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. ?
An independent residential care home in Ramsgate, Kent, Wantsum Lodge is run by an organisation of the same name. It has 41 beds. CQC registers it to look after older people and people with dementia. Most homes in Kent are smaller: the median there is 24 beds.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in March 2019. That matches its previous rating, from July 2016. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 45% of homes in Kent. Here is how rating age varies by council.
Across Kent, 79% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in January 2026. That is true of 90% of homes in Kent. Rose Farm House, 2.6 km away, is the closest home rated Outstanding.
