Margate Retirement village is situated in the sunny coastal town of Margate, with its stunning beaches and holiday atmosphere, our Margate Retirement Village has become a highly sought-after retirement destination for many South Africans.
The array of housing options available – from apartment living to free-standing homes – provides a convenient secure environment for residents seeking an independent lifestyle.
The frail-care and dementia-care facility onsite ensures that help is nearby should you ever require it.
The Margate Retirement Village consists of 444 cottages and flats, on 28 hectares of land.
It’s close to the trending and bustling holiday town of Margate – offering many holiday festivities – without the chaos of seasonal traffic and crowds. Instead, you can enjoy wide roads, lush trees and open surroundings in this estate, which is home to about 630 residents.
“The Village”, as it’s affectionately known by, was first occupied in 1968 by a few cottage residents and social pensioners.

Ramsgate Retirement Village is a quaint little village just south of Margate and is home to the smallest of our villages, Ramsgate Retirement Village, which is a picturesque village that shares many of the facilities of its neighbour in Margate, just a few kilometres away.
It houses 61 face brick cottages, each with their own private garden. Whilst residents of the Ramsgate Village enjoy a number of high quality on-site amenities, the village’s close proximity to the Margate Village means that residents get to enjoy all the facilities of the Margate Village too. Any sport, medical and cultural activities and services that are not available on-site in the Ramsgate Village are available at the Margate Village and the courtesy bus travels between each village daily.
Built in 1989 by the town board, it was officially acquired by HRV in 1995 and has flourished ever since.
