Honeysuckle and Jasmine Court Apartments

With 54 one and two bedroomed apartments to choose from, apartment living at Belong Wigan gives you the chance to be part of a vibrant community within the wider village. These are arranged in two buildings with the village gardens providing a lovely focal point and space where residents can indulge in a spot of bowling, enjoy summer barbecues or simply relax and enjoy the outdoors.

Honeysuckle Court and Jasmine Court are just steps away from our village centre facilities, ensuring the freedom to join in as much or as little of village life as residents choose. The beauty of living in a Belong apartment is the accessibility of the village centre with its vibrant events and activities programme, a range of facilities and the security of knowing that help is always on hand if you need it.

Peace of Mind

All apartment tenants have access to a daily checking service and 24-hour emergency response, both included within the community fee.

As the building includes a 24-hour care setting, the emergency response is provided by Belong’s own on-site staff team rather than relying on calling out to a cover agency for this service.

High-quality design

Belong apartments are designed by leading architects for older people’s settings and built to the highest standards to meet the needs of our residents. Features include extra-wide corridors and doorways, and bathrooms are fully accessible to wheelchair users, with easy-to-open doors and colour contrast furnishings to enhance perceptibility.

From our wet-room shower design to our easy-to-reach plug and light sockets, every detail has been considered. Each apartment contains an access system for controlling the entry of visitors, including a two-way audio entry phone. Wiring is pre-installed for digital and satellite television, with broadband 'hotspot' facilities available throughout the village
