LEARN MOREOur retirement villages offer a range of care options - not as an add-on, but woven into the fabric of our villages.
Nellie Melba Village offers a range of aged-care options including residential aged care (low care and high care) and specialist dementia care. Like all aspects of our villages, we constantly look for ways to improve both the aged care we provide and the innovation behind it. Aged care is customised using our myRyman care app and residents love the food in our seasonal Delicious menu, which is prepared fresh on site by village chefs.
Treat yourself to a pamper session in our hair and beauty salon or a sweet treat in the shop.
Lounge and dining areas provide spaces to relax and enjoy mealtimes. The food tastes great and the social interaction is good for the soul.
Tranquil indoor and outdoor spaces dedicated to our care residents allow you to relax and meet with family and friends.

Each Ryman village is named in honour of a Kiwi or Aussie trailblazer: Anthony Wilding, Lady Diana Isaac, Evelyn Page. They pushed further and set the bar high for others to aspire to. In creating communities that challenge the expectations of ageing, Ryman villages are also setting the bar high. They’re demonstrating that a retirement lifestyle brimming with new experiences, connections and fulfilment is something we should aspire to. Our Aussie and Kiwi namesakes represent the measure of inspiration, while Ryman villages represent the measure of retirement living.
Dame Nellie was born Helen Porter Mitchell. She was affectionately known as ‘Nellie’ as a child, then took the stage name ‘Melba’ as a nod to her hometown, Melbourne, when she entered the world of opera.
Nellie Melba was the first Australian to appear on the cover of Time magazine when she featured in the April 18, 1927 edition.
In 1915 Melba helped establish and finance a ‘mission’ kindergarten for the poor children of Richmond, Melbourne, even assisting in the running of the programs. The Dame Nellie Melba Kindergarten still exists today.
Melba’s death in 1931 was front page news around the world. Her funeral was attended by royal representations, politicians, religious leaders and high-ranking members of society. Thousands of mourners lined the streets from Collins St to Lilydale Cemetery to bid her a final farewell.
Her face has been on the front of Australian $100 note since 1996, when the paper note was discontinued and reissued on polymer. Sir John Monash is on the back of the note.
Melba worked tirelessly for the war effort, raising a staggering £100,000. She was made a Dame Commander of the British Empire in 1918 for her extraordinary fundraising efforts.
