Join our retirement community for the Burnham Waters Family Day – 19th July 2026
At Burnham Waters, we believe retirement living should be about more than simply finding a beautiful home. It is about becoming part of a welcoming retirement community, enjoying new experiences and creating lasting memories with family and friends.
That is why we are delighted to invite residents, our current home buyers and prospective purchasers to our Burnham Waters Family Day on Sunday 19th July from 10am to 3pm.
This free event promises a relaxed and enjoyable day for all ages, offering a fantastic opportunity to experience the unique community spirit that makes Burnham Waters such a special place to live.
A day for residents, buyers and visitors
Whether you already call Burnham Waters home, have reserved one of our retirement bungalows or are simply curious about retirement living in our beautiful Essex village, our Family Day is open to everyone.
The event has been designed to bring people together in a fun and informal setting. It is a chance to meet current residents, spend time with neighbours, explore the development and enjoy a variety of complimentary food and entertainment.
For those considering a move to Burnham Waters and our new retirement community, there is no better way to gain an insight into life here. You will have the opportunity to experience the warm and welcoming atmosphere first-hand while discovering everything our growing community has to offer.
Food and entertainment for all
Visitors can enjoy complimentary food and refreshments, providing the perfect opportunity to relax, socialise and enjoy time with friends, family and fellow guests.
At Burnham Waters we are proud of the welcoming retirement community we are building here, and this event is very much a celebration of all that has been achieved. We are encouraging residents and prospective buyers to bring their families – including their grandchildren, along to enjoy the day and to get a true sense of what life at Burnham Waters has to offer.
For younger visitors, there will be a dedicated children's entertainer on site between 11am and 1pm. Activities will include:
• Face painting
• Magic shows
• Balloon modelling
From colourful creations to magical surprises, there will be plenty to keep children entertained while adults enjoy the surroundings and social atmosphere.
We know that many residents enjoy having children and grandchildren visit, and the Family Day reflects the importance of family life within the Burnham Waters community.
Experience retirement community living at Burnham Waters
One of the things that makes our retirement village at Burnham Waters unique is the strong sense of community that continues to grow across the development.
Ian Holloway, Project Director at Burnham Waters, said: “Many people considering retirement living are looking for more than just a property. They are searching for a lifestyle that offers companionship, opportunities to socialise and the reassurance of being part of a like-minded community.
“The Burnham Waters Family Day offers a wonderful opportunity to see this in action.
“Throughout the event, guests will be able to meet existing residents and hear first-hand about their experiences of living at Burnham Waters. Conversations often reveal what brochures and websites cannot fully capture, from the friendships that have been formed to the regular activities and social events that take place throughout the year.”
Visitors will quickly discover that Burnham Waters is a place where people can enjoy their independence while also benefiting from a welcoming and supportive environment.
Show homes will be open to explore
If you are considering a move to one of our retirement bungalows at Burnham Waters, the Family Day also provides an excellent opportunity to view the beautifully designed homes on offer here.
The Sales and Marketing Suite will be open throughout the event, with members of the team available to answer questions about the development, available properties and the purchasing process.
Guests will also be able to tour the show homes and experience the quality, space and thoughtful design that have become hallmarks of Burnham Waters.
Designed exclusively for the over 55s, the homes combine modern living with practicality and comfort. Spacious layouts, energy-efficient features and carefully considered details help create homes that are both stylish and future-ready.
Whether you are actively looking to move or simply exploring your options for the future, viewing the homes in person can provide valuable inspiration and insight.
Discover everything that Burnham Waters has to offer
Set within the beautiful Essex countryside on the edge of Burnham-on-Crouch, Burnham Waters is a new retirement community, which has been created to support active, independent and fulfilling retirement living.
The village has been carefully designed to bring together quality homes, attractive green spaces, planned amenities and opportunities for residents to connect with one another.
