Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 27 good, 1 exceptional, 5 below good. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
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. ?
Run by Stoneyford Sc Ltd, Stoneyford Care Home is a nursing home in Sutton-In-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire with 58 registered beds. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia, younger adults and people with a physical disability. The typical home in Nottinghamshire has 26 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
In December 2025, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. Its previous rating, in April 2024, was Inadequate, so the home has improved. The typical rating in Nottinghamshire is about 4 years old, so this one is fairly recent. CQC found some shortfalls in “infection prevention and control”, one of 5 standards out of 33 scored below good.
Across Nottinghamshire, 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. That is true of 89% of homes in Nottinghamshire. None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating.
