Bishopsteignton House

A lovely welcoming environment and staff. They have really looked after my father after his discharge from hospital and greatly helped his recovery. Nothing has been too much trouble even though his health was worse than they had expected.

Bishopsteignton House is a very good care home and clean and staff are very caring and night staff. They looked after Dad wonderfully and I can't fault them. 100%.

My mother has been in the home for six months now and has settled really well. The home is full of light and always lovely flowers and happy people. It is easy to visit and feel welcome anytime. My mother loves the staff and food. All the staff are friendly and have time to chat if needed. It is a very homely feel. Meal times, everybody sits together and has lovely serviettes and flowers on the tables. Mum has been out late a few times and the night staff are wonderful and happy to make her a drink if she is not ready for bed. I feel she is very safe and surrounded by love.

I’m very happy with the way my mother is looked after, and I’m always welcomed by the staff. Mum has been at Bishopsteignton House for nearly three years, and she is always pleased to see me. It is great for my brother and my sisters to know Mum is happy and well looked after.

The staff are really kind and easy to talk to.

My mum has been staying here for respite. What a lovely friendly place, the staff are brilliant and a particular member of staff goes that extra mile.

Bishopsteignton House was like home from home. As soon as we entered the building we knew it was the right place for my dad. My dad has strived from strength to strength. He has found a whole new lease of life. The manager and her team went really above and beyond to meet our family's needs.

My husband and I have been here for some months. Sadly, my husband died and I am still here. The carers and other staff have been so kind and generous with the care they showed him and he always so appreciated what they did for him and for myself also. At any time of the day, there was always help and care. Everything was always spotless. Our rooms were always clean and comfortable and certainly warm. No one could have cared for my husband and me as these carers have done. Always cheerful even though they were tired. The food here was great and always hot, we enjoyed it all. We also had lovely grounds and views which was relaxing and a pleasure to be in.

My mother has lived at Bishopsteignton House Care Home for approximately one and a half years and I have noticed a marked improvement in her health and well-being over that time. She is very happy at Bishopsteignton House and has settled in well. Part of the appeal of the home is the small size - there are only about thirty residents at any one time which makes the place feel like a big family rather than a faceless institution. The staff are amazing and seem to have a genuine affection for the residents. Nothing is too much trouble and a sense of happiness pervades the house. The gardens and wonderful views are a bonus! My mother and I are both so pleased that she was able to get a place at Bishopsteignton House and couldn't think of a better place.

All the staff are very helpful and accommodating. We thoroughly enjoyed the lunches when visiting. Very tasty.

Overall very good - no complaints except for clothes mixed up in the laundry service (ie I get someone else's items).

I have found Bishopsteignton House generally a happy and kind place to live in. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The members of staff are very kind and provide good service. Nothing appears to be too much trouble.

My friend has had a spell of respite care here at Bishopsteignton House. She has flourished and is now back to her old self. As a close friend, this is so amazing to see her so happy and confident. The staff are amazing and go above and beyond!

The rooms and surroundings are exceptionally clean and tidy, and according to my auntie, she cannot fault the food in any way.

I have been a resident here for nearly six months. In that time my health, well-being but mainly my self-esteem has been given back to me. Bishopsteignton House Care Home is one of, if not, the finest residential care homes I have had the pleasure of knowing (and the last six months living in). The carers are the most wonderful, compassionate, hardworking people I have ever come across. We have lots of laughs and it is part of a big family. The catering is excellent and the two chefs are very accommodating regarding dietary needs, bravo!

My overall experience with the staff and organisation of Bishopsteignton House has been of a team of patient and caring people who, despite the publicity surrounding the care sector generally, seem to evince a level of interest and dedication beyond what one could confidently expect. Not all the residents are respectful of their situation and demonstrate a level of awkwardness that must sometimes be difficult to tolerate but I have never seen or heard anything other than patience and understanding from the staff members.

I know my grandma is being well looked after.

Bishopsteignton House is a beautiful building with stunning views. The care that my sister receives is excellent. The staff, from the manager to the cleaners are excellent, so kind and caring. My sister always looks well and happy. The staff are doing a great job.

At this frightening time, I would like to say how well the staff at Bishopsteignton House have coped. They have gone above and beyond in keeping their residents safe. My friend has been a resident there for a few years and always appears happy and well when I visit; at this time when I can only phone.

My Mum came to Bishopsteignton house in June, she has been very happy here, staff are really helpful and kind, with COVID they have been very helpful in taking Mum in her wheelchair so we are able to see her, and on her 97th birthday they went all out and put table and chairs outside of her window for us all to visit her, they made lovely sandwiches cake and pots of tea, Mum loved it, amazing care, Thank you all from us girls.
