Care home of the month
Balhousie Rumbling Bridge care home
Rumbling Bridge is a small village named after a unique double bridge that crosses the gorge 120 feet above the River Devon. Nestled at the foot of the Ochil Hills in beautiful countryside, just 6 miles from Kinross and the M90 (Jct 6), Rumbling Bridge is a peacefully quiet, friendly place where neighbours know each other, a bus comes a couple of times a day, and the single-track bridge over the gorge means that cars have to slow down (being off the main A823 there is little traffic anyway).
Our care home is equally peaceful and inviting. Originally a hotel before it was converted to a care home, Balhousie Rumbling Bridge care home became part of the Balhousie Care Group in 2005. Following a recent refurbishment, the home provides nursing care to a maximum of 48 residents (the majority of rooms have en suite facilities to each bedroom including a small number of double rooms).

Our passion is well known for ensuring that the opinions and preferences of every resident and their families is understood, and that the standard of care we provide goes beyond what might normally be expected.
Our managers and their staff are genuinely dedicated and proud to be able to care for our residents in what we call "The Balhousie Way", and we hope that you are able to learn more here at our website about "The Balhousie Way", its value and its meaning to our residents, their families and the community at large.
Words of appreciation...
- The thing I most enjoy is the interaction with residents and family members. Being part of a team that delivers high quality care, often in the latter years of an individual's life, while trying to promote their independence is a big responsibility. I think it's hugely important to be able to make that time as easy and comfortable as possible. Manager, Balhousie Lisden Care Home
