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 home changed owner in September 2025. Its rating dates from before the change. ?
This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. ?
Half Acre House is an independent 25-bed residential care home in Rochdale, registered with CQC under its own name. CQC registers it to look after older people and younger adults.
Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in May 2026. 60% of homes in Rochdale also score 5. Across Rochdale, 65% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Half Acre House Residential Care Home Limited has run the home since September 2025, when it changed owner. Of the 5 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in June 2018. The rating was carried over from a previous registration, which usually happens when a home changes owner. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in April 2017. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 33% of homes in Rochdale. Here is how rating age varies by council.
