Adlington Retirement Living has released photographs of the luxurious coffee lounge, homeowners’ lounge, restaurant and show apartments at its new retirement community in Newcastle-under-Lyme.

Brookfields House, on Clayton Road, is the 19th community to be designed, built and operated by Adlington Retirement Living which was crowned Seniors Housing Developer of the Year in 2022.

Alexandra Johnson, Sales and Marketing Director for Adlington Retirement Living, said: “Our retirement communities are designed to empower the older generation to live a long, happy and healthy life in a safe and secure environment with activities, communal facilities and beautiful private gardens.

“Although we have an excellent reputation for the quality of our facilities, they’re about much more than the bricks and mortar of our apartments. We know that the most important things that make our homeowners really feel at home are having a good circle of friends, connections with like-minded neighbours and a sense of belonging. We create a community within a community.”

Cath, a homeowner at another Adlington Retirement Living community said: “One of the biggest benefits since moving here is not being isolated and having the support of the staff and the friendships. That’s a big part of living here. You can choose to be on your own if you want to but if not, you can go and find somebody and have a coffee with them and a chat.

“Undoubtedly this has been the best move for me because it’s just such a lovely place. The staff are lovely, all of them. And the other homeowners are too. My friends who come to say think it’s a lovely place to be, and in fact one of my very good friends from school days has put a deposit down on an apartment here. I’ve got no regrets whatsoever. I’m happy here.”

Brookfields House, offers 75 stylish one, two and three-bedroom apartments for the over 55’s, in a safe and secure environment, with the benefit of patios or walk-out balconies to all apartments.

Alexandra Johnson said: “We’re delighted with the interior design at Brookfields House. Each of our retirement communities has a unique interior design scheme to ensure individuality and a fresh look for each launch. The coffee lounge and homeowners’ lounge look fantastic and we’re looking forward to welcoming our first homeowners to move in from September. In the meantime, the marketing suite is now open six days a week and we’re inviting anybody considering moving to one of our luxury retirement apartments to book a tour.”

Homeowners will have the best of both worlds. In addition to the privacy of their own peaceful and spacious apartment, they will also be able to enjoy the communal facilities as an extension of their home.

In addition to a coffee lounge, restaurant and homeowners’ lounge, the communal facilities also include a hair salon, therapy suite and activities studio, as well as a guest suite with en-suite bathroom for visiting friends and family who wish to stay overnight.

All apartments include quality, fully fitted kitchens with integrated appliances. Many feature en-suite shower rooms as well as separate bathrooms, and most have walk-out balconies or a private patio area overlooking the landscaped gardens. The gardens themselves are beautifully manicured and maintained, offering plenty of opportunities to relax in peaceful surroundings, with seating areas, thoughtful pathways and a summer house to enjoy.

The 24-hour on-site support team will provide homeowners with added peace of mind and, if needed, optional personal care packages can be tailored to individual needs. In addition to this, there will be a sophisticated emergency call system and a security video entry system to manage access.

Pat and Michael, homeowners at another Adlington Retirement Living community said: “The standard of everything here is superb. It’s absolutely top class and I couldn’t wish for anything more. It’s just what we wanted. The staff are so caring. I can’t speak too highly of them. Our neighbours are all lovely too. I can’t believe how lucky we are.”

Their daughter added: “It’s like being on a cruise ship. There’s a real sense of community and Mum and Dad have made so many friends already. It’s just given them a whole new lease of life. It’s blown away my misconceptions of retirement living for sure.”

Adlington Retirement Living’s retirement community in Heaton Mersey, Stockport, won Seniors Housing Scheme of the Year at the HealthInvestor Seniors Housing Awards 2022 and four of its communities have won Gold, Silver and Bronze Awards in recent years for the Best Retirement Development at the WhatHouse? Awards, the UK housebuilding’s most prestigious event.
