Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mother was one of the first residents in Escan Manor when it opened two years ago. There have certainly been quite a few staff changes - but I feel I have to praise how the care home has moved on in the last few months.
My Mother may be heading for end of life, and the staff have gone above
and beyond with the care for Mum and the support offered to our family. Some of these staff have been loyal to Escan through the changes in management and other staffing issues over the last two years. I hope Morar Living reward their staff accordingly and value their contribution towards what will hopefully be recognised as a 5 star care home. I believe CQC have recently attended and I do hope they publish the revised findings promptly - which must be good to outstanding based on how it is now. We certainly have no complaints and are very pleased Mum has had this time in her life at Escan Manor. Thank you.

My mother has recently moved into Escan Manor and we have been very satisfied with the care received, surroundings and activities. We are working with them on a couple of minor things, one is wearing of name badges which is important for new residents and those with dementia and for following up with
relevant staff for feedback; the other is around GP appointments and feedback of results and if visits actually occurred. All the staff are very friendly and interact well with all the residents from what we have seen.

My mother has lived at Escan Manor since April 2025. She loves it there, and feels very much cared for. The staff are all lovely, and they go to great trouble to make life enjoyable and comfortable for the residents. Her room is spacious with an en suite bathroom, and large windows with a meadow
view. They are sensitive to her vegetarian diet. Medical issues are swiftly attended to. The on site hairdresser is much appreciated, equally for manicure and pedicure. The central location is very convenient. Highly recommended

My Wife moved into Escan Manor in April 2025, after spending 6 months previously in another Care Home, following a severe stroke. There have been certain problems at times, but these have been quickly resolved, and the Management have been very approachable and helpful. The Staff are both friendly and
always willing to make life a little easier for residents. The rooms are very comfortable and the facilities provided excellent.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I cannot thank all the staff at Escan Manor enough for the care they are providing Mum. My father was her main carer but the situation at home became increasingly fraught due to mum's dementia. Eventually Dad was persuaded that moving in to a care home was the best option for Mum. They have been married
for 76 years so not an easy decision. From the initial meeting with the manager (thank you) I was reassured that this was the place for Mum. The whole family can't believe how welcoming, caring and friendly everyone we have met have been. Dad visits everyday and is made to feel so welcome and cared for too. This is care above and beyond and we all want to thank you so much for making a difficult situation so manageable. We particularly like the small units where there are many little rooms that you can go into should you wish. It really feels like a cross between a really nice hotel and a "home" . Just wow, and heartfelt thanks to all. We should have done this month's ago!
Reply from Hazel McGwyne, Home Manager at Escan ManorThank you so much for your wonderful and heartfelt feedback. It truly means a great deal to the whole team at Escan Manor. We understand how difficult it can be to make the decision for a loved one to move into care, especially after so many years together, and we're so pleased to hear that your mum and dad are both feeling supported and comfortable.

Our aim is always to create a homely, welcoming environment where residents and their families feel part of our community, so it's lovely to know this has made a difference to you all. I'll be sure to share your kind words with the team - they'll be delighted to know their care and warmth are appreciated.

Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience. It's a privilege to care for your mum and to welcome your dad each day.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Excellent purpose-built building with great views of Exeter Canal Basin and Haldon Hills. However, no garden but offset by good, large balconies. No sun protection on Mum's nearest balcony at time of writing despite many requests. Staff are very caring and kind from all parts of the world. Looking for
permanent manager at time of writing so management needs improving. Too much staff turnover and too little communication. Also, lack of name badges at time of writing. Overall good but room for improvement.
Reply from Mark Webb-Austin, Regional Manager at Escan ManorThank you for your feedback. We welcome feedback as it assists us with the ongoing review and improvement of our services. We are now providing shade from the sun on balconies used by our residents. Name badges are on order and we await their delivery. The home has experienced some turnover of staff buy this has had a positive effect on the home. The home continues to recruit individuals that will embrace and promote the values of Morar Living. There are a number of new employees currently onboarding. One of which is the new home manager, who joins us in August. He brings with him a wealth of experience and a solid reputation.

