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. ?
The John Thornhill Memorial Trust runs Thornhill House Church Lane, a nursing home in Bakewell, Derbyshire with room for 19 residents. CQC registers it to look after older people.
Its CQC rating, from October 2019, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. Its previous rating, in February 2017, was Outstanding, so the home has slipped. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 33% of ratings in Derbyshire are as old (how rating age varies by council).
Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in July 2025. That is true of 93% of homes in Derbyshire. Across Derbyshire, 81% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating.
