Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 32 good, 1 exceptional. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
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. ?
Field Lodge is one of 132 care homes in Cambridgeshire: a 72-bed nursing home in St Ives, run by Care UK Community Partnerships Ltd. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with mental health needs. The typical home in Cambridgeshire has 35 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
In Cambridgeshire, 92% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in June 2025. 88% of homes in Cambridgeshire also score 5. It is one of 106 homes run by Care UK Community Partnerships Ltd. 97 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
In July 2026, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in March 2023. The typical rating in Cambridgeshire is about 7 years old, so this one is fairly recent. None of its 33 scored standards was below good, and 1 were exceptional.
