Retirement villages in the UK
ExtraCare retirement villages offer more than just a new place to live – they provide a fresh start and a vibrant community for over 55s. Our charitable trust is dedicated to creating inspirational retirement villages that empower healthy, active, and independent later living. We believe that health, age or financial means should be no barrier to an enhanced quality of life.
At our retirement villages, we prioritise supported independence with residents enjoying social and leisure opportunities. If care is needed residents have the option of receiving support in the privacy of their own home.
Our village homes are built and equipped to the highest standards and are protected with safety features such as closed-circuit security cameras and emergency pull cords in every room. Additionally, residents have access to a superb variety of facilities, including libraries, IT facilities, bistros, bars, gyms, beauty salons, and more.
Our retirement communities are diverse and fun, with exciting activities and opportunities to engage with people of all generations. Each village centre serves as a social hub for residents and local communities, welcoming family, visitors, and friends.
With onsite landscaped gardens to relax in, beauty salons to be pampered in, or a bistro to socialise in, ExtraCare retirement villages are the perfect place to embrace a new chapter full of promise and possibility.
Resident Story
Come and have a look, you’ll love it. We aren’t lonely anymore, you have people around you to make you feel safe. The staff are so approachable, I love it, there really is nothing I don’t like about it. I thought I had no life before, but this place has given me a new lease for life.

Every Friday night we meet at one of our apartments and toast to friendship. We then enjoy a G&T and fish and chip Friday night and come here to enjoy the Piazza. We absolutely love it!
