With a devoted manager who has been with the home for over 20 years, and a deputy manager of over 15 years, Pengover is highly respected in the local community.
With just 36 bedrooms, the home has four wings, each with its own cosy lounge, where residents can relax with loved ones, who are welcome at any time and often enjoy taking part in activities with the residents. From animal therapy sessions and baking, to live entertainment from singers and musicians, there’s so much to do.
Outside there are extensive gardens surrounding the home, with wheelchair friendly pathways. Many of the bedrooms have garden views. The back garden is completely enclosed and features planters and raised beds. There is also a vegetable patch where residents enjoy growing their own produce, harvesting it for the chef to use in the kitchen. The team is also planning on creating a mini allotment area ready for the summer.
The local community is embraced into life in the home, including local college students who take part in intergenerational activities. The home also has a ‘Mobii’, where residents can play interactive light games which are projected onto the floor.
There is a spacious central dining room, where the residents enjoy delicious home-cooked meals together, prepared by the home’s chef. From roast dinners with all the trimmings to fish and chip Fridays and home-baking for afternoon tea.
The home also has a hairdressing salon, for regular appointments with a mobile hairdresser who visits weekly. The residents also enjoy pamper sessions, with manicures and hand massages.
Providing residential, dementia, nursing and palliative care, the team at Pengover also offers respite care breaks. These are ideal for family carers who would like to take a break of their own, with the peace of mind of knowing their loved one is in safe hands.
Our weekly fees are individual to each of our residents and are subject to a pre-admission assessment, which is required to understand the level of care and support needed. Our 2025 weekly care fees for residential care start from £1651 and for nursing care £1818, but may be in the region of 30% more*. This depends on your care needs and the type of bedroom that is right for you, from our standard rooms through to our premium bedroom options.
*If you require more specialist care such as 1-2-1 support, your weekly fee could be higher.

Unfortunately this will be my final review on Pengover Care Home as my mother passed away in April after spending three happy years in Pengover. Her care during that time was amazing and I would recommend anyone whose family member needs to go into care that Pengover would be a fantastic place for them. It has always been a pleasure to visit several times a week, which I will miss.
Thank you for sharing such heartfelt feedback. It means so much to know your mother spent three happy years with us. We're grateful you always felt welcome when visiting, and truly appreciate your kind recommendation.
Visiting a friend. I could not fault Pengover and the best care facility I have ever visited. Well done. Staff were superb.

Since the day my mother moved into Pengover, she has had the most wonderful care and treated with the utmost dignity. All the staff are truly kind, considerate and understanding not only to my mother but I have witnessed they are like this with all their residents. The home itself is kept very...
It is very comforting to know that she is getting the best care from some genuinely lovely staff.
Thank you for sharing such lovely feedback. It's wonderful to know your mother feels happy, well cared for and supported, and that the team's kindness and dedication have given you real peace of mind.

As a visitor to my friend and neighbour, who has recently moved into this care home, I have to say that it is an absolute pleasure to go there every week. All the staff who I have met so far have been really lovely, helpful and friendly, and I have been offered a hot drink each time. The whole atmosphere is warm and happy and just feels as if the residents and staff are one big family. My friend has been welcomed and included in all the activities, which she is enjoying. She also enjoys the general comings and goings of everyday life there. I am unable to rate the rooms, food and drink or value for money categories below as of yet, I don't know, but I have no doubt that they would also rate highly. My friend is so much happier now that she is there.

A lovely care home. My mum is superbly cared for. Lots of attention from the staff and they also made me feel very welcome. When I left I felt like I was leaving her actual home.

I stayed at Pengover House, Liskeard for 1 week's respite care. The staff were wonderful. They were very caring and sensitive to my needs; I couldn't have received anything better. The food was excellent, and drinks always available. Pengover House is somewhere I would consider visiting again. It is a very bright and happy place. The staff always have a smile on their faces. Thank you Pengover House.

