About
Victoria Court is an Anchor home in Ilkeston, in the Erewash area of Derbyshire, East Midlands. The home has 40 registered beds. In its report published in 2026, the Care Quality Commission rated Victoria Court Good overall. Each of its five key questions (safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led) was also graded Good.
I've written this from the DATA block, which places Victoria Court in Ilkeston. The SOURCE text describes a retirement development at East Park Road in Harrogate, and I left out its details (apartments, grounds, town location, fees and resale information) because the DATA doesn't support them and they appear to belong to a different property. Please check the listing before publishing.
