CQC hasn't inspected this home for more than 5 years. It re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating doesn't count against a home on this site, but it may not reflect the home today. ?
Castle House is one of 306 care homes in Devon: a 33-bed residential care home in Torrington, run by Cherry Garden Properties Limited. Its CQC registration covers older people, younger adults and people with a physical disability.
Its CQC rating, from February 2020, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. Its rating before that, in July 2017, was the same. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 51% of ratings in Devon are as old (how rating age varies by council).
Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in July 2026. That is true of 86% of homes in Devon. In Devon, 90% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Cherry Garden Properties Limited runs 3 care homes, and all 3 rated are Good or Outstanding. None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating.
