The Monthly Charge Explained

One simple, all-inclusive monthly charge

You may be surprised how well our all-inclusive 'rental charge' is comparable to your current outgoings when taking into account the cost of utility bills, property and garden maintenance, meals, transportation, general repairs. There are no worries about excessive heating and electricity bills or costly home maintenance, these are all included.

When you move into The Hawthorns there are no associated charges as with a property purchase. This means that your capital is not tied up. Your apartment is rented on a monthly lease, with everything listed below included in this one charge. And should you ever wish to move out, you just give us 30 days notice - simple, low risk, and hassle free.

Our Monthly charge includes the following services:

  • * Three healthy, freshly prepared meals cooked by the facility chef and his team and served in the dining room
  • All utilities bills and buildings insurance
  • All maintenance costs
  • Manager and Co-Manager Team living on site
  • Weekly housekeeping including cleaning and linen service
  • Scheduled activity programme including days out and activities and classes in the facility
  • Scheduled free transport with our courtesy bus
  • Security alarm systems in every apartment
  • Satellite or cable television

ADDITIONAL COSTS:

  • Contents insurance for your personal effects
  • Personal telephone calls and broadband

*At The Gardens in Eastbourne, the new Hamlet of fully services retirement bungalows and maisonettes, the all-inclusive rental does not include meals but residents can opt into having meals at The Hawthorns for a nominal charge.

Rental Agreement

The licence agreement requires residents to give only 30 days notice, should they decide to move.  Residents make The Hawthorns and The Gardens their permanent home but are not tied into costly agreements or long notice periods.  The all-inclusive rental payment is based on the size of the apartment.
