A WALK THROUGH ST DAVID’S CLOSE

LIFE AT ST DAVID’S CLOSE

Tranquil and easy

“We just loved it right from the beginning, my husband loved it. Because this place is small, you don’t feel like you’re in a retirement village and I don’t even have to change a lightbulb, all maintenance is done promptly. In springtime, it’s absolutely tranquil and beautiful.”
 – 14 year resident

Kind and worry-free

“I’ve made friends here, it’s very neighbourly. I love its size, it’s small, you can actually get to know everyone and choose to participate in group things or not. I love the design of the little town houses, the gardens and the staff, it’s a nice place to be. I don’t have to worry about maintenance, it’s all taken care of for me.”
 – 5 year resident

Great atmosphere

“There was an ‘open for inspection’ sign, so we came and looked and my wife said ‘I could live here’, so we said ‘we’ll take it’ and it was as simple as that. It’s a nice size community and I like the atmosphere here in the village, I like the facilities, its location, there’s a lot going for it and friends of mine who have come have thought ‘what a great place’.”
 – 14 year resident
