Testimonials

Very few retirement complexes are as impact-making as The Old Prebendal Court. Its setting, extensive grounds and beautiful gardens radiate peace and quiet. Having lived here for almost nine years I have no regrets. All in all – Retirement with the inevitable ‘downsizing’ is not so daunting when you find the ideal place and The Old Prebendal Court certainly fits that accolade.
