The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel 2 inspires pensioners to escape expensive retirement in the UK

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel 2 inspires pensioners to escape expensive retirement in the UK

by Georgina France

According to a recent Prudential survey, the high cost of living in the UK and declining pension pots mean that some 17% of those planning to retire this year will have debts outstanding.

  • The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel 2 currently being filmed in India
  • Sequel features stellar 50+ cast of Maggie Smith, Judi Dench, Bill Nighy and now Richard Gere
  • 17% of those in UK planning to retire this year will have debts outstanding (Prudential) 

These findings are leading more and more UK pensioners and those aching retirement age to ask: can retirement be outsourced to cut costs?

This concept is the premise of “The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel 2”, the sequel to the hilarious but poignant 2011 British comedy-drama film of the same name.

Currently being filmed in India, this much anticipated second outing of the stellar 50+ cast which includes Maggie Smith, Judi Dench, Bill Nighy and now Richard Gere, tells the story of a group of pensioners who move to an affordable retirement hotel in India to escape the crippling cost of old age, where they grow to appreciate adventure in their golden years.

Throughout the movie, the guests address society’s assumptions of old age and tackle elderly stereotypes, making decisions that help them learn more about life as a retired individual whilst also finding ways to live their lives to the full.

The Villages Group – Rainbow, France’s first gay active living village for the over 50s, offers retirees precisely this kind of chance to find adventure before dementia, with like-minded retirees from the LGBT community coming together in the serene location of the Languedoc-Roussillon, South West France. Danny Silver, Founding Manager comments,

“The British over 50’s LGBT market is booming and it is important that their specific needs for housing are not only recognised but met. With isolation and loneliness real challenges for older LGBT people, we at The Villages Group – Rainbow believe that community living villages are the way forward. We provide one level eco homes with on-site services and amenities that encourage an active, happy and healthy lifestyle with like-minded individuals.”

Indeed with increasing numbers of people looking to move abroad for their golden years in search of lower living costs and a better quality of life, France remains an extremely popular destination. It affords a wonderfully warm climate, relaxed lifestyle, stunning natural beauty and easy access to the UK – that’s if you ever want to go home!

For those keen to seek an active retirement under the Spanish sun becoming a Sun Rocker at Sun Park Living is also a popular choice. With a private gated community resort in southern Lanzarote, Sun Park Living offers an exclusive retirement lifestyle for those who wish to remain active but in a cheaper and decidedly warmer environment than the UK.

Residents at the resort are fondly known as Sun Rockers, hinting at the thirst for life that has driven them to expect more from their retirement. Gil Summers, Founding Manager comments,

“There’s a profound and palpable sense of community, friendship, camaraderie and family, that ties everyone and everything together here. Sun Park Living clearly fills a void in people’s lives, which is evident through everyone’s daily attendance resident-run social groups and activities, making every minute count whilst they are together.”

Indeed, the sense of community spirit is a huge draw to retirees looking for a lifestyle change. Of course the warm climate, flavourful local cuisine and fantastic culture all serve to make the experience even more rewarding – and all of this in light of the resort offering affordable rental apartments, for short or long term, for a fraction of the usual cost of retirement properties in the UK.

However, much like The Villages Group – Rainbow, the real currency at Sun Park Living is the residents themselves and their dream to live every moment to the full.

The Villages Group Rainbow provide the alternative to the rising cost of living for the over 55sLGBT community

by Georgina France

In spite of the typical monthly income of British over-55s reaching £1,545 in January 2014 – the highest figure seen by Aviva in the 4 years since the insurance giant began tracking this data, it seems that many are still experiencing money worries.

  • Income gains since December 2012 outweighed by 9% increase in over-55s’ typical monthly expenditure (Aviva Retirement Report Jan 2014)
  • Payments on fuel and electricity costs rise by 5% in the last 12 months
  • The Villages Group Rainbow enables retirees to enjoy their golden years affordably.

