Private Gardens

Our private garden is the perfect spot for our residents who enjoy the warmer weather, like to spend their time outside and enjoy getting stuck into gardening. Our lovely garden is the ideal location for a gentle stroll with wide pathways, making it accessible for wheelchair users, with various seating areas and plenty of wildlife to spot.

For many residents, our private garden is the highlight of their day, with it providing plenty of activities, seasonal projects and summer parties with loved ones, when the weather permits.

The Benefits Of Safe Outdoor Spaces

Time outdoors offers real benefits for both body and mind. Gentle movement helps maintain mobility and strength, while natural light supports better sleep and mood. For residents living with dementia, the sounds and scents of the outdoors can also spark happy memories and meaningful conversations.

Our outdoor spaces are designed with safety at the forefront, from level pathways to secure boundaries and seating throughout the grounds. This means residents can enjoy the freedom of being outside independently, safely and at their own pace.

Summer Time At Raemoir Manor

Nestled at the heart of our care home in Banchory, our private garden offers residents a peaceful escape, whether they fancy a bit of hands-on gardening or simply want to unwind surrounded by nature. Designed to be accessible for all, the space is ideal for a gentle walk or some relaxed tabletop planting, and we’re firm believers in the benefits of spending time outdoors whenever possible.

As the weather warms up, our grounds become a hub of activity, hosting everything from afternoon tea in the sunshine to quiet reading and gardening sessions. However residents choose to spend their time outside, whether that’s socialising, relaxing, or getting stuck into a favourite hobby, our garden is theirs to enjoy.

Private Gardens FAQs

Our residents can enjoy a variety of outdoor activities in the garden, including walking, gardening, exercise sessions, reading and, weather permitting, the opportunity to dine with loved ones, engage in outdoor arts and crafts, and appreciate live entertainment.

To make the garden area easily accessible for all residents, we have implemented various accommodations, including wheelchair-accessible paths, seating options for those with mobility challenges, secure fencing and gates, well-maintained pathways, proper lighting, and other safety features to prevent accidents and ensure the safety of all our residents.

The garden provides residents with the opportunity to be outside, engage in outdoor activities, and connect with nature. This brings about mental and physical advantages, including reducing stress and anxiety and improving overall mood, cognitive function, cardiovascular health, balance, and muscle strength.

High-Quality Care Tailored To You

Raemoir Manor provides Nursing Care, Residential Care, Dementia Care and Respite Care, allowing us to support a wide range of needs under one roof. By offering different care types in a single setting, we can adapt support if circumstances change, helping residents remain in a familiar environment with staff they already know.

Care is planned with input from residents, families and healthcare professionals, with regular reviews to ensure support remains appropriate and respectful. Our team focuses not only on clinical needs but also on emotional wellbeing, independence where possible and maintaining the routines, hobbies and relationships that give each day its sense of purpose.

Life at Raemoir Care Home

Life at Raemoir Manor is shaped around what matters to each resident, rather than a rigid timetable. Our team supports a rhythm to the day that feels comfortable, whether that means a quiet morning with the newspaper, time in the lounge chatting with neighbours or taking part in a gentle activity.

We place importance on good food, meaningful contact and opportunities for conversation. Mealtimes are unhurried and social, with menus designed to be both nourishing and appealing, and we take care to cater for individual dietary needs. As health allows, residents are encouraged to enjoy the garden and local views, helping them stay connected to the Aberdeenshire landscape they know and love.
