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. ?
Eastleigh Care Homes is an independent 54-bed residential care home in South Molton, Devon, registered with CQC under its own name. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism and people with a sensory impairment. That is larger than most homes in Devon, where the typical home has 25 beds.
Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 4 out of 5 in May 2026. In Devon, 86% of homes score 5. 20 other homes in Devon share its tier, “Outstanding”. It is the only Outstanding home among the 7 closest.
The current CQC rating is Outstanding, published in August 2019. Effective and responsive were also Outstanding. CQC rated safe, caring and well-led as Good. Its previous rating, in December 2016, was Good, so the home has improved. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 51% of homes in Devon. Here is how rating age varies by council.
