Margaret. Thank you so much for your kind words about our Care Team at Cross Park House in Brixham. It's always really lovely to see our homes described as 'home from home' and our care teams recognised in this way. I have to say, I visited Cross Park just yesterday, and it was lovely - so much chatter - a bright and lively place to be. Thank you again for your kind words and I'm really happy that you're happy. Kindest regards, Nathan.
After another 12 months of staff and management shortages, I'm very happy to say the home has finally settled into a happy, welcoming home. The new stand in manager (hoping Stone Haven recognise the difference she's made so that she stays permanently) has improved standards dramatically making it a...
I would like to see a refurbishment on the toilets and outside space so it can be used more in the summer.
Please keep this up.

Good afternoon TL. Thank you for this detailed feedback. I agree, we have been through a tough 12 months at Cross Park with some management and care team changes. We're really pleased with the way in which the current care team at Cross Park and our wider company support office team have all worked together to bring about the necessary changes and improvements. I was at Cross Park only yesterday and had some fantastic conversions with the care team who were all busily and enthusiastically going about their day ensuring that the residents in their care were happy and well cared for. I'm not sure I agree that we have staff shortages. We have agreements with two main agencies to ensure that we always have enough care team members on duty. I met one of our regular agency ladies yesterday and she was, as you say, lovely. My impression of the outdoor space is that it is lovely - not sure what else it needs. We have an ongoing programme of maintenance and improvements. Kindest regards, Nathan

My wife has vascular dementia and went from stage 5 to 6 in May 2024 when her attention span deteriorated and I could not leave her alone. I knew after six months I was unable to give her the necessary care and she entered Cross Park November 2024.
I visit for a couple of hours four times a week and talk to the carers about her condition, because the doctors at Compass will not speak to me for confidentiality reasons, even though we have been married nearly 45 years.The carers have been wonderful and I'll include the agency staff, such as Ocean, who know Jean well and we do have some moments that you have to laugh or you would cry. Over the last 18 months I have got to know the staff and other residents well and chat to them.
She has since moved, last May from stage 6-7 and is mainly in her room. I like to give her evening meal and it allows the carers to feed someone else.
I would recommend Cross Park house to any family with someone suffering from dementia.

My Mum has Alzheimer's and as a family we were searching for a suitable care home that was appropriate for her condition. We found Cross Park early 2026. Since day 1 we have found the environment friendly welcoming and caring. We understand that Alzheimer's can cause difficulties for all concerned....
My mum has occasionally had visitors from the Midlands where she previously lived. Every visitor has noted that Mum appears calm and settled and have commented on the helpfulness of all the staff. Please keep up the good work Helen and congratulate the staff for a great review.

Good afternoon AB. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this lovely 5 / 5 star review of your experience with our Care Team and Care Home at Cross Park House in Brixham, Devon. It's lovely to read how calm and settled your mum is and how you have been impressed with the attitude and professionalism of all of the team at Cross Park House. Reviews such as this perform a really important role in helping others to research care homes whilst also providing fantastic and motivating recognition for the care teams working in those homes. Thank you again. Kindest regards, Nathan.
Lovely warm welcome from staff. Cross Park feels like "home" not a home. Residents all encouraged to be part of the community & are treated with care & respect. Mum is so lucky to have a place here. The activities are brilliant.

Good afternoon Pamela. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this review of your experience living at Cross Park. It's lovely to read that you are happy at Cross Park House and would not want to leave as you get looked after very well and like the staff. Yes, Cross Park is a converted domestic house so rooms are not built to modern size and shape but, as you say, they are more 'cosy' and homely as a result. It's lovely to read that your friends and family who visit are always well looked after and say how nice and friendly the staff and management are. I note the lower score for activities - whilst the team have been doing their best to compensate we have been without a dedicated activities coordinator for about 6 weeks now - we are actively recruiting and eager to see a full and engaging activities calendar re-established at Cross Park. Thank you again for your kind words, Nathan.
Very informative, happy with the things discussed today with Kiera and the reassurance she gave for care for my mum.

