MOTCOMBE GRANGE
Motcombe Grange is a luxurious and independent Retirement Development located in the ever popular, picturesque North Dorset village of Motcombe, which is within a stone's throw of the market town of Shaftesbury. Previously a Prep School, the site was redeveloped and transformed in 2003 to provide 30 bespoke apartments.
The facilities within Motcombe Grange are second to none and include a stunning dining room, drawing room, bar, a library and even a hair salon. The dining room, which is open for optional lunches five days a week, offers a varied menu of a high standard. Bridge, Scrabble and film evenings are regular weekly fixtures, mostly organised by the residents, alongside social lunches, bar evenings and more! There is a weekly visiting hairdresser, fortnightly physio exercise sessions, as well as a visiting chiropodist every 6 weeks.
