Tigh Na Muirn Care Home, nestled within the serene seaside town of Monifieth, seamlessly marries the elegance of tradition with the conveniences of modern living. As you step through its doors, you’ll find a warm embrace of time-honoured charm. Yet, this isn’t a mere relic of the past; it’s a place where superior standards prevail supported by the latest technology.
The guest rooms, thoughtfully designed, offer a choice: all are en-suite for those who seek a private retreat, or perhaps a double room for companionship. Each room whispers tales of comfort — the softness of bed linens, the gentle glow of bedside lamps, and the promise of restful nights.
The dining experience, from the home cooked meals to silver service, is sure to remind you of hotel comfort. And for those that enjoy the outdoors, the lovingly tended communal outdoor spaces offer a choice of seating areas and the option to tend to home grown plants and vegetables, while the garden wing also offers individual patio garden spaces.
But it’s not just about aesthetics; it’s about care. Tigh Na Muirn is family-owned and operated, and their experienced team brings a wealth of skills and genuine compassion. An emergency call system ensures safety, while three separate lounge areas provide spaces for relaxation and socialisation. And yes, there are lifts — because accessibility matters.
So, whether you’re enjoying a glass of wine in the bar or strolling through the well-tended gardens, Tigh Na Muirn whispers a promise: tradition and modernity intertwine, creating a haven for those seeking comfort, companionship, and a place to call home.

14 weeks later...
14 weeks later he couldn't walk was in XL clothes, was sick all the time, his body was a mess with sores and blisters, he was being given food he wasn't allowed to eat, I could go on.
Once admitted to the care home. Within a week he was sitting watching TV in his room, attending the weekly entertainment sessions they have on for the residents, and he was eating the special food that was made for him.
Forward to today 21st June and he is now into xxl clothes, he can walk, he has stopped being sick, there is not a sign of a sore or blister on his body and his skin is smooth.
He is on a programme of care to improve his medical conditions and is seen regularly by doctors and nurses.
A 100% brilliant place.
When my father arrived less than a month ago he was 6.5 stone and had numerous bed sores. He is unable to do anything for himself but the staff have been lovely and are taking such good care of him. He is eating more than he has for months. the bed sores are clearing and he is more alert. The...
When my father arrived less than a month ago he was 6.5 stone and had numerous bed sores. He is unable to do anything for himself but the staff have been lovely and are taking such good care of him. He is eating more than he has for months. the bed sores are clearing and he is more alert. The difference is fantastic.
Our mum was a resident at Tigh-Na-Muirn for five years where she had a lovely room that was kept immaculately and in keeping with the rest of the home that was maintained to a high standard. During this time Mum also had the safety and added support of unfailing care by staff who saw to her daily...
Mum’s time in Tigh-Na-Muirn was pleasant and it was made brighter due to the friendship, kindness, and care that she received not only from the care staff and management team but also from the kitchen staff, laundry staff, housekeeping/maintenance staff and activities team while staying at there.
My father came to Tigh-Na-Muirn after 2 previous care homes in the area. I have never experienced such amazing genuine care. The way every member of staff have been with both myself and my family have been amazing. Kind, corteous, mannerable and just generally caring. I can never thank you all...
My father came to Tigh-Na-Muirn after 2 previous care homes in the area. I have never experienced such amazing genuine care. The way every member of staff have been with both myself and my family have been amazing. Kind, corteous, mannerable and just generally caring. I can never thank you all enough. The communication I receive on my father's doctors visit and updates on him during difficult days are just outstanding. I want to shout from the rooftps just how outstanding this care home is and how truly invested the staff are in the care they provide.

Run by professional, highly dedicated management and staff who were always kind and caring, shown to not only the residents but to the family too.
The whole family were comforted and reassured they both received an excellent level of care according to their individual needs and were treated very respectfully and sensitively.
The family were all well informed and updated of any changes and concerns, and treated so very sensitively when it came to the end of their respective lives.
The home itself is clean and the accommodation space is very comfortable.
The communication from the care...
The communication from the care home was very thorough, and if we had any concerns, observations, or questions, they were quickly answered.
The entertainment and social events organised by the staff were very good too, and there was always some activity happening.
After the initial settling-in period, my Mother was happy and content in the home, and that was so important to us.
I would happily recommend Tigh-Na-Muirn to anyone who is making a difficult decision on how to provide the best care to a loved one.
My parents stayed for two weeks of respite care. In retrospect, they must have been really quite tired, because when we took them home they were so much more relaxed...
My parents stayed for two weeks of respite care. In retrospect, they must have been really quite tired, because when we took them home they were so much more relaxed and content.
The surroundings are lovely, but it was the staff that made it special.
Tigh-Na-Muirn aspires to be a premium product and mostly achieves this. Without doubt, the accommodation is more like a hotel than a care home. With my relatively small experience with care facilities, Tigh-Na-Muirn is top end and that should be expected given the price point.

