Show more "Hamlet Lodge is a prestigious development of 48 one and two bedroom Retirement apartments for the over 60’s. These retirement properties are ideally located for access to the bustling city centre, which combines High Street stores with a wide range of specialist shops and boutiques. Alongside restaurants and cafes within the pedestrianised centre, two modern shopping centres, The Mall Eastgate and Kings Walk cater for all your shopping needs. Gloucester has been very successful in retaining much of its market town atmosphere with an all your round covered market selling traditional local produce.

To the east of Gloucester, The Cotswolds known for their gentle hillsides and sleepy villages and designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty offer endless walking opportunities, many based in and around the characteristic villages and market towns. The Cotswolds also have some of the finest gardens in Great Britain and a regular calendar of festivals and events to enjoy.

Hamlet Lodge’s manager, is on hand throughout the day to support the residents and keep the development in perfect shape. They assist in arranging many regular events in the Owners Lounge from coffee mornings to games afternoons. For any visiting guests, the furnished twin guest suite is perfect and available for just £15 per night single occupancy and £20 per night double occupancy per night for friends and family. The same excellent value is available for you to use across more than 150 Retirement Lodges throughout the UK." Show less
