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. ?
Solway House is a 18-bed residential care home in Maryport, Cumberland. The home is its own registered provider. Its CQC registration covers older people and younger adults.
Its CQC rating, from October 2019, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. Its rating before that, in March 2017, was the same. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 42% of homes in Cumberland. Here is how rating age varies by council.
Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in February 2026. That is true of 90% of homes in Cumberland. Across Cumberland, 79% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating.
