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. ?
Voyage 1 Limited runs Waterbeach, a residential care home in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire with room for 4 residents. CQC registers it to look after older people, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism and people with a sensory impairment. That is smaller than most homes in Cambridgeshire, where the typical home has 35 beds.
In April 2018, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 64% of ratings in Cambridgeshire are as old (how rating age varies by council).
The nearest home with a higher rating is Fitzwilliam House Care Home (Outstanding), 4.6 km away. It is one of 241 homes run by Voyage 1 Limited. 217 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. In Cambridgeshire, 92% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in July 2025. That is true of 88% of homes in Cambridgeshire.
