Discover a home designed without compromise

An inspired new way to retire

Later life doesn’t have to mean sacrificing the things you love. Retiring should be inspiring. So, when you move into one of our purpose-built retirement communities, you don’t have to compromise on your lifestyle, your social life or your independence. Our approach respects your privacy and surrounds you with friendly, likeminded people and we can support your health and well-being today, and into the future.

Designed to help you make the most of every day, our exclusive 1, 2 or 3 bedroom apartments include thoughtful details, helpful technology and handy features that make your home safer, easier to access and exceptionally comfortable.

The communal areas have been created with the same attention to detail, from the table-service restaurant and Homeowners’ lounge, to the hairdressing salon, therapy suite and beautifully landscaped gardens. With a lively social calendar that you can dip into as little or often as you like, the companionship of friendly people and the reassurance of 24/7 support 365 days a year, you’re free to live your way, every day.

Award-winning developments

Our unique vision

Adlington retirement communities don’t just win over Homeowners and their families, they also win the recognition of our industry peers.

Three of our developments have won Gold, Silver and Bronze Awards for the Best Retirement Development in the UK at the WhatHouse? Awards, housebuilding’s most prestigious event.

We want our Homeowners to enjoy every moment of their retirement. We constantly refine, adapt and invest in our buildings and interior design to deliver high quality homes and create welcoming retirement communities.

The judges recognised both our spacious, superbly appointed apartments and our unique approach to independent living, praising the fact that our Homeowners don’t have to compromise on their independence, privacy or social life.

They highlight the importance of having peace of mind when downsizing, commending the optional care* offered and the emergency call system that’s linked to our dedicated 24-hour on-site support team.

We have also won multiple NHBC awards and are members of ARCO, the Association of Retirement Community Operators.

Homes that really feel like home

Our range of spacious 1, 2 or 3 bedroom apartments are designed to offer flexibility to suit everyone. Many of our Homeowners adapt the space to create a cosy study or stylish dining room, to compliment their individual needs and way of life.

We also focus on the little things that make a big difference from how a home feels, such as natural light, a user-friendly layout, a private patio or balcony - to smart, space-saving storage. Next, we added quality fixtures and fittings to guarantee years of hassle-free living – like hardwearing 80% wool carpets that reduce heat loss and add a touch of luxury.

For peace of mind, an audio visual entry security system with viewing monitor, that allows you to see who’s calling, without leaving the comfort of your home.

We also considered the practical needs of our Homeowners, and added special features including wider door frames and long-lever taps for easier use and better access.

Finally, we gave each and every apartment its own front door and letterbox. So, your home feels like your own from the very first day.

What care means to us

Care, consideration and companionship

More and more of our Homeowners are choosing to move to retirement communities whilst they’re fit and healthy, to future-proof their retirement.

We offer a personal approach to ensure that you receive just the right amount of care to maintain your independence, allowing you to enjoy your retirement in full.

Round-the-clock support is available from our dedicated team, 365 days a year. Whatever your needs, the 24-hour on-site team are on hand for your wellbeing and to arrange tailored care* if required – all of which enables you to maintain your quality of life.

It’s completely flexible, so should you find that your requirements change in the future, or need short-term support for post-operative care or after an illness, the discreet care team will be able to accommodate your needs.

Even though many of our Homeowners do not need specialist care, the Adlington team is available to give you and your family comfort that in the event of an unexpected fall, help is immediately to hand.

The sophisticated emergency call system not only covers each private apartment but the entire building and gardens, for added peace of mind.

Family values and 30 years experience

Adlington Retirement Living is part of the Gladman Group, a family business which has been operating for more than 30 years.

Established in 2009, Adlington Retirement Living has a vision ‘to create quality homes for the older generation who want to remain independent’.

Our first development was launched that year in Rhos-on-Sea. We have since gone on to develop numerous high-end, purpose-built retirement communities in the North West, Yorkshire and The Midlands, winning industry awards for our stylish 1, 2 or 3 bedroom apartments, and our fresh perspective on retirement living.

“I had always thought would move home in the future but when came to look at Adlington thought this is the future. The day moved in I sat out on my balcony and thought this is absolute bliss and have never stopped thinking that.”

“It’s lovely here – we settled in straight away. There is lots of help and support from the staff who are very friendly. Our family think it’s been the best move possible. My husband David sometimes thinks he’s still in a hotel on holiday.”
