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 and the location has been carefully chosen to ensure that the post office, shops, chemist, doctor and bus and train services are just a short level walk away.

Directions

From the Topsham office of Wilkinson Grant, turn left and walk along Fore Street. Turn right at the old Fire Station by Matthews Hall and follow the footpath across the car park and past the swimming pool. Armada Court is directly in front, with number 25 being situated on the far left hand side.
