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. ?
Pilton House Trust is a 28-bed residential care home in Barnstaple, Devon. The home is its own registered provider. 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.
In February 2018, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. That matches its previous rating, from October 2015. 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.
Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in February 2026. That is true of 86% of homes in Devon. Across Devon, 90% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating.
