This is my second review as I’ve been here for over a year now. And love it even more. The activities are great (my favourites are the quiz). Roll on the warmer weather when I can go up to the terrace in the sun. The staff here are fab including the reception staff, who put a smile on our faces. Our
new manager is super too. Everything about Lincombe Manor is brilliant. I count myself very lucky to be in such a lovely home.

Reply from Nicola Grace, General Manager at Lincombe Manor Care Centre

What a wonderful review. I am glad that you have settled well into life at Lincombe Manor. It truly is a brilliant place. It's great that you are enjoying the variety of daily activities we have on offer, as well as our entertaining staff. You certainly brighten up my day when I see all of your deliveries arriving.

Lincombe Manor is one of the best nursing homes in the area and we are grateful they were able to take our mother for her final weeks.
However, there were some shortcomings in her care which concerned us - in fairness this may have been partly due to the fact that our mother’s health was worse when
she arrived than the hospital had led Lincombe Manor to believe, but things could have been picked up and acted on sooner - particularly with regard to nutrition and medication.
Communication was quite poor throughout her stay and we were quite shocked and upset that not a single person from the home offered their condolences on our mother's passing, apart from the nurse who came to her room to confirm she had passed. From the moment we left the building that day we did not receive any further contact.
So whilst Lincombe Manor is one of the best nursing homes around, I would caution perhaps not for end-of-life care unless already an established resident.

Reply from Nicola Grace, General Manager at Lincombe Manor Care Centre

We are grateful for your kind words about Lincombe Manor Care Centre being one of the best nursing homes in the area, although acknowledge your comments about your experience. We take great pride in our end-of-life care and have a wealth of knowledge and expertise within the team, working very closely with the local hospice, hospital and GP services, to be able to provide the best care and support to our residents and their families.

Lincombe Manor could not have provided better care for our mother during her final days of life. She received the very best care from a dedicated staff. The lead nurse particularly, went over and above. showing love and compassion for both our mother and all her family. That meant so much. During our
mother’s final hours, we were able to be with her with no restrictions, the staff gave us space but also made sure we were fed, gave us free rein of the kitchen and made us feel like we were at home. Our mother loved the nurses and let us know that she was being well cared for. During her last hours she received gentle, kind care and the nurses provided appropriate pain management to ease her pain. We will never forget the staff surrounding her with their heads bowed, at her passing, so respectful! We cannot thank all those who care for her enough. As an old school nurse myself I’m hard to please but I couldn’t fault anything. Truly remarkable.
Another staff member was amazing too, thank you!

Reply from Nicola Grace, General Manager at Lincombe Manor Care Centre

What a truly touching review, it made me very emotional reading this. What a beautiful accolade to our team. Your review has made them truly proud. We always treat people with dignity and respect and like to make everyone feel welcome at Lincombe Manor. I am happy to hear that this is exactly how you were made to feel. It was our privilege to have cared for your mum.

My mother went into the home on Boxing Day 2023. The care that she received was so lovely and caring in every way. They would always ensure that her hair was done, washed and clean (she was a very glamorous woman) and dressed if able to receive guests, as she had so many. The respect they showed her
when she passed was perfect and not only did they look after her, they ensured we, the family, were looked after too - thank you all for your love and care.

Thank you for such a lovely review. It’s wonderful to hear that your experience was one of warmth and kindness. We always go the extra mile to make sure that everyone is made to feel welcome and I am pleased to see our efforts were appreciated by you all. We are very proud of the service we offer and the team will be bursting with pride when they read your kind words. Mum was with us for a short time, but during that time she made a lasting impact on us which we shall be forever grateful for.

A very homely welcoming care home - with very friendly and helpful staff. The manger helped immensely in securing my mother's place here, after she was diagnosed with terminal cancer. This offered my mum real security, at a time when it was vitally important, and she has made this her home now, enjoying
daily conversations with staff and taking part in some of the regular activities that are on offer here. The home is clean, well staffed, offers lots of good food choices, and is organised and well managed.
It has offered her many positives at a difficult time, and our family’s thanks go out to all the staff at Limcombe Manor. This is a wonderful home, location, and environment, that we highly recommend.

What a stunning review. You have made us all very proud of the work we do and how much we are appreciated by you and your loved ones. We absolutely love looking after Mum. She is the life and soul of the home and keeps us on our toes with her daily online shopping deliveries! We wouldn't be without her or you as a family. Thank you for all your kindness and support.

