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. ?
Barchester Healthcare Homes Limited runs Newton House, a nursing home in Grantham, Lincolnshire with room for 115 residents. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with mental health needs. The typical home in Lincolnshire has 30 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in June 2021. That matches its previous rating, from December 2020. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Lincolnshire, 36% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
About 0.8 km away, OSJCT Gregory House is rated Outstanding. 175 of Barchester Healthcare Homes Limited’s 198 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups). Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in October 2025. That is true of 95% of homes in Lincolnshire.
