Remodelling of Avonpark Village underway

Work has now started in earnest on the remodelling of the clubhouse at Avonpark Village, near Bath.

The three month programme will see the communal facilities at the retirement village transformed. The entire reception area will be opened up, extra seating areas created and further dining options added with the addition of a new servery. The current library and lounge area will be remodelled, resulting in a larger, more functional area. The conservatory will be redecorated and new furniture added. Administration and staff areas will also be improved.

The work is the next phase of development at Avonpark Village – which was acquired by Retirement Villages last November. Work began almost immediately on redecorating and upgrading finishing and furnishings in the care and residential homes. Work on the communal facilities used by those living independently at the village is now underway.

“This is the next phase in our work to improve Avonpark Village and ensure residents have the very best surroundings,” said Paul Walsh, the Managing Director for the Care and Operations Division of Retirement Villages. “We have put in place temporary facilities for residents and their guests to use during the work which we expect to take until October.”

Avonpark Village in Limpley Stoke, comprises 99 studios, apartments, cottages and houses, a 27 bed residential home, a 15 bed nursing home and a 32 bed dementia unit. The communal facilities include a restaurant, gym and hair salon, library, shop and bar, activities room, village minibus for outings and GP surgery.
