Curious about life at Birch Lea Park? Hear from some of our residents:

“This is the best move I’ve ever made and I am so glad that I did it. If you don’t want to mix, if you want to have your time for yourself, you don’t have to. But the place being the way it is, you find you want to. It’s lovely, it’s home from home, it’s everything.” – Sandra, 76

“We looked around some other places in the area, but we loved Birch Lea Park straight away. It’s magnificent. If we need somebody, we just ring the bell, and somebody will come and help us. Although we’ve not needed them so far, having people available 24-7 just gives us peace of mind.” – Mike, 77
