Homes for Independent Living

Retiring doesn’t have to mean downsizing. We have spacious three and four-bedroom houses for sale with plenty of room for visitors and hobbies. If you are looking for something a little smaller, however, you might prefer one of our two-bedroom cottages or an apartment.

Whichever type of property you choose, you’ll be buying a home that’s well designed, well built and impeccably maintained, a comfortable, stylish place where you can start a whole new chapter.

What Does It Mean to be a Mutually Owned Village?

Long term security of village ownership and stability
No profits being taken out by an external owner
Residents have a direct say in key decisions

“It is a very beautiful and peaceful place to live, and people are very friendly so it is somewhere to gain companionship, particularly if you have lost a partner” - Dr Lamorna Spry, family member of former resident
"We liked that the village had houses, rather than apartments. It was a real village situation, rather than a purpose-built retirement unit.” - Mrs Vilma Wells, resident
“We love the friendly, caring staff, the high standard of décor and landscaping, and the friendly residents.” - A resident
“We love the staff and their availability at all times. The surroundings are glorious. It’s marvellous that you can look after your own patch of garden if you are fit enough, but can have help if not.” - A resident
“The attentiveness and goodwill of management and staff are of a very high standard” - Prof Keith Davies, resident
“For us, the special attraction of Woodchester Valley Village was that it is the first village community to be planned and designed comprehensively to support a life of independent retirement.” - Liz Davies, resident
“We appreciate the easy access to Nailsworth for shopping and enjoy the company of our friendly neighbours.” - Mr David Vickers, resident
“The onsite restaurant is imperative to ensure I get a balanced meal every day. I like being able to get help easily when I need it.” - Mrs Jay Macpherson-Green, resident
The social club provides on-site entertainment, and the minibus offers outdoor trips and shopping. There are staff on hand 24/7 if needed. All in all, it’s a very nice place to live. - Sheelaigh Cole
I have my own independence and my own patio garden, but help is on hand if needed in an emergency. - A resident
My cat and I moved to the village in 2016. There are lovely people here and very friendly dogs and cats. We love it! - A resident
The village is a great environment for mum to live, the team are always extremely helpful and caring, the accommodation is first class and the food is excellent. Mum really enjoys being here and has made many friends. - Andrea and Kevin Carpenter, family of resident Doreen Haywood
Fun entertainments are arranged in the large Octagon lounge and the residents are very friendly. - Irene Caton, resident
There is comfortable transport to nearby shops in Nailsworth and Stroud, and lots of outings for leisure and cultural pursuits. - Irene Caton, resident
It’s a very beautiful and peaceful place; I’m so glad I came to live here! - Eva Paige, resident
I welcome the security and the independence as well as the social life and the kind and very helpful staff. I feel it a privilege to live in such a beautiful part of the country. - Bobbie Wootton, resident
I have lived in the village for six years now and have been so very happy. The staff here are so helpful. - Cheri Burford, resident
The village is tucked away in a beautiful, wooded valley and we are surrounded by wildlife which entertains us. It’s wonderful to lie in bed at night and listen to the deer barking and owls hooting. - Cheri Burford, resident
I thought my social life had ended when I left Bournemouth where I had lived for thirty years, but I was wrong. My only regret is that I did not move here earlier! - Cheri Burford, resident
It’s a perfect place to live, such a pretty village; the staff are lovely, and nothing is too much trouble. The residents are friendly and supportive too. All in all, it is like living in a warm hug! - Audrey Studer, resident
I have lived in Woodchester Valley Village for 4 years and really appreciate the beautiful surroundings. We have a team of gardeners who keep our large communal spaces looking good in all seasons, there are plenty of benches to sit on and chat with my neighbours, plus l have my own small area of garden and a large sunny patio. - MJG, resident
Our Luncheon Club is a great opportunity to enjoy good food in friendly company. - MJG, resident
One of the main reasons I like living in the village is the availability of many circular walks on the doorstep, to the National Trust owned Woodchester Park and visit the renowned Woodchester Mansion, or through the Woodchester Vineyard, with views across the top of the Stroud Valleys, or up to towards Selsley Common with views over the Severn Vale. It’s marvellous! - Howard Gawler, resident
