Settlers Rest Retirement Village in Gonubie, Eastern Cape, is a sectional title retirement village established in 1998. It lies next to the older Settlers Retirement Village, established in 1988, and the two are run as separate schemes. According to the home's website, the two villages together cover 8 hectares with 126 homes of 80 to 140 square metres and 4 bachelor flats for rent. Between them the two villages have a community hall, a small library, a hairdressing salon, a swimming pool and an entertainment committee, and they sit in an eco-friendly wooded valley with a stream and a pond. The gates are access controlled and the perimeter is electronically secured. The village office is open from 09:00 to 12:00 on weekdays.
