Beechville provides residential, dementia and short-stay care for up to 63 residents in a peaceful, purpose-designed home in Bolton, Greater Manchester.

Once a Quaker home, Beechville has a long legacy of care and community. Today, it offers a safe, comfortable setting with en-suite bedrooms, cosy lounges, and a vibrant central coffee shop where residents, families and staff come together throughout the day.

Outdoors, the landscaped gardens include a courtyard with mature trees, bird feeders, raised beds, and a summer house gifted by a resident’s family. The space is used year-round for gardening, relaxing, and events such as barbecues and seasonal celebrations.

Meals are freshly prepared by an experienced head chef who also trains other MHA cooks. Menus are shaped by resident input and include hearty favourites, afternoon teas, and fun events like Sandwich Week. Families can book the coffee bar for private gatherings.

Life at Beechville includes music therapy, baking competitions, bingo, crafts, fitness sessions, and special visits—from llamas and opera singers to schoolchildren and scout groups. Regular trips and a full calendar keep the home lively and inclusive.

At Beechville, care isn’t just about support, it’s about creating a community where residents thrive. Whether you’re searching for yourself or a loved one, for residential, dementia or short-stay care, the team at Beechville are here to help.

Review from Marilyn P (Sister of Resident) published on 30 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My sister has been a resident in Beechville since December 2024. All the staff and carers have treated her with so much kindness, patience and loyalty. She has had help, the utmost care and understanding in what has been a very difficult part of her life and has been given lots of smiles, encouragement
, good company and friendship. I can only say how much we both will miss all the staff here who have looked after her so well and have endeavoured to find the right care for her needs.
The management team have always been cheerful, helpful and sympathetic to our needs. Telephone calls have always been answered quickly and current information given. Visiting has always been welcomed.

Thank you so much for your kind review. It's always a pleasure to care for your sister. I will be sure to pass on your thoughtful words to the team.

I looked at many dementia residential homes before choosing Beechville. Beechville is a cut above everywhere else I looked. The standard of care is excellent, all the staff from housekeepers to the manager are caring, & really helpful. They go above & beyond to care for my mum. There is a regular activity
program - something that is really important for someone living with dementia. Most importantly I know mum is in good hands with people who care. Thank you Beechville.

My father has been a resident at Beechville for 12 months. I have found the car really good, with a genuine family atmosphere. He is really well looked after, especially when medical interventions have been necessary. I feel totally reassured and am confident that he is safe, secure and happy. I have
also been made very welcome and feel part of the same big family.

Beechville provided a wonderful programme of events leading up to Christmas and New Year. A group of staff also gave up their their time to entertain on Christmas Day and on Christmas and New Years Eve. Cannot praise them enough for their dedication and care as they made it a time to enjoy and remember

When we first visited Beechville to see if it was suitable for our friend, we were struck by how light, bright and clean the environment is, but more especially by the kindness of the staff. Since our friend moved in, she has been treated with gentleness and care. The food is nourishing, and she has
put on weight. She was very anxious but is always smiling now. The range of activities is lovely, and the coordinator is very energetic. Our friend is warm and safe and no longer lonely.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was a resident in Beechville for 10 months. Right from when she first moved in she was treated with loving dignity by all of the staff. Her room was large, warm and comfortable with her own en-suite. All of the staff, carers, kitchen staff, cleaners, laundry etc were unfailingly polite and
cheerful to my mum and all of her visitors. We were always kept informed about her medical care. She gradually became more frail and was looked after beautifully by the carers, with regular input from district nurses. During her last few weeks, the family spent a lot of time with her and the Beechville staff extended their care to all of us - making sure that we had meals and drinks. She died last week peacefully at the age of 99. The family are so very glad that we chose Beechville to look after our beloved mother- Thank you to everyone.

The staff provide an excellent level care in comfortable surroundings. The food is made with fresh ingredients and is outstanding. However, the levels of communication needs improvement. We have not been made aware of our key worker (after 4 months) despite this being an action plan from a previous
comment by another user in January. Similarly, appointments are not always recorded accurately and decisions on care are made without consulting close family. With improved management Beechville could be an outstanding care home.

After looking at many care homes Beechville was the only one that felt right and ticked all our boxes. Since coming to Beechville I feel my dad has a new lease of life. The staff are truly wonderful with him, giving regular updates and going the extra mile with the personal touch. I like that he has
freedom of choice, he can watch tv, wander safely or join in the many activities on offer. I wish this level of care was available to all.

I have visited Beechville care home on a number of occasions. I have always found the home to be a friendly and inviting place with lovely private rooms for the residents. The home is always spotlessly clean and any members of staff I have met appear to genuinely care for the residents and treat them
with respect and kindness. A number of forms of stimulation are provided to ensure residents have a full and happy life. A home I would be happy to entrust with a close relative's care.

My mother has been in Beechville for 3 years now. Since the beginning, I have been very happy with the excellent standard of care she has received and the way she has been treated by all the staff. I feel she is happier now than she has been for many years.

When Mum was diagnosed with early-stage dementia and confined to a wheelchair, a friend recommended Beechville as her mother had excellent care there. As soon as Mum came to the home we realised what a special place it was. As a family, we have been delighted and impressed by the consistent quality
of the care she received from all the staff in the home. This includes medical knowledge, patience and warmth shown by staff, innovative entertainment planning and liaison with family members. Mum passed away in January and the tender management and care during this difficult time, which Mum and the family received, was amazing.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.600)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.600) out of 10 for Beechville is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.600 for Beechville is calculated as follows: ( (110 Excellents x 5) + (46 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 165 Ratings = 4.6
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Beechville is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 63 registered maximum number of service users is 12.6, which has been reached with 13 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
