The History Of Eventide
Eventide has been providing Care in the North Cornwall area for over 70 years so you can imagine it has a very interesting history, going back to 1945. It is a far different place to what it was in 1945, but the basic principles have stayed the same. You can read about the history of Eventide HEREHERE
Welcome to Eventide Residential Home where we have been looking after our guests for over 70 years and plan to continue doing so for many years to come.
We are the only Non Profit Making Care Home in the area. In fact we are a registered charity, so money received is put back into the home to ensure that everyone gets the best care, in comfortable surroundings

My 99 year old father arrived at Eventide last May and settled in quickly. I felt very emotional and upset when I left him there but as I was leaving an elderly resident told me not to worry because no one would hurt or shout at him.

I was worried when mum had to go in a home but all the carers are brilliant and treat mum as their own. My mum is stuck in her ways, but they seem to understand her and nothing is too much trouble.

My mother chose Eventide as her home when at the age of 87 she could no longer live independently. The loving care she received over the next 15 years not only made mum happy but gave her family peace of mind to know that she was in a safe and happy environment.

Home Cooked Food
One thing that Eventide is famous for is our Home Cooked Food. We believe that the fact that our residents are no longer able to live in their own homes, their is no reason they should not have access to the best home cooked food.
All of our cooks are amazing, they make sure that our guests are fed wholesome healthy food with a lot of choice. They also cater for anyone with special dietary needs.
Activities
Here at Eventide we try to ensure we keep our residents minds active as well as trying to keep them as fit as possible. Weather permitting we also try to ensure, that trips out to various local venues are enjoyed. We prioritise keeping our residents happy as well as healthy.
