Atlantic View reaches maximum occupancy: A milestone achievement for Enhance Healthcare

February 3, 2025

Enhance Healthcare is proud to announce that Atlantic View, one of the newest additions to the Enhance family, has officially reached maximum occupancy, with 50 residents now calling the luxury care setting home.

Situated in the charming seaside town of Ayr, overlooking the stunning Firth of Clyde, Atlantic View offers a standard of living akin to a five-star hotel. The purpose-built home, completed in 2024, spans four floors, featuring 50 private en-suite bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed to provide comfort and tranquillity. Residents enjoy a wealth of top-tier facilities, including a fully equipped gym, cinema, games room, and a welcoming central café where residents, family members, and friends can relax together. Spacious living and dining areas further add to the home’s sense of community, while beautifully landscaped gardens create a serene outdoor retreat.


Since opening its doors in March 2024, Atlantic View has quickly built an outstanding reputation for delivering exceptional care, earning the trust of residents, families, and the wider community. This commitment to excellence was further validated during its inaugural Care Inspectorate visit, where the home achieved an unprecedented five Grade 5 ratings across key categories, including Wellbeing, Leadership, and Care Planning. Inspectors commended the home for its clean, comfortable environment and the team’s focus on person-centred care, with one comment highlighting:


“Staff know everyone and take their time with you; they always ask you and give you a choice.”


Atlantic View has also received high praise from visiting local council officials, who have observed the exceptional care firsthand:


“The hospitality offered and interaction with all staff members was excellent. My review visit was a pleasure—this is reflective of a great team.”


The sense of community at Atlantic View extends beyond residents, with staff sharing how much they enjoy working there:


“I love working here! You get to be part of a really great team of people who are all working hard for each other to make this a great place to live and work.”


“We’re all so well supported by staff and management—it doesn’t really feel like coming to work!”


Under the guidance of experienced manager Michelle Sommerville, Atlantic View has assembled a team of highly trained and dedicated professionals who place residents at the heart of everything they do. Their commitment to creating a welcoming and nurturing environment has fostered strong community ties and an exceptional quality of life for residents.

Residents themselves have spoken about the positive impact of life at Atlantic View:


“It’s the best home I’ve been in by far, and I have been in three prior to here.”


“Everyone is so friendly and happy, and they look after us so well—it’s like being at home!”


“The chef knows I love Cotswold bread and used to make it at home, so they bought a bread maker and make it for me fresh here too!”


Michelle Sommerville, Care Home Manager, shared her thoughts on this milestone:


“I’m so proud of what we’ve accomplished as a team. To reach maximum occupancy in less than a year is a testament to the exceptional care we provide and the welcoming community we’ve built here at Atlantic View. Every resident is part of our family, and it’s an honour to call this place home for them.”



As Atlantic View celebrates this milestone, Enhance Healthcare continues to set a benchmark for quality care. With its outstanding facilities, dedicated team, and unwavering focus on resident wellbeing, the home embodies Enhance Healthcare’s mission to provide safe, comfortable, and enriching environments for all.
