Pym Court

Pym Court is a stunning McCarthy Stone development, having been completed in 2022. It 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 can also benefit from tailor-made support packages and an hour of domestic assistance per week is included within the service charge. 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.
There are a variety of regular activities to choose from including; coffee mornings, film nights and themed events. Whilst there is something for everyone there is certainly no obligation to participate and home owners can ‘dip in and out’ of activities or quite naturally, remain as private as they wish.

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. There is also a guest suite for when family and friends come to stay, and pets are more than welcome.
