Twyford is a thriving village with excellent amenities including good local shops, Waitrose, several restaurants and pubs and mainline station to Paddington (approximately 30 minutes).There is delightful countryside surrounding the village with several picturesque hamlets yet the large centres of Reading, Maidenhead, Bracknell and Wokingham are easily accessible along with both the M4 & M40.
Built in 1999 exclusively for those aged over 55, Old Silk Mill offers the opportunity to live in a secure development which is in relative close proximity to the shops and facilities of Twyford village. There is a care manager on site Monday to Friday between 9am -2pm and for added peace of mind, the apartments have an emergency pull cord system which connects to a call centre where they will alert the relevant authorities if required.
The setting for Old Silk Mill is superb and the communal lounge has patio doors leading out to gardens which adjoin the river bank. The communal lounge has a library and kitchen where residents can make a tea or coffee to enjoy in the lounge or out on the patio and there are regular coffee mornings for those that wish to be involved. Unlike some other retirement complex’s, there are several entrances to the building so you do not have to gain access via the communal lounge and this gives a greater feeling of privacy as you come and go.
Within the complex there is a laundry room and a guest suite should relatives need to stay overnight, currently charged at £15 a night. Further services include a hairdresser and therapist that visit the complex each week.
