Living in Ossett

Ossett is a quiet market town in West Yorkshire. Ideally located halfway between Dewsbury and Wakefield, it provides plenty for residents to see and explore. 

Our development of retirement properties in Ossett is only a couple of minutes from the town's centre, where you'll find a range of shops, boutiques and restaurants that are the perfect place to spend an afternoon. Elsewhere in the town centre, you'll find a range of banks, a couple of supermarkets, a pharmacy and a medical practice. If you fancy a tipple, then Ossett is also home to two breweries. 

On top of all this, every Tuesday and Friday you'll have the chance to wander down to the ever-popular outdoor market in the pedestrian precinct or visit the craft market in Ossett Town Hall. You'll have everything you need right on your doorstep.

If you're looking to stay fit and active in your retirement, then you'll find four golf courses within three miles of the development, including the municipal City of Wakefield Golf Club. There's also Pugneys Watersports Centre and Country Park and the River Calder, which are perfect places for a stroll and a picnic. 

In addition, a bus stop outside the development provides access to Leeds, Batley and Dewsbury, but for travel further afield, the M1 is only a 5-minute drive away. This connects you to Leeds, London and everywhere in between, making it easy for family and friends to visit.
