Review from Geoff W (Son of Resident) published on 9 May 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

In September 2017 my mother became a resident at Hillside House. The decision by the family to choose that particular home was one that we will never regret. The level of care extended to my mother and all the residents is exemplary. Since being there my mother has been treated with courtesy and kindness by all members of staff who provide a range of imaginative activities throughout the week for all to enjoy. Privacy is always respected and personal choice is encouraged. Hillside House is set in a peaceful accessible location with stunning views over the beautiful Devon countryside. As this is a recently built care home all the bedrooms and communal areas have been finished to the highest standard. The facilities and amenities are first class. I can unreservedly recommend this care home.

Review from Margaret C (Resident / Service User) published on 3 May 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I have stayed at Hillside House 3 times after hospital treatment. I had an excellent experience.
The rooms are spacious and tastefully furnished with lovely views over the countryside.
I needed a special diet and all my needs were catered for with delicious food.
Everyone is encouraged to be comfortable and nobody has to eat in the dining room if they do not want to.
I was told that the aim was for everyone to be happy.
I certainly was and if I have to go to hospital again I hope that there will be a room for me to recover in.

Who knows one day I might be a permanent resident. I can't think of a better place to be.

Review from Astrid P (Daughter of Resident) published on 3 May 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Set in an area of outstanding natural beauty with far reaching views to sea at the front and down the valley to the rear. Ponies grazing, goats and ducks visually entertain.
The Holistic, individualised care, home cooked meals, friendly welcoming staff and attention to detail led by the managers is simply amazing.
I can only show appreciation for this hard-working, forward-looking team who are always planning new and wonderful things for all to enjoy; be it a party, craft activity, a game of cards over a cup of tea, gardening activities or you may be treated to sounds of the piano playing by one of the residents.
Wonderful, empathic care for the good and bad days that chronic illness can bring.

A sanctuary we are so fortunate to have found.

Review from Patricia W (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 2 May 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I call this care home, 'A little bit of heaven'. All the rooms look out over the wonderful countryside views, with goats, ducks and horses just outside.

All the residents are extremely well cared for by the owner and a wonderful, cheerful, committed team of carers. The provision provided is exceptional, this includes, daily activities, lovely balanced meals, cleanliness, and beautiful surroundings. My mother in law has been a resident for 8 months, shortly after entering the home she sadly lost her husband who was also a resident. During this time she and the family were treated with respect and dignity. We continue to always feel our mum is safe, happy and well cared for. I love visiting her in the home where there is always a welcome, a smile and a cup of tea and a homemade biscuit. We all feel very lucky to have found this home.
