Testimonials
| "My experience of moving into Thorrington Retirement Village has been very positive. The staff and residents were all very welcoming. I feel part of a vibrant community. Thorrington is in a very picturesque part of Christchurch with great views of the hills. Walks around the river are within easy reach. The grounds here are a picture and our hidden gem is the woodland area at the rear of the property - wonderfully therapeutic for a morning stroll to hear the birdsong or to enjoy sitting under the superb trees with a wine on a warm summer evening. I feel liberated and happy ready to enjoy Archer Thorrington Village life". |

NOTE: The Retirement Villages Act 2003 (The Act) is designed to provide improved protection for people who ‘buy’ into a retirement village. If you intend to ‘purchase’ you must get independent legal advice before signing your occupation right agreement as required under The Act. Some Retirement Village type facilities are not required to register under The Act so different legal requirements apply. Please make sure you investigate fully.
In some villages there may be some Retirement Village units that have multiple uses e.g. a Serviced Apartment may also be used as a Residential Care Suite. The same unit may therefore show in several places on Eldernet.
