The level of care my husband received during the month spent at Harbour Rise was of the highest order. The patience of the staff towards very difficult and vulnerable people was very impressive. The management were knowledgeable and efficient and responded promptly to all requests.

Since last September, this has been my home. I have Parkinson's and needed to be looked after. I am extremely happy here. All the staff are so helpful and kind. The food is excellent with a good choice. We get entertainment a couple of times a week and some of us get taken out on trips, if we are able to move a little. The home is cosy and bright and I would recommend it to anyone.
But my overall my opinion is of a high standard, well organised accommodation.

I can't say fairer than this if I personally need care in the future, Harbour Rise is the home I would want to be admitted to.

My mother became a full-time resident at the end of May, prior to two day's care, I cannot rate this home enough, from management to cleaners, it is a pleasure to visit. Everyone is so friendly. They take the more able out in the mini-bus, which they love. They have just had a summer fayre which was attended by many families catering for all ages. My mother is looking so much better and loves being in the home.
This care home is absolutely fantastic, clean with happy residents. The staff are always happy and most caring: they really seem to enjoy working there. Visitors are made most welcome and usually offered tea or coffee and quite often cake can be found after lunch time. My elderly neighbour who...
This care home is absolutely fantastic, clean with happy residents. The staff are always happy and most caring: they really seem to enjoy working there. Visitors are made most welcome and usually offered tea or coffee and quite often cake can be found after lunch time. My elderly neighbour who suffers from dementia is truly happy there and has not got a bad thing to say about the place - and neither have I.
Harbour Rise is a lovely clean home and the staff are friendly and treat the residents with respect. Mum has dementia and was quite frail when she went into Harbour Rise in November 2018 since then I have seen such improvement not just in mum's health but now she is happy and call Harbour Rise...
Harbour Rise is a lovely clean home and the staff are friendly and treat the residents with respect. Mum has dementia and was quite frail when she went into Harbour Rise in November 2018 since then I have seen such improvement not just in mum's health but now she is happy and call Harbour Rise "home". It is reassuring to know that mum is now safe and well cared for.
As soon as we visited Harbour Rise (2014) we felt optimistic. The manager was so helpful and welcoming and as well as answering all our queries it was obvious that he cared about the home. The rooms were...
Everything else is a bonus but these aspects were evident whenever we visited. My husband and I live a considerable distance away and I can't overstate how reassuring this was.
My mother, who has memory loss but is otherwise still lively and active, has now been at Harbour Rise for a few weeks, and has settled in well. The team - staff and management - have encouraged her in socialising with team members and the other more active residents, and helped her well in coping...
My mother was ill over Christmas, with a nasty chest infection. A doctor (from the same practice that mother had been with before she moved to the home) came promptly, and the extra care that the staff gave at a very busy time was excellent and much appreciated.
While my mother was in Harbour Rise she was treated with dignity and respect by a caring and helpful staff. The home is clean and well maintained and run by a friendly staff that go out of their way to help the families as well as the individuals in their care.

Can't fault their care and thought they give the people in their home. Every thought is given to make their stay full and as meaningful as is possible.

Harbour Rise has recently been refurbished to a high standard. The home has all the facilities that my Mum requires. In the short time she has been there she has enjoyed the outings and entertainment tha the management has laid on. I find the staff polite, friendly and always willing to help. There is a good choice of menu that caters for the residents and family. Tea an dcoffee arealways vailable. The grounds are mainly laid to lawn with various seating areas, some of which have sea views which the residents enjoy in the summer. Many thanks to the owners.
Excellent facilities. Very helpful and caring staff. The team made a conscious effort to provide interesting and varied activities for the residents.

Harbour Rise is a beacon of light within Torbay. It's a shining example of how care homes should be run both here and in the UK. The staff are engaging and the management supportive.

My Father was an emergency placement at Harbour Rise, I noticed a difference in my Father’s demeanour immediately, he was a lot happier in himself, he had regular good food, he was looked after so well that we, his family, felt we could finally relax knowing that his every need was catered...