Indeed, income gains since December 2012 have been outweighed by a 9% increase in over-55s’ typical monthly expenditure over the same period according to the Aviva Retirement Report (Jan 2014). Their extra outgoings add up to £116 a month or £1,392 a year – equivalent to a whole month’s worth of spending!

Further data from Aviva has shown that the typical housing costs (including mortgage or rent) have increased the most since December 2012 – by £24 a month – while over-55s’ typical monthly food bill has gone up by £23.

With payments on fuel and electricity costs also rising by 5% in the last 12 months, it means the typical British over-55 is putting an extra £53 a month towards the cost of food, housing and energy than they were a year ago.

Danny Silver, Managing Founder of The Villages Group Rainbow, comments,

“Funding retirement is tough for many with the added pressure of bill increases in almost every sector throughout 2013. With a growing number of British over-55’s struggling to cope financially, it is no surprise that innovative “active living” Villages offering a low weekly living cost are proving increasingly popular.

“The Villages Group Rainbow in the heart of south-west France would benefit any retirees looking for a way to enjoy their golden years without money worries. For just £40 per maison per week including management, maintenance, property taxes, weekly maid service of your villa, plus all on-site activities, you can live in the heart of the Languedoc-Roussillon.

“Indeed when it comes to the day-to-day cost of living, it’s a well-known fact that food and wine in France can be bought so much cheaper than in the UK making the euros go much further than the pounds!”

So for those approaching their golden years and contemplating a move overseas, the Languedoc-Roussillon region in France is a natural choice. Boasting a superb climate, stunning countryside and a relaxed lifestyle as well as being regarded as one of the best places in the world to retire to, it is no wonder the Languedoc is top choice for many British and European active retirees.

It is for just these reasons that The Villages Group Rainbow has decided to develop Europe’s first active living resort ‘Village’ for the LGBT community over 50 to enjoy at the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Canal du Midi.

The Villages Group Rainbow will provide a village community of around 107 villas on the banks of the Canal du Midi, one of Europe’s longest and widest canal systems.  This village site will afford full on-site amenities including tennis courts, indoor pool, Jacuzzis, saunas, and gymnasium not forgetting great entertainment programmes, perfect for living an active and happy life within a community of like-minded individuals.

Adventure before Dementia: The future of retirement

Adventure before Dementia: The future of retirement

by Georgina France

Have you in inadvertently been putting the cornflakes in the fridge and the milk in the cupboard lately? This may be an inkling that life is getting a little mundane, consisting of boring routines, lack of stimulation and predictability.

According to research by the World Alzheimer’s Reports, 44 million people are now thought to be living with dementia with sufferers predicted to reach 76 million in 2030 and a staggering 135 million by 2050.

Are you thinking it’s time to make a change to your everyday living? Is it just possible, (and recommended!), that a change to an “active” lifestyle in retirement will stimulate the grey matter and give you that new lease of life you have been searching for!

Danny Silver, Managing Founder of The Villages Group Rainbow, Europe’s first active retirement village for the LGBT community nestled in the heart of south west France comments,

“In the next decade we can expect dramatic changes in the world around us as baby boomers emerge as seniors and active living and maintaining a healthy lifestyle will be top of their wish list. In fact these 21st century seniors are already creating their own ‘age’ between retirement and dotage, the era of adventure before dementia!”

Danny and his team at The Villages Group Rainbow have fully embraced the “adventure before dementia” ethos by creating active living Villages in France for the over 50’s that provide services and amenities to encourage an active, happy and healthy lifestyle focussed around a strong community of like-minded individuals.

Indeed, The Villages Group Rainbow, now under construction, will provide a lifestyle that will be highly attractive to active 50+ LGBT individuals who want to live their lives to the full in one of the top ten expat countries in the world, one that is home to the world´s largest single wine-producing region, over 300 days of sunshine per annum and a coastline that stretches all the way from the Camargue down to the Spanish border, the southern Languedoc-Roussillon region has got plenty going for it.

