Nestled in a stunning location with picturesque views of the Copt Heath golf course adjacent to the Knowle site off the A4141 Warwick Road, the home also offers respite care. Many of the new bedrooms are designed for couples, with private lounge areas for where they can enjoy a mid-morning coffee and newspaper.

Review from P L (Daughter of Resident) published on 18 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I do not usually write reviews but feel compelled to share the positive experience we have had since Mum moved into Birchmere Mews.
A difficult decision, and sometimes challenging transition, was made so much easier by the staff who have been incredibly helpful, warm, friendly and supportive.
The
sensitivity of the staff towards Mum and the family has been touching and deeply appreciated.
Management staff at Birchmere have often provided a listening ear, are quick to respond to any questions or concerns, and they have personally gone the extra mile for Mum.
Now, two months after Mum's move, she has settled nicely. We all have. The manager and her wider staff are to be commended for this. We are all in a happier place because of them.

Moving into a care home is clearly a daunting experience, but all the staff at Birchmere Mews welcomed my Mother on her first day and instantly made her feel at home. There is a wide range of imaginative activities to suit all abilities and interests, with residents encouraged to participate and maybe
try something new. The menu is varied and the cakes are lovely! There is a well-equipped hairdressing salon onsite and regular visits by doctors and a chiropodist, and with staff making all the necessary arrangements, family members don't need to be involved. Whenever we visit, the friendly staff instantly know who we are, where my Mother is and what she's been doing. We are very happy with our choice of care home and don't think we could have found better.

I have been delighted to see my friend looking so happy, clean and well-dressed whilst she has been on respite care in Birchmere Mews Care Home. She has been encouraged to be her "best-self".
I stayed and had a meal with my friend which was of wonderful quality. It was well served and tasted delicious.
Congratulations to the chef.
Staff and management are kind, congenial and work well together as well as being exceptionally supportive and kind to the residents. Well done!

Review from Lynne T (Daughter of Resident) published on 3 October 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After many years of refusing any outside of family help my 99-year-old mother agreed to nine days respite in Birchmere Mews whilst I took a holiday. On telephoning her from Cornwall I was told 'I'm staying!'. Since then she has settled well, made friends and joined in most of the activities. As a family,
we have been delighted and relieved by the whole process and particularly by the warmth and support shown to her and us by every member of staff. This has been particularly in evidence today - Mum has become unwell and the care shown to her plus the communication with me regarding her condition has been exemplary. She telephoned me to tell me how kind everyone has been to her and to reassure me she feels better. She, and I, could not ask for more.

I am absolutely delighted with my choice of Birchmere Mews Care Home for my mum. I had looked at four dementia care homes and Birchmere jumped out as an absolute star because the staff, particularly five members of staff, created such a great first impression. They are so warm and welcoming. There are
great activities for the residents if they wish to participate, amazing choice of food, beautiful ensuite bedrooms and it just felt right for my mum. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff and both senior care staff are meticulous in following up with the doctor, district nurses etc. It is such a hard decision to make, placing a loved one in the care of others, but the home has exceeded my expectations. Both my mum and I are treated with kindness, warmth, patience and compassion.

My aunt has been residing at Birchmere Mews since last November. From the moment I went to look at this care home, the staff have been helpful, attentive, courteous and so friendly. All the staff have made my aunt feel at home there, and nothing is too much trouble. She loves to go out on the regular
trips around the area and there is always some sort of activity going on. It is very well-run and extremely clean, and all my aunt's needs are met with a smile and a cheery word. My aunt is often encouraged to have a coffee and a chat with the lovely staff. The team really try and make the residents stay there as happy as possible. I would have no hesitation in recommending Birchmere Mews - what a super care home. Well done to everyone who works there.

Very caring staff. Mum loves her room, she is so much happier now she has someone around all day. The only area Mum talks about in a negative way is the food. She enjoys her breakfast and especially the soup but is less keen on the main meals.

We are really pleased with how well and how quickly Mom has settled in at Birchmere - many thanks to all the staff who have helped with the transition. The facilities are excellent, everything is nice and clean, and it's good to know Mom is eating and drinking well - she has even put on a bit of weight
which is great. The entertainment team are also fantastic and have got Mom involved in lots of different activities including dancing, painting, singing and a trip to the supermarket. Would highly recommend!

I would just like to write a review about Birchmere Mews Care Home to put on record for anyone who is needing a care home for anyone who is special to them.
If you choose Birchmere all I can say is you will not be disappointed. My mother has been there eighteen months now and being as though I live
40 miles away, the peace of mind that she is being well looked after by the excellent staff there really helps me to stop worrying. I would highly recommend this home to anyone, the activities they do with the residents and trips out are brilliant and also the advent of social media, I like how on those platforms they keep it all up to date regularly so I can see what my mum's been up to, which is normally revolving eating, drinking and most definitely, dancing.
I’d also like to commend all the staff who also have a smile and make you feel very welcome when you arrive, especially the receptionist who has to put up with me when I come in.
Well done to everyone at Birchmere and thank you so much for looking after my dear mum.

My father has been a resident for just over a year now and the staff have worked hard to successfully settle him into his new life. He has had a couple of brief visits to hospital and on both occasions the staff were extremely caring and professional in arranging his return. I particularly appreciated
the way in which I was kept informed at all times. It is always comforting to know how well he is being looked after.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mum and dad have/are receiving excellent care from professional and truly caring carers. Neither of my parents has been easy residents to manage, but the patience and care shown by carers and support staff have been wonderful to see. This isn't an easy job and not well paid, so I have immense admiration
for those who carry out the role with such heart and kindness. Support staff, are also a joy, including reception and laundry staff and others I have forgotten to mention. We have, however, had a glitch around payments, where we have been charged for a further month's stay, even though our dad had passed away. We appreciate automation is probably at the heart of this, but it has taken nearly a month and several interventions to try to get this put right and we're not quite there yet. This isn't a great situation to be in at an already emotive time. In all honesty, I'd put 4.5 stars where I've marked up 4, so please take this into account if you can. A massive thank you.

My mum has been a resident at Birchmere Mews for almost 2 years and our experience of the care and support given to her in that time has been exemplary. It continues to be so in 2024. After a care plan review, Mum has moved into a new room. The home manager sorted this out swiftly with a selection of
rooms for Mum to choose from and on the day of the move, staff were on hand to help us with the process. All staff were aware of Mum’s move and are continuing to ensure that she is happy in her new surroundings. We are always greeted with a smile when we visit Mum.

I had to make a big decision by putting both my parents into a care home recently, which was a bit distressing. However, with the help of the carers and the admin staff, this was made very easy. Their knowledge and understanding made everything run smoothly. They have taken a few weeks to get used to
their new environment, but the carers have been very kind and nothing has been any trouble. I would have no hesitation in recommending Birchmere to anyone else considering a move for one of their relatives or loved ones.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.844)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.844) out of 10 for Birchmere Mews Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.844 for Birchmere Mews Care Home - Avery Healthcare is calculated as follows: ( (261 Excellents x 5) + (44 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 307 Ratings = 4.844
  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 Birchmere Mews Care Home - Avery Healthcare is based on 26 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 26 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.
