In recent years, it has been refurbished with tasteful, modern decoration, but is still surrounded by the same glorious acres of countryside. It is just a 10-minute drive into the town of Taunton, Somerset, where residents can access shops, amenities, and a railway station.
Our ever-popular Gotton Manor Care Home is able to care for 31 residents, including those who require round the clock general nursing care and those who feel the impact of dementia on their daily lives, requiring specialist care.

Hello, my name is Janine. I am the Home Manager at Gotton Manor Care Home.
I started my career in care over 20 years ago, working as a care assistant in a local nursing home. Over the years, I have worked in community care, nursing homes, and residential homes, and whilst I worked for a care agency, I did HCA shifts in hospitals and hospices.
I have put my all into working my way up the ranks and I have been working in supervisory and Deputy Managers posts over the last 10 years.