Retirement living the hot topic at this year’s Leisure Real Estate Summit

Retirement living the hot topic at this year’s Leisure Real Estate Summit

by Georgina France

With 19% of the UK’s population set to be pensioners by 2021, it is no wonder that retirement living and the provision of accommodation for older generations is

the hot topic at this year’s Leisure Real Estate Summit.

After its highly successful inaugural event last year, the 2014 Leisure Real Estate Summit will return to London on Thursday 27th February with sessions split between two separate areas covering leisure real estate and a vacation rental 101.

One session in particular, “Silver dollars and property for passport – the retirement market and residency” is already proving especially popular.

Moderated by Chris Nye, Editor of OPP Magazine, this brand new panel session held at 14.45 at The Montcalm Hotel, Marble Arch, will examine how property is aimed at these rapidly growing demographic groups and evolving to keep up with demand and lifestyle trends.

Sharing his insight into Active Retirement Living, Gil Summers, Founder of ´Summers Villages´, dedicated short & long stay resorts for the over 50s, will be joining the panel.

Piers Brown, Founder and Organiser of the Leisure Real Estate Summit, comments,

“Much of Europe’s wealth is currently in the hands of the older generation and there is a real shortage of quality leisure resort developments catering to this growing demographic. We´re delighted to welcome Gil as a true innovator within the sector to the conference.”

Joining Gil on the panel will also be Danny Silver, Managing Founder of The Villages Group who will share his experience of creating active living retirement resorts in France and the first to welcome the LGBT community.

Designed to provide hotel and other leisure real estate asset owners, asset managers and investors from all over the world with new and complementary strategies to create real value, identifying routes to investment in order to release the potential of UK and international assets, the Leisure Real Estate Summit is the must-attend event for 2014.

Investors pursue senior housing as The Villages Group – Rainbow offer alternative to lack of supply

by Georgina France
The UK’s senior population is forecast to rise by 9.6 million in 25 years according to the Office of National Statistics with demand for age specific accommodation, in particular for the mature LGBT community, swamping what little stock is currently being offered.
With this imbalance in mind, developers and investors alike are beginning to prick up their ears, not just in the UK but across Europe, as The Villages Group – Rainbow was given the green light to build Europe’s first active gay retirement village in France this August, opening the floodgates for eager retirees looking for housing to suit their needs.
Indeed, results from a fourth-quarter survey conducted by National Real Estate Investor and Senior Housing Global Advisors Inc. show that industry players expect developers to add more retirement accommodation projects to the pipeline in 2014.
Danny Silver, Founding Director of , Europe’s first active retirement village for the LGBT community nestled in the heart of south west France comments,
“The British over 50’s LGBT market provides a great opportunity for growth and it is important that their demands for housing are recognised. With people now living longer and healthier lives most entering their ‘third age’ can expect to live well into their late 80s which means that considerable strain will be placed on the UK housing stock.”
With more and more retirees looking to jump ship and look overseas for a retirement property, France remains a popular destination affording a wonderfully warm climate, relaxed lifestyle, stunning natural beauty and easy access to the UK. According to the Rightmove Overseas Consumer Survey 2013, retirees continue to dominate the market with France ranked as the number one country to purchase a second home.
Silver continues,
“With these compelling reasons in mind, we chose France as the location for The Villages Group – Rainbow active living resorts. Providing a lifestyle that will best reflect the interests of its residents, the 50+ LBGT village community will allow residents to live their lives to the full in one of the top ten expat countries in the world (HSBC’S Expat Explorer 2013).”
The Villages Group – Rainbow in France offers a range of amenities and services suitable for those in their active ‘third age’. There will be plenty of engaging on-site entertainment choices for a fulfilling active social life as well as numerous options for physical fitness and well-being including tennis courts, indoor swimming pool, gymnasium and saunas.
These one level, eco-friendly village properties are proving to be a great success offering a fresh alternative and unique lifestyle choice for the active over 50´s LGBT community seeking the perfect property abroad from just €236,000. Construction starts in January?

