Ash House

Ash House is a home care agency based in Taunton, in the Somerset council area, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 6 miles of its Taunton office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people, people living with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a sensory impairment. It is part of Age, which has 15 branches in England. The agency has been registered since June 2011.

At its latest inspection, published July 2026, the CQC rated Ash House Good, which means the CQC found the service performing well and meeting its expectations. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.
