Show more "Honeybourne Gate offers 55 luxury retirement apartments in the only Cheltenham retirement scheme recognised in the 2019 EAC awards. Fantastic communal spaces and flexible services that adapt to your needs - everything you need for a secure and enjoyable retirement.

Whether you just want to downsize, or you are looking for security, peace of mind or you already need some additional help around the home - Honeybourne Gate is the answer. Independence, luxury apartments, great facilities - a restaurant, gym, swimming pool and cinema room - and 24/7 staffing to cater for all your needs.

Honeybourne Gate follows a model of services usually called ‘Extra Care’. Most older people want to retain their independence for as long as possible and that is what Extra Care delivers. The vast majority of people who make the decision to move into an Extra Care property will never need to go into a care home.
