Find Peace of Mind

Find your happy place

Those that know

The only way to truly find out how special our developments are, is to speak to a homeowner yourself.

Moving to a new property brings with it many different emotions, you may be feeling excited or even a little anxious about joining a retirement community. Rest assured all our homeowners have once been where you are today. They’ve downsized, relocated and wondered whether their retirement living would be what they hoped for. They are therefore our best advocates and the very best people to help answer any questions you may have about life at McCarthy Stone.

Our Community Ambassadors are available for you to call or meet up with prior to moving to a development. Whether you’re at the early stages of planning or close to making a purchase, it will give you the opportunity to freely ask any questions you may have to a McCarthy Stone homeowner.

Call our team who will put you in touch with one of our homeowners today.

A PIPER. SOME REELS, AND A CEILIDH

A McCarthy Stone community is made of more than brick and mortar. They’re made of wonderful acts of kindness. And this one came wearing a kilt. The tartan ensemble in question belonged to a highland piper. Hired to make sure that Pat and husband John felt special on their wedding anniversary during lockdown. A great day that, luckily for the bagpiper, wasn’t too cold and windy.

YOU CAN’T BEAT A BIT OF BALCONY BANTER.

They’re made of lively lock-ins during lockdown. Enjoyed by John and his friends and neighbours, who coined the phrase ‘brilliant balcony banter’ to describe the safe distance tipples and laughter they shared to keep spirits up. Determined as they were to not let a pandemic get in the way of their fun.

GARDENS BURSTING WITH COLOUR AND LAUGHTER

They’re made of gardens filled with fragrant blossom, and raucous peels of laughter. From homeowners like Maggie, whose infectious chuckling can often be heard on video calls, making the most of the wi-fi coverage as she enjoys a lively al fresco natter.

BINGO! HACKING THE CCTV WAS EASY

They’re made of fun and resourceful people. Like at Isabella House, where a genius plan was hatched to play bingo during lockdown by hacking the door-camera system. So they could all enjoy bingo together, from the safety of their own ‘house!’

Pauline Fall, McCarthy Stone Homeowner

“The Estates Manager, Rugile has been fantastic in helping me settle in. I have loved my first few months as an owner of a beautiful apartment. I feel safe and secure and know that I have the help and support of the fantastic staff whenever I need it. More than anything I value the independence I have to enjoy my retirement surrounded by my family and newfound friends.”

Charles Ashworth, McCarthy Stone Homeowner

“I wanted to move into a place where I would be part of a community, feel safe and have stacks of facilities on my doorstep. Poppy Court ticked all the boxes for me, and I haven’t looked back, it really is living made easy.”

Carolyn Richardson, McCarthy Stone Homeowner

“It also means you get to move into a ready-made community which has been great for mum as she’s been able to make friends really quickly and blend into life at the development. The social scene is fantastic – she’s almost never at a loose end and everyone rallies round and supports each other which is just so wonderful to see.”
