01250 872853Stormont Care Home Blairgowrie – Classic Collection
Hello. I’m Bernie Campbell and it would be my pleasure to show you around our care home. Balhousie Stormont Care Home has charm, warmth and an homely yet elegant appeal. This beautiful 19th Century former country house is set in the town of Blairgowrie. Balhousie Stormont has become one of most popular care homes in our group. One of the striking features of this home is the spacious and welcoming first floor drawing room that provides residents with magnificent views of the Perthshire countryside. Blairgowrie is a bustling rural town, set alongside the River Ericht in the Perthshire hills. It has grown into a well known tourist centre and has easy access to the mountains and hills and views that surround it. Many of our residents enjoy being taken out for the day by their family or friends to explore the beauty of the nearby countryside. To arrange a visit please call 01250 872853 or contact me online.

Caring for the diet of our residents and making sure they have nutritious meals is an area where you'll find our managers, our staff and most importantly our chefs extremely engaged and active.
The catering and hospitality services teams at Balhousie Care Group are constantly looking at ways we can improve our food and refreshment offerings. Recently, new menus have been introduced that have a greater content of fresh, local produce. This is part of an ongoing process of reviewing and responding to resident requests for more variety and choice.
In addition to the availability through the day of favourites such as coffee, tea and hot chocolate, our residents are also encouraged to drink a healthy amount of other fluids, including a special range of tasty squashes and refreshing fruit drinks to aid their hydration. This also makes a valuable contribution to bladder health and fitness.
By prior arrangement close family or relatives can join us at lunch or evening time to see for themselves just how tasty mealtimes at a Balhousie Care home can be.
