Lambrook Court

Constructed in 2018 Lambrook Court is a stunning development by multi award-winning retirement specialist McCarthy Stone. A ‘Retirement Living Plus’ development designed for independent living for those aged over 70 years Lambrook Court offers the peace-of-mind provided by the day-to-day support of our Estate Manager and staff who oversee the smooth running of the development. The development enjoys fantastic communal facilities including a beautiful homeowner lounge leading onto a raised deck, Bistro with a fantastic, varied and inexpensive menu, laundry, scooter store and landscaped gardens.

Homeowners also benefit from extensive domestic and care packages being available to suit individual needs and budgets. All apartments are equipped with a 24-hour emergency call facility and sophisticated intercom system providing both a visual and verbal link to the main development entrance. There is also the excellent guest suite widely used by visiting family and friends for which a small charge per night applies.
It is so easy to make new friends and to lead a busy and fulfilled life at Lambrook Court with a list of regular activities to choose from. Often these include; coffee mornings, film nights, exercise classes, games and card evenings, cheese and wine evenings, guest speakers and occasional trips. Whilst there is something for everyone there is certainly no obligation to participate and home owners tend to ‘dip in and out’ of activities as they wish.

There are lovely communal landscaped gardens around the development. In addition to the excellent underfloor heating within the apartments, there is an economic heat recovery (heat exchange) system utilising the hot air generated within the property and recirculating the heat back into the principal rooms. There is also a communal laundry room with self service washing machines and tumble dryer.
