The home changed owner in February 2024. Its rating dates from before the change. ?

This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. ?

About Melton House

MH Norfolk Limited runs Melton House, a residential care home in Wymondham, Norfolk with room for 32 residents. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia, younger adults and people with a physical disability.

122 other homes in Norfolk share its tier, “Good”. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in June 2025. 89% of homes in Norfolk also score 5. MH Norfolk Limited has run the home since February 2024, when it changed owner. Of the 5 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.

In December 2020, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. The rating was carried over from a previous registration, which usually happens when a home changes owner. That is up from Requires improvement in September 2019. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 46% of homes in Norfolk. Here is how rating age varies by council.
