boxes in all areas such as activities and events.

Mount Tryon Care Home provided outstanding care for our father. From the outset, the team at Mount Tryon were very supportive to us all and helped Dad to settle in as quickly as possible. The home is modern, bright and very clean and staff are always so friendly and welcoming. The coffee room
provided for residents and visitors and the gardens provide sociable spaces to make visits more enjoyable. The entire team from nursing staff, carers managers, cleaners, catering staff and entertainment staff go above and beyond to provide the best possible experience for residents and their families. Nursing and care staff were professional, compassionate and respectful and maintained excellent communication with us throughout Dad's journey and we will always be incredibly grateful to them. It was such a comfort knowing Dad was in such capable hands and we cannot recommend Mount Tryon highly enough.

Choosing a care home for your loved one is such a difficult thing to do. When I went to visit Mount Tryon for the first time I was so pleased and instantly put at ease. The home was so clean, well presented and more like a small friendly hotel. My relative has now been there for a few years. They
look after them, care for them even when times are tuff and their condition can be very challenging for them and others.
From my experience I would definitely recommend them but go and visit them and make your own mind up.

This review is specifically about the Management, staff and facilities at the Barchester's Mount Tryon Care Home in Torquay.
Mum has now been resident at the Mount Tryon Care Home for nearly 4 months.
Quite naturally, Mum was a very unsure about the big change in her life moving from independent
living into "care". Change at any time in life can be difficult to handle - for a 91 year old such change is significant.
However, it wasn't long before Mum settled in.
The light rooms; open and free layout; the kind, welcoming and positive staff - management, nurses, support people, cleaners and handymen; the excellent food; the daily interactive activities; medical support; its security; and its positive ethos all make Mount Tryon a true home from home.
Her happiness is core. We are happy and confident that Mum is being expertly cared for and that her future path will be safe and happy.
Thank you Mount Tryon!

My Mum recently moved into Mount Tryon and we are so pleased she did. The home is wonderful. Every member of staff is helpful and kind. The management have been so helpful and the activities are so well ran. What was a worrying and stressful decision was made so much easier with support and
kindness. Thank you to all at Mount Tryon. Thoroughly recommend to anyone looking for care.

It has been almost 3 months since Mum went to Mount Tryon due to her Alzheimer's meaning she could no longer be at home. Mum was given a very friendly welcome the moment that she went through the door and that friendly caring attitude has continued with all the staff. A difficult situation and
transition to a change in accommodation have been made much easier by the professionalism and caring attitude of everyone.

My mum receives outstanding care at Mount Tryon Care Home. The carers are truly wonderful-attentive, compassionate, and always willing to go above and beyond to make sure she is comfortable and happy. The management team is excellent, and the home is run with real professionalism and warmth.
There is a fantastic range of entertainment and activities organised every day, which keeps residents engaged and brings so much joy. The food is beautiful, thanks to the amazing chef and her team, and the entire home is kept wonderfully clean.
I look forward to my visit to see mum each week, and I love to catch up with all the wonderful team at Mount Tryon.
I have complete peace of mind knowing my mum is so well looked after. I highly recommend Mount Tryon Care Home.

2 weeks respite care in Mount Tryon were a great help in speeding up my recovery following hospital in-patient treatment

My sister moved up to the first floor due to her increasing needs. She's been in her room for a decade (downstairs). The move was handled so well by the staff, who were kindness itself.
The upstairs staff were so welcoming - especially Jane, who organised a pamper day to welcome her.
She's very
happy in her new room.

The nurses and assistants was alway's in tears of laughter, brought on by Nan. This was a new side to Nan, one that we rarly seen. The family would like to thank
all the staff from top to bottom for there care and attention when looking after Nan. Thankyou.

Mum moved into Mount Tryon as a short term basis/trial period due to early onset dementia and recently suffering a nasty fall. Within a week Mum decided to stay perminatly. She enjoys the activities, people to talk to and especially the food. Whilst living alone at home she was wasting away, she is
putting on weight and able to get around now. The staff are all extremely friendly and helpful with any event that may arise.
Update.. Mum has now been there for about 5 months and still happy as Larry! The carers have gone out of their way to help mum with serious podiatrist care, and making sure she is always looking clean, hair done and everything taken care of! She is piling the weight back on, thank goodness and loving the entertainment!
Thanks so much Mt Tryon x

The home is very welcoming. The staff are very friendly. The arts and crafts are certainly 100% This helps very much with the social side. The care is good but not exceptional, in the fact of not knowing who to contact. On the whole I think my sister is happy.

It was a great pleasure for me and my wife to visit my cousin in Barchester Mount Tryon Care Home. My cousin is receiving care which is, in my opinion, second to none. The staff are first class, nothing is a bother for them and it feel such a happy place. It is also spotlessly clean and the rooms
and garden areas are superb. I'm not very good at remembering names but the chef is a very caring person and her and her staff supply wonderful varied food for everyone. To end, I'd just say it was a wonderful experience.

We recently needed some respite care for my Mum. Admitted to hospital and being told she was medically fit we had to turn to looking for care homes at short notice. We went around several homes and were extremely disappointed. We went to Mount Tryon and were overwhelmed by their kindness, compassion
and professionalism. They completed an assessment with mum and she was admitted the same day. Two weeks on we couldn't be happier. Mum has settled and decided she will stay permanently. Very happy, big thank you to everyone at Mount Tryon.

I previously left a review for Mount Tryon as my aunt is a resident here & I couldn't speak more highly of the home or its staff. I now volunteer here once a week visiting residents on Memory Lane who either don't have regular visitors or some who don't have any visitors. I had previously said that
once I retired I would return to voluntary work as when my children were young I helped to run a mother & toddler group & a playgroup & had envisioned returning to something similar or possibly a primary school. When I was asked by the activities co-ordinator if I'd like to volunteer here it was a no-brainer, I'd already begun chatting to one of the ladies & really enjoyed our chats. Well over a year later I know it was the right decision, I really look forward to my Friday visits, hopefully as much as the residents look forward to seeing me. I feel honoured to have been asked to help with this, I am made to feel very welcome by everyone at Mount Tryon & always feel a part of the team.

My daughter and I chose Mount Tryon as we needed a safe and comfortable environment where my 87 year old mother could recover from a broken leg and heart surgery before returning home. The staff, accommodation and facilities were absolutely first class. The management manage their friendly staff
and every aspect of Mount Tryon extremely well and extend their kindness, patience and caring to guests and visitors as well as the residents. The experience could be likened to being in a hotel with large, comfortable bedrooms, spacious lounge areas, lovely gardens and a restaurant offering delicious menu choices each day. There was even a hairdressing salon! Mount Tryon is an excellent home from home and exceeded our expectations.
