About Arundel House

Arundel House is a residential care home in Devon, offering a place where people can feel supported and at home in familiar surroundings. The team there is committed to getting to know each resident as an individual, making sure day-to-day life feels as comfortable and personal as possible. For families exploring care options in the area, it can be reassuring to know that Arundel House focuses on providing a genuine sense of community for the people who live there.

Arundel House provides residential care and personal support for people with mental health needs in a large Victorian property spread over three floors with outside space. The home accommodates up to 15 people, with 13 residents at the time of inspection. Most residents share communal bathrooms, though some have their own, and the home features a communal lounge and separate dining room.

Inspectors identified significant concerns around safety. People were not always kept safe from fire-related risks, and inspectors were not assured the provider was promoting adequate safety through hygiene practices for the premises. These findings suggest the home needs to strengthen its approach to fire safety procedures and cleaning standards to ensure residents' wellbeing.
