AUDLEY ST ELPHIN’S PARK: LUXURY RETIREMENT LIVING

Living well and staying well

Set within 14 acres of landscaped grounds in the beautiful Derbyshire Dales, Audley St Elphin’s Park offers the best of the East Midlands – from the Peak District National Park to some of the UK’s most vibrant cities. Featuring more than 100 cottages and apartments, the village mimics a traditional Derbyshire hamlet. At its heart is the stunning Victorian Gothic St Elphin’s House, within which eight individually designed apartments boast historical charm. Originally a private residence, before becoming an exclusive spa and then a prestigious girls’ school, St Elphin’s House has been restored stone by stone and transformed into a welcoming home once more.

At the centre of the village is the Audley Club where you will find a heated indoor swimming pool, fitness suite with equipment and exercise classes, spa treatment rooms and a hair salon. There is a bar bistro for casual dining and the a la carte restaurant, The Orangery at St Elphin’s Park, offers formal dining and is open to the public to enjoy alongside the Audley owners. At St Elphin’s Park owners can also relax in the library and owners' lounge within the centrepiece building.

Tucked away in peaceful Darley Dale, Derbyshire's county town of Matlock is just five minutes down the road. The famous Bakewell – known for its delicious pudding of the same name – is only 15 minutes in the other direction. Despite being surrounded by scenic countryside, at Audley St Elphin’s Park you’re only a 20-minute drive to Chesterfield, 45 minutes to Derby, or 55 minutes to Nottingham or Sheffield – and all the arts, culture, dining and shopping they have to offer.

At Audley, living well and staying well is our number one priority, which is why when you move to Audley St Elphin’s Park, you automatically become a member of the Audley Club. You will be looked after by our highly trained Audley Club team, who have been chosen for their exceptional personal qualities and provide nothing less than a ‘concierge’ level of service.

A range of activities and fitness classes are also on offer, from Pilates to bridge to sightseeing trips. However, if owners wish to form a new club, learn a new skill or create an event around a shared interest, the team are available to help make this happen.

The future is always brighter when it’s one tailored to you. At Audley you can live the life you love, keep your highly valued independence, and own your own property, because when you’ve worked hard to become the person you are today, Audley believes you shouldn’t have to change your lifestyle when you retire. They look after the maintenance and security of your property and the grounds, leaving you free to spend your time however you wish. Care and support services are also on hand should you ever need it.

Exclusively for over 55 year olds, owning a home at St Elphin’s Park gives you a truly independent lifestyle in a beautiful and secure environment.
