Soak up culture as a resident of Douglasdale Retirement Village in Sandton
Sandton is widely known as a cultural mecca and a shoppers' paradise. As a resident of Douglasdale Retirement Village, you'll have easy access to Pieter Tourien Theatre productions at Montecasino - as well as the casino itself and the array of restaurants to be found here. With Sandton City and Nelson Mandela Square just around the corner - as well as the variety of other shopping centres to be found in Sandton - you can shop until you drop. Sandton is also a great retirement venue for foodies, as there's a smorgasbord of restaurants within a short drive of home.
Enjoy the best of both worlds at Featherbrooke Hills Retirement Village in Krugersdorp
With Cradlestone Mall just a kilometre from home and Silverstar Casino just around the corner, residents of Featherbrooke Hills have shopping and indoor entertainment covered. At the same time, being just a ten-minute drive from the Walter Sisulu National Botanical Garden means that the great outdoors is easily accessible. One of the other factors that many Featherbrooke Hills residents love about their home is that small pets are allowed.
An endless list of fun things to do in Centurion
If you're into sport, family-orientated brunch venues, model trains, bird parks or nature reserves, Centurion is an ideal retirement locale. While the sports enthusiasts have SuperSport Park Cricket Stadium right on their doorsteps, those looking for a beautiful family-orientated place to take the kids, Irene Farm will be your destination. Bishop Bird Park is a must for those who enjoy birdwatching - keep your eyes peeled for small mammals like blesbok, mongooses and bushbabies as well.
When it comes to nature reserves, Centurion residents are spoilt for choice! Over and above Bishop Bird Park, you can visit Rietvlei Nature Reserve or Groenkloof Nature Reserve. If you're looking for an idyllic retirement home in Centurion, look no further than Eldoraigne Retirement Estate, which comes with everything a retiree needs, from frail care and medical consultation rooms to shuttle services, a library and much more.