The overall care received by my Mum until her death was satisfactory but the refund process for money owed to us after her death didn't work for our family.
Reply from Mark Webb-Austin, Regional Manager at Escan ManorWe are deeply sorry about your loss, and we extend our heartfelt condolences to you and your family during this difficult time.We understand how frustrating delays can be, especially under such emotional circumstances. While the refund process can take some time, please know that this is due to our need to follow established policies that are in place to protect the security and wellbeing of all our residents and their loved ones.We truly appreciate your patience and understanding, and we are here to support you in any way we can.

The staff are polite and friendly. Rooms are clean with a rota showing dates and times. Most meals are served in the room for my dad as he does not like to mix with the other residents, and has limited walking capacity. The dementia unit is secure with key pad entry/exit. Not that dad would be walking
about.
Reply from Escan Manor, Management at Escan ManorThank you so much for your kind feedback. We're glad to hear that our staff's friendliness and the cleanliness of the rooms have made a positive impression. It's great to know your dad feels comfortable with meals served in his room, and we're always happy to tailor care to each resident's needs and preferences. Ensuring safety and dignity in our dementia household is a top priority, so we appreciate you noting the secure environment. If there's ever anything more we can do to support your dad, please don't hesitate to let us know

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My parents (who both have dementia) have been at Escan Manor since Aug/Sept 2024. My father was at another home in Exeter (rated close to 10*, with an "Outstanding" CQC) but they told us they could not deal with him any more - in particular his tendency to shout if he has an urgent need. Several other
care homes refused to take him. Escan Manor, by contrast, has done an excellent job of managing his needs. I also find the staff much friendlier than at the previous home. As for my mother, the home has worked hard to help her settle in, especially in light of her anxiety and confusion. There have been personnel changes, but I regularly see care staff that I've got to know from previous visits. The home is purpose-built, well designed and v.warm (both parents really feel the cold). Can't say it's all been perfect (e.g. admin/communication is v.poor) - but for me, the most important thing is the care, which in my experience has been very good.
Reply from Diana Cole, Home Manager at Escan ManorThank you for taking the time to share your experience at Escan Manor.

My father moved in June 2024, following a 2 year stay in another home, he moved to be closer to his family. It took him a while to settle in with constant changes in staff, especially nurses and then understanding his needs and acknowledging his care plan. There have been a few incidents of not having
his medication which have caused a lot of anxiety. With more changes and the departure of management and senior staff, we are starting to worry that we have made the right decision. We are not feeling confident that his complex needs are being met and for the home whilst promising, they seem to be going through a period of uncertainty.
Reply from Escan Manor, Home Manager at Escan ManorThank you for sharing your feedback about your father's experience at Escan Manor. We're so pleased that he has been able to move closer to his family, as we know how important this connection is for his well-being. Adjusting to a new environment can take time, and we're grateful for the opportunity to support him during this transition. While the home is undergoing some changes, we remain fully committed to maintaining the high standards of care and ensuring that all residents' needs, including your father's, are met with compassion and professionalism.We're proud of our dedicated team and the care they provide, and we're focused on building a stable and supportive environment for all residents. Your input is valuable to us, and we would welcome the chance to discuss your father's care further to provide reassurance and address any specific concerns you may have. Thank you again for your feedback and support.

Nursing staff coming and going. Caring staff coming and going. Rumours of the manager not being particularly nice or able to do his job in a professional manner.
Issues with the food being substandard and not of good quality. Room cleanliness below standard. This is a review based on previous issues
and not a reflection on the recent changes. Thankfully the manager has left along with a former receptionist.
The acting manager is absolutely fantastic and issues that the previous manager couldn't be bothered to address are now in hand with a big improvement.
The acting manager deserves to be promoted to manager!
Hopefully, this improvement will remain and other issues will be addressed. This is sadly quite a negative review but it's an honest one.

