Testimonials
I wish I had moved to Elmwood Village much sooner than I did because the companionship is here when needed. The location is excellent and the village has property to suit everyones budget.

Bessie Salmons,Resident.

To me the security and peace of mind are very comforting , also my husband lives in the hospital so I can spend as much time with him as I want.

The newly refurbished Community Centre is becoming the hub of Elmwood.

Val Payne, Elmwood Resident.


I love the friendliness of the other residents and the care that the management shows to all the residents.

I am very pleased with the community centre I am an active member of the dart club.

Elsie Townsend, resident

The friendly environment is very comforting. I value my own space which I have, but there is always a resident to have a cuppa and a chat to when needed

Elizabeth Head, Elmwood Resident.

NOTE: The Retirement Villages Act 2003 (hereafter referred to as The Act) is designed to provide improved protection for people who buy into a retirement village. If you intend to purchase you must get independent legal advice before signing your occupation right agreement as required under The Act. Further information about Retirement Villages is available in the section 'Frequent Questions'. Some Retirement Villages are not required to register under The Act so different legal requirements apply. Please do your homework.

In some villages there may be some units that have multiple uses e.g. a Serviced Apartment may also be used as a Residential Care Suite. The same unit may therefore show in several places on Eldernet.
