New £13m care home set to open in Devon in January

A new £13m care home is under construction in Dawlish, Devon, and is set to create up to 75 jobs when it opens in January next year.

Maria Mallaband Care Group’s Claremont Manor will provide 71 en-suite bedrooms across three floors. The home will boast landscaped grounds with both private and shared patios, a hair & beauty salon, cinema, wellness suite, private dining room, and a grandchildren’s room to encourage multi-generational mixing.

Designed for residential, nursing, palliative, respite, and dementia care, Claremont Manor is being constructed by contractor Lawrence Baker Ltd with the interiors designed by Rebecca Hunter of Rebecca Hartley Interiors.

Claremont Manor is the latest home to be developed by the Maria Mallaband Care Group, which has over 80 care homes across the country. The group’s two recently opened homes, Chartwell Manor in Aylesbury and Lace Hill Manor in Buckingham, have created over 140 jobs.

Annelli Chatfield, group commissioning manager at Maria Mallaband Care Group, said: “Claremont Manor will ensure the local community has the opportunity to live in a luxurious environment that promotes personalisation and independence. This home is going to be something spectacular, from the design to the finishes and chef-curated menus.

“We know that there is a demand for more support from care homes, especially in Dawlish and the surrounding towns. Our sister home in Ottery St Mary, Kings Manor, also offers luxury living, great facilities and lifestyle-enhancing care, which is why we want to continue to offer this exceptional care service to the local community.”
