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 Boat House is one of 268 care homes in Staffordshire: a 8-bed residential care home in Tamworth, run by Pharos Care Limited. It is registered to care for younger adults and people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Staffordshire, where the typical home has 28 beds.
Its CQC rating, from August 2023, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in September 2019.
Across Staffordshire, 78% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 4 out of 5 in February 2026. 85% of homes in Staffordshire score the top mark of 5. None of the 5 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. It is one of 6 homes run by Pharos Care Limited. 2 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding.
