I Love Living Here
5 / 5 ★
I love living here, I'm on my own. Everyone is friendly and there is lots going on here, it's up to us to join in. We have a bus trip to Mahia next week, and we only pay for our lunch at their local cafe.

Great care from staff
4 / 5 ★
My wife & I moved here, prior to her being admitted to Health Care Bethune. She received great care from all staff. I continue to live independently but with some help. (eds).

Mixed ages of people is good
4 / 5 ★
There is enough for people to do at Beetham and lot of independent people do their own interest out of the village. Its a good mix of 'in the village' and 'out of the village' as you hear people talk of what they do and whats happening in our town. Mixing in mixed ages of people is good.

We have been occupants for 7 years in a very nice stand-alone 3 bedroom villa. Really just a change of address for us. Partake in a little of village life- still very active out in the community.
