We’re pleased to announce the opening of Lunderston House, Kibble’s latest Residential Children’s House, set in the charming coastal village of Inverkip.
Lunderston House offers beautiful four-bedroom accommodation for children and young people from the age of five onwards. The house is warm, welcoming and modern in style, creating a child-friendly home that has been sensitively designed to meet the needs of young people with experience of trauma and/or adversity.
Making a House a Home
Lunderston House has been designed in-line with Kibble’s Therapeutic, Trauma-informed Model. Echoed across all our services, this ensures all aspects of young people’s care, from the nature inspired interiors, large landscaped gardens, skilled staff team and seamless integration with other services, promotes an environment where young people are safe.
The rhythms and routines at Lunderston House are typical of traditional family-living, with a comfortable and modern living room, large open-plan kitchen and dining room to prepare and enjoy mealtimes together, sizable bedrooms with en-suite facilities and walk in showers and a large garden to explore and enjoy hours of play. There are spaces to play computer games, watch films or curl up on the sofa with a book and a hot chocolate. On the children’s request, there is a dedicated arts and crafts area complete with colouring in books, kinetic sand, craft kits and lots of games.
Lunderston House is a large, impressive bungalow surrounded by rolling fields and stunning hillside views. Children can enjoy countryside walks and get to know their inquisitive equestrian neighbours in the nearby paddock.
Anchored in the Community
On our doorstep is the scenic Lunderston Bay, with its sandy beaches, abundant wildlife, coffee shop and rugged coastal paths. The perfect spot of a picnic. The house is also close to Kip Marina – a great spot to watch the sunsets over the firth of Clyde, enjoy a boat trip and maybe even catch a glimpse of the friendly dolphins! Inverkip is renowned for its welcoming community, hosting regular events, recreational and sporting activities. The children who stay at Lunderston House are encouraged to enjoy all that the community has to offer, taking part in drama classes, football camps and clubs to meet new friends.
