Families offer mixed views of Claremont House. Several reviewers praise individual care staff as genuinely caring and describe the manager as knowledgeable and approachable, with the building itself well regarded. However, recurring concerns include heavy reliance on agency staff, poor communication from management with families, and frequent or prolonged outbreak lockdowns that restricted visits and confined residents to their rooms. Some also raised issues around laundry going missing or being misallocated, medication and supervision concerns, and a lack of activities or time spent outdoors.
Families consistently praise the caring, attentive staff at Lochduhar, describing a warm, family-oriented atmosphere and noting that residents appear well looked after. The varied activities programme, particularly music and singing, is frequently mentioned as a highlight, and the recent refurbishment and approachable management were also welcomed. One review noted limited interaction between residents, suggesting the home may be especially suited to those requiring higher levels of care.
Families describe Goldielea as a pleasant care home with kind, caring staff, including during respite stays. Reviewers note that both care staff and cleaners were attentive and welcoming. Overall feedback is positive, though the reviews are fairly brief and general.
