Pym Court

Pym Court is a stunning retirement development for the over 70's. Even though our retirement properties in Topsham offer you the perfect opportunity to downsize, you’ll never feel like you’re making any sacrifices. This is because, on the development, you’ll find everything you could possibly need to enjoy a full and active retirement. This includes a bistro and a communal lounge that regularly hosts events, along with a wellness suite for some 'me time'. There is also a guest suite for when family and friends come to stay, and pets are more than welcome.

Pym Court allows Homeowners to live independently with support to suit their needs. The development has staff on-site 24-hours a day, 365 days a year, so help is always available in case of emergency. Homeowners also benefit from tailor-made support packages, plus one hour of domestic assistance is included within the service charge each week. You’ll be able to decide which chores you want taken care of, so you’ll have more time to do the things you love - but, you’ll still be able to keep your independence and make use of the stunning landscaped gardens.

The Local Area

Topsham is a desirable and quirky town that boasts a selection of independent retailers. Within Topsham, there’s a popular antiques centre, an authentic Sunday market and plenty of local stores where the owners are incredibly passionate about their goods.
Within the town, there’s also a collection of distinctive buildings, including 17th century merchant houses that sit along The Strand. One of these is the Topsham Museum, where a number of interesting exhibitions are held.
If you like to get out and explore further afield, then you’ll be pleased to know that Pym Court is located on a main bus route, with bus stops immediately outside the development. The development is also close to Topsham railway station, which sits on the Avocet Line. All trains from Exmouth to Exeter St David’s stop at Topsham, and there’s a half-hourly daytime service in each direction.

With so much to see, do and explore in the local area, it’s perhaps no wonder that The Sunday Times voted Topsham as the best place to live in the South West in April 2019.
