Clarkson Court

Clarkson Court was purpose built by McCarthy & Stone for retirement living. The development consists of 70 one and two-bedroom retirement apartments for the over 60s. The recently refurbished homeowners' lounge is a great space for social events and, for added convenience, there is a guest suite which visitors can book into at a cost of £30 per night. The dedicated House Manager is on site during the day to take care of things and make you feel at home. There's no need to worry about the burden of maintenance costs as the service charge covers the cost of all external maintenance, gardening and landscaping, external window cleaning, buildings insurance, water rates, security and the energy costs of the laundry room, homeowners lounge and other communal areas. It is a condition of purchase that residents must meet the age requirement of 60 years of age or over.

Social Lifestyle

One of the greatest benefits of being a McCarthy Stone homeowner is becoming part of a community of remarkable individuals, who embody a ‘life, well lived’. It’s about friendship, laughter and love. New adventures. Making memories. And making the most of the here and now.

But don’t take our word for it, see what our homeowners have to say:

“Our social calendar is busier than ever, with something for all tastes and abilities.”

Landscaped Gardens

Clarkson Court boasts landscaped gardens which wraps around the development. Paved pathways allow you to explore the grounds easily, whilst the ample seating provides the perfect place for you to sit and enjoy the gardens blossom and bloom throughout the seasons. All the communal grounds are fully maintained, however if you do enjoy gardening, there is always opportunities to get involved as much as you like. Many of our 'green-fingered' communities have raised beds where homeowners can grow their own produce and still keep a hand in their favourite pastime.

“I have enjoyed continuing to do the gardening by helping the on-site gardeners with the lovely, landscaped gardens we have.” – McCarthy Stone Homeowner
