Reviews
Description
Glenburn is located in one of New Lynn’s little nooks. We are conveniently situated near the bus stop and just up the road from the township and train station. The New Lynn town center is growing with lovely restaurants and cafes, plus a cinema.
At Glenburn you will enjoy a warm, spacious and homely apartment with lots of natural light. All apartments contain:
- A well designed, modern kitchen
- An open-plan lounge and dining area
- An en-suite bathroom
- A full white-ware package – washing machine, dryer, fridge/freezer and dishwasher
- A heat pump – to stay warm in winter and cool in summer
The sense of community is strong here as is the feeling of a secure long-term future that comes from having care options next door at Glenburn Rest Home and Hospital.
Our village residents are entitled to seven days free respite care in one of our care homes, for every year you stay in our retirement village, subject to availability. This is especially helpful if you are caring for an unwell partner.
As part of the global Bupa group, we are able to provide superior clinical support, while focusing on helping each of our residents get the most out of each day. Bupa is one of New Zealand’s leading aged care providers.
For further information regarding Glenburn Retirement Village or to view, please phone our Village Manager, Helen Vlasich on (09) 985 9721 or 027 511 2034 after hours.

NOTE: The Retirement Villages Act 2003 (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. Some Retirement Village type facilities are not required to register under The Act so different legal requirements apply. Please make sure you investigate fully.
In some villages there may be some Retirement Village 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.
