Review from Sue S (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 May 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
What a welcoming home, the staff are just lovely, it feels like a family! The Senior Carer was just brilliant and reassuring and clearly knows her job well. My two questions were answered and actioned straight away, and as this was my first visit to see mum (new resident) I left feeling confident she
was in excellent hands! Thank you all Team Barton House, you should all be very proud.
Reply from Sally Child, Director at Barton House

Thank you for your kind words, with praise for the staff. We are very proud of all our team members and they all have a passion for their work, which also comes down from the hands on management team.

Review from Ashley M (Son of Resident) published on 28 September 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father spent the last year of his life at Barton House. He was very happy there and had a great rapport with the carers. He had a lovely room which Barton had decorated for him. His room had great internet connection which was invaluable for him to watch his sport and listen to his 'virtual assistant'.
I would turn up at any time to visit and dad was always washed, dressed and clearly well cared for. Any issues that were raised were dealt with in a professional and prompt manner.
At the end, he returned from hospital after a short illness to spend his last days back "home." The care my father received during those last few days was beyond professional. It was as if the carers were looking after their own relative, from which I took huge comfort. He was treated with such dignity and I could not have asked for more. They really were his angels.

Review from Sheila M (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 February 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was a resident at Barton House for about 18 months and was happy and settled there. I was not living locally, but visited weekly, always unannounced, and felt that nothing was lacking. At all times I felt that my mother was extremely well cared for, treated with respect and I was extremely
satisfied with the professional but friendly care that she received. The care home has a homely atmosphere and the staff, although busy, always have time for informal chats with the residents. When my mother was taken to hospital suddenly, shortly before she passed away, a member of staff accompanied her and stayed with her, for which I was very grateful.
A thoroughly excellent care home.

Review from Philippa N (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 26 January 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My grandmother was a resident of Barton House until she passed away in May 2015. As I live a long distance away it was difficult to visit her very often, but every time I did visit she seemed very happy in her 'flat' as she called her room.


As my grandmother was taken very unwell suddenly it was

decided due to her great age and because of familiar surroundings that she would stay at Barton House until she passed away, during this time I stayed with my mother for 3 days, and I noted the care and compassion from all the staff to be very good, both to her and myself and mother, and my uncle.


Whilst we had to travel from a distance when she first became very unwell a member of staff stayed with my grandmother in her own time until we got there, this is something that I shall never forget, and it was a comforting thought to us that she had someone with her at all times.

Review from Diana S (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 December 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mother passed away in Barton House in May where she had lived for several years. (Prior to living there, she lived in the 'sister ' home of 'Barton Lodge.)
Although registered blind and with advancing dementia, the patience, understanding, respect and personal care that was given to her by all
staff, was magnificent.
She was very happy living there, and the relief for us as a family, to know that she was safe and being so well looked after, was enormous. I often visited unannounced and always found her clean and well looked after. Her care plan was discussed with me and so when her passing came, it was with dignity.
I cannot speak highly enough of the wonderful 'Barton House' in Dawlish!

Current Review Score: 8.0 (7.969)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.0 (7.969) out of 10 for Barton House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.3 out of 5 from 1 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.636 for Barton House is calculated as follows: ( (8 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 11 Ratings = 4.636
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 3.333 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barton House is based on 1 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 = 3
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 15 registered maximum number of service users is 3. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 3 = 0.333
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