My friend came to Escan Care Home in mid-October and has now been there for 6 weeks. I believe there were problems to begin with, as was not invoiced for her care, but this has now been rectified since the manager has left. The assistant manager has been great and has endeavoured to sort out any problem
immediately. She has also been honest and upfront if there is a problem.
My friend is starting to settle and has been offered to attend the different activities, but she has declined as would rather stay in her room.
The food looks good, and the bedrooms and central areas are beautiful with great attention to detail. When the manager has been appointed (I am hoping the assistant manager will be appointed) Escan Manor can only go one way "Up".
Reply from Dawn Leaman, Manager at Escan ManorThank you for sharing such a thoughtful and detailed review. We're delighted to hear that your friend is beginning to settle at Escan Care Home and that you've noticed the care and attention we put into our environment, food, and activities.We sincerely apologise for the initial issues with invoicing but are pleased these have now been resolved.

Although this is a very clean and tidy place, I have found that the lady I visit has twice to my knowledge been left for over an half hour after asking to use the toilet and has therefore wet the bed/chair and sat in it uncomfortably for a while which does not help the sores she has. I have also noticed
when breakfast is brought in no one has offered to sit and encourage/feed her. It was just left on the table for her to help herself. If this is happening at lunchtime as well then she has no chance of building her strength back up. I know staff shortages don't help but don't take in more residents until you have the staff to look after them properly.

The team take great pride and ensures that the atmosphere is relaxed, and welcoming and the residents are respected. It does have that hotel feeling which makes the experience a very pleasant one. My parents are delighted by the excellent level of care they receive. They are extremely happy and settled
in well. Communication is good between the team and the residents. I couldn't have wished for a nicer place for them to be in and call it their forever home. My only concern is that the quality of the food has dropped but I know it's getting a bit better.
Reply from John Holliday, Home Manager at Escan ManorThank you so much for taking the time to share such wonderful words about our home and the care we are providing for your parents - it's an absolute privilege to have them both living here with us at Escan Manor.

There is only one word to say about this wonderful place wow. It’s very apprehensive visiting a relative for the first time in a strange environment. However, from the first moment you walk in the whole atmosphere is so beautiful and welcoming. It’s not institutionalised in any way. It’s more like a
five-star hotel. The staff are all dressed as professional carers and treat the residents with total respect. I visited at lunchtime to see my two family members. I was offered lunch and taken to the small dining room which looked so welcoming, even a bottle of wine being opened for residents. It was so reassuring to see my family members so relaxed in a stunning place such as Escan Manor.
Reply from John Holliday, Registered Manager at Escan ManorThank you for your wonderful review - we absolutely love welcoming visitors to our home, so I'm delighted to hear that your first visit was such a positive experience.

The 4.822 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Escan Manor is based on 14 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.85
    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 72 registered maximum number of service users is 14.4. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.4 = 0.972
  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.

Rosie

Rosie Powell

Job Title: Care Home Manager Joined: 2024

Rosie started her journey in care at 19 as a domiciliary care assistant, and from the very beginning, she knew this was where she was meant to be. Rosie soon moved into working in care homes and, through dedication, hard work, and the support of inspiring leaders around her, progressed from Care Assistant to Home Manager.


Care is not just her career; it’s something very personal to Rosie. Having also supported her own loved ones during their care, Rosie truly understands how important trust, compassion, and communication are for families. That experience shapes the way she leads every day.


Rosie is incredibly proud of my team and passionate about creating a home where residents feel safe, valued, and truly at home. Person-centred care is at the heart of everything we do, recognising that every individual has their own story, preferences, and wishes that deserve to be respected.


Rosie is open, believes in transparency, and is committed to building strong, supportive relationships with both residents and their families. Together, we create a warm, caring community where everyone feels they belong.
