We’re excited to share the opening of Hallhill Cottage, our beautiful residential children’s house in Howwood, Renfrewshire.
Hallhill Cottage is a warm and welcoming children’s house for young people aged 5 – 21. Situated in a stunning semi-rural location in Howwood, Renfrewshire, Hallhill Cottage offers nurturing four-bedroomed accommodation for young people with experience of trauma, adversity or disrupted family circumstances. In an idyllic setting, Hallhill Cottage is surrounded by rugged countryside, abundant wildlife and breath-takingly unspoiled views. There’s even the occasional visit from majestic roe deer, and there are friendly horses in neighbouring paddocks. Hallhill Cottage offers a beautiful, safe haven for children and young people to grow up and make special childhood memories.
Making a House a Home
All aspects of Hallhill Cottage are grounded in Kibble’s Therapeutic, Trauma-informed Model. Echoed across our services, this ensures all aspects of young people’s care, from the natural interiors, tranquil grounds, skilled staff teams and seamless integration with other services, promotes an environment where young people are safe.
The daily rhythms and routines of Hallhill Cottage are typical of modern family-living. It has a large, comfortable living room which opens out onto a large garden, an open plan playroom and dining area to enjoy mealtimes together, a large bright kitchen, and an adjoining utility room perfect to brush off muddy wellies from playing outside.
Entwined in the Community
Whilst enjoying the beauty of the countryside, Hallhill Cottage only a short distance from local amenities. Nearby you’ll find Johnstone centre, with its range of transport links, shops, cafes and restaurants. Young people are encouraged to enjoy all that the community has to offer from attending local groups or clubs, to visiting local attractions, cafes and shops. This ensures young people feel very much a part of their community and encourages them to build new friendships.
From Brownies to badminton, taekwondo the table tennis, the sky is the limit when it comes to enjoying new experiences and discovering new hobbies and interests.
