciding anything. Take your questions about support cover along on the day.
