"Beautifully kept with lots of facilities that were immaculate and well kept. Beautifully kept grounds. Activities look interesting, well managed and enjoyable.
Residents appeared very happy and contented." - Google Review, December 2025 "Eight years ago, we purchased a Independent Living Apartment at Richmond Village, Aston on Trent.
We have now reached the stage where a little more help is required and are moving to an Assisted Living Apartment.
The whole process of selling and purchasing a new apartment went very easily thanks to the Richmond Advisers, Jack Bates and Deborah Unwin.
Their friendly and helpful attitude, coupled with a very good knowledge of the property market took a lot of stress out of what can be a difficult time.
Jack acted in a wholly professional manner throughout the process." - Google Review, April 2025 "Fabulous place! We love coming every week. Great staff and just an amazing environment!
