Happy to call Greenwell Gardens home. Staff most helpful.Would recommend to anyone looking for retirement village living.
I live in the Retirement village in a lovely 2 bed duplex. It's a lovely area, so close to main shops and other amenities. The area is flat, so easy for me to walk. You can do as much as you like in the village or just do your own thing. Great we have a mini bus to take us to events and shopping further away. I enjoy our weekly morning teas and monthly lunches. The community hall is great with a good library, games, table tennis, carpet bowls etc. Any maintenance needed is usually seen to promptly. It took a little while to get used to the downsizing, but now realise it was the best move for me. (I was 69 at the time)
There was kind of discrimination in this facility. Very bad experience there.

These guys and the facility rock. My dad was a resident there before he passed away and always spoke highly of the staff.
