A 16th Century Grade 1 listed manor house forms the beating heart of Grove Place – a stunning building that is home to many of the exceptional communal facilities. Grove Place is dedicated to putting the comfort of the residents first by providing a wealth of five-star amenities to ensure their retirement years are lived to the full and run as smoothly as possible. Residents can stay in shape in the fully equipped gym and by working out with a personal trainer. Grove Place also boasts a chef-led restaurant, indoor pool, billiards room, relaxing lounge, beauty treatment room, hair salon and spa. Residents have full use of their own professional concierge and access to 24-hour emergency support and care. For those who feel like being a little more active, they can head to the croquet lawn or even the recently completed nine-hole putting green. The added luxury of ready access to room service and a housekeeping service is welcomed by many residents and guests are invited to use as many of the amenities as they choose. These on-site amenities are not something many people usually have on their doorstep but are enjoyed to the full by many residents at Grove Place, so even if many retirees are downsizing their homes, they are certainly not downsizing their lifestyles. Philip Gaussen is one such resident who embraces the plethora of top-class amenities and visits the gym regularly. He adds, “We have an external trainer who comes to Grove Place who has even worked out a programme for me to work on independently. Friends have commented that I’m looking ten years younger already!” Another benefit afforded to residents in the Grove Place community is easier access to well-tended outdoor space. Grove place boasts 27-acres of beautiful grounds in the rolling Hampshire countryside where many residents enjoy walking their dogs and taking in the kitchen gardens, orchards and woodland paths.
