Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 29 good, 3 exceptional, 1 below good. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
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. ?
Stallcombe House is an independent 33-bed residential care home in Exeter, Devon, registered with CQC under its own name. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment.
In August 2025, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. That matches its previous rating, from May 2022. The typical rating in Devon is about 5 years old, so this one is fairly recent. CQC found some shortfalls in “workforce wellbeing and enablement”, one of 1 standards out of 33 scored below good.
188 other homes in Devon share its tier, “Good”. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in July 2025. That is true of 86% of homes in Devon. About 3.2 km away, Hillside House is rated Outstanding.
