Details about meals
Breakfast and supper are generally served in residents rooms. All other meals can be served in rooms or in the dining room. The main meal of the day is prepared fresh on site by our dedicated chefs. There are three main course choices, including a vegetarian option. Specific food preferences and cultural or dietary needs can be catered for. All our meals are cooked at the village giving our food a lovely home made touch. Residents can help themselves to tea, coffee and fruit at all times.
Special features
At Ryman, we deliver the highest standard of care with the help of our own custom-made care app, myRyman Care
The app enables nurses and carers to securely record daily care tasks at the bedside, access and update clinical data efficiently, and to spend more time with residents. Our most experienced clinical team members describe myRyman Care as 'magic'.
We've also created our own award-winning model of dementia care, myRyman Life. Through this model, we aim to challenge perspectives on dementia by creating inclusive communities where residents can thrive.
The focus is on experience-based care rather than processes, enabling residents to live in the moment, and to feel kindness, love, and security. Residents are supported to continue doing the things that bring them joy and a sense of fulfilment.
Interests & activities
Our free activities programme, Ryman Engage, is about embracing opportunities and activities that are thoughtfully planned, and age and ability appropriate. Performers and guest speakers are regularly invited to the village to entertain our residents, and relatives often come along to join in the fun.
Some activities include a music programme aimed at stimulating memories and reminiscence, and puzzles and quizzes to encourage mental stimulation.
The key is to provide something for everyone. From arts and crafts, to movies, to outings in the village van, there are many options designed to spark your interest, including Happy Hour, which is a firm favourite with residents.
We also have the Ryman Triple A (Ageless, Active, and Aware) exercise programme which encourages our residents to keep moving. Many of our care residents tell us they've become more active since moving into the village.

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.
