Retirement Cottages in Diss

Hartismere Mews features an exclusive collection of 15 two bedroom retirement cottages in Diss. These cottages are a great alternative for those looking to downsize and maintain a higher level of independence beyond apartment living.

Our cottages typically attract purchasers that want the benefits of living alongside like minded neighbours, in addition to maintaining a life of independence. You have the option to be part of the main Lodge community if you wish via a small club membership fee which allows you to benefit from the community activities and events, but this is completely optional.

Cottages have the benefit of dedicated parking and a private garden which is great for those with pets, we even provide a small shed in the garden for storage. Cottages are sold freehold and also benefit from a straightforward management arrangement which provides services such as window cleaning, communal garden maintenance and a 24-hour careline support, ideal when thinking about the future. These cottages are part of a wider retirement community featuring a collection of 58 one and two bedroom apartments at Mere Lodge.
