Review of Exmouth House from Helen B (Daughter of Resident) published on 31 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My dad had to move in to Exmouth House last September following a decline in his mobility and general health. The team are always very welcoming and kind and dad is happy and well looked after. They make a fuss on celebration days and really made a wonderful effort for mum & dad's wedding anniversary earlier this year. I would highly recommend Exmouth House to anyone who is looking for somewhere for their loved ones.

Review of Exmouth House from Anita J (Sister of Resident) published on 30 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My sister has only been in Exmouth House for a short period. In that time my sister has settled extremely well, always appears relaxed and is always clean and tidy. All staff interact really well with the residents and are approachable and professional when I've asked any questions. On my 3rd visit to the home my younger sister and didn't tell the home we were coming for a visit and as I expected. Everything was as it should be. Many thanks to everyone at Exmouth House!

Review of Ernstell House Nursing Home from Karen G (Daughter of Resident) published on 9 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Ernstell House is a very good, friendly and welcoming care home. The Dementia Friendly care side of the home, is second to none, by most of the staff there. The staff are caring, supportive and friendly to their residents and their families. Any problems or if you are unhappy about any particular thing, you can report it and it is sorted as soon as.

My Father has had several incidents at the home, due to his Dementia but they are always dealt with, with great support and calm from the staff.

Review of Ernstell House Nursing Home from Maxine S (Wife of Resident) published on 15 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I feel the care has gone down at Ernstell. We can never find a member of staff when needed an update none of the staff eat the food. I have tasted the food it was awful.my husband has never had pressure sores before he has them now. You don't see any members of staff checking on the residents making they have all they need 70% don't even say Good Morning or Afternoon. Whenever I have complained to the Manager. I have been told, not my words, he isn't a prisoner, move him if you don't like it. Not a good attitude for a Manager.

Review of Ernstell House Nursing Home from Andy B (Son of Resident) published on 9 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My father was cared for at Ernstell House for the last couple of years of his life and I would definitely recommend the home.
In particular, the way my sister and I were treated during his final week made us feel incredibly supported and more importantly allowed our Dad to have a dignified and peaceful passing.
When his condition was really going downhill, the staff were nothing but lovely, respectful and calm. In fact, I can say that about everyone that we saw come into his room that week.

After he'd passed, it was comforting to have staff members come up and tell us how much they liked our Dad and how sorry they were that he had died. We were left with a genuine sense that they cared, which is how you hope it would be.

Review of Ernstell House Nursing Home from Vanessa M (Daughter of Resident) published on 5 December 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Ernstell House in Plymouth has been an absolute blessing for my Dad. From the moment he arrived, the warmth the kindness shown by every member of staff have given me such peace of mind. The team truly treat residents with dignity, patience and genuine compassion, and it shows in the way my dad smiles more, engages more and feels safe. The home itself is always clean, calm and welcoming, and there is a real sense of community. Staff take the time to understand each resident as an individual and keep families involved and reassured every step of the way. Knowing my dad is cared for by people who go above and beyond every day means more than words can say. I am so grateful to the entire team at Ernstall House for the love, respect and comfort they give him. They really do make it feel like home.

5 Stars wholeheartedly.

An excellent nursing home that surpasses expectations.

Excellent qualified staff on each shift 24/7.

My dad has been at Ernstell for approx 1 year now. He is well looked after and treated with dignity. Staff are lovely with him. The accomodation itself is very nice. Good choice of meals. Some good activities organised to keep him stimulated if he wants to take part. Families are kept up to date and included with the activities. Generally we are happy with dad being cared for at Ernstell.

Review of Ernstell House Nursing Home from S H (Son of Resident) published on 19 November 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The staff and the environment are welcoming and professional. Mum's needs are met and she is very well looked after, which gives me peace of mind knowing she's in good hands. This is a happy place for residents, with lots of effort put into entertainment and daily activities to support various needs. The entire team are positive, supportive, compassionate and open to feedback from visitors. The App is particularly useful as it allows me to see how Mum is doing on days when I'm unable to visit. My Father visits daily to spend time with Mum, and it's a credit to the team that he is treated so well during his visits. I feel that the team, the entertainment and the positive atmosphere are a huge benefit to him, even when he's not a resident. Well done Ernstell House.

Reply from Keren Wilkinson, Chief Executive Officer at Ernstell House Nursing Home

Thank you for your wonderful feedback, we strive to care for all the family, not just the resident and I am so pleased that this is your experience. Our staff work hard to ensure that residents live their best life possible and that they have fulfilling days. We will ensure that we pass your positive comments onto the team.

Review of Ernstell House Nursing Home from C W (Sister of Resident) published on 19 November 2025 Submitted via Website

Overall, really good/excellent, but no one is perfect! I would say more training needs to be given to recently appointed staff, as whilst trying their best, overlook fundamental processes.

All staff are polite and say hello and the quality and of care is excellent, once everything has been understood.

Review of Exmouth House from Jennie D (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 November 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Dad has been at Exmouth House for the last 2 and a half years. My brother and I looked round several local care homes but none of them felt quite right for Dad until we went to Exmouth House. The calm, friendly atmosphere, the lovely bedroom, the large communal lounge, the range of activities and the attentive staff made us immediately feel that Dad could be happy there. He settled in very quickly and I feel that he is safe and very well-looked after. The staff quickly got to know him and noticed what he liked and didn't like. The residents are treated as individuals, and always with respect and dignity. My brother and I both feel that we made the right choice for Dad.

Review of Exmouth House from Sue R (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 November 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Exmouth House especially the lovely Kinga, what can I say that woman has boundless energy and always there for you when you need reassuring, nothing ever seems too much trouble. Mum became of resident at Exmouth House a year ago , and I must say I never thought mum would settle, but low and behold she seems to have thrived in there bless her. I would also like to praise the lovely James too, always there when mum is feeling a little down he lifts her sprits and makes her feel like a Queen (his Words).
Thank you Exmouth House for all the love and attention mum receives from you all. I feel safe in the knowledge mum is well cared for and safe in your hands.

One big extended family.

Review of Exmouth House from Ruth W (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 November 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Mum has been at Exmouth House for 3 years. Myself & my brother are very pleased with the care she receives. It's like a home from home . Comfortable, warm with a great atmosphere. The care team are compassionate & go above & beyond to ensure all mums needs are met. Always with a smile & treated with respect & dignity. Kat & Kinga keep us informed of how mum is & always keep us up to date with care or any issues that may occur. They know mum so well & are always on top of any concerns. Mums room is pretty & kept beautifully with all her own photos, books & treasures. Activities are very important to keep mum moving, busy & happy. Liz does a fab job & works hard with willing help from the staff. She invents fun activities. A lot of ideas come from the residents themselves. There are residents meetings so that mum can have a voice & feel valued. Liz is always open to ideas & suggestions . Mums receives regular prayers & holy communion which is important to her. Thank you all

Review of Exmouth House from Tracey S (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 November 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Sadly my Mum passed away in August after living at Exmouth House for just over two years.
I can't begin to say how happy I was with the care my Mum received whilst there and putting my mind at rest. I was kept updated with phone calls and video calls which was lovely. As I live in Essex, it meant I could only get down once a month to see Mum, it was a great relief to know she was well looked after and I could sleep soundly at night.
There were always activities going on and outings. It has a real family feel to it.
The staff are amazing and so welcoming. What I loved was you could just turn up at any time and spend as long as you wanted there.

I would highly recommend Exmouth House, I shall miss seeing all the staff and residents there. Great team that I can't thank enough for everything
