Cromar Court, Tarland

The sheltered housing scheme at Cromar Court, Tarland was built in 1986 and consists of 6 flats and 6 cottages grouped around an attractive landscaped courtyard area. There is a residents’ lounge and attached kitchen, laundry equipped with tumble dryers and washing machines and guest bedroom where friends or relatives of tenants can stay overnight for a small charge.

All properties have central heating supplied from a central oil fired boiler. There is also a Scheme Manager call system and fire alarm system throughout the scheme. The first floor flats also have stairlift access from ground floor level, to assist tenants who may have mobility problems.

We provide a Housing Support service 7 days each week at this scheme.   We employ a Manager and a Relief Manager to do so, and they are normally on duty each day from 9.00 am - 5.00 pm, with a one hour flexible break for lunch between 12.00 - 2.00 pm.   When staff are not on duty, support for tenants is provided by RCC/Community Alarm, whose staff can initiate appropriate action to assist.

In Tarland itself there is a medical practice, Post Office, hotels, and a range of shops. Public transport is also available, with links to Aboyne and Aberdeen.

A local bus service, the Deeside Village Hopper operates 5 days a week - more details can be found on the local authority's website. There is a link to the site here.

Timetables for the week can be found here.
