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. ?
Somerforde Limited is an independent 34-bed residential care home in Newton Abbot, Devon, registered with CQC under its own name. Its CQC registration covers older people and people with a physical disability.
Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. Across Devon, 90% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in June 2025. 86% of homes in Devon also score 5.
In June 2022, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. Its rating before that, in May 2019, was the same.
