We know that location matters, and no more so than in retirement. At Pegasus Homes, we create age-exclusive communities in the most sought-after locations across England, taking advantage of the country’s cities, towns, villages, and coastlines. Our communities prioritise being close to local amenities, good transport links and open green spaces; we know proximity to places you enjoy makes life easier and is as important as the home itself.
Our communities span the length and breadth of England, offering a diverse array of environments to suit every preference. From the heart of major cities like London, Newcastle, and Bristol, to historic strongholds such as Winchester and Bath; from the commuter-friendly leafy towns of Cobham and West Byfleet, to the sunny, sandy shores of Falmouth, we recognise that this phase of life is not about settling or compromising; it's about embracing the freedom to live joyfully in later life.
Embracing the City Life
Retirement should be the time to embrace life's pleasures, and city centres offer the perfect pairing of cultural delights and ease of access. Our communities in London, Bath and Bristol embody the best of city living, close to theatres, restaurants, museums and cinemas, with plenty of transport options to keep you on the go.
Nestled beside Clifton Downs in Bristol, The Vincent is ideally located within easy reach of the bustling city centre. Beyond the community, the beauty of Redland and Clifton awaits you, with lovely tree-lined paths leading to Clifton Village, while the bustling route along Whiteladies Road into the city centre helps to make this a desirable place to call home.
Set on the banks of the River Avon, Pegasus Bath Leat is well-positioned to make the most of the beautiful Roman city of Bath. Being just a short walk from the heart of the city, you can enjoy the peacefulness of a riverside community, with the perks of the city on your doorstep. Bath Leat’s prime location is also within easy reach of the picturesque Royal Victoria Park, a beautiful expanse of green parkland spanning 57 acres, alongside a variety of independent restaurants, bars, cafes, and boutique shops.
We know that the benefits of a city extend far beyond proximity to culture and entertainment. Whether in London or Newcastle; Bristol or Bath, our communities have access to excellent road and rail links, healthcare facilities, and support services to ensure your practical needs are easily met.
Wellness by the Water
We know our residents have their health front of mind, and numerous studies highlight the wellness benefits of living by the coast, from reduced stress levels to improved respiratory health.
Dotted along England’s south coast, from Seaford to Falmouth, at Pegasus Homes we meticulously curate our coastal communities to maximise these natural advantages, while providing all the comforts of modern living.
A Georgian market town located on the Hampshire coast between Southampton and Bournemouth, Lymington is set on the fringe of the New Forest with direct links to the Isle of Wight. Just a short walk from the cobbled streets of the charming town centre, Pegasus’ Lymington Gate provides the perfect setting to make the most of maritime living with family and friends, with an abundance of popular supermarkets such as Waitrose, and M&S Food, independent shops and cafes, alongside a characterful Old Town Quay. Lymington has excellent transport links to nearby Southampton, with regular trains to the heart of London.
The Fitzroy, Falmouth combines a modern reinterpretation of the region's iconic grand hotels with breathtaking seaside views of Cornwall’s shorelines. Immerse yourself in the town's cultural scene with just a 20-minute walk to the bustling Church and Market Streets, filled with charming boutiques and eateries.