My sister-in-law was at Pengover for only a short time (palliative care). The nursing care was absolutely top notch - they were absolutely on it when it came to adjusting her syringe driver and deciding on top-up medications as necessary to keep her comfortable in her final days. The whole team were fabulous, very caring and attentive and together they did a wonderful job of looking after her (and us), bless them. Nothing was too much trouble and we really couldn't have asked for better care. They were always smiley and lovely, and made us very welcome (including our dog), night and day . We were so glad she came to Pengover!
Thank you for your kind words. We're truly sorry for your loss, and we're so glad we could support your sister-in-law and your family during such a difficult time. It means a great deal to know our team helped make her final days as comfortable as possible. Your appreciation will be shared with everyone here at Pengover.

My husband has been a resident at Pengover House for the last 8 months. I have always found the staff so obliging and helpful; nothing is too much trouble for them. I feel very comfortable asking any questions concerning my husband's care. The Pengover is spot on with cleanliness and food, which is very good and varied. The staff always keeps me informed of any change in medication or any change in his health. I feel happy to know he is well cared for.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We're delighted to hear that you feel supported and reassured about your husband's care. Your kind words about our staff, cleanliness, and food mean a lot to us. It's a privilege to care for him, and we're grateful for your trust.

I have found the standard of care in Pengover excellent. The home is kept spotlessly clean, the staff are really lovely and there are so many activities laid on for residents. There are fall alarms in each room and the staff always attend to these promptly when triggered (even if only by my dogs who are always welcome which is a great comfort to my mother). I know I can rest assured that she will always be looked after properly and genuinely respected and cherished by this amazing team! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

My brother has been in Pengover for just over 8 weeks. He has settled in and is happy there. The staff are very good and friendly. I've had lunch with him and the food is very good. My brother has made friends with a few of the residents and also participates in the arts and crafts sessions which he has never done before. I would recommend Pengover to anyone.

Mum went into Pengover House in August 2019, originally for respite, but was so settled from day one that it was in her best interests to stay after my father passing away. During COVID and with the block on visiting my mum's dementia deteriorated at a noticeable rate, due mainly to the lack of interaction from family. From the first day we were welcomed as part of the great big Pengover family. Mum was always treated with dignity and care. Staff have come and gone and with every new face comes an input of energy and enthusiasm. The staff have always been very approachable, understanding and compassionate to her needs. Before my mum passed away, care staff, domestic and laundry staff would sit with her often singing and chatting away so that she wasn’t on her own. This goes above and beyond and is the true meaning of teamwork. The staff do a wonderful job. The only negative is that there is no reception desk at the entrance and are left standing at the door as care staff too busy.
Mom has settled very quickly at Pengover House. This is due to the staff's kindness, patience and welcoming approach whilst maintaining a professional manner. We see this all the time on our daily visits to Mom. The staff also provide a safe and happy environment. This all gives us the peace of...

My wife is very well supported and treated with dignity and has been ever since she joined the care home. The staff who look after her are magnificent in their attention to detail and also in their reporting of her condition. I have absolute praise for the way in which the staff behave towards my dear wife and would not wish her to be anywhere else. The facilities are extremely good. The place is immaculately clean. The food and drink are supplied by the chef and other members of staff. And it is very high in its quality. The safety and security of the home is immaculate. The staff and management are extremely committed and their experience is without a doubt very far advanced. The room which she is in is always neat and tidy. The activities do occur, but I wish there were more of them. And if this could be part of the ongoing program. there has been a gap in the activities role because of staff illness and I hope that this will be remedied soon.
All night...

I started my journey in 2002 working at Pengover as a care assistant then progressing to senior care assistant after completing my degree in Psychology.
As I grew into my role an opportunity to become a Deputy Manager came up and I was fortunate to apply and was successful. I worked closely with the Manager, learning more skills to ensure that Pengover, the clients, staff and family members felt valued and respected.
I remained in the role of Deputy for five years, during this time I completed my Operations Departmental Management CMI level 5. This opportunity gave me insight not only into myself but also into Management style and leadership styles.
In 2022 I applied for and was successful in the role of registered Manager. I continue to learn, I feel that learning and evolving are never-ending.
I am passionate about Pengover, the clients we care for, the staff we support and the families that visit their loved ones.
I believe that Pengover is a home, not only for the clients we care for but also forstaff, family members and visitors.
