Your guide to the best care homes around Wirral.
The Wirral borough is known as one of North West England’s most desirable places to live, and care homes here reflect that, with luxury options providing high-quality care. These homes are packed with state-of-the-art facilities loved by residents, including hair salons, communal and private dining spaces, bar areas, tranquil gardens, spaces for rest and relaxation, and even cinema rooms. If these facilities sound good, then check out Ridgewood Court, which is managed by Sanctuary Care and features all of these!
Local homes also take advantage of this popular setting by taking residents on outings to nearby hotspots, such as New Brighton Promenade and Birkenhead Park. Others have strong connections to healthcare services, including Arrowe Park Hospital and a network of local GP practices.
Alongside outings, daily life in Wirral care homes is shaped by resident-led activities. These might include craft groups, baking clubs, seated exercise, or musical afternoons with visiting performers. Cosy lounges, garden terraces, and accessible activity rooms provide inviting spaces for residents to socialise and stay active.
Despite all of this, the cost of care in Wirral is often more accessible than in other parts of the country. Residential care typically averages around £1,100 per week, while nursing care can cost slightly more, depending on the level of clinical support and additional services. Through Lottie, you can compare homes clearly and see exactly what’s included in each fee, whether that’s tailored nursing or dementia care, salon visits, or physiotherapy.
