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. ?
Howe Dell Manor is a 19-bed nursing home in Hatfield, Hertfordshire, run by Nouvita Limited. CQC registers it to look after older people, younger adults and people with mental health needs.
Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. Nouvita Limited runs 2 care homes, and all 2 rated are Good or Outstanding. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in October 2026. 92% of homes in Hertfordshire also score 5. Across Hertfordshire, 76% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England.
In October 2023, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. That is up from Requires improvement in July 2019. That is more recent than most ratings in Hertfordshire, where the typical rating is about 5 years old.
