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. ?
Lyndale Residential Home is a 15-bed residential care home in Tavistock, Devon, run by Lyndale Care Limited. It is registered to care for people with mental health needs and people detained under the Mental Health Act. It is a small home for Devon, where the median is 25 beds.
In January 2019, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in May 2016. 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.
The nearest home with a higher rating is Tregarland (Outstanding), 0.7 km away. In Devon, 90% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in January 2026. That is true of 86% of homes in Devon.
