About Us

We at Pinhay House Residential Care Home offer a warm and welcoming residential care setting in Lyme Regis, where compassionate support for older people, including those living with dementia, sits at the heart of everything we do. Our home is a place where residents can feel safe, valued, and truly at ease.

Nestled within the beautiful Devon countryside on the edge of Lyme Regis, our home enjoys a peaceful location in the South West that offers residents the calm and natural beauty of coastal Dorset and Devon. The DT postcode area is renowned for its scenic charm, and our setting provides a tranquil backdrop where residents can enjoy a sense of space, comfort, and connection to the surrounding environment.

Our specialisms in older person care, residential care, and dementia care mean that we are well placed to support a wide range of needs. For residents, this translates into daily life that is shaped around individual preferences, routines, and personal histories. Whether someone requires gentle assistance with everyday tasks or more tailored support for living with dementia, our approach is centred on dignity, respect, and the wellbeing of each person in our care. For families, it means peace of mind, knowing that their loved one is being looked after by a team that understands the importance of patience, familiarity, and genuine human connection. We believe that good care is built upon strong relationships, and we take time to get to know each resident as an individual, celebrating who they are and supporting them to live as fully as possible.

Our home has been rated Good overall by the Care Quality Commission following its most recent inspection in June 2021, with Good ratings across the Safe, Effective, Caring, and Well-led domains. The Responsive domain was rated as Requires Improvement, and we view this as an honest reflection that helps guide our continued commitment to listening, learning, and refining the way we tailor care to each resident. The overall Good rating reflects the warmth, professionalism, and dedication that families can expect when they choose Pinhay House.

Choosing a care home is one of the most important decisions a family can make, and we understand the care, thought, and emotion that goes into that journey. If you are exploring options for a loved one in Lyme Regis or the wider Devon area, we warmly invite you to get in touch, ask questions, and discover whether our home could be the right place to call home.
