<\/a>Bob and Nina are both homeowners at the village.<\/p>\nAnd from the moment that Bob spotted Nina at the onsite Greenhouse restaurant romance blossomed.<\/p>\n
It has led to them enjoying regular lunch and dinner dates, romantic walks in the communal gardens and surrounding countryside, as well as meeting up with other Wadswick Green homeowners at the many social events held at the village.<\/p>\n
It seems fate also played a part in their happy union when, unbeknown to them, they had both already booked the same cruise holiday to Iceland.<\/p>\n
It was onboard their second cruise at Christmas that Bob says he knew that Nina was the one for him.<\/p>\n
He decided to seal their love with a romantic proposal on New Years Eve and presented her with a beautiful diamond ring.<\/p>\n
On meeting Nina, Bob says: \u201cIf it wasn\u2019t for living at Wadswick Green, I would never have met Nina. I first saw her across The Greenhouse restaurant, and I decided to go and introduce myself.<\/p>\n
“Living at Wadswick Green has made it so easy for us to get to know each other better and we now enjoy many social activities in the village together, we\u2019ve even taken up swimming together several times a week and Nina has also joined the Quiz team that I’m a member of, who have all made her very welcome. It’s really very friendly and easy to socialise here.”<\/p>\n
Bob says sparks flew quite literally when he proposed: \u201cWe were on board the cruise ship which was moored just outside Madeira watching the fireworks from afar, and at the stroke of midnight I proposed. Nina said Yes, and then suddenly, the whole sky erupted with the most magnificent firework display, it was a very special moment.\u201d<\/p>\n
The couple couldn\u2019t wait to celebrate and emailed ahead to the village team to announce the happy news and to send invitations to fellow residents to join them for a party a few weeks later.<\/p>\n
Speaking about the engagement party Bob says: \u201cIt was a great occasion, the village team were so helpful, and helped us to organise the perfect Cheese and Wine party in The Greenhouse, it was fantastic to celebrate with all our friends and family in the village.”<\/p>\n
Keith Turnbull, Village Manager at Wadswick Green commented: \u201cIt is humbling for our team to be involved in supporting the celebration of such a special occasion. I think it\u2019s fantastic that Bob and Nina\u2019s relationship has bloomed whilst living in our village and I know that all our staff and residents wish them all the best for their future together.\u201d<\/p>\n
He continued: \u201cIt just goes to show that it\u2019s possible to find love at any age, and that living in a vibrant and friendly community with similar aged people, can open opportunities for making connections, finding companionship and fulfilling relationships in later years. \u201c<\/p>\n
The happy couple are currently considering wedding options, but for now, are enjoying their engagement and life together at Wadswick Green.<\/p>\n
