    Welcome to Retirement Villages
    image cannot be displayed

    Welcome to Retirement Villages Group Ltd. We hope you find our website informative and useful to you.

    We also hope it inspires you to want to get in touch and find out more about this increasingly popular lifestyle option for yourself, a relative or friend.

    Our Portfolio

    We are proud to say we now have 14 villages in our portfolio, spread across 11 counties in the southern half of the UK. Each one is very distinctive from the next but all provide the same equally high property specifications, a wide range of facilities and leisure amenities, impeccable service levels delivered by our teams of staff, and varying levels of care support to suit your needs, now or in the future, including our own registered domiciliary care service.

    What you can expect from a retirement village lifestyle

    Whether you are looking for an apartment, a bungalow or a cottage, in a beautiful setting, our villages can provide this, and yet so much more...

    We always maintain that while we design and build our villages, it is the residents who bring them to life. A retirement villages' lifestyle allows you to do what you choose to do, not what you have to do. We take care of the day to day chores while you get on and simply enjoy your days, in the peace and tranquillity of your own private retirement home, or within the wider village setting at a village social event or outing.

    Our rich history and our pioneering approach

    Our company has been building villages for more than 30 years. We were responsible for bringing the retirement village model to the UK in the early 1980s when we opened the first of our retirement communities, Elmbridge Village in Cranleigh, Surrey.

    Our model allows you to own your own property in a retirement village, keeping an investment in the residential property market while having access to care and support where available.

    What our Residents are saying....

    • Introduction

      image cannot be displayed

      Retirement village residents know better than anyone what life is really like in one of our retirement communities. 

      We regularly ask for feedback; we also receive letters into our head office in Leatherhead, Surrey, from delighted new purchasers and also residents who have lived in one of our villages for many years now but want to take the time to write to applaud their particular village service or staff.

      All of the residents included here have given their permission for us to share their personal feedback with you. We hope you find it of use:


    Testimonials from Buyers

    • Buyer Testimonial

      Mrs Ros Shirran, Cedars Village, Hertfordshire
      This is a letter received into our head office from Mrs Ros Shirran, a resident currently living at Cedars Village who talks about her own experience of life in a retirement village and what it means for her. Mrs Shirran has been kind enough to allow us to reproduce her exact words as part of our Testimonials section for which we are very grateful...

    • Buyer Testimonial

      Keith and Jackie Richardson, Charters, West Sussex
      "We bought off-plan which some people, including our children, thought was a bit of a risk, but we've most definitely done the right thing. In fact, our children think it's wonderful and say they want to move in after us!"

    • Buyer Testimonial

      Pat Garland, Avonpark Village, Wiltshire
      "I have been here since June 2001 and have made many lasting friendships. I take delight in organising events and must have managed over 100. I cannot think of a better place to be in my 'old' age, which I now consider, at 80+, to have reached!" 

    • Buyer Testimonial

      Ina Hopkins, Cedars Village, Hertfordshire
      "When we moved to Cedars Village we found we had bought not just a bungalow but a way of life. You can be as active or as laid back as you wish but there will always be a smile and a welcoming hand.

    • Buyer Testimonial

      Patrick Drennan, Lime Tree Village, Warwickshire
      "It's a beautiful place to live but it's the companionship which is the best part. A lot of people say they've come to start a new life and that's how it feels. No one is old.

    • Buyer Testimonial

      Gillie and Peter Byrom, The Priory, Devon
      "My husband Peter and I welcomed our downsize and move to 'independent living' at The Priory as we were spending too much time maintaining our home and garden of 20+ years. As a self-employed portrait painter I had always had a studio at home making enamel miniatures to commission. Now I had to find one to rent elsewhere. For almost 4 years I've been commuting to Dartington Space about half an hour away. Peter retired some years ago but I doubt artists ever really 'retire'. Apart from making miniatures, I'm making the transition of teaching my skills as well as finally getting round to writing a book for students of enamelling. It's a bonus to belong to the Priory community which we both find very friendly and pleasant to have shifted the focus of our lives from property to people."
