Wainwright Court

Wainwright Court is a purpose-built assisted living development by McCarthy & Stone, designed specifically to make day-to-day living easier and more enjoyable. The development comprises 68 thoughtfully designed one- and two-bedroom retirement apartments, each created with comfort, safety, and practicality in mind.

Alongside the privacy of your own apartment, homeowners can enjoy a vibrant and welcoming social environment. The homeowners’ lounge provides a relaxed space to meet friends, pop in for a chat, or take part in the wide range of activities organised by fellow homeowners and the Estate Management team. The lounge is also ideal for entertaining, with a function room available to book for family gatherings, celebrations, or special occasions.

A real highlight of Wainwright Court is the on-site table-service restaurant, open daily and serving freshly prepared, nutritious lunches at very reasonable prices. Homeowners are welcome to invite friends and family to join them, and special dietary requirements can be catered for.

Additional features include beautifully maintained landscaped gardens and a guest suite for visiting friends or relatives (available at an additional charge). For complete peace of mind, there is an on-site Estate Manager and a 24-hour emergency call system, with call points in all rooms and a personal pendant alarm.
