Welcome to Scoonie House

Scoonie House Care Home is located in the picturesque seaside village of Leven, next to Buckhaven, and within easy reach of Glenrothes and Kirkcaldy. It offers modern convenience in a converted period property, set in established and wooded grounds adjacent to quiet parkland.

This charming Victorian property provides high-quality residential care, with highly trained care colleagues on hand around the clock to ensure that everyone’s individual needs and preferences are met, whether on a permanent, respite or convalescent care basis.

All bedrooms have ensuite facilities, and spacious and welcoming living spaces are ideal to receive visiting family and friends, as are the landscaped gardens in the summer.

As well as engaging daily activities in the home, there are also trips out to the local shops and places of interest, including the coastline of Largo Bay.

Keeping Things Personal

The welcoming surroundings at Scoonie House Care Home are matched by the high standard of individual care our colleagues provide to our residents. When you arrive and throughout your stay you’re greeted with warmth, passion, and care and our community is vibrant, happy, and homely.

We love learning as much as we can about who we care for, so your loved one’s time is tailored to their individual need and interests.

Our team take the time to get to know all our residents and encourage independence and communication.

We are dedicated to providing a smooth transition into a home where care is from the heart and interaction with residents is paramount. Our residents show us the way. They tell us what they need, and we do our very best to deliver. Every element of our care is considered with their needs in mind. Surrounding everyone with familiarity, security and care, we make their experience with us as fulfilling as possible.

My mother moved from another care home to scoonie and it was the best thing I did for her .The staff are so kind and will do everything they can to help her and she cannot praise the meals enough. Melanie the manager is great to get on with and always so cheerful and she has got things for my mum that I have asked her if she could possibly get and she has done she really goes above and beyond duty to help my mum feel that she is really at home she really deserves all the praise she gets I cannot praise Scoonie House enough with thanks Rae.Since the home has been refurbished I really cannot praise it enough and now that my mum needs more care the staff really take the best of care towards my mum I couldn’t ask for any better and I must thank them all they don’t just care for my mum but support me as well which I appreciate deeply. Melanie does a wonderful job and like the rest of the staff always takes time with me.

Meet the Manager

Melanie is our Home Manager at Scoonie House – here’s a little bit more about her role at the home in her own words:

“I ensure that the residents have the possibility to participate in the day-to-day running of the home to ensure that they get what they need from the home and for us to ascertain what is important to the residents.

I enjoy developing ways to promote the resident’s rights and responsibilities and provide information, advice and support not only to the residents but also to their families. I’m also creating opportunities for residents to contribute to the local community and access local services, giving them a sense of freedom and belonging.

Having been at Scoonie House for a number of years, I have a vast knowledge and understanding of our home and residents.”
