Brief description

Gittisham Hill House is a Care Home near Honiton, Devon. The Registered Provider is Gittisham Care Limited.

The home consists of two parts, the original country house and two purpose built extensions connected by a link corridor.

It provides accommodation for 30 older people mostly needing care because of dementia. They are supported by the Alzheimer Society, and are members of the Registered Nursing Homes Association, although they do not provide nursing care.
 
The majority of rooms are single.

The accommodation is on two levels, the second being reached by a chair lift. The grounds are spacious and the woodland is attractive. In the grounds are 'close care' bungalows not registered with the Commission.
