Care home launches ‘five-star’ facility

A CARE for the elderly provider based in Lytham St Annes has launched the second phase of its flagship £5.8m development.

Lakeview Rest Homes has opened The Moorings, a 78-en-suite bedroomed home with the creation of 50 jobs.

Billed by the company as “like a five-star hotel” it includes an indoor bowling and putting green, a hydrotherapy spa with therapeutic Jacuzzi and mood lighting, a roof terrace with water fountains and a games room.

The first phase, which opened in December 2013 with 29 rooms, also features a hair and beauty salon, an on-site restaurant and chef and a 12-seater cinema.

The Moorings is part of the Lakeview Rest Homes group, a family-owned business established in 1987 which runs four care homes in Lytham.

Rosewood Lodge, Lakeview and Newfield Lodge are part of the Lakeview Rest Homes group, along with The Moorings.

In its most up to date accounts to July 31 2013, Lakeview’s turnover was £2.33m nad the companies net assets were valued at £2.9m.

Managing director Nick Wood said: We specialise in providing a personal level of care which recognises the importance of independence, dignity and choice, and The Moorings is a prime example of this.

The 5-star hotel principles we bring to our residents affords them absolute dignity, and offers an unrivalled luxurious independence.

“Our team of 50 provides the highest quality of care and outstanding facilities to those who would otherwise struggle to access them. We are placing Lakeview firmly at the heart of the community.”
