About Ashdowne Care Centre
Here at Ashdowne Care Centre, we are a nursing home based in the heart of Tiverton, Devon, and we are proud to offer a genuinely caring and supportive environment for the people who come to live with us or stay with us for a short time. We support older adults across a range of needs, including nursing care, dementia care, and mental health conditions. We also offer respite care for those who need a temporary stay, whether that is to recover after a hospital admission or to give a family carer a much needed break. Whatever brings someone to our door, we do our best to make sure they feel welcome, comfortable, and genuinely looked after from the very first day. Our team in Tiverton knows the local community well, and many of us have worked in care for a long time. We take the time to get to know each person as an individual, understanding their routines, their preferences, and what matters most to them. For those living with dementia or mental health conditions, that kind of thoughtful, person centred approach makes a real difference to daily life. We are pleased that our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission resulted in an overall rating of Good. That reflects the hard work of everyone here, and it encourages us to keep raising the bar in everything we do. If you are looking for nursing or residential care in the Tiverton area, either for yourself or someone you care about, we would love to hear from you. We are always happy to arrange a visit, answer your questions, and help you understand whether Ashdowne Care Centre might be the right fit.