Mum arrived at Hewitt Lodge in April after struggling with her mobility post-hip fracture. Hewitt Lodge is part of the wider Lincombe Manor footprint; same management by the manager, some shared colleagues from Lincombe Manor and the same high standard of recruitment, catering, cleaning, but most importantly
of all, the same incredible standards of care, nursing, empathy, and individualised support.
I cannot speak highly enough of everyone in the manager's team. They are professional, caring, motivated, and care for the mind, body, and spirit.
Those staying at Hewitt Lodge are able to use the public areas and facilities at Lincombe Manor, all of which are well-maintained, elegant, and beautifully furnished.
Hewitt Lodge is unfortunately only a short-term Reablement Centre and in researching Mum’s next short-term move I visited a number of Care and Nursing homes in Torbay. None appear to achieve the top quality standards set by the manager across care, catering, hygiene, and accommodation.

Reply from Justine Thelwell, General Manager at Lincombe Manor Care Centre

Wow. What a wonderful review. This has made the team so proud. We loved looking after mum and getting to know you as a family. Hewitt do an incredible job in partnership with the NHS ICT team and we have a great success rate for rehabilitation. Your review tells us it works and we thank you for that. We all hope Mum has settled into her new home and is enjoying life to the full.

My mum moved into Lincombe Manor Care Home a few months ago and I couldn't be happier with how her care has taken shape. The staff are so caring and kind, I feel confident that mum is in the safest of hands. The facilities are wonderful, from the afternoon events - which provide essential stimulation
for Mum - to the food, hairdresser and even the laundry; all have 5-star ratings from me.
Management is excellent, being readily available to discuss mum's needs whenever necessary and then, of course, there's the location - sea views are a happy addition to all the other plusses for both the resident and the visitor.
As a regular visitor to Lincombe Manor, I have been made to feel very welcome, as has my dog, which has made visiting Mum all the more enjoyable.
Thank you to all at Lincombe Manor for making my mum's transition to a full-time care home resident a seamlessly happy one.

Hello. What a lovely review. Thank you for all your kind words. Lincombe is truly a special place and we are thrilled you enjoy your visits and can spend quality time with mum.

We look forward to seeing you soon especially as you bring along that gorgeous doggy for us to pet.

My mother has been a resident of Lincombe Manor for over four years and I cannot praise the staff enough. They are always warm, very kind, thoughtful, attentive and enthusiastic with my Mum. Her tea arrives each morning at just the right temperature, they feed her with care and patience and make sure
her favourite radio station is on in her room. Most often, she is enjoying activities upstairs. When I arrived this month, the residents were enjoying the talents of a local harpist playing beautiful music. The communal rooms are lovely, clean and bright with spectacular views.

Reply from Justine Thelwell, General Manager at Lincombe Manor Care Centre

You are so lovely to say such kind things about the team. They are truly committed to delivering person-centred care and your review shows them just how well they do it. We take pride in our well-being programme and tailor it specifically to the residents' choices and preferences. The harpist is a firm favourite and returns monthly by popular demand.

My husband has been here since January. He has severe physical problems and dementia. The nursing care he receives is excellent. All the staff are so kind and caring and always cheerful. The facilities are of a very high standard and the private rooms are very comfortable. There is an excellent range
of social activities almost daily. The food is very good and prepared for residents' individual needs.
I would have preferred to nurse my husband at home but when that was no longer possible, l could not have chosen a better care home.

She was so lucky to get a placement at Lincoln Manor and her room has a beautiful view of the gardens and the water. The staff are always welcoming and my aunt is full of praise for them too. I
could not wish for her to be in a better place, as it has been hard for auntie to accept that she could not return to her home. A big thank you to all the staff for an excellent standard of care and always with a smile.

My mother, who lived in an apartment next door to the care home, fell and was admitted the same morning into the care home. The Manager was very welcoming and was flexible whilst we saw whether mum recovered enough to return to independent living. She is now a long-term resident at the care home and
they look after her wonderfully well. It is such a relief to know she is safe and cared for by a very professional team.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.781)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.781) out of 10 for Lincombe Manor Care Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.781 for Lincombe Manor Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (300 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 351 Ratings = 4.781

  • b) 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 28 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 28 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

My name is Helen, and I am the Clinical Lead RN here at Lincombe Manor Care Centre. I began my nurse training in 1985, starting in hospital settings in Herefordshire, Lincolnshire and South Devon. I have always felt very blessed to be able to find a career which I feel so proud and passionate about.


I relocated back to South Devon from Lincolnshire in 2017, which is when I began my journey at Lincombe Manor Care Centre, progressing in my role from RN, to Senior RN and becoming Clinical lead in 2024.


Away from work, I enjoy walking in beautiful Devon. I love nature and its vast variety of birds and animals. That said, I am equally happy to sit in a café with a good book and a latte, on a rainy day.
