Welcome to Lincombe Manor
Opened in 2012, our Torquay care centre is a modern, purpose-built facility, expertly and thoughtfully designed to meet the needs of the residents.
We have 48 bedrooms, all with en-suite wet room facilities and flatscreen TVs. Communal areas offer a choice of tranquil settings, creating an important therapeutic atmosphere. Our quiet lounge offers calming space and light with wonderful panoramic sea views of the bay and a smart TV with internet access and Netflix. Our second communal lounge with sun room and terrace offers space to both relax and socialise; it too has a television and drinks facilities for residents and guests. All of our bedrooms can have looped hearing systems installed on request, and of course, professional 24-hour nursing and personal care are always on hand, from our friendly, expert team.
It’s the perfect choice for those in search of quality care, an active social life, comfortable surroundings and delicious home-cooked meals in a warm, welcoming environment.
A spectacular setting
Lincombe Manor is set in beautiful, mature grounds with breath-taking, panoramic sea views out over Torbay. At the heart of this relaxed and tranquil setting is the Manor House, a magnificent Grade II listed building, dating back to 1864.
Lincombe Manor is ideally positioned in the much sought-after area of the Lincombes, just one mile from Torquay town centre. Torquay itself is part of the stunning ‘English Riviera’, which also includes Paignton and Brixham. The English Riviera is a resort in the truest sense of the word, attracting people of all ages and interests. Torquay has recently undergone a water-front regeneration, and a number of new attractions can be seen in Torquay. It’s a true English seaside town that has something for everyone.
It was the Victorians who first used the English Riviera name to describe their favourite resort and their legacy remains to this day, with sparkling white buildings perched on the verdant hilltops, beautiful gardens around the seafront and elegant Victorian facades along the main streets. Torquay’s famous seven hills provide the backdrop to a waterfront scene that matches anything you’ll find on the French Riviera. Author Agatha Christie found the area inspirational for her work.

The programme caters to a wide range of needs and abilities, so anyone can participate.
Food & drink
Lincombe Manor Care Centre recognises that, for many of us, the enjoyment of good food is an important part of our lives. Our restaurant quality food is freshly cooked-to-order and prepared with care.
Our team of chefs do their utmost to accommodate the residents’ wishes through the preparation of mouth-watering meals, using the freshest ingredients, seasonal produce and local suppliers wherever possible.
The menu choices change constantly and include many traditional dishes whilst also encouraging you to sample a variety of new tastes which you may not have had the opportunity of experiencing before. We also encourage you to make suggestions as to the meals that should be available via surveys and chefs visiting you in your rooms.
Particular attention is given to the nutritional requirements of each resident. We will cater for your special and therapeutic diets, as advised by health care professionals and agreed in each resident’s plan of care. We are able to arrange special meals, such as diabetic, halal, vegetarian, and gluten-free, and we are trained in the modification of diet and fluids in order to keep you safe.
Breakfast, lunch, and supper can be served in the dining room or in the comfort of your own room. Morning coffees, and afternoon tea with a selection of our homemade cakes and pastries, are available in the sitting rooms or can also be delivered to your room. Tea, coffee and soft drinks are freely available at any time, and visitors are welcome to join you for meals or to simply chat over a cup of tea or coffee.
Birthday parties and other celebrated events are deemed extremely important. Our chefs and well-being lead are always delighted to meet with you and discuss arrangements, and to assist in any way they can.
