There are lots of benefits to living in a Retirement Village. You can retain your independence whilst having access to additional support if and when you need it. You can look forward to being welcomed into a like-minded community, where loneliness and isolation are a thing of the past and you can join in as much or as little as you wish.
Life at Auchlochan, before Covid 19 precautions were introduced, was always incredibly active and sociable. Whilst we have all had to adjust to the new times, our sense of community and support has been increased through this pandemic situation.
Our Wellbeing team have a 24 hour a day, 7 day a week presence at the village. This service provides a first point of contact should you have any concerns about your wellbeing. The team also organise clubs, groups and events, which will continue in a Covid –cautious version throughout this pandemic.
Living a later life well
When the current restrictions are lifted, our hair salon, treatment rooms and village bistro will provide a fabulous on-site service. The bistro is normally open 7 days week and the monthly theme evenings are very popular and great fun for all. The apartment communal spaces are hubs of social gatherings and our main event space ‘The Douglas Suite’ hosts concerts, events and church services.
Staying active
At Auchlochan we work tirelessly to keep the 50 acre grounds in tip top condition throughout the year. Being connected to the great outdoors is easy when it is on your doorstep.
The grounds include our historic walled garden, where the gardening club meet and contribute to the planning, planting and growth of their surroundings. Recently we have set up 2 beehives next to the garden, which is another great pastime to enjoy in your spare time.
The putting green and croquet lawns offer seasonal gentle exercise. For anyone wanting to participate in the long game there is an 18-hole golf course right next door where new members are always welcome on the course or in the club house.
Meet new neighbours, make new memories and feel quickly at home in your new surroundings.
