Most things are very good. The only complaint I have heard from a few of the residents is that the quality of the food and the variety is not very good.
16 February 2026
When you arrive the staff are always very friendly and pleased to see you. My friend is very happy here and pleased with the activities as she is in a wheelchair they also do things with her. The home is very clean and the room are fine. They residents also go shopping and out to the shops.

My mum has settled in very well since coming to stay in the home. The staff at the home all so friendly and approachable. They are always so willing to help my mum. Nothing is ever too much hassle. With mum's visitors as well as mum. The home is so good for activities and including everyone.

Accommodation very comfortable. Helpful and friendly staff. More than adequate food portions. Occasional irregularities in laundry system! Entertainments and outings - very good. Communal spaces- always tidy and clean.

Mostly I am pleased with my mothers care. I have noticed that weekends the residents don't have any activities and are just sitting about. There is always room for improvement. New staff my not have the aptitude for caring, perhaps more training needed.

Whenever we visit (frequently) the home is clean and tidy and staff are around and friendly. Mum is also comfortable and clean and tidy. We are kept aware of what is happening socially and with regard to our mum. There are lots of visitors - youngsters and entertainers to amuse the residents and
there are also lots of outings arranged to lunch clubs. Regular visits from medical staff are reassuring. The meals (and regular treats) are of a very high standard.

Mum is still enjoying her time at Scoonie House. The facilities are top notch and well-matched by the staff working there. To know Mum has this high level of care gives us great peace of mind. The activities are varied and great for mum - Mary's meals are always a great success! All in all, I can't
speak highly enough of Scoonie House and its staff.

My father-in-law has been here now for 7 months and has settled really well. He loves being outdoors and Scoonie has been able to fulfil this through lots of activities in the garden, enabling him to access the garden when he wanted to. Also loves his trips out to local venues. Staff are very
friendly, kind and caring.

Everyone cared for my grandma with great pride and support. In my grandma's final days, we were overwhelmed with support and love from the carers. Nothing was a bother to them. They gave my grandma the dignity she deserved! I cannot recommend Scoonie House more. A fantastic team. My grandma loved
the team and was always encouraged to be herself. Thank you all.

My mother moved here a month ago. We had reviewed 3 other local homes and this was the stand out choice. The staff are lovely and plentiful. The food according to my mother, is amazing. She is still settling in but is now coming out of her shell and is enjoying the activites immensly. There are
activities which I did not see the same quality or regularity at other homes. It was a very good choice.

Mum was here for a four-week respite. With her having dementia the family has been really happy with the care she has received. There are so many different activities going on and they encouraged her to get involved. Taking her out for lunch as well.
When the time comes this well be the place
where she'll stay. Staff very caring and trusting.

The staff have been exceptional with my sister. They have helped her settle in. Everyone is friendly and professional. They have also been a great help with me and answer any queries.

Since my parents moved into Scoonie House at end of May. I have been happy with the care that they get. It's a lovely home with enough activities to suit everyone.
15 January 2025
Both my parents moved to Scoonie Care Home at the end of August 2024. Both have very different needs, my dad is physically frail but still mentally very able. My mum has dementia and has no independent mobility. From the first time I took my dad to see the home he has been treated with dignity,
respect, and kindness. From the managers to the seniors, carers, and domestic staff, everyone is friendly and caring. One of the things that stands out most to me though, is how inclusive the home is. My mum would be easy to ignore. They could leave her sitting watching the TV and she'd be ok. But they don't. They encourage her to join in activities, they make a point of speaking to her and include her in conversations, and they've even had her out for lunch. My dad loves the meals, and the trips to The Bistro when visitors come in - the home's own cafe area.

I am very happy that my friend is living in such a comfortable care home. My first impressions of the home made me feel that my friend could settle in very well. Coming from a quite large 2-bedroomed home to having her own bedroom with toilet was just what she needed. She was very fortunate that
everything in her room was brand new. The home itself is clean and odour-free. She has been there for a few months now and appears to be content. The staff are friendly and recently I attended a relatives meeting which was very informative. My friend has been taken out a couple of times which is great and has benefitted from the hairdressing facility.

Scoonie House is just great, felt at home since the first day I arrived. Would recommend it to anyone.
20 June 2024
Sadly my mother passed away in Scoonie on 8th June 2024. I cannot thank the manager and her whole team enough for everything they did during the time my mum was with them, they all went above and beyond to make my mum's time enjoyable. My mum loved every one of the staff. She had a lovely room and
everything she needed, and her passing was done with dignity and respect. I would highly recommend Scoonie to anyone. With all my thanks.
07 March 2024
It was my first experience of living in a care home and I must say, what a very nice time I had. It was like a wee holiday for me and gave my daughter and son-in-law a wee break too.
I would like to think, if I ever needed another break I could come back to Scoonie House. I would recommend it to
anybody.
