My aunt moved in at the end of 2025 and it has been the best decision we could have made. She settled very quickly and the care she has received has been exemplary. The staff has taken time to get to know her and her interests.
Reply from Asa Kitching, Manager at Marian HouseThank you for your review. It is a big change coming into care and I'm please that your aunt has settled into the home so well.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have no hesitation in recommending Marian House to anyone with a relative who has care needs. Having been through the process of assessment and admission with both parents I can assure any reader that the process was made as simple as possible and was handled in a highly caring and compassionate manner.
I cannot fault the level of care my parents have received at Marian House. There is a genuine warmth, the staff are clearly of very high quality and I am continually impressed by how personalised the care experience is. Any queries are handled efficiently and professionally by management. Our family would highly recommend Marian House.
Reply from Asa Kitching, Manager at Marian HouseThank you for taking time to do this review. It is warming that you find the care personalised and the staff of high quality. It is a big step coming into care and we strive to making that journey as "easy" as possible.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum has been in Marian house for 18 months. Her physical and mental health have improved due to the excellent care. Marian house always feels well organised, with everyone clearly understanding their role. All staff are friendly, kind, compassionate and skilled in their care of my mother. She quickly
felt safe and well cared for and is happy to refer to it as home.
There are a range of excellent activities, including the wonderful craft cafe, and a beautiful, quiet sun trap of a back garden.
Reply from Asa Kitching, Manager at Marian HouseThank you for your review and it makes me so happy to know that mum is referring to Marian house as home. That is really the best feedback one can receive.

St Raphael's has been a warm & welcoming new home for me and I greatly appreciate their care. There is a wide range of activites including regular outings staff are always kind and helpful. The food service is transitioning from an in house chef to bought in prepare meals for lunch & dinner. There are
teething issues - portion size (too small), lack of variety on menu and short notice changes. However, the team are engaging with residents to improve issues.
Reply from Jeannie Garing, Care Home Manager at St Raphael'sThank you for your supportive review. The staff strive to make sure that new residents are made to feel welcome and well cared for. It is good to hear that you are enjoying the social activities and outings. We will continue to engage with the residents as we transition to the new food delivery service to ensure it meets the high standards you all deserve.

Marian House

from Ruth M (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 January 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum was in Marian House for six years, until she died early January this year.
Everything about the home is really excellent, and I cannot fault it in any way.
The care Mum received throughout the six years was first class (including being treated with utmost dignity and respect at all times).
She was always clean, dressed as well as she would have wanted and her hair almost always looked immaculate (only exceptions to this were really when the hairdresser was unable to attend unexpectedly). The staff were good at spending time with Mum and taking her off to activities. I was informed every Monday of the weekly activities programme. The app was such a helpful platform, enabling me to see almost hour by hour what care interventions there had been.
The end-of-life care extended to Mum (and indeed to us as family) was quite exceptional, for which we were hugely grateful and will never forget.
We would thoroughly recommend Marian House.
Reply from Asa Kitching, Manager at Marian HouseThank you for such a wonderful review. It was our pleasure caring for your mum and she will be greatly missed.

St Raphael's

from David B (Brother of Resident) published on 8 January 2026 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My sister developed early onset dementia and moved into St Raphaels in 2015. The level of loving care she was provided with exceeded anything I could have wished for. She was initially living in the specialist dementia wing, where the staff fully understood her condition and treated her with dignity
and understanding. As her condition worsened she moved into the main house where she has lived for the last five years. Not once has she experienced any bed sores despite being bed ridden for the last few years. I can not thank the nursing staff enough for what this means for Chris and her family.
Reply from Jeannie Garing, Care Home Manager at St Raphael'sHi David,

Thank you for your review and appreciation of the staff who cared for your sister. It was a pleasure to support her for all the years she lived here. Our staff aspire to always maintain high standards and very much appreciate it when this is acknowledged by family and friends.

Daughter-in-Law: St. Raphael's has a very strong art program. The program runs Tues, Wed, Thurs by a capable and patient staff. The teachers meet the residents whatever their skill level. They are very experienced and change tactics to best assist the resident. I think this program is unique and helps
keep residents mentally active.
Reply from Jeannie Garing, Care Home Manager at St Raphael'sHi Cristina,
Thank you for the review. The Craft Cafe is a fantastic resource for our residents and they produce some very special art work. The staff enjoyed meeting you on your visit to Edinburgh and hope you enjoyed seeing your mother-in law settled and happy in our care home.

We chose this care home for my mum in late 2023 because of its great reputation. I'm pleased to say that Marian House has lived up to our hopes & expectations and more.
The care delivered is very friendly & person centred - staff know the likes/dislikes, preferences of all their residents. High standards

All in all, highly recommended.

Marian House

from Jacqui R (Daughter of Resident) published on 13 May 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother lived for years on her own in a flat. After experiencing several incidents, we realised she was unable to safely care for herself and needed to move into a home. I did some extensive research and decided that Marion House was the best place for her. She has always loved gardens, and the
garden and outlook at Marian House is gorgeous.
She has now been there for 2 years and the care she receives is fantastic. I live in South Africa and have to say that before she moved, I was always worried about her. She is now in a warm, loving and caring environment.
The staff are very good at keeping me updated about her condition and are always happy to respond to any queries I have.
All in all, I think it's the best decision we ever made, and I am thrilled with the care she receives.

