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. ?
La Cura House is a 60-bed nursing home in Berwick-Upon-Tweed, Northumberland, run by Berwick Care Ltd. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia and younger adults. The typical home in Northumberland has 36 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. Across Northumberland, 91% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in October 2026. 95% of homes in Northumberland also score 5.
In February 2022, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. That matches its previous rating, from April 2019.
