Tour Our Accommodation
Our bedrooms
Clovelly House has 20 rooms, single bedrooms come as standard but there are a few rooms which can accommodate a couple or life-long friends. Most bedrooms are en-suite and all bathrooms are equipped with specialist features that are designed to meet the needs of our residents. In addition to this, many residents have access to their own balcony or veranda which are lovely to use on a summer's evening. We provide all furnishings for our rooms but welcome residents to bring any furniture, ornaments or photos that they would like in order for them to feel more at home whilst staying at Clovelly House.
Our Social Areas
We have two lounges in the care home where residents may socialise. Our front lounge has high ceilings and period features, it is a busy meeting place where residents enjoy cups of tea by the fire and multiple activities such as exercise classes and arts & crafts. Our second lounge is placed at the rear of the house with French doors that open onto Clovelly House’s gardens. This is an ideal lounge for some quiet time or for a more private, personal chat with relatives and friends. We also find this room is the best place to host our singers and musical entertainment who visit regularly to perform for our residents.
The dining room overlooks the front of the property, it is a lovely space where residents can share conversation and enjoy their meals with a glass of wine or other refreshment.

The Gardens
Clovelly House is situated within extensive, well maintained mature gardens, loved and nurtured by our gardener who maintains the gardens on a weekly basis. They ensure that the gardens look beautiful all year around and are accessible for all, with decking and patios where residents may enjoy tea and cake or a glass of lemonade on a nice summer's day.
Other
Clovelly House has a passenger lift which means the whole house is accessible for everyone with different mobility needs. CCTV is also fitted in communal areas of the house.
Beauty & Wellness Cabin
Our most recent addition to the gardens is the beauty and wellness cabin; ran by Lauren Siddons, owner of Be Fabulous. Her business adds that extra little bit of glam to our care home. Residents and relatives are encouraged to visit the cabin. Lauren has a range of beauty treatments available from manicures, massages and facials, meaning the residents can enjoy that little bit of extra pampering at the end of the garden path. Residents and their relatives all receive an automatic 10% discount when using Be Fabulous’ facilities Lauren also often comes into the care home to give the residents manicures as well.
