This is just a photo glance of what I observed and gained from the resident. We were welcomed at reception, signed in, hand care then plastic aprons, not quite sure of the need for these. We were then allowed to go through to see our resident friend. The place was warm and friendly. Our friend looked
well cared for including hair. She said all the care workers were warm and friendly and the meals good although she had no appetite. We had a lovely afternoon visit. The following week we were able to bring two of our elderly friends and we all had an enjoyable visit at the Manor House. Thank you for making this possible.

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

Hello. That is so kind of you. I am very happy you felt welcomed at Lincombe. More importantly that you could see your friend was well cared for and content. That means a lot to us. We look forward to welcoming you again.

On arrival, the staff were very welcoming and helpful, nothing too much trouble. The procedure for visits was carefully explained prior to our visit and all rules were complied with during our visits. The staff were very attentive to the friend that we visited.

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

Thank you for your kind words. I am pleased you found my staff welcoming and helpful. They do try hard to put everybody at ease. It can be a little daunting when first visiting a care facility. Hopefully when our activities are open to visitors as well as residents you can come and enjoy some of them with your friend. It would be lovely to meet you when you next visit.

Although our loved one has only been at Lincombe Manor for a short time, I cannot speak highly enough about the care and attention he has been given. From a negative prognosis in hospital, somehow this marvelous nursing home appears to have performed a miracle on him. He was incredibly weak, unable
to swallow, and had lost the will to live. In just a few short weeks he is so much stronger, looks forward to each delicious meal time, and most importantly has regained a zest for life. The staff are kind, caring and extremely helpful particularly in their support to relatives. We are extremely grateful to all at Lincombe Manor and will have no hesitation in recommending this beautiful nursing home to others.

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

What a wonderful review. I was so proud when I read it and I know my team will be thrilled with your words of praise. They truly care about everyone who lives at Lincombe and reviews like this make them realise how much they are appreciated. I am so looking forward to meeting you soon.

I had a great time when I visited my mother, it was very well organised, all the information about the covid was all up to date.
I come from Eastbourne so I had to book my place with Mum and everything was organised very well.
The lounge where I saw Mum was very well done with tables and chairs and
all that the residents need.

It was our first time at Lincombe Manor nursing home, we went there to meet up with my mother; who is at present a resident there, we found that everyone we came across from care staff to nurses very kind and very understanding, which takes a lot of pressure off when you know your loved one is being
looked after well.
My mother said she loves it there and finds all the staff very nice indeed, always laughing.
So I say yes, I would put your nursing home very highly recommended to anyone who needs to put a loved one in a home. Keep up the good work and a massive thank you for making my mum's stay with you as pleasant and nice as you are.

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

Thank you for such a lovely review. Our team do their very best to make sure everyone feels welcomed and well looked after so they will be thrilled when I tell them how pleased you were when you visited. Mum is settling in nicely and has a fabulous sense of humour. She keeps us all smiling through these gloomy rainy days we are having. I look forward to meeting you all soon and thank you for all your kindness and support.

My mother has been a resident for over 3 years and requires intensive nursing care. The professional care my mother has received has been exceptional and individualised to her needs and she is always treated with respect and compassion. I thank the staff for their unwavering dedication and personal
sacrifices made through an unprecedented time showing great resilience as a team. I would like to mention the manager's exceptional management, leadership and pragmatism and of course her sense of humour which has seen us all through. Covid protocols have been stringently adhered to and the appointment of the covid administrator demonstrates the home's commitment to safety. The covid administrator is professional and thorough in her approach and is valuable in providing a safe environment for all. I would wholly recommend the home without hesitation.

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

Goodness me, we are all bursting with pride reading your wonderful review. Mum is so dear to us and we are truly privileged that you have entrusted her care to us especially during this exceptionally challenging year. You and your sister have been nothing but 100% supportive of us from the very beginning and words cannot express how much that means to us. We cannot wait to let you all in again, spend quality time with Mum and have the freedom of the home. Thank you again from us all.

A very friendly and efficient system of testing when visiting eased any worries over Covid19. Extremely helpful member of staff to welcome you and prepare you before entering the home. Wonderful to be able to have a quiet hour with my mum.
Sadly, my mum has been unable to venture from her room due
to her illness, so I am unable to comment on the care home facilities.
However, people we know have always rated them highly.

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

Thank you for your lovely review. I am pleased you had a good experience when you visited. Mum. Yes, she is very frail and tires easily but it's wonderful you can spend some quiet time with her and enjoy each others company. Mum does look forward to your visits. Thank you for your kind words.

When my friend had a fall and was taken into hospital, part of his return was to go into a local care home and this was very stressfull for him and us. The homes he was put in were not the best. Shortly after this time we were going on holiday and for our peace of mind we asked our friend if he would
like to go into a care centre for respite care which he was happy with.
On our return and bringing him back to his own home he astounded us by saying he was so happy with the care and ambience of Lincombe Care Centre that he asked us to arrange for him to be put on the list to move there for good and sell his home for him.
That has been the best outcome and he is happy and we are too. He is well taken care of, when we visit he always looks smart and clean and well.

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

How lovely of you to say how happy and reassured you are that your friend is well cared for and content living with us. He is such a wonderful gentleman and always looks so smart when he takes gentle strolls around the home whistling his favourite tune. We cannot wait to welcome you all in again so we can celebrate together after what has been a long and arduous year for everyone. Your continued support throughout this very challenging time has been most inspiring.

My father has been a resident at Lincombe Manor for over a year now. He has been looked after extremely well and the staff are friendly, kind and caring. He has been kept very safe in what has been a tumultuous year for all of us. I am extremely impressed with the procedures in place to guard against
infection and transmission of the virus.
Lincombe Manor is in a superb location with spectacular views over Torbay. My father, once a very keen sailor, loves the views.
I have just returned from my first indoors visit for more than 12 months. I was very impressed with the protocol in place to test visitors, coach us in anti-infection processes and the provision of appropriate PPE.
Well done all at Lincombe!

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

You have made us all beam from ear to ear! We are so pleased you feel safe in the home and more importantly that you know Dad is safe. Dad is such a respected member of the community at Lincombe. He has taught us many things over this past year and we are lucky to have his wisdom to guide us. Dad was wonderful, tending to our summer sunflower competition so let's see what he can pull out the bag this year. It is lovely to see you all coming back inside. We feel a sense of normality is slowly returning. Thank you for all your support this year. It has been a challenge but made so much easier with families such as yourselves cheering us on. Thank you from all of us.

Highly recommend.

The rooms are comfortable, the staff friendly and efficient and despite the present situation, they make every effort

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.

I was appointed as General Manager of Lincombe Manor Care Centre in January 2024. I qualified as a General Nurse in January 2003 after completing my training in Exeter with the University of Plymouth. I remained in Exeter, working at The Nuffield Hospital as a junior nurse and at The Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital. I then joined the care sector which led me towards working as a Clinical Care Manager with Elizabeth Finn Homes for 10 years, which I thoroughly enjoyed.


Away from work, I live in Exeter with my husband and two children, Freya and Harrison. I enjoy horse riding, walking my two dogs and holidaying with my family.

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.