“I’m a pensioner, get me out of here!” Half of over 50’s considering leaving the UK

by Georgina France

Today’s pensioners may not have to endure daily Bush Tucker trials to top up their shopping baskets but for almost 70% of people surveyed by the deVere Group, cost of living is the primary concern about retiring in the UK.

  • Cost of living is primary concern about retiring in the UK for over 50’s (deVere Group)
  • 49.5% have ‘seriously considered’, ‘are thinking about’, or ‘would be tempted’ to live overseas during retirement
  • 65% of overseas second home buyers are aged 45-64 (Rightmove Overseas)

According the results of a recent survey of 1,231 over 50’s questioned by the international financial consultancy, cost of living is the primary motivation for quitting Britain with almost half (49.5%) stating that they have ‘seriously considered’, ‘are thinking about’, or ‘would be tempted’ to live overseas during retirement.

Other reasons cited for relocating to foreign shores included the standard of care for the elderly, quality of life and, not unexpectedly, the weather.

Gil Summers, Co-Founder of Sun Park Living, a private gated community resort exclusively for those who are retired and active, located on the Canary Island of Lanzarote, comments,

“The rising cost of living in the UK is a major driver for many of our guests to come and stay at Sun Park Living. It can be considerably cheaper for retirees to stay long term, for up to 6 months or beyond, here in Lanzarote than at home in the UK as all fuel and energy costs are included which for many pensioners is becoming an ever increasing worry.”

In terms of locations, Spain was named the top choice for relocating retirees with 27.9% of those surveyed by the deVere Group stating the south European destination, well-known for its year round mild climate, lower cost of living and positive attitude towards the elderly.

Indeed it would seem that staying close to the UK in retirement is important with France and Italy named second and third destinations of choice according to 12.6% and 7.9% of respondents respectively.

Danny Silver, Founder of The Villages Group – Rainbow, an active retirement community in south-west France aimed at the Lesbian-Gay-Bisexual-Transgender (LGBT) community, comments,

“As a man in my 60’s, originally from London but resident in France for nearly 20 years now, whose golden years are approaching, I would never even consider moving back to the UK. The quality of life here in France is far superior is almost every way to the UK; the weather, the culture, the gastronomy, the cost of living, it all outweighs life across the Channel.

“I am a member of the fabled ‘baby boomer’ generation who are finding it increasingly difficult to maintain a high standard of living in the UK with austerity measures pinching pensioners even in spite of government promises. That is exactly the reason why we created The Villages Group – Rainbow, a community of like-minded retired but active individuals looking for a better quality of life in France.”

Fresh data from the Rightmove Overseas (September) 2013 Consumer Survey confirms this trend with almost two-thirds, 65%, of those looking to buy a second home overseas aged between 45 and 64 years. Once again Spain and France topped the charts in terms of second home and immigration destinations with more than half (51%) looking to buy a property in the countryside.

On the market:
One level, eco-friendly homes at The Villages Group – Rainbow, situated in the charming Languedoc-Roussillon region of France, are available for just €236,000. Already 20% sold, interest in the gated community complete with tennis courts, indoor swimming pool, gymnasium, saunas and quality entertainment programmes is high with buyers from all over the world.

Loneliness: How to avoid the dark side of retirement

by Georgina France

As we get older, we are more likely to suffer illness and disability which can prevent us from getting out and about. Individual’s social networks often shrink due to life-changing events such as retirement and / or bereavement which can increase the risk of becoming chronically lonely.

According to the Campaign to End Loneliness, there are 800,000 people in England who are chronically lonely. Some 5 million people say television is their main form of company!

  • 800,000 people in England suffer from chronic loneliness (Campaign to End Loneliness)
  • With lack of kin-based social support, friendships become crucial social connections for many LGBT elders
  • The Villages Group – Rainbow offers a solution to end loneliness in retirement

Whether an older adult will enjoy a happy and satisfying retirement or not are questions of growing concern as thousands of baby boomers grow older.

