This, for us as a family, was a very hard decision for mum to go into a home, but on that we now know it was the best and right decision for mum. Glen Tanar is a lovely home that not only makes mum feel at home but also welcomes and supports us as a family. All the residents in the home always have a smile on their faces, and nothing is too much trouble for any of the staff. They go above and beyond with the outstanding care given to the residents at Glen Tanar. Their entertainment program is outstanding, and they try to encourage all residents to be involved, which is lovely, and it is also lovely to see updates on social media when you have work commitments. My mum has now settled and really enjoys being there, which is reassuring for the family. I also now feel that when I leave Mum, she is happy, and I know she is safe and very well looked after. I can't thank the manager and her team enough for making a very difficult decision and time as a family reassuring and lovely for our mum.

The transition of my brother moving into Glen Tanar was seamless. All the team have been absolutely amazing in supporting him (and me) along the way. The support provided in every element has been outstanding. Everyone has gone out of their way to make him feel included and part of the Glen Tanar family. He's enjoying the food and company. Being here has hugely enhanced his quality of life. Thank you.

My mother always says the best thing she ever did was come into Glen Tanar. She says it is home from home, all the staff are wonderful, and she is cared for brilliantly. She has a lovely room, plenty of company, good food and there is always plenty going on to keep us entertained. What more can you ask for knowing that your 93-year-old mother is happy where she lives. Thank you Glen Tanar.

My mother has now been at Glen Tanar for over 3 years. She is extremely well cared for and enjoys participating in the activities that are provided; she has even learned how to use an electronic tablet! She recently had to visit A&E and the team ensured she was accompanied at all times whilst she waited to see a doctor. Her room is kept to an immaculate condition and she enjoys the meals provided. I am very grateful to all the staff for the care provided, it certainly gives me peace of mind.

The warmth of the welcome we receive as visitors is exceptional, and it is absolutely clear how much the staff care for everyone, it's a wonderfully friendly place, and my mum loves it. The food is first class (better than a previous care home according to my mum!), and the bedrooms are lovely and comfortable.

This care home is excellent, the staff are so caring and fun. The communication with management is clear and helpful. Mother-in-law is so happy and loves the staff and the interaction with all the residents too. There is always a great atmosphere in the home, but it's also very professional too. 11/10 super excellent!

Glen Tanar has been the right choice of care home for my Aunt. She has been a resident for several years and during this time the care she has received has been excellent. The staff is hardworking, tentative towards my Aunt, and caring. They are all extremely approachable and will help with whatever needs you require. My aunt has been extremely happy and gets on well with all the staff. Management is fantastic. I can't fault this care home and would highly recommend it.

Such lovely staff, so very kind to my mum and so very kind to us when we visit. Staff go out of their way to make sure Mum is comfortable. Staff take time to contact us regularly as we live such a long way from Mum, they make sure we are updated and make it easy to visit whenever it suits us.

I know everything is good lately and excellent, we have good fun and a laugh.

Friendly staff. Warm environment. Caring and professional.

We were hesitant about putting Mum into full-time care as she has always been with family. However, the management and staff have been so welcoming and give full disclosure. My mum is really happy at the home and this has made the transition so much easier and accepting.

We came to view Glenn Tanar when my Dad was in another home we weren't happy with. We loved it immediately. We had to wait a few weeks for a place to become available, now he is in Glenn Tanar we are delighted with the experience for Dad. It's such a relief for him to be in a happy home where he is entertained and treated with dignity. I can't speak highly enough of the ream here, who have made him (and us) feel very welcome.

The staff are very helpful and kind, the rooms are bright and welcoming.

Absolutely amazing place. Loads of room, fabulous staff, freshly cooked food, lots to do and Dad loves it, as do we. Can't recommend highly enough.

My mother was a resident, or should I say part of the 'Glen Tanar family', from March 2022 until the end of October 2022 when she sadly passed away. As soon as she moved in I knew instantly this was the right home for her. All of the staff were so friendly and welcoming, there was just a lovely vibe about the place, everyone, residents and staff, seemed happy and there was always so much laughter. During her stay at Glen Tanar, my mother was cared for to the very highest standard and with such love and attention, nothing was too much for the staff. We were always welcomed very warmly and encouraged to see Mum whenever we wanted no matter what time of day or night. This home is just a class above all the other care homes I've had dealings with. I really could not have wished for a better place for my mum to be, it's an amazing home. I can't thank the manager and all her wonderful staff enough for the unwavering care and compassion they showed my mum. Thank you.

Since moving into Glen Tanar, my mum has become much happier. She is very well cared for and nothing is too much trouble for the staff. They have lots of activities and the home is clean and bright. I cannot recommend this place enough.

I looked around for a care home for Dad when he was poorly back in May 2022. I live in Cornwall so not able to be there. Glen Tanar sounded just right from the telephone calls we had. This proved to be the case from the moment he was admitted into their care. He was quite poorly initially and they recognised this straight away and contacted the GP. From then on they had the perfect mix of care and understanding of Dad's need to keep his independence. I will be forever grateful for the kindness and caring they showed him and me when I came to visit. They encouraged all the things Dad enjoyed and the staff went above and beyond to make his stay with them a positive one. He achieved his goal by going into rehab and then home where he is now. This would not have happened if it had not been for the professional care and attention he received at Glen Tanar. Thank you to all the staff, a great team led by the manager.

Absolutely faultless. Amazing home and the staff can't do enough to help. Love all of the staff. Couldn't have wished for a better care home for Mum. Thank you so much.

My mum has been a resident for 18 months. After an initial reluctance to accept care, she settled in well. She is content and happy. She had made friends and we have seen a huge improvement in her well being. The precautions and care during the pandemic were excellent. My mum is not the easiest of people but the staff treat her with patience, kindness and humour.
