Retirement Cottages in Diss
Hartismere Mews features an exclusive collection of 15 two bedroom retirement cottages in Diss. These cottages are a great alternative for those looking to downsize and maintain a higher level of independence beyond apartment living.
Our cottages typically attract purchasers that want the benefits of living alongside like minded neighbours, in addition to maintaining a life of independence. You have the option to be part of the main Lodge community if you wish via a small club membership fee which allows you to benefit from the community activities and events, but this is completely optional.
Cottages have the benefit of dedicated parking and a private garden which is great for those with pets, we even provide a small shed in the garden for storage. Cottages are sold freehold and also benefit from a straightforward management arrangement which provides services such as window cleaning, communal garden maintenance and a 24-hour careline support, ideal when thinking about the future. These cottages are part of a wider retirement community featuring a collection of 58 one and two bedroom apartments at Mere Lodge.
Nestled in the picturesque South Norfolk countryside, Diss is a thriving market town known for its rich heritage, lively atmosphere and excellent amenities. Despite its quaint size, Diss is home to a variety of high street retailers, independent boutiques, and a wide selection of restaurants perfect for dining out with family and friends. Diss is also well-connected, with Norwich just 20 minutes away by train and London reachable in just 90 minutes. The coast is within easy reach for a seaside day out.
Our developments have been carefully designed to make life easier, leaving you free to enjoy your retirement.
Every cottage boasts a specious living room and double glazed windows throughout. The kitchens are finished with colour-coordinated worktops and units and include an integrated fridge freezer, electric waist height oven and ceramic hob.
Cottages come with a 3 year Churchill extended Customer care warranty plus a 10 year home-build warranty for peace of mind. In addition to the many benefits a cottage will bring, you will be moving into a well-insulated home with energy efficient appliances, fixtures and fittings, which helps to keep energy bills low.

“Living in a Churchill Apartment is absolutely marvellous. The whole building is so nice and warm all the time that we’ve hardly had to use the heating inside our apartment. When we do turn it up a notch or two it’s nice to know we don’t have to worry about the cost or the environmental impact, as it’s all so energy efficient and covered within our annual service charge.”

Attractive market town
Nestled in South Norfolk, Diss is a traditional market town and the gateway to the stunning Waveney Valley which stretches eastwards from the town. With a rich heritage and culture, it’s no wonder Diss is a sought-after place to live.
- Whilst the town is quite small, it’s vibrant and bustling with a number of high street retailers and independent boutiques. You’ll also find an array of cuisines to choose from, perfect for a dinner date with family and friends.
- Diss is famous for its Mere, a deep natural inland lake that’s set within plush parkland where you can picnic or simply stroll along admiring the many birds that frequent this area.
- Being a traditional market town, a weekly market takes place every Friday, whilst the Diss Farmer’s Market comes to town on the second Saturday of each month.
- Bressingham Steam and Gardens is a steam museum and offers beautiful gardens, situated just west of Diss. The unique gardens are truly tranquil and provide the perfect location for a relaxing afternoon. Or why not take a trip on one of the four railways, or ride on the steam Gallopers!
- Diss is a fantastic location and is extremely well connected! You can get to Norwich by train in just 20 minutes, or if you fancy a day out, you can be in London within 90 minutes. The coast is only an hour away too, if you decide you’d like to spend the day at the beach.
