Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 4 good, 29 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. ?
CQC's register shows no registered manager for this home. Every care home must have one. The home may be recruiting, or a new manager may be applying to CQC. ?
Anne Gray Care Limited runs The Larches - Tiverton, a residential care home in Tiverton, Devon with room for 20 residents. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia and people with a physical disability.
St George's House, 1.3 km away, is the closest home rated Requires improvement. There is no registered manager on CQC's register right now. Across Devon, 90% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England.
CQC's latest rating, from June 2026, is Inadequate overall. Safe, effective and well-led were also Inadequate. Caring and responsive were rated Requires improvement. Its previous rating, in August 2023, was Requires improvement, so the home has slipped. That is more recent than most ratings in Devon, where the typical rating is about 5 years old. CQC found significant shortfalls in “workforce wellbeing and enablement”, one of 29 standards out of 33 scored below good.
