LIFESTYLE, ACTIVITIES & GARDENS
Imagine waking up every morning to a serene environment where the worries of endless property maintenance are a thing of the past. At Beolite Village, we understand that downsizing can be liberating, and we're here to help your transition to a more relaxed way of life.

Whether it's joining a fitness class, participating in a creative workshop, or simply sharing a cup of tea with a neighbour, there's a range of activities for you to participate in.

And when it comes to amenities and services, Beolite has you covered. From community veggie gardens to chooks, to our hobby shed & repair centre and multipurpose community centre, we've thoughtfully curated every aspect of village life to ensure your comfort and convenience.

FACILITIES
At the hub of Beolite Village is our wonderful Scobie & Claire Mackinnon Community Centre, which was built for all of our residents to enjoy. The centre is where activities and get togethers are held and residents can choose to be involved as much or as little as they desire. You can also take full advantage of the resident's garden and shed, hobbies and repair shed, croquet lawn and petanque court.
ACTIVITIES
Indulge in a good book from the library, play indoor bowls or table tennis, billiards, join in around the pianola, watch a movie on the big screen or simply enjoy a friendly chat over a cuppa. Overlooking the croquet lawn and pétanque court, the Centre boasts a well-appointed kitchen. Residents also have super easy access to the Mansfield Golf Club, with bar and restaurant, just across the road. View our community centre activity timetable here >

WHO WAS 'BEOLITE'
The village was named in honour of Beolite, who was a remarkable indigenous leader of the Taungurung (Upper Goulburn) people. Beolite displayed great leadership and made a significant contribution to the High Country. The land around was also called Beolite, his eldest son was named Barwite and his lubra was Delatite.
