The staff are so amazing, nothing was to much trouble. David mentioned that the staff saved his life. Thank-you so much.
We appreciate you sharing your experience with our home. It is always wonderful to hear words like "Amazing" being used to describe our staff. Hopefully you will go away from this feeling like your loved one received the best possible care.
This home gives exceptional care, taking time to get to know their patients and what they need to enjoy life. My dad was so happy here, and it was a joy to visit the home and see him taking part in all activities and interacting with residents and staff who made him laugh every day and vice versa. Their home optimises what a true care home should be. Thank you.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us your kind review. We hope that knowing how happy your Dad was with us at Kilfillan House is of comfort to you now. Thank you again for choosing us to care for him.
Thank you for all the wonderful care and especially your patience with a dear relative who demands a lot of patience - through a condition. Great and wonderful care.
Thank you for your feedback. It is always nice to hear from family members feeling like their loved one is well cared for and looked after in our home. Thank you again for your review.
My mum went into the care home for four weeks of respite; during this time her health improved immensely. All the staff were amazing and my family cannot thank them enough. I would certainly recommend this facility.
Thank you for taking the time to leave this lovely review. We are so pleased to hear how well your mother settled in for her respite stay and subsequently, how well she recovered. This is truly a testament to our team who are so dedicated and caring.
Whilst my mother was only with you for a relatively short period before her passing, the care she received at Kilfillan House was outstanding. There is a real community feel to Kilfillan House. The staff clearly enjoy what they do to the benefit of all residents. The food is excellent and the activities programme is second to none. I will miss visiting! Thank you again.
We really appreciate you taking the time to leave your review. It is lovely to hear the way you describe our provision as outstanding. We hope that you are able to find comfort in knowing that your Mother received the very best of care in her final days.
Kilfillan House Care Home is without doubt (judged on previous care home experiences!) Exactly that. The care kindness, humour and above all the dignity that is shown to my father is exemplary. We cannot thank the wonderful staff enough.
Thank you for your lovely review. It is always nice to hear from family members feeling like their loved one is well cared for.
The ambiance of the place is good. You feel it as you walk in. Plus the staff above all seem kind as well as being efficient.
We're so grateful that you've taken the time to share your thoughts. It's lovely to know that you found the surroundings here pleasant and well maintained- we want our residents to feel at home from the moment they arrive. Please don't hesitate to reach out if there's anything more we can do.
My mother has been a resident of Kilfillan House Care Home for the last 3 months and is settling in well. The staff are brilliant. They always have a smile and are looking after mum extremely well. The accommodation is very good, mum's bedroom is light and airy, and nicely decorated. The food is of a very good standard and plenty of it. If anything the portion sizes could be a little smaller as mum struggles to get through some of the meals. However, she thoroughly enjoys the afternoon tea and cakes. I feel very reassured that mum is being very well cared for and I can't thank the team enough. They are amazing!
Thank you for your lovely review. Providing peace of mind for families is one of our top priorities, so your words mean a lot. Thank you for your kind words about the facilities. We take great pride in keeping the home bright, comfortable and full of light. We're pleased to know the meals are...
My mum moved into Kilfillan House for respite care in June 2025 while we searched for somewhere permanent nearby. She had lived independently and then with me, but needed more daily support. We tried another care home, but although it was newer and had more facilities, it felt more like a hotel than a home Mum could settle in. Kilfillan House immediately stood out for its warm, homely atmosphere and caring staff. Mum has settled in well and I'm always reassured knowing she is being looked after by a dedicated team. I'm particularly impressed by how they've encouraged Mum, who is quite shy, to join in with activities, helping her feel comfortable and included. My visits are always positive, and I appreciate being welcomed in too. I would certainly recommend Kilfillan House to anyone looking for a true 'home' for their loved one.
Thank you for your lovely review. We are happy to hear both you and your Mum now feel like a part of our Kilfillan House family. Thank you again for choosing us for your Mum's care.
Mum has settled in well and seems happy. I prefer it if she is with the other residents in the lounge even if she is sleepy. It's great that she is encouraged to take part in games etc. I am very happy with Kilfillan, it's very homely and comfortable, and the majority of the staff are excellent. I would highly recommend Kilfillan.
Thank you for your feedback. It is wonderful to hear that your mother has settled in comfortably with us. It's lovely to know that your loved one has been enjoying the activities and events at the home. Keeping our residents engaged and happy is one of our top priorities. We are looking forward to welcoming you back to the home again.
From the moment he arrived, the staff were incredibly kind, thoughtful, and attentive, providing an outstanding level of care. The home itself felt warm and welcoming, with a lovely atmosphere for both residents and visitors, and the food was varied and clearly prepared with care. Despite only being there for a short time, my dad formed genuine connections with the staff. When it was time to leave, he became very emotional, as everyone came to say goodbye and made him feel so valued and cared for. We are really grateful to the team at Kilfillan House and would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for compassionate, high quality care. We would not hesitate for a moment to bring my dad back should the need arise.
Thank you for your lovely review. We are delighted to hear that your father enjoyed his stay with us at Kilfillan House. Our staff will be so pleased to read your review- they go above and beyond to make every resident feel special and well cared for. Thank you for recognising the care and...
Our mother spent 5 weeks at Kilfillan House before she passed away and throughout her stay we were very impressed and grateful for the kindness, professionalism and care that she received from all the team at the home. They made mum's last few weeks bearable and we will always be thankful to them.

My mum 's stay at Kilfillan was just three weeks until she died but she was in the best possible care. My family is very grateful to each and every member of staff for the professionalism, kindness and compassion they gave us and my mother. Everyone - nursing, admin, cleaners - was exemplary. Whilst end of life is never going to be an easy process, I can't imagine it could be any better than the one provided by Kilfillan. Thank you.

This was my father's 2nd respite stay here. It was great to see so many of the same friendly caring staff as were here 2 years ago on his last stay. There is a really happy atmosphere amongst the staff who clearly know the residents well and they really understand my dad's needs and gave an excellent level of care. The catering and facilities were also very good with varied menu and nice lounge and garden. Would definitely recommend.

My mum has had a very happy life at Kilfillan House. She has been a resident since Sept 2024. The staff are well qualified and friendly. The accommodation is spotless and comfortable. My mum sadly passed away suddenly this month and the help and support I have received is 5 star! Although my mum's mobility was zero, she never missed the abundance of entertainment provided in the lounge. The cooking is all from fresh ingredients, top quality.

My mother is a resident at Kilfillan house, and I have found the care and compassion shown to her has been wonderful. All of the staff that I have been in contact with have been courteous, knowledgeable and, despite being busy, always happy. They have been good at passing on information to me and other members of the family. I have no hesitation in recommending this home.
