My family and I are immensely grateful to Lincombe Manor Care Centre for their kindness, high level of professional care and attention to detail shown to my dear wife throughout her 2 and a half year stay.
In addition, their thoughtfulness and genuine concern for my personal wellbeing during this
difficult period was hugely supportive.
Individual dignity and privacy was always respected, which played an important role in making the experience as positive as possible.

Mum arrived from hospital for respite following a broken pelvis. She was in great pain and very anxious. The staff at Lincombe Manor were very welcoming and warm and friendly. She grew in confidence as the staff helped and encouraged her walking. She also grew around the stomach as the food was second
to none. I would like to say an enormous thank you to all the staff and wouldn't think twice to bring mum back should she need more respite in the future.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 'second mum' stayed at the care home for four months after a short spell in hospital, and because she was no longer able to be cared for appropriately at home. She was very well looked after and her needs were fully met. She especially enjoyed the food! The staff were lovely and clearly did their
best to make her feel comfortable and loved. It was a shame that she was not sufficiently well enough to enjoy all the education and entertainments that were put on in the home, or indeed, the magnificent surroundings. As visitors, the facilities were excellent as was the hospitality.

I have visited many care home, both as a relative and as a volunteer with a local charity. Many were found wanting in their standards of care. Lincombe Manor meets all the criteria of an excellent care home. All the staff were wonderful, where nothing was too much trouble. Nutritious, home cooked food,
a clean bright environment and attention to detail was apparent everywhere. After my weeks of respite care I will, thankfully, leave refreshed in body and spirit.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father lived in Lincombe Manor just short of a month. He came for respite care but his heart was failing which was having an effect on his independent lifestyle. I cannot express how wonderful all the staff were from the first enquiry until we came to say our farewells.
The place is everything a
care home should be - professional, clean, caring and excellent, kind staff.
Above all, the place is run with a 'resident first' mindset. It is rare to find such high standards and exceptional service in this sector.
My sister and I are so grateful that our beloved father passed in a safe, dignified environment.

My Grannie was 93 when she had 5 mini strokes, after 3 weeks in hospital she went to Lincombe Manor. The nurses were fabulous and got her eating some food (which we never thought would happen), her quality of life in her last days increased ten fold and we are very grateful to everyone who worked there
who looked after her. Everything was thought about, even small things like washing her hair which she would have enjoyed so much. The Manor is beautiful and so clean and tidy. Thank you for looking after her so well. I would 100% recommend.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother aged 91, originally came to stay at Lincombe Manor Care Centre in June 2017 for a month's holiday. Leaving behind her own flat and the assistance of 2 carers - 4 times a day. However, after experiencing the care, support and quality of life that Lincombe Manor Care Centre offers, she did not
want to go home. Seven months later, my mum is thriving in the wonderful environment. I cannot speak highly enough of all the staff who work there. They treat her as an individual and with dignity. Nothing is too much trouble. I visit my mum at least 3 or 4 times a week and in all those visits, I have never found anything to cause any concern at all. In the reception area, it says 'Welcome to our home' and that is what it is. When mum first came here, I never envisaged the difference the love, care and support of this wonderful team could make to mum's life. She has a quality of life now and so enjoys the entertainment that they bring in-house and opportunities to go out.

Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
First impressions were fantastic its in a stunning place with fantastic views. The staff were very pleasant and friendly and the home was clean and tidy. The down side which was a very big one, was that my aunt was bed nursed stuck in the room with very little interaction from the staff. I arrived at
11.45am one morning to find my aunt not washed or dressed with her breakfast down her front, it would be hours in between anyone popping in to check on her. The log that's kept will confirm this, for £1000 a week this was unacceptable and we couldn't wait to get her home.

Review from Paul S (Husband of Resident) published on 21 July 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife arrived towards the end of May and has been made to feel most welcome and cared for, our family and friends have also received a warm welcome from all of the staff from the Management, Nursing, Care Staff, Catering and Support Staff.
This has been a very difficult time but the staff have helped
make the transition as seamless as possible.
The look of accommodation is more like a boutique hotel compared to other care homes we looked at, bright, very clean good size rooms all en suite, with Flat screen TV's and wonderful views over Torbay.
Having looked at quite a few nursing homes and brochures then visiting the homes the feeling of being under whelmed and in some cases very disappointed as the brochures made them look better than they where and once visited, feeling very worried about the situation we found ourselves in until I compared the Lincombe Manor brochure with its facilities/equipment. They have a very good brochure but feel it does not do the home or facilities justice, add to this the positive attitude of the staff we met on our unannounced fact-finding visits.
Don't take my word go along and see for yourself.
There is a spacious dining and kitchen area with an adjoining terrace with tables and chairs on the lower level.
On the ground floor, there is a comfortable quiet room with ample seating.
And on the top floor, there is a wonderful lounge, and dining area plus a spectacular roof terrace with tables and chairs and far-reaching views over Torbay towards Brixham and Thatcher Rock.
I cannot recommend Lincombe Manor Care Centre highly enough. (We have even had doctors and health care professionals comment that this is the standard all homes should aim/aspire to reach).

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.807)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.807) out of 10 for Lincombe Manor Care Centre 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 36 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 34 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 4.807 for Lincombe Manor Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (369 Excellents x 5) + (43 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 425 Ratings = 4.807
  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 Lincombe Manor Care Centre is based on 34 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 48 registered maximum number of service users is 9.6, which has been reached with 34 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.

Hello, my name is Naomi and I have been working at Lincombe Manor Care Centre since 2022. I completed my level 3 in Health and Social Care at college and applied for a job here. I was first offered a position on the Wellbeing Team which I really enjoyed but when an opening became available for a Healthcare Assistant, I had to apply as that was my passion. I got the role and was a Healthcare Assistant for 1 year before being offered a Senior Healthcare Assistant position which I accepted. I really enjoy my job. I love to spend time with the residents and make them look and feel nice by helping with their hair and make-up.


In my spare time, I like to travel and spend time with my partner, family and friends. I enjoy festivals and being outside in the sunshine, summer is my favourite time of the year.