Mum moved to St Raphael's in 2023. She had advanced dementia and was treated with dignity and respect. The activity coordinators and staff made sure that she was stimulated and her interests met. She was a regular visitor of the cafe where the staff were extremely welcoming. She enjoyed the musical
activities offered and outings. During her palliative care, the staff were amazing. They were kind and caring, spending time with mum and the family, making sure mum was comfortable and we were supported. St Raphael's has an excellent management team who know their residents and have regular meetings with relation to keep them informed and to ensure they offer a high level of care. I highly recommend St Raphael's

I would highly recommend St Raphael's Nursing Home. Up till just recently, my relative was being cared for by the staff in the Rutland unit who absolutely went above and beyond to care for her needs which they carried out 110% with the utmost care, respect, compassion and professionalism. I will never
forget the comfort and support they all showed me personally and how well they took care of my relative throughout her time there. I will never forget what they did not only for my relative but for me through her palliative care they were a huge comfort to me and showed both of us such love and care. Thank you so much you will all have a special place in my heart for what you have done.
Reply from Jeannie Garing, Care Home Manager at St Raphael'sThank you for your review.

My husband moved from the family home into Marian House a few months ago. Due to his condition, he didn't settle well at first but the staff were so caring and patient with him. He now says that they are 'lovely people' and I am relieved and happy to report that he is settling into his new home.
The
care home is spotlessly clean and the food is excellent with a choice of meals to suit all tastes.
A warm and friendly ambiance greets you when you enter and the staff are always ready to answer any queries you may have. The garden to the rear is very attractive and the perfect spot in which to relax on a sunny day.
We are delighted with the care our loved one receives in Marian House.
Reply from Esther Bathgate, Head Of Care at Marian HouseHi, thank you for your wonderful review. I am so pleased that the care home environment, the food, and the staff are pleasant and welcoming.

The care provided is exemplary in every way. No complaints whatsoever. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff who are friendly and extremely attentive and caring. Most of the staff have been in the home for some time which is always a good sign. The decoration of the rooms and public areas is spotlessly
clean and there are no untoward smells anywhere. There is a regular activity programme which is published in advance each week. There is excellent medical support from a local GP practice and ophthalmic and dental support is available.

It has been 3 months since my husband moved into Marian House. The most wonderful aspect of this care home is its staff. All staff are very friendly, helpful and conscientious and compassionate. They really work very hard to make residents happy and comfortable. I cannot thank them enough for working
tirelessly to look after my husband. Furthermore, the most attractive feature of Marian House is its mature garden. On a sunny day, residents and their relatives can enjoy strolling the garden. On such a fine day, animals including Alpacas, Shetland ponies, pigmy goats, and guinea pigs came to visit residents. I was truly astonished to find them in the courtyard. Marian House also welcomes visitors by pets as well. My husband appreciates a regular visit by his pet cat. It makes all the difference to him. I would like to end my review with my heartfelt gratitude to all the members of staff.
Reply from Esther Bathgate, Head Of Care at Marian HouseThank you so much for this wonderful review. From our viewpoint, we are pleased to be reviewed that the care in Marian House is exceptional and the environment is enjoyed by everyone, service users, families, and other visitors alike.

My aunt moved to St Raphael's 6 months ago. We had looked at St Raphael's a number of times but she declined to go. Deputy Manager very patient and understanding through these many visits. Finally, last October, Deputy Manager found us a perfect room and in a few days my aunt moved in. We were greeted
by a lovely, friendly nurse who handles intake, she immediately put my aunt at ease. I live quite some distance and every time I phone my aunt is pleased. Staff have been communicative when issues have arisen (falls, new meds, etc.) which has been comforting. All staff have been pleasant, welcoming, professional and friendly. Couldn't be happier.
Reply from Esther Bathgate, Head Of Care at St Raphael'sThank you so much for this wonderful review. Finding a suitable care home that both the person in care and family agrees to is not an easy journey. I am delighted to hear that staff at St R made this easy and they continue to do so.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My sister has been a resident at Marian House since early 2024 and I was very apprehensive about her settling in. I needn't have worried as the staff were so welcoming and friendly and had hung all her favourite pictures beautifully to make her room very homely.
Marian House is a lovely airy light-filled
building inside and it wraps around a well-kept sunny courtyard garden. My sister's room looks out on this space and I know it gives her a lot of pleasure as do her little forays out there.
The staff are very understanding about her need to have a little independence and don't interfere with that. I think things could have been very different in a place where a more rigid approach was taken.
There are also lots of activities my sister can take or leave as she feels inclined.
So all in all she is happy and content in a difficult health situation thanks to the care and kindness of the staff of Marian House who really couldn't try harder.
Reply from Esther Bathgate, Head Of Care at Marian HouseThank you for taking the time to give us such a great review. At viewpoint, we are so delighted that your sister has found a new home where she can be herself and continue to do the little things that bring her joy and maintain her independence at the same time. This feedback will be shared with the staff at Marian House.

We will be forever grateful to Marion House in accepting our mum into their beautiful nursing home. It had a peaceful and calming atmosphere from the first minute we entered. The Marion House staff have gone above and beyond to make sure Mum has everything that she needs to help her have some independence
back, they have managed to get Mum to walk with help where she has not done since her operation. Mum has quickly settled into Marion House and is happier in there than when she was at home with carers. Mum talks about the delicious meals and tells us she likes staying in the home. This is all due to the experienced staff who show so much patience, kindness, love and first-class care to our mum. Marion House probably don’t need any reviews but sometimes it’s nice to hear that all the staff there are all doing such a fantastic job making my mum very happy and giving her first-class care, so I thank all of the staff and we will be forever grateful to them all.
Reply from Esther Bathgate, Head Of Care at Marian HouseThank you so much for this wonderful review.

Dad has been a resident since December 2023. He has been very well looked after by the team at St Raphael’s and they have worked hard to give him personalised care.
He enjoys the meals, the wine and the social activities, including the craft cafe, even though he is severely sight impaired.
When he
was unwell with delirium, the team went the extra mile to look after him, supported by the local Hospital at Home team.
We would recommend the home to anyone who is needing 24-hour care, as he now does.
