Retirement homes in Devon

Peaceful and beautiful surroundings – retirement homes in Devon

With two separate and distinctive coastlines, north and south, two wild and beautiful moorlands, Exmoor and Dartmoor, and the delightful, historic cities of Exeter and Plymouth, Devon has a lot more to it than meets the eye.

There are lively market towns like Tavistock, noted for local produce, traditional crafts and a friendly welcome. You’ll find traditional seaside resorts like Torquay and Sidmouth, popular for holidays since Victorian times and retaining a real flavour of the past. There are historic attractions aplenty, with splendid castles at Drewsteignon and Totnes, and the South Devon Steam railway in Buckfastleigh all easily accessed from our retirement developments in Devon.

Stylish living on the English Riviera

Sachs Lodge is an exclusive retirement development located in the desirable residential area of Wellswood Village, Torquay on the beautiful English Riviera.

Wellswood Village is just a few minutes’ walk from Sachs Lodge and offers everyday services and independent retailers such as a Post Office, hairdressers, cafes and restaurants and with the coastal footpath and Babbacombe Beach nearby you can also enjoy seaside views whenever you wish.

Tavistock - a charming market town on the edge of Dartmoor National Park

Fitzford Lodge is a collection of 48 one and two-bedroom retirement apartments located opposite The Meadows; a lovely green space through which the River Tavy and the Tavistock canal flow.

Tavistock boasts a flourishing High Street with an excellent selection of high street names and independent retailers as well as the pannier market which offers fresh produce and local crafts. In 2017 this thriving market town was once again named as one of the Sunday Times best places to live.

Further afield there is plenty of scope for exploring either further into Devon or across the water into Cornwall. Head west to South East Cornwall and the beautiful Tamar Valley or east to discover the moorland’s rolling hills and majestic tors.

Sidford, a gateway to the Jurassic Coast

Lockyer Lodge is a collection of 40 one and two-bedroom retirement apartments located in Sidford, a pretty village on the outskirts of the popular seaside town of Sidmouth in Devon.

Sidmouth offers Regency history and architecture, great shopping and year-round entertainment at The Manor Pavilion Theatre and Arts Centre as well as a local independent cinema.  Sidmouth Folk Week attracts thousands of visitors annually and is a week-long celebration of music, dance and song.

This new development is close to Sidford High St and within a mile of the nearest Waitrose. The famous fish and chip shop, ‘Bloaters’ is also only a short distance away, perfect for Fridays!

Getting around from our retirement developments in Devon is easy – the M5 motorway runs north from Exeter, there are rail services throughout the county and Exeter International Airport offers domestic and international flights.

But the main appeal of life in Devon is that it is just so relaxing – which is just what you deserve!
