The Willows, Marton Moss

Unique Style of Boutique Care

The Willows Care Home, locally known simply as ‘The Willows’, is a highly regarded boutique residence in the Fylde Coast area of Lancashire.

The Willows is a compact, specially designed complex with a limited number of floors, providing exclusively ground-level accommodations. In this setting, there are no inclines to climb or elevators to use when accessing the bedrooms, orangery, or shared lounges and dining spaces.

Each resident’s living space is both cosy and well-lit, featuring the added benefit of private access to an outdoor garden area or patio within our secure, protected premises. Our facility comprises a total of twenty-six charming bedrooms, with one of them being designed to comfortably accommodate a couple.

What Boutique Care Means at The Willows

At The Willows, “boutique care” means personalised support delivered with warmth, attention to detail, and a genuine focus on each resident’s wellbeing. As a smaller, privately run home, we’re able to truly get to know every individual — their routines, preferences, and personal story.

From tailored daily activities to home-cooked meals made to residents’ tastes, every aspect of life at The Willows is thoughtfully designed around comfort and choice. Residents are encouraged to personalise their rooms, maintain hobbies, and take part in activities that bring them joy.

Our care team works closely with families to create individual care plans that evolve as needs change, ensuring consistency and trust. Whether it’s a favourite cup of tea in the garden or quiet time in our lounge, boutique care at The Willows means living with dignity, respect, and a real sense of home.

Staying Active and Involved

Recognizing the importance of staying physically and mentally active is a crucial part of our care philosophy at The Willows. We make every effort to ensure that residents engage in activities that are meaningful and enjoyable to them. We’ve observed that pre-planned social activities don’t always work as intended due to factors like residents’ willingness to participate or staff being occupied. Some find it too structured. Therefore, we aim to be flexible in supporting our residents’ interests and hobbies and offer spontaneous activities. To facilitate this, we have a full-time Lifestyle and Wellbeing coordinator.

Our coordinator dedicates her time to the residents, planning daily activities based on individual interests and preferences. Activities take place in various communal areas, with the orangery and Bistro being central hubs. Residents often enjoy activities like painting, flower arranging, and baking, and many like to join in. Families are welcome to participate and can use our Bistro Day room for refreshments. You can find our sample Activities Planner in the reception area of the home. We believe that social activities for older adults don’t need to be elaborate, just simple and enjoyable.
