Aged Care Services and Facilities
Nestled among leafy trees, manicured lawns and beautiful gardens, Castledare Village offers more than just a place to live - it’s a supportive, welcoming community co-located with a Catholic Homes Residential Care home.
Residents can use the shared dining and living spaces within the aged care residence and the centrally located community centre at the heart of the village. Whether it’s movie nights, carpet bowls, live concerts, a game of pool or one of the many social gatherings, you’re free to join in as much or as little as you like.
Our dedicated and compassionate retirement living team is always here if you need a helping hand with daily tasks. Catholic Homes’ Home Care services are also available for those looking for extra support, whether it’s assistance with your health, your lifestyle or transport needs.
At Castledare Village, you’ll find independence, connection and care - everything you need to enjoy the retirement lifestyle you deserve.

Our Retirement Village FAQs
Who owns and manages the retirement villas?
Catholic Homes owns and operates four independent living villages, as well as residential aged care and home care services. The organisation is an incorporated association (est. 1965) and a registered charitable institution.
Catholic Homes is governed by its Board and managed by a highly experienced executive team with a broad range of qualifications and expertise including business, nursing and health services, accounting and community development.
Do I own the Catholic Homes retirement villa?
Residents don’t own the asset but may benefit from any growth in its value when their villa is “sold”.
When you purchase a lease for life villa, your payment means that when there is capital growth on the property upon re-sale, you share in this growth. This is sometimes called a “capital share lease” arrangement.
Under the Independent Living Village Agreement, residents receive the benefit of a proportion of capital growth, subject to conditions, upon re-leasing. This does vary between villages and organisations and you should check to see if an agreement allows you to benefit from capital growth
What age does the oldest resident of a couple have to be to live in a Catholic Homes retirement village?
To qualify for residency, at least one resident in a villa must be aged 55 years or older.
All residents should be capable of independent living in the village.
Can I have a pet at a Catholic Homes Retirement Village?
Pets may be permitted at the discretion of Catholic Homes and must be authorised in writing.
Incoming residents must abide by and sign a Pet Agreement Form, as your pet should not intrude on your neighbour’s amenity. Assistance and guide dogs are permitted.
