About Pilton House Trust
Residential care at Pilton House supports people over 65, with particular experience in dementia care, physical frailty and related support needs. The Georgian mansion accommodates 28 people in single rooms, most with en-suite facilities and call bells, while care and support plans are reviewed monthly or more often when needed.
Residents can choose when to get up, sleep, eat and join activities. A dedicated activities team runs individual and group sessions seven days a week, while meals include daily choices and provision for special diets. The home also offers day care and respite stays, with family visits welcomed at any time.

How much does Pilton House Trust cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Pilton House Trust for its weekly fee. As a guide, Devon council paid on average £1,043 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
