A modern village, steeped in history

From every angle Cawston House is nothing short of stunning. Huge sash windows punctuating a beautiful cream facade, a grand entrance hall, soaring chimney stacks and a traditional conservatory are just some of the features to recommend the Edwardian mansion.

And that’s just the centrepiece of Lime Tree Village which has so much more besides.

Cawston House is where the village’s country club facilities can be found. These include function rooms, a restaurant, bar, snooker room, library, medical suite and village reception. There are also a number of apartments, many with original features and sweeping views.

The rest of Lime Tree Village has been designed to resemble any other community. There are apartments, bungalows and chalets; streets and cul-de-sacs; a village pond, woodland and leisure areas; there’s even a pretty footpath leading to the nearby shops and services.

With such a natural community setting, it’s hardly surprising that the community bonds at the retirement village are so strong.

The village function rooms have seen numerous celebrations with residents choosing to mark special birthdays, anniversaries or events with their village neighbours. The annual fete draws hundreds of residents, their families and friends from the local area, keen to share the special atmosphere.

There are an ever increasing number of social occasions on the calendar and interest groups to suit all tastes. The photographic club is particularly prolific as are regular summer sporting contests held in the manicured gardens.

Lime Tree Village sits on the edge of Dunchurch not far from Rugby and is well located for major trunk roads, train lines and airports. Easily accessible are some wonderful day trip destinations from stately homes to market towns.

There are plans to develop Lime Tree Village further in the future, adding extra living options and further facilities.
