  • Bluebell House Care Home, Bideford
Bluebell House Care Home is one of a group of ten Residential Care Homes owned and operated by the Stonehaven (Healthcare) Group in Devon and Cornwall. As with all homes in the group each Resident enjoys a very high standard of care in a 'home and family' focused environment.

Bluebell House offers 25 bedrooms (mostly single) where elderly people, elderly people with physical disability and elderly people with dementia, are expertly cared for.

There is a dedicated and highly trained Care Team whose compassion and skill make Donnington House a real HOME where frequent recommendation and positive feedback are regularly enjoyed.

Carers understand that for many the prospect of a move to a Residential Home can be a daunting one. To help dispel any concerns, carers offer free a 'Familiarisation Day' to prospective residents (so long as capacity allows) - where a prospective resident may spend a day at the home with a family member or friend.

It is the desire to ensure that all who come into contact with Bluebell House leave with an overwhelmingly positive impression of the home.

Come along and see for yourselves. You will always be most welcome.

Review from Samantha M (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mum was referred to Bluebell House after recurrent hospital stays as her Alzheimer's Disease worsened, as It became increasingly difficult to manage her care needs at home by my 88 year old Dad, even with our support. Although It was upsetting for us to start with, accepting that her needs were too
challenging for my Dad to cope with, my Mum has settled in. She has a nice cozy room, and is taken care of by very caring members of staff. The food is hearty home cooked food..all the usual favourites! Fish and chips on a Friday! Always a pudding too. The staff make my Dad and I very welcome, we are always offered a hot drink or a cake too. We have made an effort to get to know everyone too. Mum always looks well presented, and has her nails done too! (Thank you!) I wanted to also mention Georgie who is in charge of activities, who is so kind and encouraging with my Mum, as are all the staff. They are very friendly and kind which is so important, and work very hard.

I recently visited my mum with my brother last week and thought how lovely it was to see all the artwork displayed a round her day room that the residents had been involved with.
It was a sea theme. We could see how much time and effort have been put into these wonderful creations.
We also visited
on Bluebell house family day.
And it was lovely to hear the residence choir singing.
We could see a lot of hard work had gone into this wonderful day.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We placed Dad at Bluebell after a diagnosis of Alzheimer's and he needed 24 hour care after various hospital stays for falls and illnesses, and he has been there a year now. Despite his decline he seems very content there and has a lovely room with fantastic sea views. The staff are wonderful & I can't
praise them all enough! They gently encourage him to engage in activities and he is very much cared for in a kind and empathic way. He has made some friends & says he is looked after well (he thinks he is staying at a hotel!) he really enjoys the activities and loves the food!
After feeling so guilty at placing him we soon realised he was in the best place for him to be well taken care of, and we highly recommend Bluebell if you are in the same position as we were.
Thank you to all the Carers, management, cleaners and other staff there who are helping make dads final years the best they can be.

For the third year running Bluebell House held its family day last Saturday 28th June. What a great event! The range of activities, events and entertainment on the day were exceptional and the day was so enjoyed by the residents and their families and friends. The hard work both in the preparation
and planning and on the day by the staff was phenomenal and a heartfelt thank you does not seem enough for the gratitude felt by those attending

Thank you Bluebell for an amazing day yesterday. A very well organised event which everyone enjoyed. In particular I would like to thank the Activities Manager and the team for working with Mum over the past few months to give her the confidence to sing a solo song. A truly special moment. Singing
has also given Mum the confidence to join in other activities too. I'm always made to feel welcome at Bluebell and Mum is very happy and settled there. Thank you for all that you do.

Mum has been at Bluebell House for three years this September, and in that time the care has always been extremely good. The staff show endless patience and care, even when mum is being uncooperative. There are plenty of opporttunities for her to participate in numerous activities, some of which mum
enjoys! Mum's dementia is advancing but she is obviously happy and settled, and I am always grateful for the care and support that everyone at Bluebell House gives to mum and to me.

