Resident Dining
Peninsula Villages is pleased to have an experienced in-house chef who prepares a seasonal menu for residents within our ageing in place facilities. Our ethos for our menus is based on providing flavoursome, nutritious meals that foster an enjoyment of food by our residents. All meals are cooked on site and prepared daily.
Meals include breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert, with optional sweets after lunch. Additional snacks, fruit, tea and coffee is also available to the residents throughout our facilities.
All menus are prepared and reviewed by our consultant dietitian and meals are adapted for residents changing needs, allergies or requirements. We also have specific dishes that are gluten free, vegetarian or dairy free.

Lifestyle Your Life, Your Choice, Our Community
Located on the Central Coast and in Lake Macquarie, Peninsula Villages’ retirement communities boast a laidback lifestyle with proximity to stunning coastal surroundings and the convenience of Village living.
Across all of our facilities, we promote variety, inclusivity and choice, encouraging residents to participate in activities, events and excursions that interest them.
Our excursions cover the Central Coast, Sydney and Newcastle with destinations including Avoca Beach Picture Theatre, Gosford Race Club, Newcastle Civic Centre and the Sydney Entertainment Centre. We also have a weekly shopping trip to local centres on the Coast and trips to a variety of cafes, restaurants and clubs.
Within our Independent Living communities, events and activities are led by staff and residents, with book clubs, exercise classes, bowling clubs and excursion groups being favourites amongst residents. At Peninsula Village, we also have a wheelchair accessible pool and an undercover bowling green available for residents to enjoy.
