Bishopsteignton House

My husband has recently come home from a two-week respite period at Bishopsteignton House. This was a new experience for both of us, but the kindness, care and support we received helped us through some difficult moments and meant so much to us. We are so grateful to Donna, Amy and the team for all their efforts and dedication through this period and in the support given as John transitioned back home and onto a day care plan at Bishopsteignton House

My mum recently went to Bishopsteignton house, we are absolutely thrilled with the home. The kind of care, the staff, the building everything is superb. We could not be more happy!

Cannot recommend highly enough.

My Mum has been at Bishopsteignton House for 6 months & the care has been amazing. Donna, Amy & the staff are wonderful. Mum feels safe & cared for. She has severe aphasia & they take the time to listen to her and understand her. I would highly recommend Bishopsteignton House for anbody's loved one

Thank you & keep up the good work.

As a wise old man once said "they are Top Nochers"!

I can't recommend this home and the staff enough. Thank you so much.

Dad came to Bishopsteignton House 5 years ago, and I can honestly say it gave him a new lease of life. He was beautifully looked after and cared for with real love and warmth, and it was wonderful to see him flourishing in an environment where he was genuinely appreciated. He was able to take part in so many different activities and outings, and the team are endlessly resourceful and creative in what they provide for residents. The house itself is beautiful, the facilities top-notch, and Dad was a very big fan of the delicious food! At the time it felt like an enormous and risky decision to move him down here from East Anglia where he had lived all his life, but we were so lucky to find Bishopsteignton House, and are grateful every day for the way they welcomed Dad into their community and looked after him. Enormous thanks to the whole team for everything they did for him, and for us as a family.

My father in law has been living at Bishopsteignton house for just over a year, unfortunately he has just passed away, my wife and I couldn't have asked for a better home to take care of him in this last year, Donna and her team are such wonderful caring people

My sister-in-law has been living at Bishopsteignton House for the past 2years and 6 months. I can honestly say, my partner and I are more than happy at the the quality if care that my sister-in-law receives. My sister-in-law can be very difficult at times, but the staff are so patient with her and understanding Both my partner and I are Power of Attorney for my sister-in-law's Health and Financial matters. They always keep us informed all my sister-in-law's updates. We are very impressed with Bishopsteignton House. Thank you to the manager and all the staff.

Mum moved in here 2 months ago. When I arrived to look round, someone else's son arrived very soon after. He went out of his way to tell me that his Mum came for respite care 6 months before, and liked it so much she was now a permanent resident. Last time I visited Mum, this week, likewise I said to someone looking round that they could find nowhere better for their relation. It is wonderful. I felt very conflicted about "putting Mum in a home" but this really is a home where you are cared for. She is so much happier here than when living with us. The building is great - so easy for the residents to socialise. The restaurant is just that. It is not a canteen! The home is south facing with views to the River Teign estuary. The food is good. Best, the staff are superb, kind patient and caring. There are lots of activities - something every day. This is not warehousing people but a place of genuine happiness. Facebook updates are great and frequent. I cannot recommend highly enough!

My mother passed away at the home very recently after living there for 2 years. I couldn't think of a nicer place for her to spend her last days. The care from the staff was exceptional at all times. Everyone who came in contact with her and the family was caring and considerate. I can't thank them enough.

Wonderful home, very clean and tidy. Dad was very well looked after by the amazing and very caring staff. The food was to a very high standard with lots of choice. Lot's of different activities to choose from if dad wanted to be involved. Management was always on hand if I had any questions.

Management is very supportive and always there to help.

My nan is a resident at Bishopsteignton House. The first impression I got when she first moved in was how clean the home was and how welcoming everyone is. I can't thank the manager and deputy manager for making my nan feel so welcome. The room she has is modern and clean. We have been able to make her room feel her home. The food is brilliant and always has a selection of foods available and nothing is too much trouble for the kitchen. My nan enjoys the wide range of activities which are on offer and they are always willing to try new ideas.

First impressions of the care home from the outside are good with a view across the Teign river from a lovely garden. The inside is welcoming and spacious with a friendly atmosphere. Staff are nearby and within sight so they help residents quickly and answer questions from visitors. Activities are varied, including crafts, singing and dog visits. Care needs are reviewed monthly and delivered by staff with genuine loving care. I always felt my aunt was in good hands and wish she could have gone there sooner.

I can take him to Bishopsteignton House and I know he's made to feel very welcome by the staff.

P.S. I wish my own home is as clean and tidy as Bishopsteignton House.

My grandad has settled in so quickly into Bishopsteignton House and all the staff have been amazing. In the short space of time he has been there, everyone has made him feel so welcome and he seems extremely comfortable. The amount of interaction he has with daily activities is fantastic and nothing is too much trouble. We are so happy with everything and can't thank the team enough.

Bishopsteighton House is a home away from home, dad is very happy here. All the staff are so lovely, nothing is too much trouble. Dad's room is light and airy and very spacious and newly decorated. He is checked on regularly and encouraged to join others in communal areas. I couldn't be happier to know he is in safe hands.
