MP Pays A Visit To Hexham Retirement Development

Hexham MP, Guy Opperman, recently paid a visit to homeowners at Hewson Court from WhatHouse? Award-winning developer McCarthy Stone to hear how they are making the most of their retirement.

Mr Opperman met with the McCarthy Stone team for a tour of the retirement development which offers a collection of 43 privately-owned apartments exclusively designed for the over-60s.

The MP also joined homeowners and staff for a friendly chat over some festive fizz and mince pies, taking time to answer questions and discuss local issues, while understanding more about the lifestyle on offer at Hewson Court.

Guy Opperman comments: “I was delighted to have the opportunity to meet homeowners at Hewson Court and understand how the development is supporting local retirees in Hexham. The development provides an excellent option for those looking to downsize while maintaining their independence - and it’s clear staff work incredibly hard to make it a safe and welcoming place to live.”

Louise Flynn, divisional marketing manager for McCarthy Stone, comments: “We were thrilled to welcome Mr Opperman to Hewson Court and be able to give him the opportunity to speak to our homeowners. We are committed to delivering an exceptional lifestyle that offers all the home comforts for a relaxing, independent retirement, along with a choice of social and leisure activities right on the doorstep. Hewson Court has fast become a flourishing community of retirees looking to live their retirement to the full, and it was great that Mr Opperman was able to experience this first-hand. The visit was beneficial to not only the homeowners, but for Mr Opperman too, as we were all able to sit down and chat about life in Hexham.”

The over-60s are well catered for at Hewson Court, with stylish, bright and cosy homes paired with enviable shared facilities. These include a stylish communal lounge opening onto well-maintained, landscaped gardens.
