Care that feels like home

Private en-suite rooms residents personalise, landscaped gardens they can walk in, and daily activities shaped around each person's interests.

A short guide
How to choose a care home in Ayr
Choosing a care home in Ayr starts with the type of care needed - residential, nursing, dementia, respite or palliative - and matching that to the right home. Distance from family matters: a home 10 minutes from a son or daughter's front door will typically see many more visits than one further away. Read the Care Inspectorate report for the homes on your shortlist carefully rather than only the top-line grades - the wording gives you a real sense of how each home is run day to day. Visit at least twice, once ideally unannounced, and notice how staff speak with residents, whether people look comfortable and engaged, and how the home smells and sounds. Ask what a typical day looks like, whether routines and preferences can be kept, and how meals, activities and visiting work in practice. Ask about links with University Hospital Ayr, NHS Ayrshire and Arran community teams and local GPs. Above all, trust the atmosphere - a warm, well-run home usually feels right within the first ten minutes.

Greenan Manor offers residential, nursing, dementia, respite and palliative care. Weekly fees vary by room type and level of care - we price each stay individually after a short assessment. Scotland's Free Personal Care contribution of £260.30/week and, where nursing is needed, Free Nursing Care of £117.10/week come off the total; a family top-up may bridge any remaining gap. We accept South Ayrshire Council placements with these contributions factored in. See our funding guide for the full picture.
