"The residents were invited to a Mad Hatters Tea Party. The room was beautifully decorated with themed bunting, some made at the regular art class. The tables were set with themed tablecloths, napkins etc and beautiful bone china cup and saucers. Staff members were dressed as characters from the story to the amusement of the residents! Some family members were present and we joined our loved ones for a themed quiz. The catering staff provided a delicious strawberries and cream cake along with a cup of tea. As always the staff provided a caring and supportive environment with the afternoon thoroughly enjoyed by all."

"My mum recently stayed at Ford Mill nursing home, for respite while I visited my daughter in Australia. We had the most incredible and positive experience and I could not speak highly enough about Ford mill nursing home. My mum said they went over and above on every level and had a really wonderful time staying there. The whole process right from the assessment by the manager Aileen, and being orientated by lovely Moira to the care home to all the staff that were involved in Mum's care, it could not have been better. It gave me huge peace of mind to be able to leave her knowing that she was being so well looked after. It has very high standards, with gorgeous rooms sitting rooms, the ambience is just wonderful. The care & attention that my mum received was 2nd to none and she loved all the activities that were planned. The whole team could not have done more to look after my mum and make her stay. I really comfortable safe one. I strongly recommend this care home highly enough"

"My stay at Fordmill was perfect in every way. The attention to detail was incredible in every way and all my needs were met and more. The staff all went the extra mile. My room was very comfortable and clean and I was so impressed with all the activities that were organised. It was such a well organised, well managed home and I felt safe and very happy to have my Respite there."

"Mum was in Fordmill for 10 months. She was so well cared for, staff are amazing, so caring and loving. Mum was vegan and kitchen staff went out of their way for her. The residents are lovely and I am continuing to visit them. Thank you so much. Mum was in the best place in Angus."

"Our Father went into Fordmill Montrose just before Christmas 2025 , from the start the staff were amazing , friendly approachable and so caring towards our Dad and ourselves , Aileen was extremely helpful, all the staff seem to genuinely care about the people they care for and the atmosphere is warm and friendly, Fordmill feels so homely the decor reminds me of a beautiful hotel , there could be no better place for a loved one to be cared for in their later years."

"After being in another care home for a short period of time Mum had trepidation about being transferred to Fordmill in Montrose. From day one she loved it and all her worries, and ours, were alleviated by the kind, caring and welcoming staff and residents. After isolating herself for many years, the staff coached her into participating in everything. During her nearly 4 years in Fordmill she enjoyed the activities and friendships she made. She particularly loved not having to cook and do the dishes!! Fordmill and the staff were a blessing to all of us, knowing Mum was safe and taken care of, thank you all for the caring and dignified way you treat your residents and their families."

"Fordmill is a brilliant care home with loving staff who were all brilliant for my mum, she thoroughly enjoyed it and the staff always went above and Beyond. the whole environment of the home is fantastic and feels like one big family."

"To start off, all of the staff - office, cleaners, kitchen and of course - the carers, are all fantastic. From the day I first visited Fordmill, they all were keen to make myself & my friend (resident) feel welcome. I dont think anything was a problem for them. Thank you!"

"We wanted mum to come into this nursing home as it had an excellent reputation and we have not regretted it for a single second. The care our mum has received is second to none. All the staff, no matter at what level, are outstanding always smiling and cheerful. Nothing is too much trouble. Very attentive to our mums needs. Mum has really enjoyed the activities she has been able to attend and we have been impressed with what they have to offer, something for everyone. Mums highlight was the Scottish dancers, bringing back happy memories. The choice of meals and the wide variety of food to choose from is excellent. The peace of mind having 24/7 care given to our mum, by the caring management and staff, helps us tremendously"

"My dad was in Fordmill from April 2025 until October 2025 when he passed. The home looked after my father wonderfully. Every member of staff were great. He was treated with compassion & respect until the end. There is always some good activities to join in & food is excellent. All care homes should be like this."

Attended care home to vaccinate with NHS TAYSIDE. Team were excellent and very helpful. Lisa was especially helpful and knew the residents well. Thanks so much. We look forward to returning.

"My experience of Fordmill care home is that the staff are fantastic and very approachable. They have been very accommodating with my Mums needs. I really appreciate all the activities that are available and my Mums family really enjoy seeing all the pictures. Thanks to all the staff you all work very hard."

"All staff even those I barly saw were amazing in their dedication to delivering a fantastic level of care to my father in his final months. But the last few days I can not find the words to thank you for what you did for us as a family not just my father."

"I can't praise the staff enough for the care they gave my husband and the family, over the last week of his life. They went above and beyond in my opinion. The staff in Fordmill Montrose are a fabulous team. Their profesionalism is second to none. I am truely thankful, my husband became a resident in this nursing home. Accept the thanks of all my family for everything they did to keep him comfortable at the end. That meant the world to us."

"First class. The staff in their entirety were caring and attentive. Food and amenities were excellent, medical attention was brilliant, the team provided entertainment and stimulation on a daily basis. Compassion, dignity and respect at the end. When it's my time, if I could afford it I'd want to go there too!"