She was unsettled, to begin with but the staff dealt with this in such a compassionate way, never getting frustrated with her and treating her like a human being, not an inconvenience.
She was always happy when we went to visit, always included in whatever activities were going on. Left in peace in her room if that is what she wanted, but always checked on.
She made new friends with the other residents and essentially had a new chapter in her life.
Although more expensive than some of the other care homes, I would say it is worth it if you can.
Mum had a lovely garden room with French doors, beautiful spacious room and bathroom.
I would highly recommend Tigh-na-Muirn. Great care, stimulation, wonderful caring staff, a loving care home.
I was beginning to find it difficult to look after myself at home and didn't want to put more pressure on my family. I came into the care of Tigh-na-Muirn and it was the best decision I have ever made. Nowhere is the same as home but I have fallen twice, had blackouts and various minor problems but...
The food is delicious and varied although I, personally, think it is too much. Special diets are meticulously catered for and again nothing is too much trouble.
The standard of cleanliness is high and there are constant checks on individual aspects of housekeeping.
Care is available 24 hours for any of one's needs and obtained by means of a buzzer. The general atmosphere is a happy one.
The security arrangements are of a very high standard.
Activities are provided for varying levels of ability and can be provided on request.
I have lived here for almost a year and have been very satisfied as has been my family.

As I live almost 500 miles from Monifieth, it was particularly reassuring to know that Mum was in good hands there on a day-to-day basis, with such friendly staff seeing to her immediate needs and keeping her company. I spoke with Mum daily and there was always helpful staff available to assist with any queries I might have.
Every time I visited Mum, I was impressed by the warm, welcoming atmosphere created by the management and staff. Tigh-Na-Muirn was, for us, an excellent choice for Mum’s new home when was no longer able to live independently.

My father-in-law needed respite care at very short notice and the staff were amazing at helping us to get him into a safe space. They have answered our (many) questions and given us lots of options for going forward. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff and it feels like they genuinely care for the residents. My father-in-law is happy and content there. He has engaged in some of the activities and particularly looks forward to dancing.
This has put our minds at rest, particularly as we don’t live locally. It’s also comforting to know that my mother-in-law can visit when she likes and can have lunch with her husband.
It’s a lovely care home and while we’re not sure how things will go for my father-in-law moving forward, we’re very pleased that there was the opportunity for him to stay when he needed it.
My mother-in-law had fabulous care in Tigh-Na-Muirn for the last two years of her previously long and active life. We chose Tigh-Na-Muin as having been two GPs in the area for decades both my husband and I had always been impressed by the high quality of care and compassion shown towards patients...
We were not disappointed. My mother-in-law had care tailored to her needs and as she became increasingly frail her care was adapted accordingly. Staff always went above and beyond, were kind and caring at all times, the manager was appropriately in touch and we always felt well informed and included in any decisions taken.
It is a nice clean friendly environment with good personal space as well as attractive interactive public spaces, making visiting pleasant.
I was recommended the home by friends, and will equally pass on our satisfaction to friends and anyone who may ask.
Mum has settled now and the staff continue to be exceptional. They always have a smile and a greeting. They send us reassuring...
Mum has settled now and the staff continue to be exceptional. They always have a smile and a greeting. They send us reassuring emails, often with a cheery picture attached.
My mother spent a number of months as a resident and my only regret is that we never considered earlier. The staff were very attentive, there were always activities on the go both internal and external of the home and cleanliness was second to none. I am using direct knowledge of other...
Unfortunately, my mother's dementia was quite advanced by the time she secured a room and she was not able to fully enjoy the full extent of what was on offer, but the family were able to rest easy knowing she was receiving excellent care around the clock.
A fantastic home. Great staff, nothing is too much bother, peace of mind when I went home that Mum was being looked after. The home is beautiful, decor and cleanliness are 5-star, wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this home as a safe place for a loved one.

The food was also excellent and my father met the chef every week who kindly discussed and took his order for the week. The food was cooked on-site and was plentiful. There were varied activities, particularly in the summer months. My father enjoyed the live music which was weekly also.

The staff go above and beyond their supportive and caring role for my dad. They communicate regularly with me and my siblings and always put his health needs first. I’ve worked in care homes over the years and would highly recommend TNM as a place of comfort and safety with lots of activities for residents. They also demonstrate excellent dementia knowledge and support and listen to your views and suggestions.
The care provided by all staff was exemplary. Our mum's every need was attended to: health, care, social. As a family, any views we had were listened to and promptly acted upon.

When our mum was dying the care was second to none.
