Retirement today is about embracing a lifestyle filled with freedom, connection, and opportunity.
At La Dimora Retirement Resort in Hidden Valley, residents enjoy a unique blend of independence, luxury, and community, all set within a picturesque natural environment. Downsizing here doesn’t mean sacrificing—it means upgrading your lifestyle.
Located just 10 minutes south of Kilmore, La Dimora is surrounded by the serene beauty of Hidden Valley’s rolling hills and open countryside.
New residents Sue and Chris, who recently relocated from Queensland, have quickly embraced everything La Dimora has to offer.
“We spent around 12 months researching retirement options across Victoria and interstate, weighing the pros and cons of each. After visiting La Dimora in March 2024, we made our decision within four weeks. We returned weekly to meet the residents, tour the homes, and explore the facilities—and each visit reaffirmed that this was the right move for us.”
At the heart of the community is the stunning Clubhouse, home to a wide range of amenities designed to enrich daily life. Residents enjoy The Grove Bar & Bistro, an 18-hole championship golf course, a fully equipped gym, group fitness classes, a 20-meter indoor heated pool, and courts for tennis, lawn bowls, and pickleball.
“We’ve made the most of what’s on offer,” says Sue. “From the gym and golf course to the restaurant and members’ arena—it’s all within walking distance. We’ve truly found a community here, with friends on every street and activities happening regularly. Whether it’s monthly dinners, craft groups, the men’s group, exercise classes, or Bingo—there’s always something to get involved in. Or we can simply enjoy quiet time in our beautiful home, soaking in the views from our alfresco.”
Sue’s advice to others considering retirement living?
“Come and experience it for yourself. Talk to the residents, enjoy a meal at The Grove, play a round of golf, or take a walk through the pool and gym. La Dimora is a hidden gem ready to welcome you.”
