Shipston-on-Stour is the most southern town in Warwickshire, approximately 10 miles south of Stratford-upon-Avon and just on the periphery of the north Cotswolds, with the borders of Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire nearby.
There is a vibrant town centre consisting of tea shops, antique shops, art galleries, clock restorers, historical coaching inns, supermarkets and many other attractions. Many of the shops are independent businesses offering unique and specialist services, which means that customers are drawn from a wider geographic area than a town of its size might usually expect.
Shipston is the focal point for the many surrounding villages and rural areas and has a variety of organisations and clubs active within the town.
If you are over 60 years old and wanting to own a retirement property without the burden of maintenance and repairs, Anchor-managed properties may be the answer. Anchor estates are all very different. They range from a small cul–de-sac of six bungalows to a large estate of 86 apartments. Most are set in pleasant landscaped settings.
At each estate there will be an estate manager who can act as the first point of contact for any queries that residents may have and offer help to access any local services.
Our retirement properties have a real community feel where people interact with their neighbours, families and friends, continuing to do all the things they love.
Many of our leasehold housing developments organise a wide range of activities and events tailored to the interests of the people living in them.
