Four of us, two daughters and granddaughter, went to visit my oldest friend. One daughter was the goddaughter of my friend. I was delighted to see the residence which I thought was first class. Beautifully appointed. I loved the decor, plenty of space, sitting areas and gracious dining rooms. We were given a tasty lunch in the private dining room. A first-class experience. Residents are privileged.
Thank you for taking the time to review our home, we're delighted to hear you enjoyed your visit and were able to make use of our wonderful Private Dining room. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

I have now been here since the 23rd of August 2023. My husband died in February, and we had the most incredible help from the wonderful staff. I am quite content to think I shall spend the rest of my days here. The carers are fantastic and give 100% occupied with love. You could not ask for more, you could have every facility you could possibly want and entertainment (I have experienced the homes).
Thank you so much for taking the time to submit such a wonderful review; we are so pleased that you are so happy living here and thank you for choosing Watermeadow Grange!

He is far happier than he was living on his own due to how welcoming the staff here and their continuing support. His quality of life is much improved which is a credit to all at Watermeadow.

Dad knew the time had come for him to move into a home, and he had enjoyed looking around and meeting the managers.
All of the staff are friendly and treat Dad with dignity and respect.
There are a variety of activities available, which Dad joins in with occasionally, and the organisers always check in with him if he is not there.
The food is great too!
Dad recently had an emergency hospital visit which was handled very professionally by the staff involved.
After a night in the hospital, Dad returned, and it was lovely to see the staff welcome him back; Dad was emotional too, as he was back where he felt at home with people he recognised.
As a family, we know Dad is being cared for and supported at Watermeadow and is happy there.
If we have any queries, they are answered quickly.
Thank you so very much for your truly wonderful review. We are so pleased to hear you are so happy with the care your dad receives at Watermeadow Grange and that he has settled so well into his new home. He certainly is part of the 'family' and has a wonderful sense of humour, which we all thoroughly enjoy!

My mother moved to Watermeadow Grange six months ago. The care is excellent. There are always plenty of staff around. My mother has dementia so cannot always join in with some of the activities but the staff provide very person-centred care and she is encouraged and enabled to do as much as possible. She tells me the staff are lovely and she feels safe and well cared for.
Thank you for such positive feedback, which we will share with the team. We are so pleased to hear you are happy with the care provided by the team and especially that your mum feels safe and well cared for!

My father has been in respite in this amazing care home 3 times now, the staff and service is beyond outstanding, nothing is ever too much trouble. He was lucky enough to open the marketing suite in March 2023 as he was once the local policeman of Topsham. He is counting down the days until he returns (and me to visit for the yummy cakes).
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback, we're so pleased to hear your dad enjoys his stays with us and you like visiting just as much! We will share your feedback to the team and we look forward to welcoming him back very soon!
The care I am having here at Watermeadow is of the highest ends. It is delivered with extreme kindness and empathy. I spent a lot of my earlier years alone, nursing my mother through rheumatoid arthritis and I had a little boy who was disabled. I therefore wholly appreciate the care I am having.

Very friendly staff who are tolerant of relatives coming in and out. Sensitive to my mother's needs. Willing to engage members of the local community to enhance the residents' lives, for example the singing group being led by the local choirmaster. Comfortable rooms with plenty of light. Staff are very prompt to act and initiate procedures when there appears to be a medical issue.
Thank you for your kind words we will be sure to share this with the team. We are so pleased that you are happy with the care provided and the community relationships we have been building to help enhance our residents' lives. We love welcoming all our visitors to our home!

We arranged a luncheon at Watermeadow Grange for close family to celebrate the life of my Father who passed away at the home in February. His expressed wish was not to have a funeral but for the family to meet for a meal and remember all the good times we had enjoyed with him over the years. The occasion could not have gone better. The food and service were excellent and the private dining room proved the perfect setting for his important occasion. The staff were all so caring and made such a great effort to make sure that my Mother felt supported on what was a very emotional day for her. The whole family is immensely grateful to all the wonderful people at Watermeadow Grange.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us such positive feedback. We are so pleased to hear that your family luncheon in private dining went so well and I know everyone involved felt privileged to be part of this celebration. We are also pleased that your Mum felt supported especially on that day.

