About The Check House

The Check House supports residents in Seaton through residential, nursing and dementia care, with respite and palliative care also available. Its purpose-built home provides comfortable bedrooms and welcoming communal spaces for daily life.

Residents can use the in-house hair and beauty salon, join arts and crafts, and receive support with mobility, personal care and medical needs. Care plans are reviewed as needs change. Respite stays can support recovery or give full-time carers a break, with a minimum stay of two weeks. Respite care has a two-week minimum stay, an important point for planning a short break.

Questions families ask

Is there a minimum stay for respite care?

Yes. Respite care has a minimum stay of two weeks, and the appropriate length of stay is assessed before admission.

What treatments are available at the in-house salon?

The salon offers hair washes, cuts, blowdries, manicures and pedicures. Additional treatments may be arranged subject to availability and extra costs.

Do they provide palliative care?

Yes. They provide palliative care for people approaching the end of life, with support focused on comfort and dignity for residents and their loved ones.

Can families take a virtual tour before choosing the home?

Yes. Families can tour the home in person, or request a virtual tour if they live too far away to visit.

How much does The Check House cost?

The CQC register does not list fees, so ask The Check House 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.
