Overview
My husband and I had a super break in this delightful place. All the staff,and there were a lot of them, were very attentive and caring. We were looked after from the minute I parked the car outside. This was our first visit so I didn’t know what to expect. What I didn’t expect was to walk into a stately home with amazing decor! My husband has Parkinson’s and related dementia and is confined to a wheelchair. His needs were well taken care of and my caring responsibilities were taken away from me thus giving me a complete rest. I was able to leave him to meet up with friends knowing he was being well cared for. Physiotherapy was on offer every day for Alan and different therapies eg massage, reflexology were also available for both of us. There were plenty entertainment opportunities either in house or trips away. The meals were excellent too and a great variety. This was our first stay at Leuchie and we certainly hope to go back. We met many lovely people both staff and guests, a truly unforgettable experience
Transport & Parking
There was plenty parking spaces at front entrance. A mini bus fitted to take a number of wheelchairs was there and also vehicles for taking a single wheelchair I drove there but for people travelling by train help was on hand at the nearby station and the Lruchie minibus picked people up
Access
Full disabled access to all parts. No steps at entrance and lifts inside house
Toilets
Toilets were fully equipped for disabled assistance and large enough to turn in wheelchair
Staff
Staff could not have been more helpful and attentive.....lovely, lovely people! There were full nursing and caring staff as well as physiotherapists and general helpers and catering staff. Nothing was any bother to them. A lot of volunteers help there too. A good sense of humour was very prevalent among the staff!
Anything else you wish to tell us?
We would definitely visit again and I would recommend it to anyone who is caring for a disabled relative as the carer gets a well deserved break and the cared for person is given plenty of attention and entertained
