About Thistle

Thistle is a residential care home for adults with learning disabilities, located in Dundee within the Dundee City council area. Operated by Cygnet (OE) Limited, the home provides accommodation for up to 12 residents. At its most recent Care Inspectorate inspection in July 2025, Thistle achieved an average grade of Good, rated 4 out of 6, reflecting a solid standard of care and service delivery.

The home specialises in supporting individuals with learning difficulties and autism spectrum disorders, offering tailored care to meet the specific and varied needs of each resident. Staff work to create a supportive and structured environment that promotes wellbeing, independence, and quality of life for those in their care.

With 12 beds, Thistle offers a relatively small and personalised setting, which can be particularly beneficial for residents who thrive in quieter, more familiar surroundings. Its location in Dundee also allows for access to local community amenities and services.
