CQC hasn't inspected this home for more than 5 years. It re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating doesn't count against a home on this site, but it may not reflect the home today. ?

Kevlin House, 3.5 km away, is the closest home rated Outstanding. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from December 2025. 89% of homes in Norfolk also score 5. In Norfolk, 67% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%).
