RICHMOND PAINSWICK OFFERS THE ULTIMATE IN RETIREMENT LIVING IN THE COTSWOLDS

Richmond Painswick is a handsome collection of stone properties situated within four acres on the edge of Painswick in the Cotswolds. Blending particularly well with the local architecture, this new development is a top of the range retirement village that offers a first class lifestyle to its residents.

Richmond Villages, developers and operators of luxury retirement villages throughout the UK, are justly proud of this latest addition to its portfolio. The eye-catching development, which overlooks some of the most panoramic countryside views in the Cotswolds, offers a choice of properties to suit all needs. Regardless of a person’s retirement age, or level of fitness, Richmond Painswick has an option to suit.

Phase One at Richmond Painswick is now build-complete and comprises 18 luxury apartments for those who wish to live independently (known as independent living units). Phase Two, which is due to be completed early next year, is well underway, with this much larger phase providing a care centre with 38 one and two bedroom serviced suites (each with a kitchenette, sitting room and bedroom complete with en suite) and 24 close care bedrooms for those who need 24-hour care.

The facilities at Richmond Painswick will be in a league of their own. Communal areas such as the elegant drawing room and the Laurie Lee Restaurant (on a par with that of superior hotel) will be a focal point for those who enjoy socialising and taking part in the many activities and events organised by The Friends of Richmond. In addition, a café, shop, library and rooftop garden are sure to be popular meeting areas; a fountain dedicated to the memory of Laurie Lee is soon to be unveiled.

The Wellness Centre, part of Phase Two, is an inspired idea. This will include a spa, located on the lower garden level, with a pool, sauna and steam room; there will also be a fully-equipped gymnasium and studio.

Richmond Villages has an excellent track record across all its developments when it comes to security, offering great peace of mind to residents. At Richmond Painswick, for example, there is both 24 hour staff and CCTV.

Keith Cockell, founder and managing director of Richmond Villages says: "We are fully committed to providing first class retirement villages that offer a wonderful way of life for those who live in them. Our focus is very much on quality, with this evident at every turn, both in the properties themselves and in terms of the support and care we deliver."
