Rose Lawn, Sidmouth

Dear Georgie, Tina and all the staff,
I wanted to write and thank you so much for all the care, attention and affection you gave A. during her 15 years at Rose Lawn … My sister and I … are truly grateful for all your kindness … I know that Rose Lawn has a wonderful reputation – it can only be the staff that make it so, and your friendliness, warmth and care have been plainly visible on every visit. You are quite special.

With 29 en-suite rooms, Rose Lawn is one of our largest care homes.

The original part of Rose Lawn was constructed at the beginning of the 20^th century as a residential property. Significant investment has been made in 2 extensions in the last 20 years to accommodate the needs of this busy care home, and the site is now fully developed. The building has a high standard of décor and is well maintained. There is a very well-used conservatory at the front of the building.

Externally, Rose Lawn is painted rose pink and is known widely for this. The main feature of the front garden is the roses.

All rear ground floor bedrooms have their own patio and seating area with a view over Sidmouth Rugby Football grounds and in the distance the pristine local Bowling Green. Many rooms on the upper floors have a sea view.

Rose Lawn lies close to Sidmouth High Street with its many interesting and varied shops. Access to the High Street and sea front from the home is by way of level, flat roads. Sidmouth retains its Victorian charm – J.R.R. Tolkien spent his summer holidays here as a child.
