Luxury retirement
homes for you

“It’s wonderful here – very quiet. Everybody is lovely but we don’t live in each other’s pockets. You have a choice whether you want to mix with people or not – there’s absolutely no pressure. We all respect each other – and we respect each other’s privacy. The communal gardens are lovely – we walk around at about 5 pm and take a look at the trees and the birds. It’s such a peaceful place to live – there’s a wonderful sense of tranquillity here.”

Adrian and Elizabeth Sadler, Hampton Manor

“There’s a really good sense of community at our Beechcroft development – and we’ve made some new friends. Everything is coming together really well now that most of the neighbours have moved in”

Mike Andrew and Francis Langley, Orford Place, Ham Common

“I was a little worried that downsizing to a smaller home would prove too difficult but I am so glad I did. I love my house – it’s so convenient and compact. I have a small, private patio and every day, when I’m home, I take a walk around the landscaped gardens. Often when I’m busy indoors, I’ll realise that I haven’t had any fresh air so I’ll head outside – there are so many lovely shrubs and plants here to look at.”

Mrs Martin, Orford Place, Ham Common

“I was living alone in a large house with a garden of about a third of an acre – and there was just too much maintenance. The location wasn’t ideal for retirement either: the village was small, without any local facilities. I decided it was better to make a move whilst I was fit and able to do so.”

Mrs Denton, St Albans

“We have a team of gardeners to handle the professional gardening work, including mowing the lawns, but every day I spend time sweeping and cleaning the pathways and the car park and checking on the properties here. There’s an abundance of trees at Hampton Manor and it’s important to keep the leaves swept up and to maintain the private and roof top gardens. I like the estate to look kept and tidy, as much as mother nature will allow.”

Wayne Madeley, Estate Manager

“My wife saw an advertisement for The Sidings in ‘The Daily Telegraph.’ We made an appointment to view the Wheatley development and the new properties. We really liked what we saw and especially the two-bedroom show home which we bought. The property we chose has some nice private outside space – a balcony and a patio garden – as well as a sunroom.”

Mr & Mrs Mole, Wheatley

“We absolutely love our apartment, Hampton Manor and Godalming. Our apartment has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large balcony and beautiful views over Farncombe Common. It’s just perfect for us. We have had years of doing decorating – and we wanted something that would be easy to manage. The communal gardens will be delightful when the work is completed. Living here, we’ll be able to see our daughter’s children more often – which will be lovely”

Mr & Mrs Higgins, Godalming

“I liked the idea of living in Wheatley. Having spent years living in London, I wanted to be near a city again and, living here, I have the best of both worlds – a home in a village with everything on hand but close to Oxford.”

Mr Gary Sherwood, Wheatley
