Abbeyfield Nine Oaks, Sheltered Housing in Windermere

Discover a perfect balance of privacy and connection in the heart of the Lake District. Located on the quiet Phoenix Way, Abbeyfield Nine Oaks offers sheltered housing designed for those who want to stay active while leaving the stress of property maintenance behind.

Here, you can enjoy the peace of your own front door with the comfort of a friendly community just a few steps away.

Easy living with peace of mind

Our goal is to make your daily life as hassle-free as possible. Our Senior House Manager and dedicated housekeeping team handle the running of the home, leaving you free to enjoy your time.

• Safety first: feel secure with 24-hour emergency call pendants and a secure door entry system.
• On-site support: our team is available every day until 1:30 pm to offer help and advice.
• Household maintenance: we take care of everything, from window cleaning and gardening to building repairs.
• Great amenities: enjoy the convenience of an on-site laundry, private resident parking, and meal service.

Choice of characterful apartments

We offer two distinct styles of living, both of which are pet friendly. Whether you prefer historic charm or modern accessibility, you’ll find a space that feels like home.

• Nine Oaks House: our original building is full of period features. It offers eight unique apartments converted from grand, historic rooms, all accessible by lift.
• Thornton House: this purpose-built wing is designed for modern ease. These one-bedroom apartments feature wide corridors and full wheelchair access throughout.

Each apartment is a private, self-contained home with an ensuite bathroom. We encourage you to bring your own furniture and keepsakes to make the space truly yours.

A welcoming community

The "Abbeyfield Way" is all about enjoying later life together. While your apartment is your private retreat, our shared spaces are always full of life:

• Social spaces: meet neighbours for coffee in the lounge, join a resident-led club, or enjoy a movie night.
• Beautiful gardens: spend time in our landscaped grounds, potter in the greenhouse, or help out in the vegetable patches.
• Room for guests: when family come to visit, our on-site Guest Suite provides a comfortable place for them to stay overnight.

The best of Windermere

We are perfectly placed for village life. A short, easy walk takes you into the centre of Windermere, where you’ll find independent shops, the local GP surgery, and the famous Booths supermarket. Excellent bus and rail links nearby make exploring the wider Lake District easy.

Continuing a proud tradition

Nine Oaks has recently joined Abbeyfield Living Society from the Nine Oaks Housing Trust, and we are committed to preserving the local heritage and community spirit established by the Trust with our national expertise and professional support.
