Very Well Run Village
5 / 5 ★
Very well run village, everyone seems very happy living here. My wife and I settled in very quickly. We think it was a sound decision to move into this retirement village. Lovely atmosphere and great location.

Excellent experience at Waterford
5 / 5 ★
My wife and I are very pleased we chose Waterford as our retirement home and love the life style and friendly atmosphere here. All the staff including management are great. The cafe and food is excellent and well above our expectations. Maintenance is first class. The gardens are beautifully kept. I have not met a resident who is not happy to be here. I recommend to all my friends.
