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, Specsavers, Greggs and a Card Factory, along with a myriad of other retailers, bars and restaurants. The Three Brooks Inn is a popular social spot for our Homeowners.
Brook Court is situated close to the Parkway train station, along with being on a bus route and within 5 minutes of the M4/M5 intersection linking the South West, Wales, the North and London.

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.

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.