Our father was initially booked in for two weeks of respite care, although sadly he passed away at the end of that period. We couldn't have wished for better care during his brief stay at Watermeadow Grange. The biggest compliment we can pay is that the facility is more like a hotel than a care home. However, the biggest plus is the staff. Every member of the team that we met was friendly, professional and compassionate. They gave each family member the confidence to leave early at night knowing that Dad would be cared for. During his final hours, Dad and all family members were treated with the utmost care and dignity. Thoroughly recommended.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such a wonderful review and an even bigger thank you for choosing us and trusting us to look after your father at such a difficult time for you all. It was our privilege to be able to look after him for the end stage of his life and be able to support you and your family too.
Fabulous. A really lovely care home with great amenities including a cinema room with armchairs! Great activities for residents and amazing food!

Mum moved into Watermeadow Grange recently. It was a huge upheaval for her to move from her own home. She has settled in really well and that is very much down to the gentle care and attention she has received from everyone since she moved in. On my visits, I have found everyone very friendly and helpful and most importantly they all seem to really enjoy their work and genuinely care for the welfare of the residents. Nothing is too much trouble.
Watermeadow is truly a wonderful place in so many ways - the food is excellent - all freshly made and the food choices are tailored to all tastes. The surroundings are fabulous - very clean and very tastefully decorated throughout. The itinerary for activities for the residents is excellent - Mum particularly enjoys the daily exercise classes which have already impacted her general strength and mobility.
I feel that so much care and thought has gone into all aspects of the home and feel very lucky that we were able to secure a room for mum.
Wow what an amazing review which I will share with the team. Thank you so much for taking the time to review our home and we are so pleased that we're making such a positive difference to your mum.

As General Manager at Watermeadow Grange, I feel incredibly proud to be part of such a caring and supportive community. My role is to lead the overall day-to-day running of the home, ensuring every resident receives the highest standard of person-centred care within a safe, welcoming and homely environment. Building strong relationships with our residents, families and team is one of the most rewarding aspects of my role, and I truly believe these connections are what make our home so special.
I am passionate about creating an environment where residents feel safe, valued, respected and truly at home. I work closely with our dedicated team to ensure we deliver compassionate, high-quality care while supporting residents to continue living fulfilling and meaningful lives with dignity, companionship and happiness every day.MY EXPERIENCE
Throughout my 20-year nursing career, I have remained passionate about supporting older people and creating positive experiences for both residents and their families. My experience has given me a strong understanding of the importance of kindness, empathy and person-centred support, and I am committed to leading a team that shares these values.
At Watermeadow Grange, our team is carefully selected not only for their skills and experience, but also for their compassion, warmth and willingness to always go the extra mile to brighten someone’s day. I am proud to lead such a dedicated team who work tirelessly to create a truly supportive and caring environment.
ABOUT ME
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends and appreciate the importance of creating meaningful moments with the people around us. I bring this same ethos into daily life at Watermeadow Grange, where we are more than just a care home, we are a family.

What I DoMy name is Tanya, and I am a Home Admissions Advisor. My role is to provide information and support to those looking at moving into care and the options available to them. Choosing the right care home can be a difficult decision to make, whether it be future planning or reacting to a crisis, it’s often a daunting, emotional experience for the prospective resident or their family, but I am here to make the journey simple, clear and give all the answers to all the questions you may have and make the process a positive one.
My ExperienceDelivering excellent customer service has always been a passion of mine, and I have many years of experience working in the social housing sector. However, for the last 6 years, I have worked in the luxury care home sector, which has been so rewarding, and it’s always been a pleasure to be the first point of contact for people enquiring. I strongly believe in treating people in the same way I would expect myself or my family to be treated. A little bit of kindness goes a long way. After relocating to North Devon, I am proud to be working for Cinnamon Care Collection and continue in a role I am passionate about with a company that shares the same passions and ethics as I do.
About MeI relocated from Wiltshire to North Devon with my partner to follow our self-build dream, selling our beautiful home to move onto our plot (yes, in a caravan!), so for the foreseeable future, my spare time will be on the site getting stuck in to make the dream a reality! When I do get some ‘me’ time, I am a keen runner, having completed numerous half marathons to eventually complete a full marathon, I’d be happy just doing it once though!! I have two grown-up children and am so lucky to have the most adorable 3-year-old granddaughter.

My experience:My background is in events coordination, working in the local community with families and groups creating diverse art projects, teaching English, and running an Art Gallery in North Devon. I love working at Watermeadow Grange, being with such wonderful residents and the team here to make some new and old memories with our activities and events programme.
About me:I live near Tiverton and have two grown-up sons, George and Harry. I love my garden, reading, drawing, going on lots of adventures and spending time with family and friends.
