Directions

Walking from the Topsham office, turn left. At the old fire station, cross over the road, passing Matthews Hall on your left and then the swimming pool on your right. Armada Court is directly ahead.

Situation

Perched on the banks of the River Exe Estuary it is hard to envisage a location better suited to retirement living than that of the historic port of Topsham. With a welcoming atmosphere, an active community and Exeter just 3 miles away, its nationwide renown is justly deserved. Armada Court is a small development sitting in the heart of Topsham's charming centre, bordered by the local bowling green. The location has been carefully chosen to ensure that the post office, shops, chemist, doctor and bus and train services are all within a relatively short, level walk away.
