Llys Isan - Constructed in mid 2018 by multi-award winning retirement housebuilder McCarthy Stone, Llys Isan is one our most sought-after developments and it is not difficult to understand why. A ‘Retirement Living PLUS’ development designed for independent living for those aged over 70 years, Llys Isan offers the peace-of-mind provided by the day-to-day support of our 24/7 estate management team who oversee the smooth running of the development. Homeowners can also benefit from extensive domestic and care packages being available to suit individual needs and budgets. One hour of domestic assistance per week is already included in the service charge.

The development enjoys fantastic communal facilities including a beautiful lounge for homeowners, bistro with a fantastic, varied and inexpensive menu, laundry room and scooter store. There is also a wellness centre with an on site hairdresser who usually comes weekly, and landscaped gardens. The development also has the popular guest suite widely used by visiting family and friends for which a small charge per night applies.

There are plenty of regular activities to choose from within Llys Isan too, these include; fitness classes, coffee mornings, games and quiz nights to name but a few and, whilst there is something for everyone, there is certainly no obligation to participate and home owners ‘dip in and out’ of activities as they wish.
