Danny House Retirement

Danny House Retirement Danny House in one of England's great country houses and a fantastic retirement property. Nestling in an area of outstanding natural beauty

Danny House in one of England's great country houses and prestigious retirement properties. Nestling at the foot of the South Downs within the National Park, this retirement home offers the best of all worlds - gracious retirement accommodation combined with all modern comforts, but without the stress of everyday life, for carefree senior living. This retirement home is within walking distance of Hurstpierpoint (1 mile), which offers a good selection of shopping facilities, and the train station at Hassocks is just 1.5 miles, offering a 10 minute journey to Brighton, or into London in under one hour. There is also a very good care home nearby - St Georges Park, Ditchling. To live in a fully serviced retirement apartment at Danny means being able to forget about the everyday worries of running a house, as this is done for you. The kitchen is in the hands of two well-qualified cooks, and excellent breakfast, lunch and supper are provided every day. Your apartment is regularly cleaned and maintained. In summer, there are large gardens at your disposal. If you are a keen gardener, there is plenty of scope for you to go on exercising your skills, whether in the walled garden or perhaps tending a vegetable plot. If you prefer just to take it easy out of doors, there is plenty of shade. There is also a croquet lawn, grass tennis court, ponds for fishing, farm animals, and table tennis. The retirement estate lies off the road from Hurstpierpoint to Hassocks, and is only eight miles from Brighton. If you have no car, we provide transport to take you shopping once a week, to the nearby medical centres and to cultural events in Brighton.

This is a tradition we look forward to every year: a chance to come together at Christmas, celebrate the season, and enjoy the beautiful surroundings of our Great Hall at its most magical.

A lovely evening, shared by all. ✨🎄

A glimpse back to a truly beautiful concert held in October at Danny House.

Simon Wilson, together with Matthew Connolly, Hilary Andrews, Linsey McKee and Simon Gray, gave an evening of exceptional musicianship — a performance of the very highest standard, in the gorgeous setting of our historic Great Hall.

Danny House hosts world-class concerts every Monday for its residents, as well as occasional performances open to the public — and this was a truly unforgettable, deeply moving experience for everyone in the room.
