With a team who are passionate about enriching the lives of their residents, Abercorn House is a thriving care home with a warm, family feel. In 2024 the home was runner-up in the Caring UK Awards, for the Care Home of the Year Award for the whole of Scotland!
Providing nursing, dementia and palliative care, the team also provide respite care breaks, which are an ideal support for carers looking after loved ones, enabling them to take a short break themselves.
There are so many wonderful activities to enjoy, from pamper sessions with manicures and hand massages, to baking and even a mobile cocktail bar!
There are gentle exercise sessions, games and also sensory sessions in the home’s relaxation room. Abercorn has a hair salon, with a mobile hairdresser visiting the home twice a week.
And mealtimes are a real highlight of the day, with home-cooked Scottish fayre prepared by the chef and home-baking for afternoon tea.
Abercorn has its own minibus for trips into the community, from the local transport museum, to garden centres and cafés. This Halloween the residents carved their own pumpkins, which they hand-picked locally.
The team are passionate about residents having a very active role to play in how their home is run, with resident ambassadors, who are involved in everything from interviewing potential staff, to providing feeding back on everything from the menus to the activities on offer.
Loved ones are welcome at any time, and Abercorn has a lovely garden room, which is a wonderful space for families to celebrate special occasions.
The large gardens are a beautiful place to relax in the summer. They have just had a makeover, with the residents helping with the designs, choosing everything from the layout to the plants and furniture they would like. This summer the residents enjoyed growing their own flowers and vegetables.
Our 2025 weekly room fees start from £1310 but may be up to 30% more. This depends on the type of bedroom that is right for you, from our standard rooms to our premium bedroom options.

It is very good as she interacts with other residents, and loves to dance, which she would never get up and do in her own house. There are also oppertunities where they also take her out to different places.

The family carefully reviewed a number of care homes, both from personal recommendations, of which we had a few from Abercorn House. We visited the homes and checked the Care Commission reviews, and concluded that this would be the best place for my mum. This was only 7 weeks ago. Since then, we have not been disappointed. The staff and what they provide are excellent. We have seen a massive improvement in my mum's overall health and, more importantly, her attitude to life. I am so pleased we made this hard decision to place my mum in this care home. It was undoubtedly the correct decision.
Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review. We understand how significant this decision is, so it is wonderful to hear that your experience has been so positive. It's especially encouraging to know your mum's health and outlook have improved in such a short time, and that our team has made a meaningful difference. Your kind words truly mean a great deal to us.

My sister went into Abercorn House in January 2026 after being in hospital for 9 weeks, as a family we were all worried about how she would be, but she has settled really well due to the staff as they could not have been nicer, everyone made her feel very welcome and are so helpful with us when we have any questions. It means so much to us that she is happy and that she is doing more and joining in as much as she can. Definitely the best place we could have chosen.
Thank you for sharing such thoughtful feedback. We're delighted to hear how well your sister has settled and that our team helped her feel so welcome after her hospital stay. Knowing she's happy, getting involved and that you feel supported means a great deal to us.
My Dad is new to the care home since November and so far I'm very pleased with the care and attention he receives. This stage if his life is extremely important to him and to me and it's very reassuring to know he is being well looked after.

I love visiting and they have given my Mum her life back on so many occasions we cannot thank Abercorn and everyone there enough for all they do. Thank you so much
My Dad has been a resident at Abercorn for several months now. I live in England so have only been able to visit a few times, however my Mum visits daily. I know Rowena (the manager) from old, and I am not just saying this - she is such a genuine and caring nurse - she always wants rhe best for...

The care given by the staff is exemplary. One occasion recently, however, I believe merited further comment. A relatively new carer was attending to a resident who had fallen. The carer was on her own in the lounge at the time. As I approached, I saw the carer realise my husband was trying to stand up (he is a falls risk). She took the decisive action to rush to my husband's aid. When I thanked her, her response was "the one who had fallen was safe on the floor and so I needed to attend to the other" In my opinion, she showed excellent awareness and decision making, and she is a welcome addition to an already good team.
Thank you for your kind words and for highlighting this moment. We're so pleased to hear about the carer's quick thinking and sound judgment its exactly the kind of care we aim to provide. We'll make sure your praise is shared with her and the team. Your feedback means a lot to us.
Very happy with the level of service. The office staff were extremely helpful during the initial setup for my parent. The nursing staff have been outstanding in caring for my mum. Regular updates on caring needs via phone calls by the nursing team are very reassuring.

My sister moved into Abercorn House on the 26th of November 2024. she had spent 15 weeks in hospital, not allowed out of bed.

I am allowed to take her to church and to her hairdresser. It is the best she has been for years.

Putting my husband into care because of advanced dementia was a very traumatic time for our family and me. My only contact with residential care was many years ago, visiting an elderly neighbour in a home. However, my fears were groundless. From the beginning, he was treated with kindness, dignity, patience and good humour. The staff are always pleasant and helpful. They do a job which I could never do. Abercorn House is clean, very warm and comfortable and the food looks appetising and nutritious. Dementia is a terrible affliction, however, I know that my husband is getting the best of care.

My aunt went straight from the hospital to Abercorn House Care Home and was very well looked after from the start she has settled in very well and enjoys going on outings as she wasn't able to do this at home. I live down south and I phone every 2 days to talk to my aunt and have never had any issues. The staff are lovely and friendly and my aunt likes to have a laugh with them. Overall I am very pleased with the care my aunt gets and when I visit it has a homely feel.
