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. ?
Ivelhurst Nursing Home is an independent 58-bed nursing home in Yeovil, Somerset, registered with CQC under its own name. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia and younger adults. The typical home in Somerset has 25 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
The nearest home with a higher rating is Grovelands (Outstanding), 0.3 km away. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in June 2026. 94% of homes in Somerset also score 5. 124 other homes in Somerset share its tier, “Good”.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in May 2019. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in September 2016. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Somerset, 31% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
