Service Information

Facility information supplied by provider.

This business is part of Ryman Healthcare Ltd.

Located close to Northwood Supa Centa, Richard Hadlee Village is set in beautifully landscaped gardens with nature reserves nearby. Enjoy a lifestyle where you can take off on holiday knowing your home is safe and secure with lawns mowed, windows washed and mail collected while you’re away. Soak up the peace and quiet in your own sanctuary, or make the most of the village amenities like catching a movie with friends or playing with the grandkids in the pool.

Our residents live in spaces created to inspire, indulge and entertain. Apartments and townhouses are designed with easy living in mind, while assisted living in a serviced apartment offers the benefits of independent living with added support to make life easier, including housekeeping and delicious chef-prepared meals.

When you feel like being social, it’s easy to grab a coffee in the village café or catch up with friends at our weekly Happy Hour.

Enhance your wellbeing with our ACC-accredited Triple A fitness programme, gym, and a social calendar of activities, events, and trips to choose from. Some residents like to organise their own hobby groups when they meet people within the village who share their interests.

Connection is woven into the fabric of our communities, and social networks grow as residents form friendships with like-minded people. Our team see our residents as family and are always keen for a story and a laugh. You’ll find your people in a Ryman village.

Along with independent and assisted living, Richard Hadlee Village offers a range of care options to support you. These include rest home, hospital, dementia and respite care. In some circumstances you can also choose to receive rest home care in your own serviced apartment.

Trust is built over time, and Ryman has been recognised in the Trusted Brands Awards for 13 years in a row. We've won an incredible 11 times and been highly commended twice. Our residents and their families know they can rely on Ryman, year after year. This recognition is complemented by our Canstar Blue award for Most Satisfied Customers, highlighting the exceptional lifestyle and amenities our villages offer.

It's what sets us apart, and we invite you to visit to experience it for yourself. Better still, talk to our residents and their families - they're the experts!

Every one is very friendly. As the numbers grow it is difficult to get into the activities. Hopefully this will improve when the new centre is complete.

Staff Are Very Dedicated
4 / 5 ★
A brand new village, currently under construction. Village staff are very dedicated and caring. Middle and upper level management appear to be bogged down by bureaucracy causing indecisive and delayed decision making.
