Meet The Team

Ian Turnbull

General Manager

I am originally from a hospitality background, having been in hotel management for over 30 years in various hotels throughout the UK, with over 10 years spent as Managing Director of one of the leading and well-established hotels in Eastbourne before joining The Hawthorns.

I joined The Hawthorns Eastbourne originally in 2016 when Avery was looking for a seasoned Hotel Manager to enhance the experience of living in an independent retirement living community.

I enjoy working with a great team of people who strive to make retirement living the best we can for the people who live with us
