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. ?
Woodland Healthcare Limited runs Garden House, a residential care home in Torquay, Torbay with room for 30 residents. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia, people with mental health needs and people detained under the Mental Health Act.
Its CQC rating, from June 2019, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. Its rating before that, in November 2016, was the same. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 27% of homes in Torbay. Here is how rating age varies by council.
45 other homes in Torbay share its tier, “Good”. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in December 2025. That is true of 83% of homes in Torbay. It is one of 6 homes run by Woodland Healthcare Limited. 2 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating.
