OWNERS INSIGHT

"Whitley Court offers more than just a home, it offers a lifestyle. There is a wonderful, social environment should residents wish to be a part of, but equally the quiet retreat of the property or peaceful areas to sit and relax both inside or out in the garden. The feeling of comfort and security is an important feature, knowing there was someone on hand 24hrs a day in case of an emergency and the option to have additional care if required."
