About The Gables

The Gables is a small residential care home located in Forfar, Angus, providing specialist support for adults with learning disabilities. Operated by Angus Council, the home accommodates up to 8 residents and was assessed by the Care Inspectorate, Scotland's independent care regulator, achieving an average grade of Good (4 out of 6) at its most recent inspection in September 2025.

The home specialises in supporting individuals with learning difficulties, offering personalised care in a small, homely environment. With only 8 beds, residents benefit from a high level of individual attention and a close-knit community atmosphere, which can be particularly valuable for those with learning disabilities who thrive in stable, familiar surroundings.

As a council-operated service, The Gables works within Angus Council's wider social care framework, ensuring residents have access to local support networks and community resources in and around Forfar.
