We hunted around for a suitable care home for my Aunt's (AJ) stay. Birkdale Tower appeared to be miles above other care homes in Southport.
Our first impression was very positive & the standard of care has been consistently high throughout her respite stay. The staff were all very attentive, kind
& generally focused on resident's well-being.
Thank you Birkdale Tower Team!

Birkdale Tower Lodge is an exceptional care home. It feels more like a hotel than a care home, with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. My sister is very well looked after and most importantly she is happy there.
The staff are kind, caring and treat her with dignity and respect at all times. It gives our
family real peace of mind. Thank you to the wonderful team for everything you do.

My grandad was admited to birkdale tower for restbite for a week. He got along so well with the staff. They were so caring and helpful with him and myself. The place is lovely, the atmosphere is great and such amazing food choices.

Everyone

My dad has been staying at Birkdale Tower for three months now and I am very pleased with his care. The staff and knowledgeable, friendly and very patient, and the facility itself is excellent. Super clean and homely. Everyone is very accommodating and they have really helped reassure me.

Can not say about value for money, do not know.
I am 80 years old and done voluntary work that has taken me into a few care/nursing homes over the years. Birkdale Tower is just the best 5 star. When you arrive you feel so welcomed. The staff are wonderful. When I come I feel as if I am having a day
out with my friend in a hotel. Well done to every one your all doing a wonderful job.
I wish you all a happy, healthy 2026.
Thank you all.

This was my Granny's second stay at Birkdale Tower Lodge for some respite, and once again the experience was excellent. From start to finish, she really enjoyed her visit.
I felt completely reassured knowing she was being so well looked after by such a lovely and attentive team. It was wonderful
to see her getting involved in activities and to see firsthand how genuinely cared for she was.
I would definitely recommend Birkdale Tower Lodge to anyone looking for supportive and compassionate care.
A big thank you to everyone at Birkdale Tower Lodge for taking such great care of my Granny.

Visited during a 100th birthday party. The Birkdale team put on an amazing spectacle for their resident. What an absolute credit to the community they are!

Since Dad transferred from respite services to Birkdale Tower Lodge, he has become relaxed, happy and his health has improved. The staff are conscientious and kind and genuinely have the residents' wellbeing at heart. There are a variety of activities to engage and entertain, but no one is
pressurised to take part. We've been delighted at how well Dad has settled in and would not consider anywhere else.

What a lovely, friendly and caring lodge. The staff are dedicated to providing a safe environment for our elderly people. Nothing seems too much trouble.
I am impressed by how well the team know each individual resident and caters to their needs.
A very happy place.

After being assessed and considered to be eligible for the home after 3 days we were informed that they could not meet his needs and he would have to move. In general the day staff were great but found the night staff to be very uncaring and inpatient. I found my partner in bed with his day clothes
on and soaking wet at 8am when i visited him early 12 times out of the four weeks he was there. Within the first week his glasses were lost and found the following day, and his hearing aids were lost never to be found. A large poster was placed in his room to indicate that his family would be doing his washing and no item of clothing was to be removed. Half of my partners clothes still went missing. When I complained his tooth brush was not being used as it was bone dry every morning i was told it had been recorded on his notes that his teeth had been brushed. I would never recommend this care home to anyone who wanted compassion and genuine care for their loved ones find somewhere else.

My sister went into Birkdale Tower Lodge quite recently. It is taking her time to settle. My first impression was how very nice it was, the decor and cleanliness are fantastic. I have stayed twice to have Sunday lunch with my sister and I found it most enjoyable. The staff are so very nice and so
helpful.
Nowhere is like home but Birkdale Tower Lodge comes as next best.

Outstanding care home. The staff are amazing. Friendly, caring and knowledgeable. The facilities are also really good. Both my parents were residents and they received such good care. I could not recommend enough.

My dad has now been a resident at Birkdale Tower Lodge for over fourteen months and whilst he will never feel as happy as he did in his own home, he has now adapted to communal Birkdale Tower Lodge with the support of wonderful staff and fellow residents around him.
The staff and building are
exceptional and there is always something to be involved in should he wish to participate. The lodge is cleaned to a high standard and it does not feel like a traditional care home but more like a hotel on occasions.

Always found staff helpful and polite. Just problem in evening returning, no one on reception.

Dad stayed at Birkdale Tower Lodge for respite care during July and August. It was a difficult decision at first but due to family circumstances, it was what was best for us all. Having met the staff on our initial visit to this lovely home, we were reassured that Dad's care would be in safe hands.
He came home at the end of August and is looking forward to a return visit next year - he misses.
As a family, we cannot thank the staff enough for the care, involvement and friendship shown during his time there - I'm looking forward t a time when I can stay too!

Overall experience is very good. All staff are very pleasant and helpful; although it would be helpful if everyone wore a name badge.
I have had a few issues with laundry items going missing even though my name has been sewn in all items. Also could clothes by hung up or folded when back from
laundry as my daughter has to tidy my clothes.
