Brook Court - Constructed in 2012 by renowned retirement home specialists McCarthy Stone, Brook Court is a popular development of private apartments in a prime location just a five minutes or so level walk from the extensive amenities of the Willow Brook Centre including a Tesco Extra store along with a myriad of other retailers, bars and restaurants. The Three Brooks Inn is a popular social spot for our Home Owners.
Brook Court is a 'Retirement Living' development providing a lifestyle living opportunity for the over 60's and designed specifically for independent living with the peace-of-mind provided by the support of our excellent House Manager. Additionally, all apartments are equipped with a 24-hour emergency call facility and sophisticated intercom system providing both a visual and verbal link to the main development entrance.
The development enjoys excellent communal facilities including a home owners lounge, laundry, scooter store and attractive landscaped gardens arranged in a courtyard fashion in the centre of the development. There is also the excellent guest suite widely used by visiting family and friends for which a small charge of £25 per night applies.
It's so easy to make new friends and to lead a busy and fulfilled life at Brook Court; there are always plenty of regular activities to choose from including; coffee mornings, games and quiz nights, pub lunches, themed events and occasional organised trips. Whilst there is something for everyone there is certainly no obligation to participate and home owners can 'dip in and out' of activities as they wish.
