Durrants Village
Set amongst 30 acres of private parkland with its own lake, there are few more idyllic locations than Durrants Village. A place where relaxation and inspiration go hand in hand. Durrants Village is home to 173 exquisite two and three bedroom cottages and spacious two bedroom apartments. Beyond the village itself, you'll find delightful hamlets dating back to the 16th-century and pretty market towns with their smart boutiques and excellent restaurants - all framed by the natural splendour of the rolling Sussex Downs. It's a landscape as diverse as it is breath-taking.
Location
Spend a little time in the local area and you won't be surprised that it was favoured by the elite in the 1800s as a country retreat. Situated in an area of green belt near the pretty market town of Horsham, our village benefits from being surrounded by some of the most spectacular countryside imaginable.
In minutes you can be amongst the rolling splendour of the Sussex Downs - an area of outstanding natural beauty; but you're also really close to some outstanding urban fayre. A good choice of smart boutiques, high street shopping and some excellent restaurants are just a stone's throw away.
If you want to travel further afield, you'll find that getting down to the South Coast, Shoreham -By-Sea or Worthing is a breeze. Eyes on sunnier climes? You can be at Gatwick Airport in under 20 minutes, it's no wonder that this district is consistently named in the top 10 places to live in the UK.
Want to go the extra mile? There is a main railway station close by giving you access to a whole world of possibilities.
Wellbeing
You don't want to give up your independence, and you don't need to - Durrants offers all the support and reassurance you could hope for. Bluebird Care, one of the UK's leading homecare and live in care specialists, offer support and personalised care in the comfort and privacy of your own home 24/7.
What this means is you get peace of mind that should your needs change, your living arrangements can evolve to accommodate this. We want people to live the way they want to live for as long as they can, and we'll do everything we can to make this happen.
History
Durrants Village is built on the site of a disused sawmill in the hamlet of Faygate, which first appeared in records as far back as 1614.
A story which was published in the London papers of 1614 reported that a fearsome serpent or dragon lived in the forests near Faygate. However, this tale could well have been circulated to keep strangers away from the sensitive areas of the forest which were heavily frequented by the smugglers throughout the 17th and 18th Centuries.

Hospitality services
Durrants is a place where you can live happily and comfortably, safe in the knowledge we'll actively support you to maintain your independence as you grow older. We have a significant number of apartments in each village allocated as Hospitality Suites available to purchase or rent. For those who prefer an easier life, we offer a suite of hospitality services including daily hot food provision, extra laundry, and additional housekeeping services. Should you require temporary or longer-term personal care within the privacy of your own home, we have a preferred domiciliary care provider whom we can introduce. Of course, you are free to arrange any personal care yourself, should you wish to do so at any point in the future. We believe these services, offered within your own home, mean that you can remain independent so there is often no need for a care home - ever.
