Care Homes Owned by Smart Care Homes Ltd in Devon

Thank you all, from the bottom of my heart.

I moved into Greenacres on 6.2.26 for a months respite care because of a broken shoulder. The home has a very friendly atmosphere and the staff were welcoming, kind and professional and I cannot praise them highly enough, and settled into the routine quickly. I would highly recommend the home to others in their time of need and if I needed care in the future would be more than happy to move in. The garden is stunning and I only wish I had been there in the summer to enjoy and aid recovery. Thanks to everyone for their help and support.

My mothers stay and care was extremely good. The staff (all) treated my mum in such a gentle and sympathetic manner. All of our family were made welcome, kept well informed. In my mum's final days we were checked on regularly, offered tea and biscuits. I would gladly recommend this care home.

I cannot thank them enough. AMAZING.

My grandmother is a resident of Seymour court and has been since September 2024, we can not thank the staff enough for their patience, help, support and understanding of my gran. Her health has declined since her arrival, they always lead with kindness and such tender care, the staff have the kindest heart and always show us and my gran so much grace. We as a family can't thank them enough for all they do everyday, they truly are an amazing team.

After visiting many care homes in Plymouth, Thorn Park was our 14th and instantly the look and atmosphere said 'yes this is the one for mum'. After nine years at the care home mum passed peacefully at the grand age of 96. It felt like a family for mum and myself as I visited her.

Mum booked into respite care as emergency in February as this was the only option. The Home have taken excellent care of her over the last 2 months, so that she is strong enough to get home again. They have made sure her medicines were up to date and that all visitors were welcomed. On her leaving some staff of the home came to wish her the best. At all times, the Home have kept me up to date on her progress and health. I can not fault the care provided by the staff.

Overcrowded- sharing a room with a curtain to divide residents. No ventilation. One shared sink. Bed not suitable, cannot stretch his legs (being checked for foot sores). Boxes of supplies stored in the room. No room for the residents wheelchair in the room with visitors. Staff coming to give my brother in law medication while he's eating his lunch? Staff not patient with residents. On staff member seen on his mobile while feeding a resident. Lack of care, compassion and tolerance.

Delighted with the care my father is getting, the staff are so gentle and caring and my father has settled in quickly and is singing their praises. Thank you to Sarah the manager and Callum care team in particular who have been exceptionally responsive and caring.

My mother was admitted as a NHS emergency and given lovely bright room with a good view. The staff took their time on admission explaining procedures and together with palliative care staff undertook an assessment regarding funding. Mum settled in well and despite her life ending prognosis made friends with other residents during her 18 day stay. Her condition deteriorated and all staff were very caring in helping her adjust to the pain she experienced, with several dr visits. Sadly mum passed away on 5/3/26. We were informed very soon after we visited. Throughout her stay she was treated with kindness and dignity.

We can visit whenever we like and families are invited to events throughout the year.

We can only praise the staff for the care, compassion and wonderful service for my husband, me and my family. I can't thank you enough for everything you have done for us.

We cannot thank Seymour Court Nursing Home enough for the exceptional care given to our father. He first came for respite in 2023 and became a permanent resident from January 2025 until he passed away in January 2026. Dad loved the activities, friendly faces and superb food, and we were always warmly welcomed. Staff treated him with patience, humour and dignity, supporting his independence and adapting as Parkinson's and Lewy Body dementia progressed. The nurses kept us informed and reassured throughout. Every member of the team ensured Dad was always clean, comfortable and well cared for. We are especially grateful to Scarlett, Amy, Cherry, Cheryl, Pasand, Jean, Brenda, Kath, Mariah and Jessie on nights. Seymour Court gave our father comfort, dignity and genuine kindness, for which we will always be thankful.

All in all we could not have asked for anything more from Seymour court during David's 18 month stay.

I could not fault the care and kindness shown by all staff, not only for my sister, but to myself and brother when visiting. Friendly, but not intrusive. Nothing was too much trouble in all aspects of the sad situation that we found our family in. Thank you to each and everyone at Seymour Court.

I would just like to thank the amazing management team and all the dedicated care staff and support team for looking after my wonderful Mum.

Seymour Court is absolutely fantastic. The staff and carers are amazing, very caring, friendly and can't do enough for the residents. It's spotlessly clean everywhere, and the meals they do there for the residents are beautiful and cooked fresh on the premises. I would recommend this home, it's top class, I would give five stars.

The staff at Greenacres independant living are amazing. They treat the residents with dignaty and care. I don't think my mum would want to be anywhere else. The meals are varied and healthy. The staff go above and beyond to make the residents feel safe and cared for.

I must mention the activities that are organised on a very regular basis. They are so well done, are fun and stimulating. And demanding though that is, they also look to support the needs of individuals, including individual trips out of the home when they can.
