Why retire to Berkshire?
From regal Windsor Castle to the lively market town of Newbury, there's a rich history to uncover all over the county, and our retirement properties in Berkshire leave you perfectly placed to explore this historic county.
You can learn about the oldest British order of chivalry, the Knights of the Garter, at St George's Chapel, take a tour of the stately rooms and boathouse at the riverside Cliveden estate, or see the world-famous Ascot Racecourse, where over 300,000 people make an annual visit during the Royal Ascot Races. You can also see Roman artefacts and Victorian art at the Reading Museum, or you can see the 17th century royal residence at Frogmore House.

With ornamental gardens, royal parks and cruises down the River Thames, there are plenty of scenic landscapes to admire around the county of Berkshire. If you’re an animal lover, then you can watch owls, flamingos and pheasants at the Beale Wildlife Park, or discover a wide range of butterflies and dragonflies at the Nature Discovery Centre in Thatcham. On the doorstep of our retirement properties in Berkshire, you'll also find lakes, meadows and public bird hides at Dinton Pastures Country Park.
Meanwhile, great views are plentiful at Walbury Hill. This is the highest point in Berkshire and boasts the furthest reaching views in South East England. The gatehouse of Donnington Castle provides similarly stunning views. Protected as a scheduled ancient monument, the now mostly demolished castle was once held by the son of Geoffrey Chaucer before passing into the ownership of the Crown.
