  • Malden House, Sidmouth
Malden House is a truly elegant country residence that is steeped in period charm yet filled with warmth and understanding. The original house, which dates back to 1820, has been thoughtfully re-designed, and recently extended, incorporating many original features to provide a safe, appealing and comfortable home for its residents.

Located in the picturesque coastal town of Sidmouth in East Devon, Malden House nestles comfortably in the beautiful countryside and lies within a short walk of the sandstone cliffs of the Sid Valley. A fully-trained, compassionate and caring team has created an exceptional residential care home equipped with 29 bedrooms and spaces inside and out to enjoy both companionship and privacy.

Residents can relax in the communal areas, enjoy all inclusive homemade meals in the dining rooms or enjoy the fresh air in the gardens. Video calling is also available to keep up to date with friends and family along with an all inclusive laundry service.

Malden House is a family home created with three underlying values at its core. These are care, comfort and companionship.

Review from Jo E (Wife of Resident) published on 12 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband has been at Malden House since mid-February, discharged there from hospital following a short stay due to a decline in health, including dementia and poor mobility. As he was previously a weekly day care visitor he quickly settled in to a full-time stay, making a good recovery from his poor
health to a level better than in many weeks. His time at Malden gave me a chance to recharge, having been his full-time home carer for 8 years. We've been made so welcome by the kind and friendly staff, the manager and the management team, it's been an immense relief to know he's safe and well looked after. I've enjoyed quality time taking him on outings and visits to the home, we've both enjoyed taking part in activities and feeling part of the Malden community. For personal reasons we're reverting to care at home, but we're pleased to maintain the day care visits and valuable link to Malden, which from the start has made such a positive difference and continues.

Review from Neil A (Son of Resident) published on 11 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum went into Malden House last September, after having looked at four other homes. Though very reluctant at first Mum has settled in well. Thanks to the Manager and the team, she is well looked after and there is always someone around to cater for her needs. Mum suffers with anxiety but since moving
in, this has reduced considerably - I think it's the company of other residents and the security of knowing help is available 24/7. The entire team go about their duties with compassion and empathy and form strong relationships with each other and the residents. For anyone looking for care for a loved one, I would strongly recommend Malden House.
Reply from Lindsay Mahoney, Hospitality & Wellbeing Manager at Malden House

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. It is heart warming to know how the anxiety your mum experiences has lessened since coming to Malden House and no doubt making new friends and the amazing care and support she receives has helped with this. The team at Malden House pride themselves on the family feel around the home and to know that this has not only been noticed but acknowledged will make them very happy. Thank you for choosing Malden House, your kind words will be passed on to the team.

The staff at Malden House are all very friendly and have time for everyone - residents and their families alike. Their obvious compassion towards all residents is very apparent and this is a great comfort to families.


The accommodation is kept very clean and is lovely to visit and spend time in

both communal and private bedroom areas. Also the food, from light snacks to main meals are varied and tasty.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The care that my wife receives is very good. The staff try to keep her engaged in lots of different activities although her condition makes her unable to make sense of many of them. She particularly likes going out in the mini bus visiting various local places. Her home has gone through a big change
over the past year with a doubling of size and of course a number of new care staff. In general this has gone well and the managers have coped well with the difficulties this can bring. I had a few issues with clothing not being sorted properly but when this was brought to the attention of the managers this was quickly addressed.
In general I am very happy that my wife is being looked after carefully and she views the care home as her actual 'Home' now.

My partner and I are eagerly awaiting the birth of our first Grandchild and with that we had to find somewhere to look after my Mother-in-law who lives with us. We wanted somewhere that would look after her as we do. With care and compassion, with friendliness and sensitivity. In the manager and her
team we found that. My Mother-in-law has moderate dementia but other mental health needs and it has taken us a long time to get the right care balance. The manager took on board all of our concerns and came up with a care plan in the home that has kept her happy and safe. Thank you Malden House.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After looking after my cousin for the last six months, I reluctantly decided it was time for her to go into a care home. We lived close to the home for a number of years so it was the first one I tried. They could not have been more helpful and my cousin moved in within a week. Her room is lovely and
the staff could not have been more welcoming. As I have been unwell over the Christmas period I was even sent a photo showing her having a good time. Some other relatives visited this week and they were extremely impressed.

A hidden gem of a care facility on the outskirts of the popular seaside town of Sidmouth. It runs as a well-oiled machine providing exceptional personal care either one-to-one or in a group setting. Obviously the staff have received a high level of training through the guidance of a high-level management
team. Would highly recommend.

We received a very warm welcome when we went to visit Malden House and again when my husband went for a two-week respite break. The staff were very caring and helpful. Communications with the home were excellent - very prompt replies to messages and I felt very informed about how my husband was settling
in. An issue which caused my husband to feel uncomfortable during the early days of his stay was resolved swiftly and satisfactorily.
I was able to have a break from my role as a carer knowing that my husband was in very safe hands and in a very comfortable environment.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.783)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.783) out of 10 for Malden House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.783 for Malden House is calculated as follows: ( (269 Excellents x 5) + (61 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 336 Ratings = 4.783
  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 Malden House is based on 29 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 29 registered maximum number of service users is 5.8, which has been reached with 29 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.

Job Title: Care Home Manager Joined: 2013

I am Tabitha and I am the Registered Manager of our lovely home, Malden House.


Having been a member of the Malden and Hartford Care family for over 10 years, I have had the privilege of supporting the people who live in our home to live their best lives. Our residents are able to choose what they want to do each day and have support to fulfil their wildest dreams and wishes.


It is my passion to ensure everyone who enters our home is having a brilliant day and feels like a true part of our family.


I look forward to seeing you at our wonderful home!

Gabriella

Gabriella Clee

Job Title: Head of Care Joined: 2012

My name is Gabrielle, but better known as Gabby. I have worked in care since 1992 and can honestly say I have enjoyed many parts of this rewarding profession.


I have performed many roles and each one has brought different things to the table. It has meant that I have had the privilege of meeting and caring for so many people from different walks of life, different characters and different concerns.


I have worked at Malden House for thirteen years. I feel honoured that I have reached the point where I can support as Deputy Manager alongside Tabitha our Manager.


We understand what a difficult transition it is for elderly people, some with dementia to move into a care setting but this extends to the families too. We aim to support all.


I feel privileged to work in such a caring home and I feel honoured to share the experiences and lives of our ladies and gentlemen who have done so much for us and even the country as a whole.
