The Bungalow is a residential care home in Penzance, run by Corserv Solutions Ltd. It has 10 registered beds and supports older people, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism and people with a sensory impairment.

CQC rated it Good overall in November 2019, and Good in all five key questions. This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. Across Cornwall, 81% of the 194 rated care homes are Good or Outstanding. The rating is 6 years old. CQC decides when to re-inspect based on risk, so this isn't a mark against the home, but it's worth asking what has changed since.