Danny Silver, Managing Founder of The Villages Group – Rainbow, Europe’s first active LGBT retirement village for the over 50s comments,

“As baby boomers enter their retirement years, the services geared toward elder needs will have to adapt to accommodate them. Any demographic as large as the boomer generation will inevitably include a significant LGBT contingent so services for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender seniors will also need to adapt or develop to combat isolation in retirement.

“Here at The Villages Group – Rainbow we are extremely conscious of the need to provide the kind of environment that has not presently been available to the LGBT community across Europe. Because of the lack of kin-based social support, friendships become crucial social connections for many LGBT elders and we have made sure to provide a LGBT friendly village environment for like-minded individuals with daily activities to suit all, combatting isolation and keeping both body and mind motivated.”

Indeed, The Villages Group – Rainbow in France offers a range of amenities and services suitable for those in their active ‘third age’. Here a community of friends can mingle, embark on fun and engaging on-site entertainment choices for an active life as well as numerous options for physical fitness and well-being including tennis courts, indoor swimming pool, gymnasium, saunas and quality entertainment programmes.

These properties are proving to be a great success with already over 20% sold in just a couple of months, offering a fresh alternative and unique lifestyle choice for the active over 50´s LGBT community seeking the perfect life abroad from just €236,000.

Is money the root of all happiness? Lack of funds is biggest worry for 55-65 year old Brits

by Georgina France
According to Aviva’s latest Real Retirement Report (Autumn 2013), having enough money to live comfortably emerges as the single most important factor for over a quarter of Britons aged 55-65 years old (27%) – more so than sharing retirement with a partner (17%), a happy family life (12%) or devoting more time to hobbies and interests (3%).

•27% of 55-65 year old Brits worry about having enough to live comfortably (Aviva RRR 2013)
•Over half of 55’s see freedom from stress as most important benefit of financial stability in later life 
Indeed, the importance of being able to afford to live comfortably in retirement seems to transcend age, gender and income differences as it is the second most pressing priority after good health for both sexes and all three age groups over 55 consulted in the Aviva Report – regardless of their actual income.
Interestingly, a higher proportion of the younger demographic prioritise finances than any other age group – suggesting the recession and savings squeeze has increased the importance of money for those currently approaching retirement.
Danny Silver, Managing Founder of The Villages Group – Rainbow, Europe’s first gay friendly active retirement village nestled in the heart of South West France comments,

“The rising cost of living on a limited pension income is pressurising many baby boomers to consider how they can reduce their outgoings.

“Downsizing and releasing equity in order to fund retirement presents an obvious choice for many as bricks and mortar are often an individual’s largest and most secure financial asset. This is especially true for those who have remained in the same home for a good number of years during which the property market has boomed, resulting in the accumulation of a large amount of equity.”

But what and where to downsize to?

Mr Silver continues,
“Traditionally retirees have remained in the local area, near to friends and family but now with advances in communications technology and indeed transportation, more and more are looking to move abroad. Relocating in retirement can be a rejuvenating and life-affirming experience, especially when you can save money, meet new people and visit new places!

“This is where living at The Villages Group – Rainbow would benefit any retirees looking for a way to enjoy their golden years without money worries. For just £40 a week per person including all management fees, property tax, maintenance charges and on-activities you can live in the heart of the Languedoc-Roussillon region of South West France, where village life is tranquil and a great day out can be had in the seemingly endless countryside with many a fete, art exhibition or concert in the summer months which will cost you absolutely nothing!”

So what are you waiting for? Contact The Villages Group – Rainbow today to discuss how this unique community can provide the answer to finding the perfect property for your retirement.

The ‘Pink Pound’ or the ‘Dorothy Dollar’ as it is known in America is an idiom used to describe the spending power of the gay economy estimated to be worth a staggering £6 billion annually across the UK and Ireland and a whopping €350 billion in America yet not one property developer in Europe has cashed in on the lucrative LGBT baby boomer market approaching retirement…until now.
