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. ?
Stoke Knoll Rest Home is a 25-bed residential care home in Eastleigh, Hampshire, run by Mr & Mrs R C Northover. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia and people with mental health needs.
Across Hampshire, 85% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in February 2026. 84% of homes in Hampshire also score 5. It is one of 2 homes run by Mr & Mrs R C Northover. 2 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. Of the 5 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
Its CQC rating, from February 2018, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in September 2015. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Hampshire, 46% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
