Birchfield is a family run home and we endeavour to always provide that extra ‘personal’ touch to make our Home as friendly and welcoming as possible whilst providing the highest possible standard of care and cleanliness within calm and luxurious surroundings. The property dates back to the 1890s and was originally two residential properties; The Willows, which was a vicarage, and Wellfield. The sympathetic conversion in 1987 to a Care Home has meant that the building has retained most of its original features and all of its character and charm. Birchfield is set in its own grounds and is surrounded by beautiful, towering trees thus affording it a very private aspect. The Home is situated in a highly sought after residential area of Blackburn, Lancashire, near to Witton Country Park and within easy reach of Blackburn town centre and the local amenities. Birchfield Care Home, Blackburn, Lancashire is a luxury Care Home of the highest quality and we pride ourselves on maintaining very affordable accommodation.
