Parklands began in 1993 with a simple ambition: to provide older people with compassionate, person-centred care in welcoming homes.
From a single care home in Buckie, we have grown into one of the leading independent care providers in the north of Scotland. Today, we operate 13 care homes across the Highlands, Moray and Aberdeenshire, employing around 1,000 colleagues and caring for more than 500 residents.
While much has changed over the past three decades, our values remain the same. As part of Myriad Group, we continue to invest in our people, our homes and the future of care across the north of Scotland.
Parklands has earned a reputation for delivering high-quality, person-centred care while investing in the wellbeing of residents, colleagues and local communities. The group's commitment to excellence has been recognised through a range of national and regional awards.
Recent accolades include the Care Home Award for Best for Wellbeing in 2025, Regional Care Home of the Year (Scotland) for Eilean Dubh Care Home in 2025, the Care Home Award for Best for Communication and Use of Digital Channels in 2024, and the Highland Business Award for Community Engagement by a Business in 2024.
Parklands' colleagues have also received individual recognition, with the manager of Innis Mhor Care Home Highly Commended in the Inspirational Care Home Manager category at the 2026 Stars of Social Care Awards.
Parklands Care Homes is a leading independent care provider with 13 care homes across the Highlands, Moray, and Aberdeenshire, including our newest 58-bed Pittyvaich care home in Inverness.
Our ambitious expansion plans, including new facilities in Elgin, Turriff, and Alford, and enhancements to existing homes in Tain, Fortrose, and Muir of Ord, are set to significantly boost the Scottish economy.
