Not only does Torquay offer beautiful coastal views, but it also has a wide selection of care homes, with many of these benefitting from idyllic seaside settings. This is a wonderfully calming place to receive care, whether you’re looking for long-term residential care, support for a more complex condition such as dementia or Parkinson’s, or short-term rehabilitation after a hospital stay. You can find homes catering to these needs above, such as Mount Tryon, which is just a short walk from the water.
The facilities in Torquay care homes often reflect this relaxed coastal setting. Some feature conservatories with sea views, landscaped gardens filled with fragrant lavender and rosemary, or mini libraries curated by residents. Others include hydrotherapy suites, quiet lounges for reflection, and communal dining rooms where residents love socialising with each other, family and friends. You might find tai chi classes in the morning and baking groups in the afternoon, followed by live music or film nights. Homes like Belle Vue regularly host themed events catered to the interests and hobbies of residents.
If your loved one is searching for care and you want to continue being there for them, then family visits are well supported in homes here. Some offer dedicated guest suites for relatives, allowing for overnight stays. Shared lounges or private family rooms provide space for quiet conversations, birthday celebrations, or simply time spent together over a cup of tea.
