About the village
Methven Central is in the heart of Methven, Canterbury, with everything you need on your doorstep - from a medical centre across the road to access to outdoor pursuits in this picturesque alpine village. We invite you to experience the warmth and community spirit at Methven Central, where we believe our older residents are at the heart of our community, central to everything going on. We invite you to view our retirement apartments which are available now to purchase. This independent living option will complement Methven Central Care Home set to open in mid 2025 to offer a continuum of care in your later years.
