Hamelin

A spacious split-level bungalow sitting at the top of a private tree lined drive in Totnes

Our Ethos

Community life is… everybody knowing each other and working together, being there for one another, as opposed to just getting lost in society.

About Hamelin

Hamelin is a spacious split-level bungalow sitting at the top of a private tree lined drive in its own gardens and located in pleasant suburban Totnes. It is situated on the high ground adjacent to the castle, just a short walk from the shops and enjoys a secluded position in a quiet area.

The garden and tree lined boundaries which surrounded the house on all sides give a very pleasing outlook and all windows access garden or patio views which are enhanced by the natural slope of the land and the subsequent views across rural Devon.

Hamelin Benefits from two large communal rooms in the form of a large living room, which has a flat screen television and comfortable leather sofas. In the corner of the living room a door leads into the annex where the second large room is a natural resource for group activities, which include art and music, there is a piano and various other musical instruments available.

There are seven bedrooms for service users at Hamelin with two of them being en-suite. There are also three staff bedrooms, an office and a medication room.

The house is large, yet all areas within easy reach. It is modern, well founded and airy, providing cool respite in summer, yet heated and cosy in winter.

All rooms exceed Care Standards size requirements and are single occupancy. People who live with us are encouraged to personalise their rooms and every effort is made to offer a comfortable and homely environment.

CQC House Rating: Good

I never cease to be amazed at the transformation in a period of about six weeks when a new resident joins the house.
