Facilities & Activities

Our well-appointed Community Centre is the hub of village life with a comprehensive calendar of events and activities to participate in throughout the year.  The Centre includes a billiard room, a well-stocked library, a hairdressing salon, and a surgery room for our regular visiting doctor and podiatrist.

Walridge Country Estate outdoor areas and gardens include a large patio attached to the Community Centre with seating and barbecue facilities.  A gazebo, suitable for smaller gatherings, is situated in our orchard, which also offers our residents fresh seasonal fruit.

The village shed provides opportunities for those who are creative to make any manner of things, as well as repairing well-loved furniture pieces, and our monthly newsletter keeps everyone informed of what is happening around the village.

The Walridge bus provides an opportunity for those who may not otherwise be able to get to the local shops and is also used for social outings for residents.

Walridge Country Estate is a pet-friendly village. 

Walridge provides dedicated parking bays to accommodate large vehicles such as caravans, camper vans, boats and trailers.
