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. ?
Orchard Lea is one of 306 care homes in Devon: a 37-bed residential care home in Cullompton, run by Orchard Homes Private Limited. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia, people with a physical disability, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment.
Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. 188 other homes in Devon share its tier, “Good”. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in November 2025. 86% of homes in Devon also score 5.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in August 2021. Before that, in December 2019, it was rated Requires improvement. 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.
