Meet The Manager
Maria Browne is Manager at Langholme.
Located in the heart of Falmouth, Langholme care home is surrounded by beauty and history. Nestled on a lime tree-lined avenue near Pendennis Castle and Arwenack House, the home combines a tranquil setting with vibrant community links. Langholme is much more than a residential and dementia care home for up to 40 residents - it's a place to thrive.
Residents enjoy secure gardens, spacious lounges, day trip out, and two summerhouses for celebrations. Whether it’s the joy of a freshly baked Cornish pasty or the connection found during toddler group meetups, every day offers opportunities to create memories. With over an acre of greenery and a dedicated team, this care home in Falmouth is where personalised, 24-hour care feels like family, and life is celebrated in every moment.
