About Us

Tamar House is a purpose built home providing exceptional levels of residential care on the Northern edge of Plymouth.
Built in 1987, this two-storey building is conveniently located in Derriford, close to the hospital, transport routes and other amenities.

Tamar House provides a caring home for 29 residents who all enjoy their own private rooms. The vast majority of rooms have private en-suite toilet facilities, with bathing, showering and further toilet facilities being conveniently located on each floor. There are a number of comfortable communal areas for residents and a welcoming dining room on the ground floor. Tamar House is fully accessible to service users with physical disabilities with a lift, and a stair lift, between floors.

We also offer short stay respite from 1 week to 8 weeks.
