Care Homes Owned by Elder Homes Ltd in City of Edinburgh

All the staff are very attentive and nothing is too much trouble.The food is great and the social offerings are first class

Mum moved into Chamberlain Nursing Home in October 2026 for end of life care. A few days earlier we had been saying our goodbyes. Over the weeks and subsequent months, with the nursing homes excellent care, Mum gradually improved beyond our expectations. Mum's communication is very limited, however she appears very content and always smiling. She was able to convey also that 'staff' they're kind. My family and I are very happy with the kind of care she is receiving. Many thanks.

The food is good too and my mum enjoys a glass of wine too sometimes! There are lots of activities ranging from keep fit, music therapy to poetry and sherry. I can honestly say I believe Chamberlain is the best care home in Edinburgh and would recommend it !

Excellent standard of care in a friendly environment. The staff highly professional, working hard to ensure residents are settled and engaged in activities appropriate to them. Managers are always willing to discuss any queries and helpful in their replies.

Cluny Lodge provides an exceptional standard of care with excellent facilities. We cannot thank them enough for the care they have provided over the years for our aunt and uncle and the support they give to the whole family.

I enjoy the bus trips to all cafes and enjoy the picnics I go to all activities. Im very happy

Our dad has been much happier and healthier since moving to Cluny. He enjoys the company, the food is great and all of his needs are met to a high standard. We are so much more relaxed knowing he is safe and well looked after.

My mum was distraught at losing her independence and having to move into a nursing home. Everyone at Cluny Lodge worked incredibly hard to personalise her experience, listen to her, and accommodate her wishes. They were kind, professional, and willing and able to take time to chat and treat her as an individual. Everything is at a high standard - nursing and personal care, physiotherapy, catering, and the physical environment including the gardens. I am very happy to recommend Cluny Lodge to people I know.

Excellent home with caring staff.

Wonderful, caring and highly professional staff in a high quality and tranquil setting. We were very happy with the care that he received at Cluny Lodge.

My sister has improved by taking part in exercise classes, quizzes and songs of praise as part of mixing with other residents and staff. She is now able to sit out in a wheelchair and go shopping in near by shops and attend coffee mornings in the local church and church service in her own church. She is being well cared for and safe with kind people looking after her. She has a nice sunny room, facing south with her own pictures on the walls, reclining chair and tv. She is very happy.

My friend has had a new lease of life since she moved to Chamberlain Road Nursing Home. Her mobility has improved with the help of the in-house physiotherapists and staff. She now enjoys the exercise classes and particularly loves the quizzes I love taking her to the local shops and cafe's (ice cream is a firm favourite). Her room is bright and sunny and has tasteful decor. She has her own paintings and 'furry friends' and plants to make it feel very homely. The staff are so kind and patient with her and she has benefited greatly from the socialisation that the home provides. The food is beautiful and varied. I am very happy to know that she is in such a safe and nurturing environment. Thank you to all the staff at Chamberlain.

My mother has lived at Cluny Lodge for 9 months. I am delighted with the care and support she receives there. The staff team are warm and friendly and so attentive. They respect her desire to be as independent as possible and make her own choices while also gently encouraging her to keep active and involved. They are also proactive about finding the best way to manage my mum's pain or confusion. I'm kept well informed and consulted so I feel I know what's going on with my mum, even when she cannot remember herself. I can visit her any time and whenever I go in there's a gentle buzz of residents, staff and relatives around the shared spaces, with various activities happening throughout the day. Mum herself often says how lovely everything and everyone is at Cluny Lodge and, now that she cannot live at home any more, it's the next best thing to home.

My friend reluctantly moved into Cluny Lodge after 18 months of engaging with carer providers in her own home. She has not looked back since making the move. The care she now receives has been transformational to her quality of life and her physical and mental health.

My mum moved in to Chamberlain Road in mid-July 2025. At the time we felt it would be for end of life care but since arrival the change in her has been amazing. She is so happy & will tell you that she is well cared for, safe, warm & well fed. She loves all of the staff & is joining in in many activities & has even been on a few field trips. I could not be happier with the care my mum recieves. 5 star service across the board. The staff always have time to speak to me & always deal with my queries professionally & diligently.

Going into Cluny Lodge gave her the chance to continue with her hobbies in her last year, and we are incredibly grateful for the care and comfort she received. It also gave us all a chance just to be with her, enjoying her company and not have to look after her. She used to say to me you don't worry about me anymore do you? And I would say no. She thought of everyone at Cluny as her friends. We cannot thank you enough and there are too many names to mention here - a heartfelt thank you.

My mother spent her last ten months in Cluny Lodge where she was looked after with great care and compassion. Mum was a midwife and district nurse before she married and when I was a child she nursed both her mother-in law and her own father in their final illnesses, so she knew how caring should be done. She had nothing but praise for all the staff at Cluny Lodge and loved chatting to everyone she met there. What struck me on my visits was how much effort each member of staff put into getting to know my mother as an individual. It was only after Mum died that I heard about the physiotherapist urging another resident's visitor to take her baby granddaughter to visit my mother in her room, because the physiotherapist remembered how much my mother loved to see babies.

From start to finish, the care mum received at Cluny Lodge has been totally brilliant. Most importantly the patience and kindness of the staff has been first class - in her latter days she mentioned all her friends being around her and by that she meant the people who looked after her. She knew from visiting older friends there that if a care home was ever necessary it was the one she wanted to go to, and it was her decision to stay on following respite care. Says it all.

My experience has been very good. The staff are exceptional in their care, kindness and respect. I have no complaints.

My husband and I visited the Chamberlain in August as we were looking for respite care for my Dad. Lindsay met us at the door and was extremely friendly and welcoming. She showed us around the home and the room that they had set aside for Dad and explained the procedures regarding meal times, privacy, social events, etc. We left feeling elated that we had found somewhere that Dad would be happy to live there. All of the staff were amazing and went beyond their roles to ensure that Dad felt as happy as possible. They showered him if he didn't want to shower himself and left him, but were close by, he wanted to shower himself. Lesley is a master in persuading residents to join in the social events. The nurses, Lindsay, Anca, Gabriella and Lilli are all amazing and are there to help and encourage the residents in whatever they want. Dad was very sad to leave, as were we, but he had an amazing experience there and I would wholeheartedly recommend The Chamberlain and all of the staff there
