This development is subject to planning. The specification of our retirement apartments does vary to a degree with each apartment in every development, but this will give you an idea of what you'll find within a new two bedroom McCarthy & Stone apartment.

Does it get much better than retiring to the ‘Best Place to Live in the UK'? We don't think so, and this is exactly where this Retirement Living plus development will be located. The village of Hook in Hampshire received this accolade a staggering five years in a row (from 2011 to 2015) in Halifax's Quality of Life Survey. Wellbeing, low crime rates and even good weather, among other factors, all contributed to the award.
The development will have plenty of both one- and two-bedroom apartments, each and every one featuring elegant yet practical design to make your day-to-day life that bit easier. All apartments will offer ample storage, raised ovens and non-slip bathroom flooring. There'll also be an onsite restaurant offering great-value quality meals for the days when you don't feel like cooking. At the development's centre will be a cosy communal lounge for socialising with your fellow homeowners when you feel like it, and there'll also be communal outside space in the form of a beautifully landscaped garden.
All care provisions are completely flexible. The care and support you receive will be tailored to you and you'll only ever pay for the care you need and use. Care will be provided by our trained and dedicated staff and the development will be staffed 24 hours a day. Plus, overseeing the development's running, the Estates Manager will be available during office hours should you need anything. As well as a camera entry system to ensure you feel completely safe and secure, we guarantee accessibility throughout, with lifts to all floors.
The development will benefit from a very convenient location. As well as a supermarket very nearby and a range of local amenities, the village benefits from great transport links. The M3 is easily accessible and, from the local railway station, you can reach many of the surrounding areas, with London Waterloo reachable in less than an hour. The development will also have its own car parking and a scooter room.
Although growing in size, Hook is still classed as a village and has managed to retain its village feel. There are a variety of local activities held in Hook, from Brownies to ballroom dancing, as well as a range of local groups, including the theatre group Hook Players and even the Hook Eagle Morris Men!
Situated in picturesque North Hampshire, Hook is surrounded by quaint villages with pretty village greens, charming farmhouses and cottages and welcoming country pubs. You're really never that far from a decent pint and a beer garden with a view in this quiet corner of Southern England.
In the nearby village of West Green is West Green House. Although the house itself is private, the gardens are open to the public, offering 10 acres of delightful landscaped gardens to enjoy. Created over 20 years by renowned Australian garden designer Marylyn Abbott, the gardens combine classical with modern design, with a lake, water features, a pretty walled garden, a vegetable garden, an enchanting woodland glade and beautiful Victorian greenhouses. Each year, West Green House also hosts the West Green House Season of Music and Opera in July.
And, on the banks of the Basingstoke Canal is Odiham Castle. These 13th century ruins, known locally as King John's Castle, have a fascinating history. Discover its tale from royal residence to hunting lodge to official ruins by 1603.
