The streets of Hoylake surrounding Montrose Court have been beautifully decorated with pink blossom lights following sponsorship from local groups and businesses.  The tree was sponsored on behalf of the owners at Montrose Court.  They are delighted as it is the first tree to be seen on entering Hoylake.

Montrose has welcomed new staff member Elaine Lampkin to our housekeeping department, she has quickly become a wonderful addition to the team.  We congratulate our Duty Manager Michelle Heron who has just married her long-time partner John.

Owners were entertained with Christmas carols from the Song Bird as the Christmas lights were switched on.  Mulled wine and mince pies were enjoyed by all who came.

As an 18th birthday treat, Montrose Court has had some redecoration work and is looking superb! Steel work and render has been repainted, apartment doors are fresh with new furniture and our main lift is as good as new.  The Court remains popular with potential buyers as news of our social activities and friendly atmosphere spreads far and wide.

Owners recently held a coffee morning in aid of St John’s Hospice raising £330 which was enjoyed by both Owners and visitors.

This year we have also introduced theme evening meals and so far have hosted an Oriental Night, Mediterranean Night and French Night.  Our next is Winter Warmers before we start planning for Christmas.

In honor of the Queen’s 90th birthday, we held our own Royal fancy dress party with high tea and an afternoon of music and dancing. We enjoyed a fish and chip supper evening followed by a film night in support of the RNLI. Our MacMillan Coffee Morning was a great success and brought the local community together. In support of the Wirral Festival of Firsts, our social committee hosted a fantastic exhibition of childhood memorabilia which was a huge success and raised £220 for Claire House.

Montrose Court has enjoyed a St Georges Day Buffet and are preparing for a Royal theme fancy dress party for the Queen’s 90th in June. We will serve high tea followed by a rock and roll duo to continue the party. Photos will follow!

July will see our lounge transformed for Wimbledon, with table top posies and dining table tennis courts... Strawberries and cream all round in front of the big screen.

The Owners welcomed Steph Moore as their new General Manager in December 2015.  She joins us from Saga Holidays and Warners Hotels and brings a wealth of knowledge and experience.  She is really enjoying her new role at the Court.