We are pleased with the care my grandma has received during her time at Bluebell House Care Home. The staff are always very attentive to her needs and she feels safe and secure there.

Dad was placed into Bluebell House Care Home following a hospital admission.
After much soul searching, as a family, we decided it was in Dad's best interest to remain as a resident at Bluebell, self-funding (whilst he can).
I'm very happy to report we made the right decision, Dad is thriving.
Thanks
to the activities coordinator, Dad is happily involved in all things sociable, especially the choir where you would have found him proudly taking lead vocals at the family fun day.
I would also like to give a shoutout to the manager who I find to be very personable, approachable and efficient.
I would like to give a thank you to all carers, cleaners, cooks the odd-job man who Dad seems to have taken a shine to.
I pray Dad can continue going from strength to strength in your care.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
We very much enjoyed attending the Family Fun Day. It was lovely to celebrate the 100th birthday of one of the residents. We appreciated the thought and care that had been put into making it a memorable day for him. As family, we are heartened to see how much my mother-in-law enjoyed the programme of
events - especially the musical items.
A big thank you to one particular member of staff who organised the Fun Day and all those who ably supported her in putting on the day. It was indeed fun!
We have also appreciated the patient way my mother-in-law is gently encouraged to engage with other residents through the activities put on week by week. A big highlight earlier this year has been the change of room so that she now has a glorious view of the sea and coast that she loves and knows so well. It is also noticeable on recent trips that the intrusive sound of the call alarms seems to have been reduced, making for a calmer atmosphere in the home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff are very friendly. My dad has been with them 2 years now. The food has got much better, as my dad does like his food.
He has a room with a view to the sea and enjoys sitting looking out. He provides the quizzes when asked for the residents, although does find it hard to write now. Due to
his spinal condition he finds it uncomfortable spending time in the lounge therefore does not meet as many people as he wishes. It is a shame there are a lack of volunteer people who come round and spend time with the residents as stimulation is a real must and the staff don't have the time, although they are excellent, they have all the residents to care for. It is a very caring home.

I have always been very happy with the care provided by Bluebell for the resident and so has he.
I am also very pleased with the improvements that have been made recently both inside of the home
and outside in the gardens.
Also it is great that the annual fun day this year is centred on his 100th
year and he is very pleased to know that his life is being highlighted and celebrated - thank you to one member of staff in particular for your efforts!
He has been with Bluebell now for nearly 6 years and has been very happy and content.

Mum continues to go from strength to strength with the care and support of the team at Bluebell House. There is always something happening and one staff member in particular works tirelessly to ensure all residents are involved in activities that bring joy and purpose to their days. In addition, another

My mother has been a resident at Bluebell for several years now. The team are exceptional- so dedicated and caring. There is a wide range of activities for residents to get involved with, and there are trips out, most recently a drive around the local area to enjoy the pretty Christmas lights. The manager
is very effective, and if I have concerns, they are addressed very speedily. Better food would be a major step.

Review from Vaughan T (Son of Resident) published on 1 November 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
Most staff are caring and helpful, however, there are issues that are disappointing.
Mum pays c£1500 per week privately, serious mobility issues, we have been told she has dementia and is very confused and has entered EOL Phase. She has to privately fund her own wheelchair £25/wk, which is disappointing.
She has contracted several contagious illnesses and been hospitalised twice, once with pneumonia, during her 2 years at Bluebell. A staff member advised they have to work when they are sick as they otherwise don't get paid, which seems outrageous in a care home environment.
I am 3 hours away and it is difficult for me to visit, but I try to call most days. I estimate that 2 of 3 attempts to call the phone is not answered (50% during the week, 75% at weekends). It is frustrating as, when I do get through, Mum is often asleep, given her condition, so there are few chances to speak. She says she is very lonely, I think she receives personal care, food, but would benefit from more company.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.667)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.667) out of 10 for Bluebell House Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.667 for Bluebell House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (158 Excellents x 5) + (28 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 201 Ratings = 4.667
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bluebell House Care Home is based on 16 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2, which has been reached with 16 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
