Our carefully designed site at Rothbury House will enable you to retain your independence while living among like-minded people who share an RAF connection.
Set among rolling green hills, the house is a stone’s throw away from local amenities, allowing you to walk through the beautiful village of Rothbury to shops, cafes, and community services.
We have a variety of purpose-built suites available, each designed to give you the privacy you need to live an independent life whilst benefitting from being a member of our tight-knit community.
