Exmouth’s coastal setting makes it a naturally calming place for receiving care in later life. Considered one of the most desirable places to live in Devon, many homes here provide specialist support for conditions such as dementia and Parkinson’s disease. They also focus on post-operative recovery and long-term residential care - ideal for those who require a tailored and attentive approach to everyday living.
What sets Exmouth apart is its integration with the wider healthcare network. Most homes maintain close links with Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital and community GPs, ensuring quick access to clinical support and continuity of care - especially beneficial for residents with complex health conditions or those transitioning from hospital care.
Aside from first-class care, many homes here have elegant interiors, bright lounges, sea-facing gardens, and spa-style bathrooms. Residents enjoy freshly prepared meals, personalised care plans, and other on-site facilities such as hair salons, therapy suites, and activity rooms. Raleigh Manor and Fernihurst are two local homes known for their premium facilities and services.
For families, visiting is made easy with options such as overnight guest rooms, flexible hours, and lounges set aside for private celebrations or quiet catch-ups. Many homes in Exmouth are also designed with couples in mind, offering linked suites or dual care plans that support shared living, without compromising individual needs.