Hello, I’m Julia! I joined Harbour Rise in August 2021, having previously managed an Outstanding-rated homecare company and then transitioning to managing Residential Care several years ago. I’m dedicated to providing high-quality care and enjoy taking a proactive approach in my work. I love spending time with the wonderful people at Harbour Rise, listening to their stories, and ensuring that their care aligns with their wishes and what matters most to them. Originally from a fishing town in Southern Ireland, I’ve always lived near the sea, and being by the water never fails to make me feel happy and calm, so working at Harbour Rise feels like a perfect fit. I love spending time with my husband, our three daughters, and our two wonderful grandchildren. I relax by reading, especially historical novels, and good mystery stories, and if I can listen to my book whilst walking along by the sea, then that is even better!

Although I was born and educated in France (Angers University) and Yorkshire (Hull University), I have now spent more time living in the UK than in France! I have been the joint director and owner of Harbour Rise since 2007, working very closely with my husband Mark, who was born in Marldon, Paignton. Working at Harbour Rise gives me a real sense of achievement as I love to be involved in a team of passionate and dedicated staff who give nothing but their best to our lovely residents.
I am also the very proud mother of three lovely and lively boys. Football seems to be the main thing we talk about at home, so in my spare time I love to go out with friends, go shopping and prepare a nice meal for all of us to enjoy! If I can, I also love to turn my phone off and get stuck into a great book!

I was born in Paignton, and although I worked in finance in London for 20 years, I was delighted to return to Devon to raise my family of 3 boys and further develop and improve Harbour Rise.
We have owned Harbour Rise since 2007, and as well as caring for many wonderful residents, we have transformed the home from 22 to 44 bedrooms, and I believe there is not an inch that we have not renovated or improved! I love the warmth and atmosphere of the home. Although the care industry can be stressful, I enjoy seeing our staff and residents looking happy and thriving – this is our biggest achievement.
Outside of work, I love to be busy with water sports, cycling and of course football! Watching my sons play football is my favourite part of the weekend, as well as watching Arsenal and Plymouth Argyle.I enjoy a glass of red wine in the winter and a pastis in the summer, love to spend time off in France, where I still try to improve my French.

Hello, I’m Laura! I have had the pleasure of working at Harbour Rise for the past 20 years, during which I’ve taken on a variety of roles, gaining a wealth of experience and knowledge along the way. For just over a year now, I’ve been providing managerial support, a role I find both engaging and rewarding.
Outside of work, I’m a proud mother of three wonderful children who bring immense joy to my life. Our family has recently grown with the addition of Bertie, our beautiful Cockapoo puppy, who has quickly become a beloved member of our household.
In my free time, I love spending quality moments with family and friends, going for walks, and diving into a good book.

I started my career in 1998, working in the laundry at Harbour Rise. Over the years, I’ve taken on many different roles and eventually became Head of Care when Mark and Cecile took over the business in 2007. I’ve seen many changes to the home and feel privileged to have been part of its journey. One job I’ll never do, though, is drive the bus—driving’s not exactly my favourite hobby.
When I first started, I was young, free, and single. During my time here, I met and married my husband, Ken, and we now have one son who is an adult. I love getting to know our residents and their families, and I truly believe Harbour Rise is one big family.
Outside of work, I have a busy social life. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, going on trips, and attending concerts—especially Take That. I also love going for walks, especially when there’s a nice pub at the end for a relaxing lunch!

Hi, I’m Hayley. I joined Harbour Rise in January 2023. I previously worked for NRS Healthcare for 10 years. I love my role at Harbour Rise, overseeing everything Daycare – I am very proud of the relationships I have built up with our Daycare guests, their families and the professionals.
I have lived in Paignton for 27 years. I am a very busy Mum of 4 crazy children. In my spare time, I love to eat out, spend time with my family, kayak, swim and do coastal trekking with my youngest daughter, Lexi, who is very well known at Harbour Rise.
