I am a friendly and joint power of attorney for a lady who was placed in Struan Lodge to free up a hospital bed until she could be returned to her house with a care package. The home was clean and well suited. The view from her bedroom window of trees and wildlife was particularly appreciated by her. Staff were welcoming and friendly to her need and took her for local walks, which she loved. Very helpful and nice.
We are delighted to hear your friend enjoyed her time with us and hope that she is happy and settled in her home again.
In the past year, the care home has been subjected to the stressful rigours of coping with Covid 19 whilst maintaining the high standards of caring for its residents. The management, carers and other staff have successfully applied all the many regulations required to prevent an outbreak of this...
The only communications I get with my wife is by using the video link. By modern standards the quality of this system is not so good - it needs replacing.
Thank you very much for your kind words; we are very happy that you are pleased with the care here at Struan. We apologise for any issues with video communication, and we are working towards achieving better signals for our building.

My mother has been a resident of Struan Lodge for over a year. She has a bright room with a view over the well maintained, attractive and colourful garden, which she loves to look at through her window. She can also watch walkers and cyclists going along the public footpath nearby. Mum has been thoughtfully and consistently well cared for by members of staff throughout her stay, which has been during the very challenging period of Covid 19. Mum's individual needs have been attended to, and she has always been treated with dignity and respect. Any concerns or queries that I have had have been answered promptly and with consideration.
Thank you for a wonderful review. We are very glad that you are happy with your mum's care here at Struan. We hope to see everyone soon once the lockdown begins to ease.

My family and I are very happy with my husband’s care. He has settled in very quickly and at no point has he complained about anything within the home. I have always found the staff to be very helpful and courteous. I was dreading the time when I would have to put my husband into a care home but this hasn’t happened due to the care and devotion shown by the staff. Thank you all very much.
Thank you for your lovely review, and your kind words. We are dedicated to the residents in our care and their families, it is a pleasure to have your husband in our home.

I am so pleased to leave a recommendation for Struan Lodge. My Mum had really hit crisis point staying at home late last year and we arranged for her to move to a Care Home quite reluctantly. However, Struan Lodge have been fantastic. The staff are simply lovely. It is such a relief to know Mum is being looked after so well. Her dementia is so progressed it makes things very difficult but they treat her with the greatest respect and it's a weight off our shoulders to know she is clean, safe and happy. Her room has a lovely view of the trees, birds and squirrels and we've made it homely with her own bedding and lots of photos. She is a falls risk since she is blind in one eye and quite frail and the manager and staff made special additional arrangements during the Covid lockdown to ensure she was safe. Thank you so much to everyone at Struan Lodge for everything you are doing for all your residents at what must be a very stressful time.
Thank you very much for such a lovely review, we strive to provide a high level of care to all our residents. It is an absolute pleasure to look after your mum and we are delighted you are happy with our care.
Despite the restrictions on visiting, the care provider has kept me up to date with everything happening, especially the issues regarding Covid19. I get regular updates either via an email or the regular newsletter.

We are glad you are happy with our communication and service.
The team at Struan Lodge are very helpful and look after my father very well. Activities he enjoys from dominoes to walks in the garden. His room always smells fresh and is tidy. The menu is a good selection, and the afternoon tea my father enjoys.

Thank you for the lovely review. Each of the skilled colleagues at Struan Lodge takes great pride in making a difference. We are a lucky team to work with wonderful residents and their families.
A warm welcome from all of the staff and management. Even in difficult covid times, they have managed to make my aunt an active member of the home's community.

I just wanted to say thank you for everything you did for my Father over the last few months and for your understanding and compassion in dealing with my Mother and the family. These are extraordinary times which make it even harder for you to do your jobs, and it is a great credit to you and your team that you continue to provide a safe and comfortable environment for your residents, at considerable sacrifice to your own personal lives. We miss Dad greatly but have a mountain of happy memories to sustain us, and I am glad that you managed to see something of his character in his time with you. Once again, many thanks for everything, and best wishes.
We had the pleasure of your dad's company for a few months and what an enjoyable few months that was, he brightened up our days with his smile. On top of that, we were lucky enough to have spent time with your mum and the family. Thank you for your wonderful and heartfelt comments and we are glad...

Thank you for your wonderful and heartfelt comments and we are glad you have so many happy memories to keep you smiling. Best wishes from Tabatha and all the team at Struan Lodge.
Although very happy with the staff in the home I am absolutely shocked by the recent rise in the cost of residency in the home of 10%, bringing the monthly cost to just under £6,500 per month. Having made my enquiries at other local Care Home who provides the same service as my sister-in-law...
I would again stress that I have no complaint whatsoever with the staff of the home.
Thank you for your review. It is great to hear that our team are delivering great quality care and support to your Mother. We regret that our current fees are causing concern to you. We aim to ensure that our fees are comparable to other Care Homes within the area.

Struan Lodge is a wonderful place, the staff are outstanding at their jobs, very caring thoughtful and friendly. It is very well organised and managed, very clean. They handled the lockdown extremely professionally, giving me peace of mind that they did everything within their powers to protect all the residents, they had zero cases which was a huge accomplishment.
Thank you for such a wonderful review, we appreciate your continued support. Here at Struan we strive to ensure the comfort and happiness of all our residents but equally their family and friends.

Day to day care in the home itself has been and remains excellent. Staff are friendly and caring and make residents feel cared for and content. However, communication with residents and their families regarding costs and fees, in particular, proposed fee increases, in my opinion, has been nothing short of appalling and requires to be addressed.

The management team within Struan Lodge focus solely on the care delivery and well being of its residents on a day to day basis. Care is delivered to a high standard and this is reflected in the positive comments made by family members and those residing in the home. Fees and costings are under the control of the business directors in head office who advise family members to contact them directly if they have any questions or comments, however, the Struan Lodge management team have an open-door policy and welcome visitors too. It should be noted that Struan Lodge is one of the less expensive private care homes in Edinburgh and we believe for the service we provide, we are fairly priced.
