About Kinloch Care Centre

Kinloch Care Centre is a residential care home for older people located in Carnoustie, within the Angus council area. Operated by Angus Council, the home provides care across 16 beds. At its most recent Care Inspectorate inspection in December 2025, Kinloch Care Centre achieved an average grade of Good, scoring 3.6 out of 6 on the regulator's grading scale.

The home specialises in supporting residents with a range of complex needs, including acquired brain injury, Korsakoff's syndrome, mental health problems, neurological conditions, and dementia in older people. This breadth of specialism means Kinloch Care Centre is well placed to support individuals with diverse and often challenging care requirements.

With 16 beds, the home offers a smaller, more personalised care environment, which can be particularly beneficial for residents who require close attention and tailored support. Its location in Carnoustie provides residents with access to a welcoming coastal community.