After looking at several homes in the area; the manager and her staff at Cross Park gave us the warmest, friendliest welcome, the atmosphere was like home from home. The environment was clean, lovely decor and facilities very good. The excellent staff so kind and caring, the food was good with the chef checking daily on choice. My mother had two weeks respite care and as a family we felt confident leaving her with the wonderful team. We will certainly make further stays and highly recommend Cross Park to others.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this really lovely and detailed 5 / 5 star review of your experience with our Care Home and Care Team at Cross Park House in Brixham, Devon. It's always lovely to have our homes described as 'like home from home' as that's exactly what we are looking to achieve. We have worked very hard to recruit and develop a really dedicated care team at Cross Park House, and it's lovely to read your feedback where you have described them as excellent, kind and caring and a 'wonderful team'. Most of all, it's lovely to read that you mum had a great stay with us. Thank you again for this kind feedback.
Overall, we are pleased with the care & support given to my mother. The staff could not do more or be friendlier to family & friends.

Overall, we are pleased with the care & support given to my mother. The staff could not do more or be friendlier to family & friends. The new manager has been excellent, but we are saddened & concerned she is leaving already. In the year my mother has been here, there have been 3 deputy managers, 2 managers and other staff changes. The residents & their families need continuity & familiar faces. Also, the promised mini-bus shopping trips/excursions have never happened, which is a great shame.
Thank you for this feedback - it's great that you are pleased with the care and support that our team at Cross Park have given to your mum.

Thank you for this feedback - it's great that you are pleased with the care and support that our team at Cross Park have given to your mum. Yes, it is a shame that she is leaving - she is moving to our St. Petrocs Care Home in Bodmin as it is closer to her home. Shas really enjoyed working at Cross Park and is taking an active role in helping us to recruit her replacement - we expect to be offering the position soon to another exceptional candidate. Team members do come and go - our goal (and we're pretty good at it) is to ensure that quality of care remains consistently high - no matter who is delivering it. Whilst we do have a full activities schedule at Cross Park - and an excellent activities co-ordinator - you are, of course, correct, we've not been able to put on any trips in the mini-bus for some time. We have struggled to find a driver for the bus. This is something that we are aware of and do wish to resolve. Kindest regards.
Staff are lovely, friendly, helpful and always smiling.
Dad always treated with dignity.
Family when visiting, are always treated with respect & welcomed usually with a cup of tea.
Would highly recommend the care received of an excellent standard.

Cross Park House is spacious and beautifully decorated for different occasions. I appreciate the coffee the staff give me when I visit. It is not too formal. My 4 grandchildren arrived without warning just when Christmas lunch was being served. We all sat in my husband's room and helped him eat it which he loved. Individual birthdays are remembered. The staff do a reliable and difficult job caring for people who are physically or mentally ill - who are not always polite. Very tiring. Care homes and their staff are not appreciated or helped by the government. They should be.
Thank you for your kind words. We aim to encourage families to visit their loved ones as much as possible and make it an enjoyable experience. We have a great team and i will be sure to pass on your kind words to the team.
I am very happy with the care my mum has received at Cross Park House. The place is homely. There are activities - particularly music which my mum loves, but in particular the staff are lovely, wonderful and caring people.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this really positive (and really honest) review of your experience with our Care Team and Care Home at Cross Park House in Brixham, Devon. Thank you for highlighting the skilled work and dedication of our care team members - I've often experienced our care team members interacting with confused and perhaps upset residents and the empathy and understanding they show, and the skill with which they handle the situation, is often inspiring. It's lovely to read that your Dad is now settled and happy. Thank you again for this really kind, and really useful, feedback. Kindest regards.

My dad went into Cross Park for one month of respite care and has been welcomed to stay longer if he needs it. The home itself is lovely and the staff are really helpful to me and my brother. Caring is very good, nothing is too much trouble and they accommodate all our needs and requests. All of the residents looked really happy and Dad settled in with ease. I'd recommend Cross Park and hope that should we continue to need them, Dad will stay!

When deciding on a care home for my nan in March 2022, I viewed some more modern homes. However, at Cross Park, it was clear that they encouraged residents into the common areas and to engage in a range of activities. The garden and dining room are lovely. As it is my nan prefers to remain in her room and is very set in her ways but many of the staff engage with her from the cleaners to the laundry lady. She is always clean and tidy and the staff try to encourage her to drink more. I know she is well looked after and cared for which gives me peace of mind. Her room looks out onto the road where I live so it's an added bonus that she is so close. I am welcomed whenever I visit and the staff have been kind to me and my nan as we've been dealing with my dad's ill health and his subsequent passing. Thanks for taking good care of my nan.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. I will be sure to pass it on to the team at Cross Park House.
Lovely staff, a good standard of hygiene. Dad is well looked after.
