Show more "Exclusive to the over 60s, this retirement development consists of 45 one or two-bedroom apartments conveniently located close to the banks of the river Stour in historic Blandford Forum, Dorset, on the site of the old brewery.

With our light and spacious one or two-bedroom retirement apartment, you’ll enjoy intelligent design, high specifications and quality modern flourishes. Many properties will benefit from balconies too. This retirement community will also offer a luxurious communal lounge where you can meet with friends and neighbours, a beautiful shared garden to relax and socialise in and a hotel-style guest suite for when people come to stay.

All our new retirement properties have integrated security systems, including a 24-hour emergency call out system, fire detection and camera entry system. There will also be a friendly House Manager onsite in office hours for added peace of mind.

Just across the River Stour, you’ll find the lively heart of Blandford Forum, with its mix of restaurants, pubs, independent shops and high street brands – including an M&S food hall and the popular Blandford Forum Indoor Market – a haven for collectibles and bric-a-brac with a charming café. With the river close by, there are plenty of opportunities for a scenic stroll into the glorious Dorset countryside. Try the Stour Valley Way which begins at Blandford Bridge and meanders through the Crown Meadows and Deer Park." Show less
