It’s the team at St Breock, who are passionate about enriching the lives of their residents, which make this home special. The home is thriving, with so many activities and experiences which bring such joy.
Run by a manager who has been there for over 16 years and a deputy of over 10 years, the team provide residential and dementia care, and respite care breaks. These can be booked in advance, so are ideal for family carers who would like to plan a short break, knowing their loved one is in safe hands.
The team are passionate about keeping those community connections alive. There are regular entertainers, musicians, and music from the Forget-me-Not Chorus. And to honour a special tradition in Padstow, every year they organise an incredible ‘Obby Oss Strike Up’ festival in the home, with folk singers, musicians and dancers in traditional regalia.
The home even enlisted the help of local school children with its garden revamp, who listened to what the residents wanted, and created some very special designs for judging.
St Breock is in a picturesque hilltop location, with beautiful views across Wadebridge. There are so many places for the residents to enjoy, from trips along the riverside Camel Trail, to ice cream parlours and cafés, and spending time volunteering with the town’s community garden project.
This summer the team took a group of residents for a day out at the Royal Cornwall Show, where they enjoyed everything from tasting cider to paintball gun targets!
St Breock is an immaculate home. In the dining room, residents enjoy delicious, home cooked meals, from roast dinners with all the trimmings to fish and chip Fridays, and home baking for afternoon tea.
There is a welcoming conservatory overlooking the garden, where residents can enjoy activities, spending time with loved ones, or enjoy singalongs with the piano and a hairdressing room, for regular appointments with a mobile hairdresser.

The staff are compassionate and caring and the management team lead well and are very approachable and facilitating. The whole team have adapted their care giving as mum's needs have changed and the respect they show to all residents is exceptional.

I cannot speak highly enough of the care and support my nana receives at this care home. From the moment she arrived, the staff have treated her with such kindness, patience, compassion, and genuine care. It is incredibly reassuring for our family to know that she is somewhere she is not only...
The staff go above and beyond to make sure she is comfortable, happy, and cared for. They treat her with dignity and make her feel like a person rather than simply a resident. The kindness they show her means more to our family than I could ever properly put into words.
What I especially love is knowing that when she is there, she receives an amazing level of care and attention. In some ways, she is treated even better than many people experience in the outside world. The staff take the time to listen to her, talk with her, and make sure she feels included and cared about.
100/10 never a better place to be for my nana.

It is clear that they genuinely love and care for her, and they truly enjoy having her around. Nothing ever seems too much trouble, and they go above and beyond to make sure she is happy, comfortable and well looked after. My mother certainly has them running around after her hand and foot, but they do it with smiles, kindness and genuine affection. The care, compassion and respect they show her gives our family enormous peace of mind. We honestly could not wish for a better team of people to care for her.

My Aunt is in her 90's she has been in full time care at St Breock for 18 month's. On admission she was in poor health and struggled with the transition from living independantly in her own home to living in the care home. The first 6 months were pretty tough for all concerned and to be honest...
I fully endorse the comments other reviewers have made about the calibre of the the staff and the overall good performance of the home. Communication is also very good, with phone, texts and emails used to good effect keeping us informed. We all want our loved ones to be safe, happy and well cared for and that is exactly what St Breock Care Home delivers every day for those they care for.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We understand how difficult that transition can be, and we're so pleased to hear your aunt's health and wellbeing have improved. Your kind words about our team and communication mean a great deal.

The staff clearly care about their work and have worked hard to ensure that my parents need are met and that they are enjoying a quality of life that they deserve, they are being treated with dignity and respect at all times.
Not only are my parents looked after but I and my siblings have also received a lot of time, care and attention from the staff and management which has ensured that at an emotional time for all involved their move into residential care has been smooth and painless.
Overall I cannot recommend them enough.

We looked to put my Mother into a care home over the Christmas period for respite. We did our research and decided upon St Breock in Wadebridge.

My experience from reception through the inner workings of the home, was exemplary. my mother loved her time at St Breock.
