Retire to Yorkshire

Community
Yorkshire is famed for its northern hospitality and our retirement properties leave you right in the heart of bustling local communities where you’ll find it easy to join in with the local events. By day, you can discover the huge number of festivals taking place throughout the year, such as the Ilkley Literature Festival, the Hull International Photography Festival, or the York Early Music Festival. Alternatively, you can visit Yorkshire’s nine race courses, which host some of the most famous racing festivals in the UK.
Meanwhile, for exciting nights out, there's plenty to see around the county. There's opera and ballet at the Grand Theatre in Leeds, or you can catch live music, comedy and family productions at Europe's largest open-air theatre in Scarborough. Recent performers here include Britney Spears and Sir Cliff Richard.

Sights
If there's one thing that there's plenty of in the huge span of Yorkshire, it’s rolling green hills and peaceful meadows. From the North York Moors National Park to the valleys and patchwork fields of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, you could find yourself retiring to one of the most scenic parts of the country.
If you’d rather enjoy the sands, then you'll also find a massive stretch of unspoilt coastline, including 36 miles of Heritage Coast that runs from Saltburn-by-the-Sea down to Scarborough. Plus, there are sandy beaches, rugged cliffs, rocky shores and profound views, including the one from Boulby Cliff in Staithes, which is the highest point on the East Coast of England.

Surrounding Areas
If you’re looking for an active retirement, then our retirement properties in Yorkshire could be the perfect location. With the North York Moors and Bempton Cliffs in the vicinity, you’re never short of places to get out, explore and see the local wildlife.
Yorkshire's also home to over 200 golf courses and tennis clubs, as well as many rural pursuits that you might not find elsewhere. Take a leisurely horse ride through the Yorkshire Dales National Park, or try out some fly fishing and clay pigeon shooting in Coniston near Skipton.
