Find a retirement property

“Everything is all sorted out for you here, there’s a lovely Lodge Manager, Starr, she looks after us all and all the people who live here are so friendly. We all get on, we all have different interests and hobbies that we share and there is always something going on at the Lodge. I’m right by everything I need, at first, the idea of not relying on a car felt like a big adjustment, but it didn’t take long for Roy to see the benefits, “I started to feel less confident behind the wheel as I got older, but moving to Cleves Lodge meant I could give up my car and still have easy access to everything I need. I don’t need a car anymore, if I need to go further out, I just use the dial-a-bus and it takes me exactly where I want to go for my shopping. It’s all very convenient!”

"I’m settling in well and getting to know my new neighbours, who are all very friendly and welcoming. One great thing about my new apartment is that I spend less time doing household chores and more time having fun. My family are glad I’ve made the move, as they know I’m safe and happy here. Churchill’s downsizing advisers and our Sales Executive Hilary were such a great help with the move, I couldn’t have done it without them!"

"Moving to Liberty Lodge is an amazing opportunity to hit life’s reset button and to make daily life more comfortable and manageable in later life. An opportunity to let go of the troublesome maintenance and high costs of running a house and spend more time doing what you want to do rather than what you have to do. We would also like to thank our Solicitors and Britannia. They did an amazing job and all were organised by Gemma at Churchill Living."

“Our social life is now busier than ever. There’s always something going on, and we don’t even have to leave the building! I have plenty of fun things planned to celebrate my milestone birthday, and I’m looking forward to sharing it with my new friends.”

“I moved here from a nearby village, mainly because of the location. It’s so well placed, close to the town centre so everything I need is nearby. It suits my needs and I’m very happy here.”

“I’ve been lucky enough to travel most of the world and what I love about Churchill is that it’s genuinely easy to just lock up and leave, knowing everything will be just as I left it when I return. I am closer to my family, I’ve got the freedom to travel when I want, and a welcoming home to return to. What more could you ask for?”

“The service charge is very reasonable considering all the things it pays for, we get very good value for money and we can afford it because we downsized from a four bedroom house. The building and everything in it is excellent quality, it’s all kept clean and tidy and well maintained. Plus we’re well looked after by the lovely Churchill staff.”

"My one-bedroom apartment works so well for me. It's just the right size, and the low-maintenance aspect has truly freed up my time to enjoy life. It felt quite daunting downsizing from a three-storey home to a one-bedroom apartment, but Churchill’s Senior Move scheme was invaluable."

“Since moving to Beck Lodge my health is so much better and I’m able to live independently. I’m enjoying life again!”

“I couldn’t have afforded the move without Homewise. I didn’t want to use up all my savings as I enjoy going on holidays. Using Homewise meant I could keep my savings and still enjoy a nice new apartment and a more sociable lifestyle with people around me, which is just what I needed.”
