mam has been in solway house in maryport for 2 years the staff are brilliant and attentive to mam and all our family this place should be nominated in the NHS as a 5 star residential place for your family member to be looked after in their later life
Excellent homemade food and plenty of it, activities etc, garden party, pie and pea suppers everyone welcome.
As a family during Mams final illness the care given to us was above and beyond, nothing was any trouble.
we can not praise Solway House highly enough, and would recommend it to anyone looking for residential care for their family members.
nutrition is first class every member of staff are professional approachable and ensure the residents needs are met to the fullest. it really is a case of rsidents being put first.
Lovely caring staff, nothing is too much trouble, the lounge is comfortable and the conservatory is bright and airy. They do encourage independence and the food is home-cooked with good portions on offer and a choice of menu. I was really concerned when my relative had to go into a care home but feel that we landed on our feet when we were sent to Solway House. I can't thank them enough for the care they have given to both of us.
