and compassionate and Mum felt at home from the start.
The newly appointed manager is amazing. He very quickly got to know all the residents quirks and amongst other improvements he has implemented new activities to support their interests. Mum is now playing Bridge again after a 2 year absence. He is quietly very hands-on and present on a day to day basis.
The whole team is exceptional.

Any request for help or action was dealt with positively, quickly and efficiently by all staff.
Glencairn is a real home from home, and Dad came to see it as such, with friendships developed with both Staff and Residents. The wide range of activities offered covered the interests of everybody. Meals and snacks were of a high standard and offered generously to visitors as well as Residents, and it was special to be able to participate occasionally at meal times.
I can only be thankful for the care Dad received, Glencairn is a lovely care home and I wish the team every success in continuing to provide such a warm and inclusive environment

family. The convivial atmosphere embraces the whole establishment, with both staff and residents conveying heartwarming greetings.
This is not an old people's home. It is a haven of characters, personalities and friends who convey an ambience as comfortable as sinking into one’s favourite armchair. It has been a relief to witness my father regaining a semblance of the happy person he was before suffering two-and-a-half months of hospital admission.

always very welcoming and caring and also very patient. They seem to do their best to keep the residents happy and entertained. My mother particularly enjoys playing scrabble.

said the food was excellent with a good choice and more than enough. She loved her room and it was very clean and comfortable. The other residents were friendly and there were activities to join in if you wished but there was no pressure.
We can not fault the staff they all treated her and us alike with great love kindness and respect. Other family members and friends that visited mum all commented on the lovely friendly atmosphere.
We were so happy and pleased with everything (Mum as well) that we are now considering Montrose as a permanent home for her. Thank you again, Montrose.

'open door' policy and are extremely approachable. They are reactive to comments and strive to achieve the highest standards of care. There is an activity programme in the week, with trips out to the market when weather permits. Food is all home cooked and looks delicious.

for her with compassion and dignity. Their 'open door' policy welcomed all her visitors from very young children running around to older friends and family. I couldn't have wished for a nicer place for her to be in her final years and caring staff going that extra mile even in their own time.
