Sable Cottage Nursing Home in Kelsall, Tarporley, has been acquired by JAS Care Homes Ltd, marking the exit of former owner Sunil Patel from the care sector. The deal was overseen by Montane Care, which supported the transition process.
The 38-bed facility, located near Delamere Forest in Cheshire, provides nursing, dementia, respite, and residential care services. The home, rated “Good” by the Care Quality Commission, has established a strong reputation locally for quality care and community engagement.
The acquisition sees JAS Care Homes expand its portfolio in the North West, taking on an established home with scope for continued operational development. The transaction reflects a growing trend of experienced operators divesting assets while newer groups look to consolidate and grow their presence in the care market.
Industry observers note that transactions of this kind highlight continued investor confidence in the UK’s elderly care sector, where high-quality, well-managed homes remain in demand despite broader economic pressures.
