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.

The home is very good, nice staff, the staff answer the bell quickly. The room I'm in is spacious, I tell people that visit that this is my home now. I have a small appetite, the food is lovely, especially the pasta.

I have been visiting Pengover House for many years taking a short service of Holy Communion. In my last visit I found the staff helpful, courteous and they also showed helpful, kind care to the residents promptly meeting needs i.e. toilet requests! They are redecorating the main dining area at present but the workmen kept the disturbance to a minimum and gave the residents a new interest! The general atmosphere and ambience is good and the place clean and comfortable. The staff are helpful and give much individual care to residents as needed. I would be happy to be a resident there!

It is a care home that really cares.
On the occasions I visit my friend, I always find my welcome very warm and friendly. The staff always make sure I'm offered a tea or coffee. They go out of their way to help in anyway they can.

Very caring staff, very well laid out space. Lovely bedroom looking out on to a pretty garden. I'm confident that my mum will be well looked after.

Dad was admitted to Pengover straight from hospital as there was a bed available there at the time. We live in Par (17 miles and around half an hour drive away) and although various healthcare professionals, from other agencies we met over the first few weeks were concerned of the travel time for us, we would not dream of dad being looked after anywhere else. Myself and mum had visited a local care home just before dad was due to be discharged from hospital and refused to let him go there. We hadn't heard of Pengover House before as it isn't local to us. Boy, did we get the 1st prize!
Anyone that knows me will understand that to sing praises like I do for Pengover must mean that it is particularly special.
The staff, without exception, are very friendly towards both residents and their visitors. Residents are looked after with care, dignity and patience and staff keep a careful eye on them to ensure that they are fed, watered and receive medical attention when needed (all very well documented). On my last visit one member of the care team said that she was on duty when one of the residents was in his last hours of life. She said "I couldn't just go home, I wanted to sit with him until the end". This is really going the extra mile and illustrates the level of care and compassion given by these special people.
If you are considering placing a member of your family here...don't hesitate, just do it and you will be very pleased you did.

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.
